Sinopsis

"Button Revolution Impact" unveils the surprisingly significant history of buttons, demonstrating their profound influence on clothing and society. Far from being mere fasteners, buttons catalyzed changes in clothing technology, fashion trends, and garment manufacturing. The book reveals that the rise of buttons facilitated more tailored clothing, impacting social norms and perceptions of the body, while the mass production of buttons transformed the garment industry, making fashion more accessible.

 
The book explores the evolution of button design and materials, their impact on clothing styles, and their influence on industrial garment production. It delves into how new materials shaped button design and how industrialization led to widespread availability. Using sources like archaeological findings and trade catalogs, the book traces the journey from primitive fasteners to mass-produced buttons.

 
Organized into three parts, the book first introduces pre-button methods and early button forms. It then analyzes the button's impact on tailored clothing and sartorial trends, before exploring the industrial production of buttons. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of how buttons revolutionized clothing and contributed to broader societal changes.

    PREPARE TO BE BEAKED BY THE MAJESTIC EAGLE OF HISTORY 
     
      
     
    Most of us are familiar with the greatest hits and legendary heroes of US history. In George Washington Is Cash Money, Cory O'Brien, author of Zeus Grants Stupid Wishes, does away with the pomp and circumstance and calls America's history what it is: one long, violent soap opera. In his signature clever, crude, and cuss-ridden style, O'Brien reminds us that: 
     
      
      
    ● Teddy Roosevelt stopped bullets with his manly chest 
     
     
     
    ● Harriet Tubman avoided danger by having prophetic seizures. 
     
     
     
    ● Joseph Smith invented Mormonism by staring into a hat full of rocks. 
     
     
     
    ● Billy the Kid was finally defeated by the smell of fresh bacon. 
     
     
      
    And there's plenty more Star Spangled stupidity where that came from.

    We Hold Our Breath - A Journey...

    Developed as the commercial hub of the Texas cotton and sugarcane industries, Houston was designed for profit, not stability. Its first residents razed swamplands into submission to construct a maze of highways and suburbs, giving the city a sprawling, centerless energy as storms and floods rattled coastal Texas. 
     
     
     
    When Hurricane Harvey made landfall in 2017, Fields set off from his home in Iowa back to the battered city of his childhood to rescue his mother. Fields tracks the devastation of Hurricane Harvey, one storm in a long lineage that threatens the fourth largest city in America. 
     
     
     
    Fields depicts the history of Houston with reverence and lyrical certainty, investigating the conflicting facets of Texan identity that are steeped in racial subjugation, environmental collapse, and capitalist greed. He writes of the development of the modern city in the wake of the destruction of Galveston in 1900; of the oil booms and busts that shaped the city; of the unchecked lust for growth that makes Houston so expressive of the American dream. 
     
     
     
    We Hold Our Breath is a portrait of a city that exists despite it all, a city whose story has always been one of war waged relentlessly against water.

    Fridays of Rage provides a glimpse into how Al Jazeera strategically cast its journalists as martyrs in the struggle for Arab freedom while promoting itself as the mouthpiece and advocate of the Arab public. 
     
     
     
    In addition to heralding a new era of Arab democracy, Al Jazeera has become a major influence over Arab perceptions of American involvement in the Arab World, the Arab-Israeli conflict, the rise of global Islamic fundamentalism, and the expansion of the political far right. Al Jazeera's blueprint for "Muslim-democracy" was part of a vision announced by the network during its earliest broadcasts. The network embarked upon a mission to reconstruct the Arab mindset and psyche. Al Jazeera introduced exiled Islamist leaders to the larger Arab public while also providing Muslim feminists a platform. 
     
     
     
    The inclusion and consideration of Westerners, Israelis, Hamas, secularists, and others earned the network a reputation for pluralism and inclusiveness. Al Jazeera presented a mirror to an Arab world afraid to examine itself and its democratic deficiencies. But rather than assuming that Al Jazeera is a monolithic force for positive transformation in Arab society, Fridays of Rage examines the potentially dark implications of Al Jazeera's radical re-conceptualization of media as a strategic tool or weapon.

    A two-time Pulitzer finalist explores the story of American urban design through San Francisco's iconic Ferry Building. 
     
     
     
    Conceived in the Gilded Age, the Ferry Building opened in 1898 as San Francisco's portal to the world—the terminus of the transcontinental railway and a showcase of civic ambition. In silent films and World's Fair postcards, nothing said "San Francisco" more than its soaring clock tower. But as acclaimed architectural critic John King recounts, the rise of the automobile and double-deck freeways severed the city from its beloved structure. King's narrative spans the rise and fall and rebirth of the Ferry Building, introducing colorful figures who fought to preserve its character (and the city's soul)—from architect Arthur Page Brown and legendary columnist Herb Caen to poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Senator Dianne Feinstein. A microcosm of the changing American waterfront, the saga of the Ferry Building explores the tensions of tourism and development—and the threat that sea level rise poses to a landmark that in the twenty-first century remains as vital as ever.
