Founding Brothers is not a broad historical narrative, but nor does it claim to be. Instead, Joseph Ellis takes several vignettes from the Revolutionary era, provides the reader with historically-sound accounts, places the events in context, and weaves them into his thematic arguments. Two of the more interesting and insightful arguments he advances are (1) that our nation has had multiple "histories" since the moment of its founding, thus helping to explain ideological differences throughout the nation's history, and (2) that the personalities of and relationships amongst members of the Revolutionary generation profoundly shaped, and continue to shape, the government of United States. An enjoyable and educational read; recommended for lawbots and non-lawbots alike.

A classic Dr. Suess book about trying something new. The man never tried green eggs and ham but he always called it digusting. Unitl one day he tries it and he loves it. I would use this book when i talk to my class about diversity and how people are different even when it comes to the kinds of foods they eat.

It's a little sad when a book fails to do what is obviously stated as its goal in its very own title. I saw this book in the stacks at the Reg while looking for something else and thought, "Wow! Perfect!" because it dealt with the major themes I've been focused on of late, and having something to tie it all together would be really great. But the "integrating" doesn't really happen here. Rosemary Radford Ruether does link together ecofeminism and the world religions, and discusses how the major world religions may or may not be currently amenable either to feminism or to sustainability and environmentalism. Likewise, she details how globalization fails to satisfy any ecofeminist principles, as the multinational corporations pushing the current model of globalization are regularly behind the removal of rights of women and all citizens as well as major environmental damage. But these links have been made in numerous books before. For a better look at the relationship between all the world religions and the environment, Richard Foltz's Worldviews, Religion, and the Environment is a much more thorough representation of the reflection currently be done in this area, as are Grim and Tucker's Worldviews and Ecology and J. Baird Callicott's Earth's Insights: A Multicultural Survey of Ecological Ethics (both are shorter and perhaps a bit more readable than the Foltz). As for the relationship between globalization and ecofeminism, the majority of what Ruether says is pulled from the work of Vandana Shiva. True, on both topics Ruether is able to condense information incredibly well to provide a good, if not well-argued, overview. But the link that I was really hoping to see here is that of the relationship between the world religions, especially as they are gaining a stronger environmental consciousness, with the process of globalization. The basic jump is there and can be made by the reader: if one's religious beliefs lead you to care for the environment or for human rights, you should be concerned about the activity of corporations. However, no historical link between the religions as institutions with other corporations is made, nor is there any offering of how the church, the first truly global institution, might integrate philosophically or theologically an anti-globalization stance. In her conclusion, she does provide examples of religious orders that have developed along the lines of other anti-globalization movements, in terms of returning to local, organic food production. She also points out the the theological problems with the support of U.S. militaristic imperialism by many U.S. Christians. (Basically, belief in the U.S. as a chosen nation by God, that evil is socially located in others, and that the U.S. should remove this evil by force, contradicts the Christian beliefs that all people are fallen from grace, and that God yet loves all people and works through all people, and that Christians are to work lovingly and peacefully, not through force.) Unfortunately, though, the larger picture of religion-corporate relations are not addressed. It is true that Ruether's book may work well for anyone wanting a quick intro to all these themes and the ways in which they are most basically connected. For readers looking for a clearly articulated defense of any of the positions Ruether takes, however, as well as for readers with background in these topics truly looking to integrate them, there are probably better books to turn to.

Even while I wasn't reading, I found myself thinking about the different concepts introduced and watching myself a little more closely. I think it was helpful to see the perspective, even fictionalized, of a devil tempting someone on Earth. Fascinating.

Neil deGrasse Tyson is just fantastic, and I loved this history of the "rise and re-imagination" of America's favorite planet (mine is always Earth--still the prettiest!). The letters from kids and curmudgeons and colleagues are fantastic, and as always, Tyson makes science understandable and brings its power to fire up our imaginations to the forefront.

I enjoyed reading this book;Maybe not the best book I ever read but, I am a sucker for happy ending and totally corny love stories. As I was reading the book I just could not help but think about how close this book parallels with "City of Angels" movie with Nicholas Cage and Meg Ryan. It was almost the same and I was hoping as I was reading the book that it would not have the same fate as the movie.

He has a girlfriend, and is on the high school soccer team, he a great soccer player, and has the chance of getting a scholarship for college. Robby and his friend go to the football game and have a few beers before the game. But Robby see's the girlf from one of his classes and go's to hang out with her. later Robby finds out that his friend had been in car accident, he was okay. But they got in trouble for it. And the more time Robby and Petunia/Pet spend together, te more chemistry they have. Robby then finds out that he likes this girl a lot. So i think you should all read this book because it is really good. Its a great love story.

Bu kitap mükemmeldi! ve böyle hızlı bir okuma. Hikayeler arasındaki bağlantılardan şaşırdım ve bağlantıların nedenlerini ve nasıl olduğunu daha iyi anlamak için tekrar okumak için durabilirim. Sonu bana oldukça ani geldi, ama bununla ilgileniyorum. Ne yazık ki, klişeleşmiş Çin kuzeninin fantastik ve doğru işarete dahil olduğunu buldum. Bu karakterler ve Amerika'da büyüdükçe, değiştiklerinde ve kendileri olduklarında hayatlarının bu kısa döneminden sonra hayatlarının nasıl ilerlediği hakkında daha fazla okumak istiyorum.
