The Origins of the Modern World: A Global and Environmental Narrative from the Fifteenth to the Twenty-First Century (Worl...

This clearly written and engrossing book presents a global narrative of the origins of the modern world from 1400 to the present. Unlike most studies, which assume that the rise of the West is the story of the coming of the modern world, this history, drawing upon new scholarship on Asia, Africa, and the New World and upon the maturing field of environmental history, constructs a story in which those parts of the world play major roles, including their impacts on the environment. Robert B. Marks defines the modern world as one marked by industry, the nation state, interstate warfare, a large and growing gap between the wealthiest and poorest parts of the world, increasing inequality within the wealthiest industrialized countries, and an escape from the environmental constraints of the biological old regime. He explains its origins by emphasizing contingencies (such as the conquest of the New World) the broad comparability of the most advanced regions in China, India, and Europe the

Democracy in America

Alexis de Tocqueville (1805-59) came to America in 1831 to see what a great republic was like. What struck him most was the country's equality of conditions, its democracy. The book he wrote on his return to France, Democracy in America, is both the best ever written on democracy and the best ever written on America. It remains the most often quoted book about the United States, not only because it has something to interest and please everyone, but also because it has something to teach everyone.?When it was?published in 2000, Harvey Mansfield and Delba Winthrop's new translation of Democracy in America?only the third since the original two-volume work was published in 1835 and 1840?was lauded in all quarters as the finest and most definitive edition of Tocqueville's classic thus far. Mansfield and Winthrop?have restored the nuances of Tocqueville's language, with the expressed goal to convey Tocqueville's thought as he held it rather than to restate it in comparable terms of today.

In Quest of the Historical Adam: A Biblical and Scientific Exploration

Was Adam a real historical person? And if so, who was he and when did he live??William Lane Craig sets out to answer these questions through a biblical and scientific investigation. He begins with an inquiry into the genre of Genesis 1?11, determining that it can most plausibly be classified as mytho-history?a narrative with both literary and historical value. He then moves into the New Testament, where he examines references to Adam in the words of Jesus and the writings of Paul, ultimately concluding that the entire Bible considers Adam the historical progenitor of the human race?a position that must therefore be accepted as a premise for Christians who take seriously the inspired truth of Scripture.?Working from that foundation of biblical truth, Craig embarks upon an interdisciplinary survey of scientific evidence to determine where Adam could be most plausibly located in the evolutionary history of humankind, ultimately determining that Adam lived between 750,000 and 1,000,000

Angela's Ashes

Narrated by Frank McCourt?When I look back on my childhood I wonder how I managed to survive at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood.?So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank?s mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank?s father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy?exasperating, irresponsible, and beguiling?does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father?s tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies.Perhaps it is story that accounts for Frank?s survival. Wearing rags for diapers, begging a pig?s head for

Technological Slavery

Logical, lucid, and direct,?Technological Slavery?radically reinvigorates and reforms the intellectual foundations of an age-old and resurgent world-view: Progress is a myth.?Wild nature and humanity are fundamentally incompatible with technological growth.In?Technological Slavery, Kaczynski argues that: (i) the unfolding human and environmental crises are the direct, inevitable result of technology itself (ii) many of the stresses endured in contemporary life are not normal to the human condition, but unique to technological conditions (iii) wilderness and human life close to nature are realistic and supreme ideals and, (iv) a revolution to eliminate modern technology and attain these ideals is necessary and far more achievable than would first appear.Drawing on?a broad range of disciplines, Kaczynski weaves together a set of visionary social theories to form a revolutionary perspective on the dynamics of history and the evolution of societies. The result is a comprehensive

If You Want a Friend in Washington: Wacky, Wild & Wonderful Presidential Pets


  A clever, funny, and informative look at the pets--from Calvin Coolidge's wallaby to Teddy Roosevelt's flying squirrels--that have passed through the White House gates. Perfect for fans of 
  
    I Am George Washington
  
   and 
  
    So You Want to Be President?
  
President Truman famously said, If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog. And a dog is what many presidents got. From James Garfield to Calvin Coolidge to Richard Nixon, presidents often found a friend in Fido (in fact, Abe Lincoln's pup was actually named Fido). Others preferred cats, horses, small critters, or even big, ferocious animals like bears and alligators. With a catchy refrain (If you want a friend in Washington . . ., ), this is a funny, educational book about the animals that have passed through the White House. Whether it's favorite dogs like Barbara Bush's Millie or the Obamas' Bo Abraham Lincoln's cat, Dixie Calvin Coolidge's hippo, Billy or Andrew Jackson's foul-mouthed parrot, Poll, Erin
