Beschreibung

Transportation Revolution Growth explores how technological advancements in railroads, automobiles, and aviation reshaped society, impacting trade, travel, and global interconnectedness. It examines the historical, social, and scientific climates that fostered these innovations, arguing that their synergistic development acted as a catalyst for global integration and economic expansion. For example, the rise of railroads significantly boosted industrial growth and westward expansion, while the advent of aviation transformed global interactions. 

 
The book progresses from the early stages of railroad development to the rise of the automobile and finally delves into the advent of aviation. By tracing this evolution, the book demonstrates how these three modes of transportation converged to create a dynamic and interconnected world. It adopts a holistic perspective, examining the technological, economic, social, and cultural dimensions of this transformation, incorporating diverse sources like engineering schematics and firsthand accounts. This approach makes it valuable for students, scholars, and general readers interested in understanding the historical roots of modern transportation systems.

    NOT ONE MORE DAY is Candice Morrow’s gripping story of surviving family and spousal abuse, breaking destructive generational cycles & claiming personal power. 
    Raised in an abusive, violent home, Candice later married a man who broke her bones, bruised her body, berated her, and even had her placed behind bars. She lived in constant fear, trying to survive while raising her two young sons. 
    For years, Candice’s family had told her she was too stupid to attend college. But these six words, spoken by a young woman she’d just met, changed everything: “Why don’t you go to college?” 
    Candice knew education was her only way out. Battling ADHD and dyslexia, she earned her nursing degree while enduring unimaginable abuse, pain, and fear. 
    NOT ONE MORE DAY is a lifeline for those who feel trapped, a source of strength for those fighting their way out, and a tribute to those refusing to give up. With unflinching candor, Candice Morrow recounts the terrifying realities of domestic violence and the immense challenges she faced after leaving her abuser––and celebrates the vibrant career and peaceful life she’s now enjoying.

    The first of two volumes of key texts from American philosopher Charles Sanders Peirce, the father of pragmatism.“Often considered the greatest American philosopher, Peirce produced no comprehensive treatise; until now, students and scholars had to read through widely scattered papers to gain an overall view of his thought. This anthology remedies that situation by offering a full representation of his work, including several hard-to-obtain items. . . . Highly recommended for scholarly collections.” —Library JournalA convenient two-volume reader's edition makes accessible to students and scholars the most important philosophical papers of the brilliant American thinker Charles Sanders Peirce. Volume 1 presents twenty-five key texts, chronologically arranged, beginning with Peirce’s “On a New List of Categories” of 1867, a highly regarded alternative to Kantian philosophy, and ending with the first sustained and systematic presentation of his evolutionary metaphysics in the Monist Metaphysical Series of 1891–1893. The book features a clear introduction and informative headnotes to help readers grasp the nature and significance of Peirce’s thought system. Bringing together all the writings needed for the study of Peirce’s systematic philosophy and its development, Volume 1 is ideal for classroom use. Volume 2, covering the period from 1894 until Peirce’s death in 1914, will highlight the development of his system of signs and his mature pragmatism.“A first-rate edition, which supersedes all other portable Peirces. . . . All the Peirce most people will ever need.” —Louis Menand, The New York Review of Books“The Monist essays are included in the first volume of the compact and welcome Essential Peirce; they are by Peirce's standards quite accessible and splendid in their cosmic scope and assertiveness.” ―London Review of Books

    In a world we cannot recognize, how do we find a way forward? In this world we do not understand, how do we know what to do? When so little is comprehensible, what is meaningful work? What is genuine contribution? 
     
    Bestselling author Margaret Wheatley has summoned us to be courageous leaders who strengthen community and rely on fully engaged people since her 1992 classic book, Leadership and the New Science, and eight subsequent books. In response to how quickly society is changing and the exponential increase in leadership challenges, this second edition of her latest bestseller is 80% new material. 
     
    How do we see clearly so that we can act wisely? Wheatley brings present reality into clear and troubling focus using multiple lenses of Western and Indigenous sciences, and the historic patterns of collapse in complex civilizations. With gentle but insistent guidance to face reality, she offers us the path and practices to be sane leaders who know how to evoke people's inherent generosity, creativity, and kindness. 
     
    Skillfully weaving science, history, exemplars, poetry, and quotes with stories and practices, Wheatley asks us to be Warriors for the Human Spirit, leaders and citizens who stay engaged, choose service over self, stand steadfast in the midst of crises, and offer our reliable presence of compassion and insight no matter what.

    Born into the brutal reality of slavery, Ida B. Wells rose to become an audacious journalist, teacher, and activist for racial and gender justice. In Radical Advocate, Mary E. Triece examines the rhetorical strategies employed by Wells to challenge deeply rooted systems of oppression, strategies that remain powerful and relevant today. 
     
    Triece introduces the concept of "radical embodied advocacy" to give an account of Wells's unique position as a Black woman whose personal encounters with white violence were palpable, experienced physically and mentally. White men lynched Wells's friends and threatened her own life, forcing her into exile after destroying the very press on which she wrote and edited. From this perspective, Wells understood lynching as linked to white economic and political control. Through a close analysis of Wells's speeches, writings, and journalism, Triece reveals how Wells pioneered a form of "intersectional journalism" that centered the voices of those marginalized by race, gender, and class. 
     
    Triece underscores the epistemic challenges faced by marginalized advocates and the importance of their perspectives in shaping social change. Radical Advocate positions Wells as a prophetic figure whose insights into the systemic nature of racism remain profoundly relevant in today's world.
