In A Just and Generous Nation, the eminent historian Harold Holzer and the noted economist Norton Garfinkle present a groundbreaking…
new account of the beliefs that inspired our sixteenth president to go to war when the Southern states seceded from the Union. Rather than a commitment to eradicating slavery or a defense of the Union, they argue, Lincoln’s guiding principle was the defense of equal economic opportunity. Lincoln firmly believed that the government’s primary role was to ensure that all Americans had the opportunity to better their station in life. As president, he worked tirelessly to enshrine this ideal within the federal government. He funded railroads and canals, supported education, and, most importantly, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which opened the door for former slaves to join white Americans in striving for self-improvement. In our own age of unprecedented inequality, A Just and Generous Nation reestablishes Lincoln’s legacy as the protector not just of personal freedom but of the American dream itself.

On January 24, 1791, President George Washington chose the site for the young nation’s capital: ten miles square, it stretched…
from the highest point of navigation on the Potomac River, and encompassed the ports of Georgetown and Alexandria. From the moment the federal government moved to the District of Columbia in December 1800, Washington has been central to American identity and life. Shaped by politics and intrigue, poverty and largess, contradictions and compromises, Washington has been, from its beginnings, the stage on which our national dramas have played out. In Washington, the historian Tom Lewis paints a sweeping portrait of the capital city whose internal conflicts and promise have mirrored those of America writ large. Breathing life into the men and women who struggled to help the city realize its full potential, he introduces us to the mercurial French artist who created an ornate plan for the city “en grande”; members of the nearly forgotten anti-Catholic political party who halted construction of the Washington monument for a quarter century; and the cadre of congressmen who maintained segregation and blocked the city’s progress for decades. In the twentieth century Washington’s Mall and streets would witness a Ku Klux Klan march, the violent end to the encampment of World War I “Bonus Army” veterans, the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, and the painful rebuilding of the city in the wake of Martin Luther King, Jr. ’s assassination. “It is our national center,” Frederick Douglass once said of Washington, DC; “it belongs to us, and whether it is mean or majestic, whether arrayed in glory or covered in shame, we cannot but share its character and its destiny. ” Interweaving the story of the city’s physical transformation with a nuanced account of its political, economic, and social evolution, Lewis tells the powerful history of Washington, DC—the site of our nation’s highest ideals and some of our deepest failures.

The Paris Commune lasted for only 64 days in 1871, but during that short time it gave rise to some…
of the grandest political dreams of the nineteenth century—before culminating in horrific violence. Following the disastrous French defeat in the Franco-Prussian War, hungry and politically disenchanted Parisians took up arms against their government in the name of a more just society. They expelled loyalists and soldiers and erected barricades in the streets. In Massacre, John Merriman introduces a cast of inimitable Communards—from les pétroleuses (female incendiaries) to the painter Gustave Courbet—whose idealism fueled a revolution. And he vividly recreates the Commune’s chaotic and bloody end when 30,000 troops stormed the city, burning half of Paris and executing captured Communards en masse. A stirring evocation of the spring when Paris was ablaze with cannon fire and its citizens were their own masters, Massacre reveals how the indomitable spirit of the Commune shook the very foundations of Europe.

Is breast really best? Breastfeeding is widely assumed to be the healthiest choice, yet growing evidence suggests that its benefits…
have been greatly exaggerated. New moms are pressured by doctors, health officials, and friends to avoid the bottle at all costs--often at the expense of their jobs, their pocketbooks, and their well-being. In Lactivism, political scientist Courtney Jung offers the most deeply researched and far-reaching critique of breastfeeding advocacy to date. Drawing on her own experience as a devoted mother who breastfed her two children and her expertise as a social scientist, Jung investigates the benefits of breastfeeding and asks why so many people across the political spectrum are passionately invested in promoting it, even as its health benefits have been persuasively challenged. What emerges is an eye-opening story about class and race in America, the big business of breastfeeding, and the fraught politics of contemporary motherhood.

المتنزه. وعلى الرغم من أن القيام بهذه الأعمال ليس بمتعة اللعب أو الذهاب إلى المتنزه, إلا أن الأطفال يحتاجون لاستيعاب فكرة أن هذه الأعمال يجب أن تتم على أية حال, وأن إنجازها قد يكون شرطاً للحصول على وقت للعب. فالكتاب يروي قصة طفلة وعدتها أمها أن تأخذها للمتنزه في عطلة نهاية الأسبوع, ولكن ليس قبل أن تنتهي من إنجاز بعض الأعمال لمساعدة أمها في البيت. تقوم الطفلة بالأعمال الصغيرة المختلفة وهي تتذمر من هذا الشغل الذي لا ينتهي, بينما تحاول الأم جعلها تفكر بطريقة إيجابية وأن تتذكر بأنها ستذهب للمتنزه حال الانتهاء من هذه الأعمال. وحين تنتهي الطفلة من شغل المنزل, تأتي إليها الأم مرة أخرى لتريها بأن عملها في البيت كان جميلاً, وبأنها استحقت نجمة عن كل عمل قامت به.

