American Indian Education, 2nd Edition

Reyhner, Jon / Eder, Jeanne
American Indian Education, 2nd Edition
Before Europeans arrived in North America, Indigenous peoples spoke more than three hundred languages and followed almost as many distinct belief systems and lifeways. But in childrearing, the different Indian societies had certain practices in common-including training for survival and teaching tribal traditions. The history of American Indian education from colonial times to the present is a story of how Euro-Americans disrupted and suppress...

A Politician Thinking: The Creative Mind of James Madison

Rakove, Jack N.
A Politician Thinking: The Creative Mind of James Madison
James Madison presented his most celebrated and studied political ideas in his contributions to The Federalist, the essays that he, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay wrote in 1787-1788 to secure ratification of the U.S. Constitution. As Jack N. Rakove shows in A Politician Thinking, however, those essays do not illustrate the full complexity and vigor of Madison's thinking. In this book, Rakove pushes beyond what Madison thought to examine how ...

Managed Care and Monopoly Power

Haas-Wilson, Deborah
Managed Care and Monopoly Power
As millions of Americans are aware, health care costs continue to increase rapidly. Much of this increase in health care costs is due to the development of new life-sustaining drugs and procedures, but part of it is due to the increased monopoly power of physicians, insurance companies, and hospitals, as the health care sector undergoes reorganization and consolidation. There are two tools to limit the growth of monopoly power: government regu...

In so doing, Holquist provides a new genealogy for Bolshevik political practices, one that places them clearly among Russian and European wartime measures. From this perspective, the Russian Revolution...

Victory and Vexation in Science

Holton, Gerald
Victory and Vexation in Science
This book shows why, at any given time--even in the mature phase of science--there exists no single "paradigm, " but rather a spectrum of competing perspectives. Whether considering conflicts between Heisenberg and Einstein, Bohr and Einstein, or P. W. Bridgman and B. F. Skinner, tracing I. I. Rabi's shift of attention from superb science to education and scientific statesmanship--in each case, Holton demonstrates a masterly understanding of m...
