A Norton original in the  Reacting to the Past  series,  The Threshold of Democracy  re-creates the intellectual dynamics of one of the most formative periods in western history.  In this  Reacting to the Past  game, the classroom is transformed into Athens in 403 BCE In the wake of Athenian military defeat and rebellion, advocates of democracy have reopened the Assembly, but stability remains elusive. As members of the Assembly, players must contend with divisive issues like citizenship, elections, re-militarization, and dissent. Foremost among the troublemakers: Socrates.
 Reacting to the Past  is an award-winning series of immersive role-playing games that actively engage students in their own learning. Students assume the roles of historical characters and practice critical thinking, primary source analysis, and argument, both written and spoken.

EPUB Integrated Chinese Level 1 Part 1 Workbook: Simplified Characters (English and Chinese Edition)

Read Here: https://artonlinebooks.blogspot.com/?book=0887276407

Background
I recently decided to learn Mandarin but I work full-time and my schedule isn't flexible enough where I would be able to take night courses, so I set out to teach myself (with the help of my girlfriend, a native speaker). I looked up several books on Amazon and cross referenced them to local universities to see which were "tried and true" for college level learning. The Integrated Chinese series appeared to be widely used so I purchased the level 1 part 1 textbook and workbook.
Book Structure
There are 10 chapters and each chapter is broken down into two sub-chapters that are identical in structure. Each sub-chapter begins with a dialogue that introduces that new words and grammar rules. Next you are presented with a vocabulary list of new words which generally will consist of 10-20 new words. After the vocab list comes the new grammar rules followed by practice exercises. Each chapter has a theme such as hobbies, traveling, family, etc.
Opinion
The textbook is easy to follow and the grammar rules are explained in plain English. Level 1 Part 1 is what I would expect from 1 semester of college level language studies. If you're teaching yourself, you'll need someone to help you with your pronunciation. They offer language CDs separately so you can listen to the dialogues, but I didn't bother purchasing them so I'm unable to comment on them. I did purchase the workbook but haven't used it at all because the practice sections in the textbook have been sufficient. Overall I would recommend this book to someone who is motivated to learn Mandarin and at a pace comparable to a college level course.

PDF Winter of Summers (Volume 4) (Michael Faudet)

Read Here: https://artonlinebooks.blogspot.com/?book=1449496393

I’ve read all of Michael Faudet’s poetry books and he continues to be one of my favorite poets.
This is his fourth book of poetry and I love seeing how he has grown and developed as a poet. His first book, Dirty Pretty Things, was strictly romantic. This book, on the other hand, was still focused on romance and love, but he would drop in a poem every now and then that focused on social issues. For example, “Respect” was all about treating women with respect and “Trigger Warning” was about how we value guns more than the lives of people. Those poems were a nice surprise. There was also a touch of self-awareness to that I found very clever.
Out of all of his books, this one had the strongest prose pieces. Typically, I’m a bit indifferent to his prose; they never really leave a big impression on me. However, the ones in this book really impressed me. “The Wedding Present” and “Winter of Summers” were two of my favorites. I hope he writes a novel sometime in the future because I think he cultivated his prose into something special.
Overall, this was another strong collection from Faudet that was both romantic and smart.

READ A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America

Read Here: https://lazynations.blogspot.com/?book=0316022365

Ronald Takaki's beloved classic is a "brilliant revisionist history of America" ( Publishers Weekly ) that dramatically retells our nation's story from the perspective of minorities. 
 Upon its first publication,  A Different Mirror  was hailed by critics and academics everywhere as a dramatic new retelling of our nation's past. Beginning with the colonization of the New World, it recounted the history of America in the voice of the non-Anglo peoples of the United States–Native Americans, African Americans, Jews, Irish Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, and others–groups who helped create this country's rich mosaic culture.
 Now, Ronald Takaki has revised his landmark work and made it even more relevant and important. Among the new additions to the book are:    The role of black soldiers in preserving the Union    The history of Chinese Americans from 1900-1941    An investigation into the hot-button issue of "illegal" immigrants from Mexico    A look at the sudden visibility of Muslim refugees from Afghanistan.  
 This new edition of  A Different Mirror  is a remarkable achievement that grapples with the raw truth of American history and examines the ultimate question of what it means to be an American.    Read more

I bought this for my senior in high school. For cost reasons, the school offered electronic, CD, versions to students for take home and actual text books were kept for classroom use only. The CD version was difficult to navigate and not use-able for tutoring purposes, i.e. a PC is not always available at a tutoring location. The used copy I bought was in *excellent* condition and made life *so* much simpler for my high school senior. Visually it was 100% easier to see the illustartions and view the page in its enitrety; no need to zoom and manipulate the images on screen, Being able to open the book at a tutoring's location was exceedingly helpful for both tutor and student; there was no need to try & piece screenshots on tablets or cell phones to figure out the homework problems. The used copy was a tenth of the price of a new one and well worth every penny. My senior now has a passing grade in this class thanks to having access to the actual text book!