"This book is a godsend . . . a moving portrait for anyone wanting to go beyond the simplified labels…
and metrics and really understand an urban high school, and its highly individual, resilient, eager and brilliant students and educators. ” --Dave Eggers, co-founder, 826 National and ScholarMatch Darrell is a reflective, brilliant young man, who never thought of himself as a good student. He always struggled with his reading and writing skills. Darrell’s father, a single parent, couldn't afford private tutors. By the end of middle school, Darrell’s grades and his confidence were at an all time low. Then everything changed. When education journalist Kristina Rizga first met Darrell at Mission High School, he was taking AP calculus class, writing a ten-page research paper, and had received several college acceptance letters. And Darrell was not an exception. More than 80 percent of Mission High seniors go to college every year, even though the school teaches large numbers of English learners and students from poor families. So, why has the federal government been threatening to close Mission High--and schools like it across the country? The United States has been on a century long road toward increased standardization in our public schools, which resulted in a system that reduces the quality of education to primarily one metric: standardized test scores. According to this number, Mission High is a "low-performing” school even though its college enrollment, graduation, attendance rates and student surveys are some of the best in the country. The qualities that matter the most in learning--skills like critical thinking, intellectual engagement, resilience, empathy, self-management, and cultural flexibility--can’t be measured by multiple-choice questions designed by distant testing companies, Rizga argues, but they can be detected by skilled teachers in effective, personalized and humane classrooms that work for all students, not just the most motivated ones. Based on four years of reporting with unprecedented access, the unforgettable, intimate stories in these pages throw open the doors to America’s most talked about--and arguably least understood--public school classrooms where the largely invisible voices of our smart, resilient students and their committed educators can offer a clear and hopeful blueprint for what it takes to help all students succeed.

This volume offers a new English translation, introduction, and detailed commentary on Sefer Meyasher 'Aqov, (The Rectifying of the Curved), a…
14th-century Hebrew treatise on the foundation of geometry. The book is a mixture of two genres: philosophical discussion and formal, Euclidean-type geometrical writing. A central issue is the use of motion and superposition in geometry, which is analyzed in depth through dialog with earlier Arab mathematicians. The author, Alfonso, was identified by Gita Gluskina (the editor of the 1983 Russian edition) as Alfonso of Valladolid, the converted Jew Abner of Burgos. Alfonso lived in Castile, rather far from the leading cultural centers of his time, but nonetheless at the crossroad of three cultures. He was raised in the Jewish tradition and like many Sephardic Jewish intellectuals was versed in Greek-Arabic philosophy and science. He also had connections with some Christian nobles and towards the end of his life converted to Christianity. Driven by his ambition to solve the problem of the quadrature of the circle, as well as other open geometrical problems, Alfonso acquired surprisingly wide knowledge and became familiar with several episodes in Greek and Arabic geometry that historians usually consider not to have been known in the West in the fourteenth century. Sefer Meyasher 'Aqov reflects his wide and deep erudition in mathematics and philosophy, and provides new evidence on cultural transmission around the Mediterranean.

से इन अंतरों का पता लगाने की कोशिश किए बगैर आठवीं सदी से सत्रहवीं सदी की समाप्ति तक भारत के सामाजिक, आर्थिक, राजनीतिक और सांस्कृतिक प्रवृत्तियों के अभ्युदय के अध्ययन का प्रयास किया गया है । इन सभी पहलुओं को एक खंड में समायोजित करना कठिन काम था । इस कार्य के पीछे ध्येय यह रहा है कि पिछले चार दशकों में इतिहासकारों द्वारा मध्यकालीन भारतीय इतिहास को एक नई दिशा देने के प्रयासों को एक जगह लाने से इसके प्रति आम लोगों की दिलचस्पी बढ़ेगी । साथ ही, मध्यकालीन भारत में राज्य की प्रकृति, लोगों की धार्मिक स्वतंत्रता और उस अवधि में आर्थिक विकास की प्रवृत्ति को लेकर हाल में उठे विवादों को सही परिप्रेक्ष्य में देखा जा सकेगा । इस पुस्तक में यह दर्शाया गया है कि बड़े साम्राज्यों के अभ्युदय और फिर छोटे खंडों में विभाजन और एकीकरण का मतलब हमेशा आर्थिक निष्क्रियता और सांस्कृतिक ह्रास ही नहीं रहा है, भारतीय इतिहास के मध्यकाल की तुलना अकसर तुर्क और मुगल शासनकाल से की जाती है जिसका अर्थ है सामाजिक कारकों की जगह राजनीतिक कारकों को प्राथमिकता देना । यह अवधारणा इस मान्यता पर भी आधारित है कि पिछली कई सदियों के दौरान भारतीय समाज में बहुत थोड़ा बदलाव आया है । इतिहासकारों ने भारत में जनजातीय समाज के क्षेत्रीय राज्यों में तब्दील होने का मूल्यांकन किया है ।
