Artists in Times of Warby Howard ZinnISBN 1583226028 (1-58322-602-8)
Softcover, Seven Stories Pr
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Artists in Times of War'Book summary:"Political power," says Howard Zinn, "is controlled by the corporate elite, and the arts are the locale for a kind of guerilla warfare in the sense that guerillas look for apertures and opportunities where they can have an effect." In Artists in Times of War, Zinn looks at the possibilities to create such apertures through art, film, activism, publishing and through our everyday lives. In this collection of four essays, the author of A People's History of the United States writes about why "To criticize the government is the highest act of patriotism." Filled with quotes and examples from the likes of Bob Dylan, Mark Twain, e. e. cummings, Thomas Paine, Joseph Heller, and Emma Goldman, Zinn's essays discuss America's rich cultural counternarratives to war, so needed in these days of unchallenged U.S. militarism.

Ethical Ambition: Living a Life of Meaning and Worthby Derrick BellISBN 1582343039 (1-58234-303-9)
Softcover, St Martins Pr
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Ethical Ambition: Living a Life of Meaning and Worth'Book summary:Author of Ethical Ambition Derrick Bell is a constitutional lawyer currently teaching at NYU law school and is the author of seven books including the New York Times bestseller Faces at the Bottom of the Well. Ethical Ambition is a slim volume offering wise council on the matter of living a life of integrity and worth. Setting out six principles on which to live our lives Bell urges us to live a life of passion, to have the courage of our convictions, to rely on our loved ones and our faith for support, to have the humility to know when our best intentions go astray. It sounds like a book of ethical platitudes for the young written by a wise old paid-his-dues do-gooder with some interesting stories to tell. It is, but it is none the worse for that.
Bell has walked the walk in his own life as lawyer/activist in the NAACP but also in his academic life where he suffered the indignity of being stripped of his tenure and dismissed from Harvard for taking a principled stand. The really interesting parts of the book are Chapters 1, 3 and 6. The first is an unusual take on the notion of passion. The third is a fine example of what it means to have religious faith in the modern worlda world of science and technology-without compromising one's intellectual integrity. Bell is a non-theistic progressive Christian reformer in the mould of John Shelby Sponge who also understands how and why the Christian myths were created in the first place and why it is time to get beyond theism. The final chapter is a disarming confession of his own failures as a social reformer, specifically it is a critique of the arrogance and self-righteousness of liberal lawyers losing touch with their community, with real-world politics, and the needs of those whose rights they believed themselves to be defending and upholding. More broadly it is a retrospective of the failures of liberalism in the late twentieth century. Overall, Ethical Ambition is easy, if not always comfortable, reading, with more than enough in it to keep the reader interested and on their ethical toes. --Larry Brown [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Hungry for Profit: The Agribusiness Threat to Farmers, Food, and the Environment'Book summary:Millions go hungry every year in both poor and rich nations, yet hundreds of thousands of peasants and farmers continue to be pushed off the land. Applied in increasing volumes, chemical pesticides and synthetic fertilizers deplete the soil, pollute our food and water, and leave crops more vulnerable to pest outbreaks. The new and expanding use of genetically engineered seeds threatens species diversity.
This penetrating set of essays explains why corporate agribusiness is a rising threat to farmers, the environment, and consumers. Ranging in subject from the politics of hunger to the new agricultural biotechnologies, and in time and place from early modern Europe to contemporary Cuba, the contributions to Hungry for Profit examine the changes underway in world agriculture today and point the way toward organic, sustainable solutions to problems of food supply.

Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'My Bad: 25 Years of Public Apologies and the Appalling Behavior That Inspired Them'Book summary:A collection of famous and infamous apologies - from Janet Jackson to Jesse Jackson, Jarry Falwell to Jerry Lewis - that proves anyone is capable of screwing up, big time.[via]
Whether it's in the field of politics, sports, entertainment, business or religion, to err is human but to err in public is humiliating. In this anthology of apologies ranging from grudging to groveling, both the famous and the infamous seek forgiveness. From Jesse Jackson (for saying "Hymietown") to Janet Jackson (for her wardrobe malfunction), from Hugh Grant (for the hooker) to Bill Clinton (for the intern), from Sen. Bob Packwood (for groping women) to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (for groping women), the public apology has become a cleansing rite of passage for transgressors of all kinds.
My Bad collects the most exquisitely squirm-inducing pleas for forgiveness to have passed the lips of the nation's misbehavers. Both hilarious and educational - did you know that Ted Turner insulted not just the Italians and the Poles but also African-Americans and Christians, or that the lead singer for Blood, Sweat & Tears told his largely Jewish audience that the weather was "as hot as the last train car going to Auschwitz"? - My Bad pays tribute to the wildly entertaining ritual that the public apology has become.More editions of My Bad: 25 Years of Public Apologies and the Appalling Behavior That Inspired Them:

› Find signed collectible books: 'North Korea South Korea: U.S. Policy at a Time of Crisis'Book summary:The Korean peninsula, divided for more than fifty years, is stuck in a time warp. Millions of troops face one another along the Demilitarized Zone separating communist North Korea and capitalist South Korea. In the early 1990s and again in 2002-2003, the United States and its allies have gone to the brink of war with North Korea. Misinterpretations and misunderstandings are fueling the crisis. "There is no country of comparable significance concerning which so many people are ignorant," American anthropologist Cornelius Osgood said of Korea some time ago. This ignorance may soon have fatal consequences.
North Korea, South Korea is a short, accessible book about the history and political complexites of the Korean peninsula, one that explores practical alternatives to the current US policy: alternatives that build on the remarkable and historic path of reconciliation that North and South embarked on in the 1990s and that point the way to eventual reunification.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Oh Really? Factor: Unspinning Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly'Book summary:Since emerging from tabloid-television infamy as the former host of Inside Edition, Bill OReilly has taken his brand of provocative rhetoric to the next level: from shock-TV to the No Spin Zone. Despite his outspoken support for Bushs tax cuts and a war with Iraq, and his attacks on everything from National Public Radio to "welfare mothers," OReilly fashions his program, The OReilly Factor, as "without an agenda or any ideological prejudices." Presenting opposing viewpoints and likely to express views that occasionally diverge from the conservative orthodoxy, OReilly has styled himself as a straight-shooting man of the people, wary of the conservative label with which liberals would tag him. In The Oh Really? Factor, brimming with examples of OReillys error, contradiction, and hard-right political tilt, Hart exposes the No Spin Zone as little more than clever marketing.
The Oh Really? Factor reflects hundreds of hours of research, fact checking, and analysis of the same evidence OReilly uses to support his claims. In this concise and compelling analysis of OReillys views, Hart underscores this pundits masked partisanship; adversarial stance toward unions, Blacks, immigrants, and gays and lesbians; and his kid-gloves treatment of the Right. Forming an important corrective, The Oh Really? Factor snags OReilly in his own spin. [via]More editions of The Oh Really? Factor: Unspinning Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly:

