William Dean Howells

A Writer’s Life

By: Susan Goodman,Carl Dawson

Possibly the most influential figure in the history of American letters, William Dean Howells (1837-1920) was, among other things, a leading novelist in the realist tradition, a formative influence on many of America's finest writers, and an outspoken opponent of social injustice. This biography, the first comprehensive work on Howells in fifty years, enters the consciousness of the man and his times, revealing a complicated and painfully honest figure who came of age in an era of political corruption, industrial greed, and American imperialism. Written with verve and originality in a highly absorbing style, it brings alive for a new generation a literary and cultural pioneer who played a key role in creating the American artistic ethos. William Dean Howells traces the writer's life from his boyhood in Ohio before the Civil War, to his consularship in Italy under President Lincoln, to his rise as editor of Atlantic Monthly. It looks at his writing, which included novels, poems, plays, children's books, and criticism. Howells had many powerful friendships among the literati of his day; and here we find an especially rich examination of the relationship between Howells and Mark Twain. Howells was, as Twain called him, "the boss" of literary critics—his support almost single-handedly made the careers of many writers, including African Americans like Paul Dunbar and women like Sarah Orne Jewett. Showcasing many noteworthy personalities—Henry James, Edmund Gosse, H. G. Wells, Stephen Crane, Emily Dickinson, and many others—William Dean Howells portrays a man who stood at the center of American literature through the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Now What?

The Irreverent Memoirs of a Daydreamer, Counterspy, Prosecutor, Defense Attorney, and Adventurer

By: Carl L. Steinhouse

The author went through the many phases of his life with a glint in his eye, a sense of humor, and a practical approach to life. An Intelligence Analyst in the Army Counter Intelligence Corps, a public accountant, a federal prosecutor, and defense attorney in white collar and antitrust criminal, civil, and class action matters and cases, he recounts the strange and hilarious things that occurred in each of these phases, No heroics, just a lot of humorous and weird stuff while growing up and avoiding cops in the South Bronx; starting at an early age with the Wonder Bread catastrophe; surviving in the Army; losing a Buick Roadmaster in the fierce winter winds of Trieste; getting though night law school; becoming a federal prosecutor in New York, Hawaii, and Cleveland; adjusting to dealing with clients as a defense attorney and partner in a prominent law firm; going to the mattresses during hostile corporate takeovers; experiencing the unusual in his world travel adventures (including being pushed around by a large male gorilla, being arrested in Zimbabwe, and sleeping with Scotland's ewes); and finally, in retirement, being introduced to and attempting to master the terrible game of golf.

The most authoritative and feature-rich edition of On War in English Carl von Clausewitz’s On War is the most significant attempt in Western history to understand war, both in its internal dynamics and as an instrument of policy.

First published in 1976 and revised in 1984, Michael Howard and Peter Paret’s Princeton edition of Clausewitz’s classic work has itself achieved classic status and is widely regarded as the best translation and standard edition of On War in English. This feature-rich edition includes an essay by Paret on the genesis of Clausewitz’s book, an essay by Howard on Clausewitz’s influence, and an essay by Bernard Brodie on the continuing relevance of On War. In addition, Brodie provides a lengthy and detailed commentary on and guide to reading On War, and the edition also includes a comprehensive index.

New Companies Act Unlocked

By: Carl Stein

From 1 May 2011 company law in South Africa was dramatically altered: the 1973 Act which had governed companies for the life-times of most business people and lawyers in South Africa was replaced by the Companies Act of 2008, as amended in March 2011. A new era of company law dawned, and with it a host of new concepts, rights, remedies, obligations, procedures and sanctions were introduced. These fundamentally affect the way that every business operates and the advice and practice of every lawyer, accountant or other professional adviser. This book, the first to cover the new Act and the new regulations, provides the hand-holding, the insight, and the understanding that business and their advisers require in order not to be wrong-footed by the new regime.

