Synopsis

New York State was a center of industry during World War II. New York aviation companies designed many of the greatest combat aircraft of the era, and bustling armies of women and men helped quickly churn them out by the thousands. More than one fourth of all US warplanes came from New York drawing boards during the war. These planes saw combat service everywhere, holding the line in the deserts of North Africa and flying from aircraft carriers plying the vast Pacific Ocean. Others operated over the frozen tundra of Alaska and Siberia. New York aircraft flew tons of fuel, ammunition, and supplies over the treacherous Himalayan Mountains into China, relentlessly hounded enemy submarines and ships, and battered Axis strongholds all the way to victory.

    A delicious and delightful narrative history of pie in America 
     
    From pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving to apple pie on the Fourth of July, nearly every American shares a certain nostalgia for a simple circle of crust and filling. But for centuries, pie has been a malleable icon, equally enjoyed at the table and coopted for social and political purposes. After all, it was a slice of cherry pie denied  
    at the Woolworth’s lunch counter that ignited a wave of anti-segregation protests across the South during the civil rights movement. Molasses pie, a Southern favorite, captures the legacies of racial trauma and oppression passed down from America’s history of slavery, and Jell-O pie exemplifies the pressures and  
    contradictions of gender roles in an evolving modern society. We all know the warm comfort of the so-called all-American apple pie … but just how did pie become the symbol of a nation? 
     
    In Sweet Land of Liberty: A History of America in 11 Pies, food writer Rossi Anastopoulo cracks open our relationship to pie with wit and good humor. She traces the pies woven into our history, following the evolution of our country across centuries of innovation and change and examining how America’s  
    relationship with this iconic dessert impacted culture across eras—and vice versa.  
     
    With corresponding recipes for each chapter, Sweet Land of Liberty is an entertaining, informative, and utterly charming food history for bakers, dessert lovers, and history aficionados alike. Ultimately, the story of pie is the story of America itself, and it’s time to dig in.

    What exactly is capitalism? How has the meaning of capitalism changed over time? And what's at stake in our understanding or misunderstanding of it? In Capitalism, Michael Sonenscher examines the history behind the concept and pieces together the range of subjects bound up with the word. Sonenscher shows that many of our received ideas fail to pick up the work that the idea of capitalism is doing for us, without us even realizing it. 
     
     
     
    "Capitalism" was first coined in France in the early nineteenth century. It began as a fusion of two distinct sets of ideas. The first involved thinking about public debt and war finance. The second involved thinking about the division of labor. Sonenscher shows that thinking about the first has changed radically over time. Funding welfare has been added to funding warfare, bringing many new questions in its wake. Thinking about the second set of ideas has offered far less room for maneuver. The division of labor is still the division of labor and the debates and discussions that it once generated have now been largely forgotten. By exploring what lay behind the earlier distinction before it collapsed and was eroded by the passage of time, Sonenscher shows why the present range of received ideas limits our political options and the types of reform we might wish for.

    Do you find yourself constantly struggling with a racing mind, unable to focus on one task at a time? Are you plagued by anxiety and find yourself obsessing over certain activities, even if they lead to exhaustion? 
    If so, you may be one of the many women living with ADHD. 
    Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or ADHD, is a condition that affects millions of people around the world, and yet, it is often misunderstood and underdiagnosed in women. Despite being diagnosed and treated more often in men, ADHD affects women just as much, if not more. Unfortunately, there is a lack of information and research on ADHD in women, leading to a lack of understanding and support. 
    One of the biggest challenges for women with ADHD is getting diagnosed. Unlike boys, girls are more inconspicuous and less likely to have poor school performance, which is often the first red flag for ADHD. Additionally, girls are more likely than boys to have the predominantly inattentive type without hyperactivity and fewer behavior problems in clinical practice. As a result, many women come to know their ADHD when their children are diagnosed. 
    This book is an essential guide for women who suspect they have ADHD, as well as for their loved ones. We provide information on how to recognize the symptoms, how to seek professional help and how to take control of your life. We also discuss the importance of self-care, how to manage the disorder, and how to advocate for yourself in the medical and educational systems. 
    Don't let ADHD control your life any longer. Learn how to take control and find the support you deserve with this informative and empowering audiobook. With the right knowledge, tools, and support, you can learn to live a fulfilling and successful life despite the challenges of ADHD 
    Don't wait any longer, order your copy now and take the first step towards understanding and managing your ADHD
