Regional Politics: America in a Post-City Age

Regional Politics: America in a Post-City Age

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Savitch, H. V. / Vogel, Ronald K., PUBLISHER: Sage Publications (CA), Bringing together the thoughts of outstanding contributors, Regional Politics presents a comparative study on the emerging regional nature of local and urban politics. Recent studies tend to focus on the politics and power of internal cities or on suburban areas that have gained incredible strength in the past decade. However, this important volume explores how politics work in the extended metropolis or "functional city"--which includes and surrounds the urban core and whose economy, society, and politics are integrally joined. Contributors center on detailed case studies of 10 cities with a look at the development of regional patterns, an analysis of the impact regionalism has on urban politics, and an outline for an overall approach. The comprehensive and state-of-the-art expertise presented in this volume makes Regional Politics ideal for planners, policymakers, academics, researchers, and students in the areas of urban politics, state and local government, and public policy.

Somersault

A decade before the story opens, two men referred to as the Patron and Guide of manking were leaders of an influential religious movement. When a radical faction of their teaching and abandoned their followers. After ten years of silence, two men referred to as the Patron and Guide of mankind begin contacting their old followers and reaching out to the public. As Patron and a core of the faithful attempt to incorporate followers from the movement's past into a new vision for its future, conflicting agendas threaten the church's unity--or something far more dangerous. Ambitious and beautifully told, Somesault illuminates the spiritual searching of modern man that makes religious cults so compelling.)

The Life and Mind of John Dewey

The Life and Mind of John Dewey

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dykhuizen, George / Taylor, Harold, PUBLISHER: Southern Illinois University Press, Since Dewey's career and public ser-vices were even more extensive and varied than his writings, a knowledge of them is necessary for any adequate interpretation of his ideas and publi-cations. This big and important biog-raphy traces the events of Dewey's ninety-two years and provides the chronology on which future scholar-ship must build. By studying original source materials in Burlington and Charlotte, Vermont; Oil City, Pennsylvania; the University of Vermont; the Johns Hopkins Uni-versity; the University of Michigan; the University of Minnesota; the Univer-sity of Chicago; Columbia University; by combing newspapers, correspon-dence collections, institutional records, and particularly by establishing personal contact and communication with family members and colleagues, Pro-fessor Dykhuizen has been able to develop a comprehensive, minutely accurate, definitive portrait of John Dewey. Without point of view or thesis, the book systematically exam-ines the life and mind of the man often called the philosopher of American democracy.

Panzerjager: Tank Hunter

Panzerjager: Tank Hunter

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Averbeck, Bernhard / Folkestad, William B., PUBLISHER: Burd Street Press, Panzerjager: Tank Hunter follows young Bernhard Averbeck as he leaves home to fight on the Eastern and Western Fronts in World War II. The public and specialist alike will recognize that Averbeck's story of frustration and fear, along with the tenacity to survive three years of nonstop combat, are without parallel. Few books have recorded the experiences of the common German soldier on the Eastern Front. No book in English concerns German World War II antitank warfare, and none would compare with this true account of a German soldier fighting with various Panzerjager units between and on the Eastern Front and from to on the Western Front. German antitank units were the bane of Allied tankers. Averbeck supplies the reader with details of Panzerjager training, equipment, Panzerjager battle tactics, and personal observations of humor and sorrow that reveal in great detail one young man's life on the Third Reich's two fronts.

Bone Health and Osteoporosis

Bone Health and Osteoporosis

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: U S Department of Health and Human Servi / Us Public Health / Office of the Surgeon General, PUBLISHER: Imp, This first-ever Surgeon General's Report on bone health and osteoporosis illustrates the large burden that bone disease places on our Nation and its citizens. Like other chronic diseases that disproportionately affect the elderly, the prevalence of bone disease and fractures is projected to increase markedly as the population ages. If these predictions come true, bone disease and fractures will have a tremendous negative impact on the future well-being of Americans. But as this report makes clear, they need not come true; by working together we can change the picture of aging in America. Osteoporosis, fractures and other chronic diseases no longer should be thought of as an inevitable part of growing old. By focusing on prevention and lifestyle changes, including physical activity and nutrition, as well as early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, Americans can avoid much of the damaging impact of bone disease and other chronic diseases.