Deception Down Under

Deception Down Under

By: Carl Nicks

In Deception Down Under, an American student pilot enrolled in a flight training program on the Space Coast of Florida, is lured into smuggling drugs into the country for a powerful Columbian cocaine cartel out of Miami. This young man went from a young naïve college student, studying aviation management to a full-time pilot for a Columbian cocaine cartel which paid him very well to smuggle drugs into the U.S. from the Bahamas in a twin-engine airplane. The initial glamour and power of the drug world is deceiving until he was arrested and set up to look like a witness against the cartel by a testimony fabricated by his co-defendant. He was lured into doing this in 1984 in Florida at a well known surf spot in the “Space Coast” called Sebastian Inlet. It all seemed so simple and he was living in a utopia world not thinking he was ever going to get caught. It was not until after making a lot of money, and acquiring a glamorous lifestyle that everything did fall apart and he was trapped between the cartel and the law. Afraid for his life, he decided to adopt a new identity and escaped from America to start another life for himself in Australia. He fled to Australia where he re-established himself and built a new exotic life in Queensland on the Gold Coast. The large frontier Down Under is a new test of all of his will to survive on his own in a foreign country where he is a total stranger. As a result of intensive surveillance, monitoring his parents mail, and phone taps, the FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION uncovered his deception. He eventually was placed on the F.B.I.’s Top 10 Most Wanted list and was tracked to Australia where he was eventually deported to Hawaii, and later deported back to the mainland of the UNITED STATES to face drug charges and accept the reality of incarceration. Once imprisoned, he builds an inner strength and knowledge of life that changed him forever. All of these scenarios combined formed a barrier which was very difficult to overcome. In additon, it destroyed the life which he was meant to have as a respected professional and placed overwhelming anxiety and emotional strain on his family. The book is being written to describe the upheaval that occurred in this young man’s life through the use of drugs and the importation of drugs into this country, successfully utilizing the multi-level marketing network which he had developed. It also describes the awesome task of re-entering his former life, now carrying additional baggage, and the struggle he faces in assimilating a REAL LIFE. His story is a powerful testimony for others to learn from, because so many people in today’s world are vulnerable to the deception of “easy money,” whether in the drug culture on Wall Street or main street. It is also a compelling adventure story from the standpoint of someone recreating a life for himself and then being allowed to live it. The underlying theme of the story is that “YOU CAN NOT LIVE A LIE. You cannot discover your own reality until you go back and reweave the fabric of your life.

Migration, Citizenship, and the European Welfare State

Migration, Citizenship, and the European Welfare State

A European Dilemma

By: Carl-Ulrik Schierup,Peo Hansen,Stephen Castles

This book provides a major new examination of the current dilemmas of liberal anti-racist policies in European societies, linking two discourses that are normally quite separate in social science: immigration and ethnic relations research on the one hand, and the political economy of the welfare state on the other. The authors rephrase Gunnar Myrdal's questions in An American Dilemma with reference to Europe's current dual crisis - that of the established welfare state facing a declining capacity to maintain equity, and that of the nation state unable to accommodate incremental ethnic diversity. They compare developments across the European Union with the contemporary US experience of poverty, race, and class. They highlight the major moral-political dilemma emerging across the EU out of the discord between declared ideals of citizenship and actual exclusion from civil, political, and social rights. Pursuing this overall European predicament, the authors provide a critical scrutiny of the EU's growing policy involvement in the fields of international migration, integration, discrimination, and racism. They relate current policy issues to overall processes of economic integration and efforts to develop a European 'social dimension'. Drawing on case-study analysis of migration, the changing welfare state, and labour markets in the UK, Germany, Italy, and Sweden, the book charts the immense variety of Europe's social and political landscape. Trends of divergence and convergence between single countries are related to the European Union's emerging policies for diversity and social inclusion. It is, among other things, the plurality of national histories and contemporary trajectories that makes the European Union's predicament of migration, welfare, and citizenship different from the American experience. These reasons also account in part for why it is exceedingly difficult to advance concerted and consistent approaches to one of the most pressing policy issues of our time. Very few of the existing sociological texts which compare different European societies on specific topics are accessible to a broad range of scholars and students. The European Societies series will help to fill this gap in the literature, and attempt to answer questions such as: Is there really such a thing as a 'European model' of society? Do the economic and political integration processes of the European Union also imply convergence in more general aspects of social life, such a family or religious behaviour? What do the societies of Western Europe have in common with those further to the East? This series will cover the main social institutions, although not every author will cover the full range of European countries. As well as surveying existing knowledge in a manner useful to students, each book will also seek to contribute to our growing knowledge of what remains in many respects a sociologically unknown continent. The series editor is Colin Crouch.