He can barely swing a sword, and his brothers are forever wrestling him to the ground. Razo is sure it's out of pity that his captain asks him to join an elite mission--escorting the ambassador into Tira, Bayern's great enemy.
But when the Bayern arrive in the strange southern country, Razo discovers the first dead body. He befriends both the high and low born, people who can perhaps provide them with vital information. And Razo is the one who must embrace his own talents in order to get the Bayern soldiers home again, alive.
Newbery-Honor winner Shannon Hale returns the reader to the intrigue and magic of Bayern, first introduced in her critically acclaimed novel, The Goose Girl. Enter a world where even those with no special magical skills find in themselves something they never imagined.More editions of River Secrets:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Send in the Idiots: Stories From The Other Side of Autism'Book summary:A remarkable, elegantly written portrait of four autistic men and women, and what their struggles and triumphs reveal about this baffling condition, and about us all.[via]
In 1982, when he was four years old, Kamran Nazeer was enrolled in a small school in New York City alongside a dozen other children diagnosed with autism. Calling themselves the Idiots, these kids received care that was at the cutting edge of developmental psychology. Twenty-three years later, the school no longer exists.
Send in the Idiots is the always candid, often surprising, and ultimately moving investigation into what happened to those children. Now a policy adviser in England, Kamran decides to visit four of his old classmates to find out the kind of lives that they are living now, how much they've been able to overcome--and what remains missing. A speechwriter unable to make eye contact; a messenger who gets upset if anyone touches his bicycle; a depressive suicide victim; and a computer engineer who communicates difficult emotions through the use of hand puppets: these four classmates reveal an astonishing, thought-provoking spectrum of behavior.
Bringing to life the texture of autistic lives and the pressures and limitations that the condition presents, Kamran also relates the ways in which those can be eased over time, and with the right treatment. Using his own experiences to examine such topics as the difficulties of language, conversation as performance, and the politics of civility, Send in the Idiots is also a rare and provocative exploration of the way that people--all people--learn to think and feel. Written with unmatched insight and striking personal testimony, Kamran Nazeer's account is a stunning, invaluable, and utterly unique contribution to the literature of what makes us human.More editions of Send in the Idiots: Stories From The Other Side of Autism:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Social Limits to Growth'Book summary:Social Limits to Growth sets forth a new view of the nature and the limitations of economic growth. The authors central argument is that there are indeed limits to growth currently exist and are essentially social rather than physical. As societies have become richer, an increasing proportion of the extra goods, services, and facilities sought by consumers cannot be acquired or used by all, without spoiling them for each other. So frustration is heightened by material affluence, which is why affluence does not make a satisfied society.This book offers important insight on apparently disconnected aspects of the current malaisesuch as alienation at work, the rat-race element in education, deterioration in city living, consumerist relationships with neighbors, friends, and sex partners, as well as accelerating rates of inflation and unemployment.

Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Watershed: The Undamming of America'Book summary:A close examination of the questions facing communities across the United States where dam removal is on the environmental and political agenda.. Dams and diversions along America's rivers have transformed the country and in doing so created environmental problems whose resolution will, in many ways, determine how we live in the next century. There are over 75,000 dams in the country and almost no major river in the country remains undammed. But now, for the first time in our nation's history, the pace of dam removal has overtaken the pace of construction as communities across the country commit themselves to river restoration, including the removal of harmful dams.Questioning the value of dams requires a serious readjustment in the country's notion of progress, a prospect threatening to some and daunting to all. Watershed examines the implications of dam removal to America's rivers and their communities by exploring the stories of a number of places where dam removal and river restoration are now underway. This is a story of people and place, and of a vital turning point in the nation's relationship to its rivers. 0813367824 the Spirit of American Law : an Anthology [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Welfare Brat: A Memoir'Book summary:An intimate and frank look at poverty, abuse, and welfare dependence by a "welfare brat" who came of age in the blighted Bronx of the 1960s.[via]
Mary Childers grew up in a neighborhood ravaged by poverty. Once a borough of elegant apartment buildings, parks, and universities, the Bronx had become a national symbol of urban decay. White flight, arson, rampant crime, and race riots provide the backdrop for Mary's story. The child of an absent carny father for whom she longed and a single welfare mother who schemed and struggled to house and feed her brood, Mary was the third of her mother's surviving seven children, who were fathered by four different men.
From an early age, Mary knew she was different. She loved her family fiercely but didn't want to repeat her mother's or older sisters' mistakes. The Childers family culture was infused with alcohol and drugs, and relations between the sexes were muddled by simultaneous feelings of rage and desire toward men. Fatherless children were the norm. Academic achievement and hard work were often scorned, not rewarded; five of the seven Childers children dropped out of high school. But Mary was determined to create a better life, and here she recounts her bumpy road to self-sufficiency. With this engaging and thoughtful examination of her difficult early years, Mary Childers breathes messy life into the issues of poverty and welfare dependence, childhood resilience, the American work ethic, and a popular culture that values sexuality more than self-esteem.
