Sinopsis

"The French Revolution" presents a compelling examination of one of history's most transformative periods, exploring how France's dramatic shift from feudal monarchy to modern nation-state fundamentally altered the course of European history.This comprehensive analysis traces the convergence of economic crisis, social inequality, and Enlightenment philosophy that ignited a decade of unprecedented change from 1789 to 1799, establishing principles that would shape democratic movements worldwide. The book uniquely approaches the revolution through multiple social perspectives, moving beyond traditional accounts focused solely on political leaders to include the experiences of peasants, urban workers, women, and clergy.Through careful analysis of primary sources, including newly discovered provincial records and personal diaries, readers gain insight into how the collapse of absolute monarchy, the emergence of democratic ideals, and the complex relationship between popular violence and political reform transformed French society.Following a chronological progression from the 1780s financial crisis through pivotal events like the Tennis Court Oath and the Reign of Terror, the narrative weaves together economic, social, and political threads to demonstrate how revolutionary France established new concepts of citizenship, national identity, and individual rights. The book's accessible academic style makes complex historical concepts understandable while maintaining scholarly rigor, offering valuable insights for both students and general readers interested in understanding the origins of modern democratic systems and social justice movements.

    Even with new health-care policies, it's clear that health-care costs will continue to rise dramatically. While individuals may get better coverage, businesses will have the same problem they've had for the last four decades. Health care, one of corporate America's largest expenses, is growing at double-digit rates, and nothing done in Washington will change that. 
     
     
     
    But one company set out to tame the beast of rising health-care costs. Serigraph, Inc., a Wisconsin-based manufacturer of decorative parts, and its chairman, John Torinus, did what Washington can't or won't do: reduce cost increases to less than two percent while improving the quality of health care for its employees. The implications for corporate America are staggering—the opportunity for genuine reform in an expense category that has been spiraling out of control. 
     
     
     
    The Company That Solved Health Care describes the fascinating details of Serigraph's program and shows how any company can achieve similar results. This book is a must-listen for any manager responsible for his or her company's health-care expenses, any academic or thinker involved in the health-care debate, and anyone who wants to better understand why health-care costs have been rising and what can be done to achieve price stability while improving patient care.

    Shortly after the first Europeans arrived in seventeenth-century New England, they began to import Africans and capture the area's indigenous peoples as slaves. By the eve of the American Revolution, enslaved people comprised only about 4 percent of the population, but slavery had become instrumental to the region's economy and had shaped its cultural traditions. This story of slavery in New England has been little told. 
     
     
     
    In this concise yet comprehensive history, Jared Ross Hardesty focuses on the individual stories of enslaved people, bringing their experiences to life. He also explores larger issues such as the importance of slavery to the colonization of the region and to agriculture and industry, New England's deep connections to Caribbean plantation societies, and the significance of emancipation movements in the era of the American Revolution. Thoroughly researched and engagingly written, Black Lives, Native Lands, White Worlds is a must-listen for anyone interested in the history of New England.

    The Masonic legend of the building of Solomon's Temple does not in every particular parallel the Scriptural version, especially in those portions relating to CHiram Abiff. According to the Biblical account, this Master workman returned to his own country; in the Masonic allegory he is foully murdered. On this point A. E. Waite, in his New Encyclopædia of Freemasonry, makes the following explanatory comment: 
    "The legend of the Master-Builder is the great allegory of Masonry. It happens that his figurative story is grounded on the fact of a personality mentioned in Holy Scripture, but this historical background is of the accidents and not the essence; the significance is in the allegory and not in any point of history which may lie behind it."
