Public School Equity

Educational Leadership for Justice

By: Manya Whitaker

Equality is not equity, tolerance is not inclusion, and access is not opportunity. Efforts to address inequities within our schools tend to ignore the underlying beliefs that sustain injustices, and focus instead on short-lived policies and practices. This book takes a different approach to eradicating educational disparities. Drawing on more than forty interviews with teachers, principals, and district leaders, Manya C. Whitaker offers educators guidance for leading a school or district grounded in social justice that centers teachers—not just teaching practices—and that focuses on the belief systems that shape decision-making. The chapters walk educational leaders through a strategic approach to long-term change: from school planning for family and community engagement, to hiring and onboarding teachers, to sustaining equity through multifaceted professional development and equitable evaluation. Concrete “how-to”s are provided throughout, along with reflection questions to help readers apply the content to their context. For any school or district leader intent on addressing the many inequities highlighted by the COVID-19 pandemic, this book is an essential manual.

Milwaukee's Historic Bowling Alleys

By: Manya Kaczkowski

From the U.S. Olympic team, to Bowling with the Champs, to countless corner bars with a couple of lanes in the basement, Milwaukee has lived and breathed this sport. In the late 1800s, German brewers like Capt. Frederick Pabst and the Uihleins offered bowling in their Milwaukee beer gardens. When Abe Langtry brought the American Bowling Congress here in 1905, Brew City became bowling central. Today owning a bowling alley is a labor of love, with good reason. Its the place where you rolled that 700 series, met your wife, and taught your son how to bowl in the junior league. Even in this high-tech, immediate-gratification society, bowling still thrives in Milwaukee. Several old-school lanes still have steady business, and this book is a tribute to the people, the places, and the sport that made Milwaukee Americas Bowling Capital.

Learning from the Inside-Out

Child Development and School Choice

By: Manya Whitaker

Learning from the Inside-Out: Child Development and School Choice is the first book of its kind to marry child development, educational psychology, neuroscience, and pedagogy. This book goes beyond the now banal conversation of differentiating students based upon gender, race, and class. This book is about the cognitive and social needs of students throughout the developmental span and how to identify schools that meet those needs. In essence, this book rejects the one-size-fits-all discourse of education reform in favor of a focus on individualized educational decision-making. Learning from the Inside-Out acknowledges that contrary to the popular saying, good teaching is not good teaching. What one student needs in a teacher, classroom environment or curricula is not necessarily what another student might need despite demographic similarities. After reading this book, parents and teachers will be empowered and informed when making decisions about how best to educate children.

Real Estate Valuation Theory

A Critical Appraisal

By: Manya M. Mooya

This monograph critically reviews and updates real estate valuation theory, which is based on neoclassical economics, in light of developments in heterodox economic theory. Building on a comprehensive historical account of the evolution of value theory, the book uses new institutional economics theory and critical realism as lenses through which problems in standard valuation theory and practice are expatiated, and as the foundation for an alternative theory. The new theory is employed to explain major problems in real estate valuation that are beyond the capability of the standard theory, such as price bubbles in real estate markets, anchoring bias, client influence and valuation under uncertain market conditions.

Anahita

A History and Reception of the Iranian Water Goddess

By: Manya Saadi-nejad

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Anahita

A History and Reception of the Iranian Water Goddess

By: Manya Saadi-nejad

Anahita was the most important goddess of pre-Islamic Iran. From her roots as an ancient Indo-European water deity her status was unrivalled by any other Iranian goddess throughout the course of three successive Iranian empires over a period of a thousand years. The first scholarly book on Anahita, this study reconstructs the Indo-European water goddess through a comparison of Celtic, Slavic, Armenian and Indo-Iranian myths and rituals. Anahita's constantly-evolving description and functions are then traced through the written and iconographic records of Iranian societies from the Achaemenid period onwards, including but not limited to the Zoroastrian texts and the inscriptions and artistic representations of the great pre-Islamic Iranian empires. The study concludes by tracing survival of the goddess in Islamic Iran, as seen in new Persian literature and popular rituals. Manya Saadi-nejad demonstrates the close relationship between Iranian mythology and that of other Indo-European peoples, and the significant cultural continuities from Iran's pre-Islamic period into the Islamic present.

Letters To Some-One

Not just words, but Lives Written

By: Kartik Gupta,Manya

Letters" are one of an ancient means of communication the world has known. In this modern world, writing a letter to someone and expressing your thoughts, views and feelings has become a distant reality! However, we all know that there is always a part that we never speak and is hidden somewhere in the corners of our heart urging to be known to that "Special Someone". To let the world know what is it that our heart holds within and to give a sneak peak of what it feels to witness something from one's end, it is absolutely essential to pen down those feelings and lay them bare infront of the world. Letters To SomeOne is an attempt to give that part a voice of its own, to let that "feeling" finally reach the destination it was always meant for. Various writers across the different geographical locations showed the courage to open their hearts with you as readers and the entire world confiding in you that maybe, one fine day, the feeling is understood by you and the letters they have written ultimately serve the purpose for what they were meant for!!
