Summary

Evolution of Homework explores the surprisingly complex history of homework, from its rare origins to its current, almost universal presence in education. It examines the changing pedagogical philosophies that have shaped homework, highlighting how cultural and societal shifts have influenced its practice. The book delves into whether homework's implementation is effective and equitable, providing a critical context to assess its role and future in education.

 
The book is structured to guide readers through this history, beginning with the earliest known uses of homework and their rationales, then detailing its expansion during industrialization. It addresses challenges to homework that arose during the progressive education movement and subsequent debates about workload and educational effectiveness.

 
Contemporary research into homework and its links to academic performance, student well-being, and equity are also explored. This book differentiates itself by providing a historical analysis combined with a review of contemporary research, challenging readers to reconsider their preconceived notions about homework. It avoids simply advocating for or against homework, instead offering a fact-based, nuanced perspective relevant to educators, policymakers, and parents.

    A psychoanalyst's sensitive exploration of schizophrenia through the stories and words of three women patients 
     
     
      
    In the spring of 1994, psychoanalyst-in-training Steven Poser arrived for his clinical internship at one of the last remaining nineteenth-century mental hospitals in New England. Intending to observe and offer compassionate care to the most chronically ill patients, he ended up staying for two years, forming close therapeutic relationships with three female patients suffering from schizophrenia, "Agnes," "Mrs. Lutzky," and "Lucia." 
     
     
      
    Drawing from his clinical diary, Poser presents his encounters with the women in their own words, each speaking in a poetry of her own invention. Rather than treat the women as casualties of their illness or their words and actions as nonsensical, Poser sees his patients as dignified and struggling people—and not as markedly different from the rest of us as we might think. This is a deeply human book about the frailty and importance of human connection and the intangibly healing force of being heard.

    Customers know Brown's Chicken for its crispy buttermilk fried chicken and flaky biscuits. The Illinois-based franchise has a reputation for delicious but simple comfort food. But through no fault of its own, the words "Brown's Chicken" are also synonymous with one fateful night in January of 1993."A Real Hometown" is the trite but apt motto of Palatine, Illinois, a quaint middle-class suburb west of Chicago. On a snowy Friday evening, the staff and owners of the city's local Brown's Chicken franchise were closing up when two final customers arrived just past 9pm. As the night drew on and the employees hadn't returned home, the families of the owners and workers began to worry, prompting police to investigate. When they entered the dark building, police were shocked to find seven bodies stacked in the restaurant's freezer and fridge. The killers, of course, were long gone. In the months that followed, the horrendous story rocked Chicagoland and the case remained unsolved for nine years.The Brown's Chicken massacre is one of the most infamous cases in Illinois history, yet it is often misremembered. In Something Big, Patrick Wohl gives a new account of the story, taking listeners behind the scenes and sharing the perspective of the people who lived it.