Punk Rock and the Politics of Place

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Punk Rock and the Politics of Place

Building a Better Tomorrow

By: Jeffrey S. Debies-Carl

This book is an ethnographic investigation of punk subculture as well as a treatise on the importance of place: a location with both physical form and cultural meaning. Rather than examining punk as a "sound" or a "style" as many previous works have done, it investigates the places that the subculture occupies and the cultural practices tied to those spaces. Since social groups need spaces of their own to practice their way of life, this work relates punk values and practices to the forms of their built environments. As not all social groups have an equal ability to secure their own spaces, the book also explores the strategies punks use to maintain space and what happens when they fail to do so.

Cities in the Wilderness - The First Century of Urban Life in America 1625-1742

By: Carl Bridenbaugh

Today more than half of all Americans make their homes in cities, and the ease of modern transportation causes the lives of many more to be affected by town conditions. Our national history has been that of transition from a predominantly rural and agricultural way of living to one in which the city plays a major role. Both materially and psychologically urban factors govern much of American life. Their origins are therefore of more than passing interest Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

The Twin Behind the Curtain

By: Carl Scholz

A group led by American Alan Mackenzie daringly escaped from communist Hungary during the brutal Soviet repression of the popular uprising of 1956. Twelve years later, at the height of the Cold War, Alan and two of the Hungarian participants, Frank and Maria, are reunited to help organize the defection of a high-ranking East German official who can identify communist moles in the American government. The resources of the American intelligence agencies could not be used to find moles within their own ranks; therefore, the President and the Secretary of State decided to find help elsewhere. Under difficult conditions, the defector is extricated, concealed in an American tour group of vacationing movie technicians and small-time actors traveling by bus through Austria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, and Poland. The operation is flawlessly planned, and yet something goes wrong. The disappearance is discovered within a few hours. Due to the high rank of the missing official, the police investigation turns overnight into a massive manhunt involving the tour passengers in an increasingly dangerous contest of wits with the feared Stasi, the East German secret police. Under pressure from their highest party leaders, the frustrated Stasi escalate their search into obsessive, desperate actions.

Since Then

How I Survived Everything and Lived to Tell About It

By: David Crosby,Carl Gottlieb

An honest and revealing memoir from musician David Crosby, founding member of The Byrds and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. A true rock-and-roll survivor, David Crosby was the quintessential American icon of the counterculture of the sixties and seventies. In Since Then, the follow-up memoir to his New York Times bestseller Long Time Gone, the legendary, controversial, and beloved poster boy for folk-rock utopia again turns his wry and unstinting eye to a fascinating, prickly subject: himself. Reunited with his adult son while awaiting a liver transplant, becoming a famous sperm donor (to Melissa Etheridge and Julie Cypher), coming back from a crippling motorcycle accident, losing his house in an earthquake, and through it all making beautiful music, David Crosby once again reveals all with self-skewering humor and honesty—as only he can. “A fascinating life worthy of a sequel.”—Entertainment Weekly

It explains how macro cultural factors -- social institutions, cultural artifacts, and cultural concepts -- are the cornerstones of society and how they form the origins and characteristics of psychological phenomena. This theory is used to explain the diversity of psychological phenomena such as emotions, self, intelligence, sexuality, memory, reasoning, perception, developmental processes, and mental illness. Ratner draws upon Lev Vygotsky's sociocultural psychology, Bronfenbrenner's ecological psychology, as well as work in sociology, anthropology, history, and geography, to explore the political implications and assumptions of psychological theories regarding social policy and reform. The theory outlined here addresses current theoretical and political issues such as agency, realism, objectivity, subjectivism, structuralism, postmodernism, and multiculturalism. In this sense, the book articulates a systematic political philosophy of mind to examine numerous approaches to psychology, including indigenous psychology, cross-cultural psychology, activity theory, discourse analysis, mainstream psychology, and evolutionary psychology.

Residential Landscape Sustainability

A Checklist Tool

By: Carl Smith,Nigel Dunnett,Andy Clayden

This valuable resource for developers and designers will help to develop design solutions sympathetic to the environment and improve the sustainability of residential landscapes. The landscapes around housing have a crucial role in creating a more sustainable future with carbon-neutral homes. This book shows how to improve the sustainable profile of new residential developments through landscape planning, design and management – by conserving resources and minimising pollution, and by enhancing ecological diversity. This may be achieved without significant additional capital outlay. The residential landscape sustainability checklist gives housing developers, landscape architects, architects and planners a tool with which to assess the environmental implication of their schemes throughout the design process – from site planning to detailed design. The checklist focuses on residential housing developments but many features of the tool - including improving energy efficiency, materials selection, planting design and management - can also be applied to a wide range of different types of development, from school grounds to retail parks.
