Husbands and wives--a story as old as time and as new as J. Lo and whoever it is she's married to this month. Daniel Will-Harris spins a hilarious new take on this age-old subject, tackling everyday topics from tiny BBQs to giant chickens; putting up shelves to putting down cookies; puppies to panic; curtains to karma. Will-Harris says "You're going to look back and laugh at this someday." That's something I tell myself and what I do in these stories--rewrite the past and change shock to shtick, transform tears to laughter. 50,000 Internet readers already agree, recommending their friends to Will-Harris' site and e-mail list. That's why they're among the most popular and fastest-growing story sites and lists on the web. Here's what actual readers are saying: "Anyone who's ever been married, or even known a person of the opposite sex, will love these stories. Non-stop hilarity from start to finish!" The author's wife (well, she would, wouldn't she). "Hilarious! My wife and I couldn't stop laughing. Will-Harris is like the literary love child of Dave Barry and David Sedaris." Brad Plitt "A comic gem!" Sheila Bennet "I read them at my desk and laughed so loud my co-workers thought I was crazy--until they read them and laughed out loud, too!" Sharone Osburn "I had tears of laughter running down my cheeks." John Stanley "Hysterical! My wife and I laughed for 10 minutes!" Pat Daley
This historical study traces how John Dewey, as did most of his contemporaries, struggled with the major dilemma of how to reconcile evolution, pedagogy, democracy, and race. In an original and provocative presentation, the author seeks to capture Dewey's original meaning by placing him in his own intellectual and cultural context. Fallace argues that Dewey created an ethnocentric curriculum at the famous University of Chicago Laboratory School (1896–1904) that traced the linear development of Western civilization and pointed to it as the cultural endpoint of all human progress. However, in the years following the First World War, Dewey reconstructed his orientation into an interactionist-pluralist view that recognized how a diversity of cultures was a necessity for democratic living and intellectual growth. Dewey and the Dilemma of Race is the first comprehensive intellectual biography to trace the development of Dewey's educational views. Filling an important gap in our understanding of Dewey's thinking on culture and race, this book will be of interest to a broad range of educators, historians, philosophers, and scholars.