Prevention in General Practice

Prevention in General Practice

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fowler, Godfrey / Gray, J. A. / Anderson, Peter, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, Spectacular advances in therapeutic medicine have not diminished the need for prevention, and there is widespread acknowledgment that avoidance of disability and premature death often depends on prevention rather than cure. There is also recognition that family practice has a key role to play in this, because of the opportunities it provides for influencing the future well-being of large numbers of individuals. Since the first edition of this book was published, the scope for prevention has become more clearly defined, and the evidence for effectiveness better established. The second edition has therefore been completely rewritten. It assesses the evidence for prevention effectiveness in relation to the major causes of disability and premature death, describes what measures should be taken, and gives practical guidance on carrying them out. Although aimed primarily at family practitioners, this book will also be of value to medical students, public health professionals and policy makers.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Olenick, Richard / Apostol, Tom M. / Goodstein, David L., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, This important textbook is based on, though independent of, an educational TV series to be broadcast on public television in the United States. Its aim is to guide students and general readers to an understanding of how the physical world works; physics is presented as a human endeavour, with historical development forming a thread throughout the text. The prerequisites are minimal, only basic algebra and trigonometry since the necessary calculus is developed in the text, with physics providing the motivation. New concepts are introduced at the natural, logical point with many historical references to place physics in a social perspective. Many topics from twentieth-century physics are included, for example energy, low temperature physics, relativity and black holes. The book is attractively and profusely illustrated and will be welcomed by students and also by general readers for whom this will be a stimulating alternative to other, less-thorough treatments.

The New American Democracy

The New American Democracy

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fiorina, Morris P. / Peterson, Paul E. / Johnson, Bertram, PUBLISHER: Longman Publishing Group, With an emphasis on elections and their importance in the American political system, this groundbreaking offers a stimulating, analytical approach to American government and a unique perspective on contemporary politics. Noted scholars and teachers all, the authors propose in their text that politicians today are perpetually engaged in the election process-a "permanent campaign"-which has profoundly affected how our government functions today. The proliferation of public opinion polls, the growing influence of the Internet, the ubiquitous nature of the news media, and the increasingly important role of interest groups-all demonstrate that America is moving toward a more popular democracy and have blurred the lines between politicians campaigning and governing. The sixth edition of this prestigious text will have been brought completely up-to-date through the end of the George W. Bush administration and Presidential Election, by its publication. The alternate version of "The New American Democracy "includes the exact same coverage as the comprehensive version without the policy chapters.

Children During the Holocaust

Children During the Holocaust

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Heberer, Patricia / Tec, Nechama / Browning, Christopher R., PUBLISHER: Altamira Press, Children during the Holocaust, from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum's Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, tells the story of the Holocaust through the eyes, and fates, of its youngest victims. The ten chapters follow the arc of the persecutory policies of the Nazis and their sympathizers and the impact these measures had on Jewish children and adolescents-from the years leading to the war, to the roundups, deportations, and emigrations, to hidden life and death in the ghettos and concentration camps, and to liberation and coping in the wake of war. This volume examines the reactions of children to discrimination, the loss of livelihood in Jewish homes, and the public humiliation at the hands of fellow citizens and explores the ways in which children's experiences paralleled and diverged from their adult counterparts. Additional chapters reflect upon the role of non-Jewish children as victims, perpetrators, and bystanders during World War II. Offering a collection of personal letters, diaries, court testimonies, government documents, military reports, speeches, newspapers, photographs, and artwork, Children during the Holocaust highlights the diversity of children's experiences during the nightmare years of the Holocaust.

Environmental Contaminants in Food

Environmental Contaminants in Food

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Moffat, Moffat / Moffat, Colin / Moffat, PUBLISHER: Blackwell Publishers, Written by respected scientists from around the world, Environmental Contaminants in Food presents examples of research activities devoted to ensuring that the input of contaminants into foods is minimized. Chapters detail methods of modern instrumental analysis with specific analytes, with risk assessment, and, uniquely, with sensory assessment and tainting. An essential text for food producers, quality assurance personnel, and government agencies Ultimately the source or cause of food contaminants is of relatively minor relevance to consumers, who are more concerned with acute or chronic toxicological effects of exposure to a contaminant. In contrast, food producers and government agencies should strive to minimize environmental contamination of food by studying the uptake, depuration, and movement of contaminants through the food web; by monitoring food products and the environment; and by establishing protocols and legislation to minimize exposure of end users to contaminants in their food. This volume is directed at food scientists and technologists; ingredients suppliers; quality assurance personnel; analytical chemists and public analysts; and chemists and microbiologists working within environmental health laboratories.

An Appeal to Reason: A Cool Look at Global Warming

An Appeal to Reason: A Cool Look at Global Warming

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lawson, Nigel, PUBLISHER: Gerald Duckworth & Co Ltd, "Clear, analytical and compelling." -"The Economist" In this well-informed and hard-hitting response to the scaremongering of the climate alarmists, Nigel Lawson, former Secretary of State for Energy under Margaret Thatcher, argues that it is time for us to take a cool look at global warming. Lawson carefully and succinctly examines all aspects of the global warming issue: the science, the economics, the politics, and the ethics. He concludes that the conventional wisdom on the subject is suspect on a number of grounds, that global warming is not the devastating threat to the planet it is widely alleged to be, and that the remedy that is currently being proposed, which is in any event politically unattainable, would be worse that the threat it is supposed to avert. Argued with logic, common sense, and even wit, and thoroughly sourced and referenced, Lawson has written a long overdue corrective to the barrage of spin and hype to which the politicians and media have been subjecting the public on this important issue.
