The Tide of Poverty

By: Jack Walts

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Tide of Poverty is a soberingly plausible account of how easy it would be to bring a nuclear device into our nation and to destroy not only the northern half of the State of Washington but to deliver four additional nuclear ‘dirty bombs’ to our nations’ capital. As wildfi res ravage our nation, as states secede from the union, as right wing hate groups gain leverage not only in local areas but in national politics as well the reader will begin to realize how perilously close to anarchy our nation has drifted. It is also a delightful account of how in many crisis ordinary people rise to what is demanded of heroes and thwart diabolical plots of massive intrigue and power. It is seldom the ‘super hero’ that ‘saves the day’. It is the ordinary person who lives up to the standard set by Robert Service when he in the 1800’s wrote “Carry On”. America needs to wake up to what is happening. For too long we have allowed political ideology to supplant common sense, science, even religion. You may deny that far right wing groups pose a danger to our nation and to your very last breath you may cast blame on others, yet when radiation burns your fl esh, when wildfi res consume your homes or fl oods sweep you out to sea you will still be dead. And so will your nation.

They Never Had It So Good

By: Jack W. Sheridan

They Never Had It So Good, first published in 1946, is a first-hand account of the activities—both in the air and on the ground—of a B-17 Flying Fortress Bomber Squadron during nearly three years of World War Two. The Squadron, based at an airfield in southern England, took part in over 300 missions, including bombing runs in support of the D-day landings in Normandy and the embattled allied forces at the Battle of the Bulge, to wide-ranging, hazardous missions over Germany, Norway, Belgium, and Romania. The book, written as a unit history by a member of the ground-crew, details the daily activities of the Squadron but adds many stories of the men while at work or on leave, beginning with the group's formation and training at various bases in the U.S. until the time they reach New York city following the war's end. They Never Had It So Good provides an insightful, inside look at an American airbase in England during the Second World War.

Battle Under the Moon

The Disastrous RAF Raid on Mailly-le-Camp, 1944

By: Jack Currie

This is a gripping account of the ill-fated RAF raid, on 3 May 1944, on the Panzer tank depot and military barracks at Mailly-le-Camp south of Rheims in northern France, part of the softening up process on German military targets, in preparation for the D-Day landings. Raids like this over occupied France were considered relatively low risk affairs and only counted for one third of a mission for the crews concerned.

Consequences of Language

Consequences of Language

From Primary to Enhanced Intersubjectivity

By: N. J. Enfield,Jack Sidnell

What is it about humans that makes language possible, and what is it about language that makes us human? If you are reading this, you have done something that only our species has evolved to do. You have acquired a natural language. This book asks, How has this changed us? Where scholars have long wondered what it is about humans that makes language possible, N. J. Enfield and Jack Sidnell ask instead, What is it about humans that is made possible by language? In Consequences of Language their objective is to understand what modern language really is and to identify its logical and conceptual consequences for social life. Central to this undertaking is the concept of intersubjectivity, the open sharing of subjective experience. There is, Enfield and Sidnell contend, a uniquely human form of intersubjectivity, and it is essentially intertwined with language in two ways: a primary form of intersubjectivity was necessary for language to have begun evolving in our species in the first place and then language, through its defining reflexive properties, transformed the nature of our intersubjectivity. In the authors’ analysis, social accountability—the bedrock of society—is grounded in this linguistically transformed, enhanced kind of intersubjectivity. The account of the language-mind-society connection put forward in Consequences of Language is one of unprecedented reach, suggesting new connections across disciplines centrally concerned with language—from anthropology and philosophy to sociology and cognitive science—and among those who would understand the foundational role of language in making us human.
