Summary

In "John Dewey: Philosophical Works," the seminal American philosopher encapsulates his innovative contributions to pragmatism, education, and democracy. Dewey's writing style is marked by clarity and a commitment to practical implications, making complex philosophical concepts accessible to a broader audience. The collection reflects the early 20th-century intellectual climate, emphasizing the interplay between experience and thought, thus situating Dewey within the larger context of American idealism while challenging traditional dogmas of the time. His philosophical inquiries extend beyond abstract theorizing to address pressing social issues, advocating for progressive education and experiential learning as essential to fostering a democratic society. John Dewey (1859-1952) was a pivotal figure in the development of modern educational theory and social reform, deeply influenced by his experiences within the context of an evolving America. His philosophical journey was informed by a belief in the social nature of knowledge and the importance of education as a vehicle for social change. Dewey's teachings at institutions like the University of Chicago and Columbia University reflect his dedication to creating a more participatory democratic society, a vision that permeates this collection of his works. For readers interested in philosophy, education, or social theory, "John Dewey: Philosophical Works" is an essential anthology that provides insight into Dewey's transformative ideas. This collection not only enhances understanding of his philosophical legacy but also serves as a guide for contemporary discourses on democracy and learning, making it invaluable for scholars, educators, and anyone seeking to engage with Dewey's enduringly relevant ideas.

    A long-treasured but forgotten classic of folk healing, with an introduction and commentary by the author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil. 
 
 
 
Ossman & Steel's Guide to Health or Household Instructor (its original title) is a collection of spells, remedies, and charms. The book draws from the old Pennsylvania Dutch and German powwow healing practices that in turn helped shape Appalachian folk healing, conjure, root work, and many folk healing traditions in America. Jake Richards, author of Backwoods Witchcraft and Doctoring the Devil, puts these remedies in context, with practical advice for modern-day "backwoods" healers interested in using them today. 
 
 
 
The first part contains spells and charms for healing wounds, sties, broken bones, maladies, and illnesses of all sorts. The second part includes other folk remedies using ingredients based on sympathetic reasoning, including sulfuric acid, gunpowder, or other substances for swelling, toothache, headache, and so on. These remedies are presented here for historic interest, to help better understand how folk medicine evolved in America. It is Jake Richards's hope that reintroducing this work will reestablish its position as a useful household helper in the library of every witch or country healer.

    A Very Merry Matchup Machine

    A Very Merry Matchup Machine is a sharp, warm look at how holiday rom-coms, small towns, and well-meaning relatives turn December into a matchmaking factory—and what that does to anyone who doesn’t fit the script. Starting from the cozy chaos of a Christmas romance full of pageants, cocoa and “accidental” setups, this book opens the casing of the holiday-love machine to examine the gears underneath: the pressure to be coupled by year’s end, the way communities act like human algorithms, and the quiet shame of spending the season unresolved. 
Rather than mocking the genre or worshipping it, A Very Merry Matchup Machine shows how these stories can be both comforting and coercive. It offers a more honest version of “merry,” one that makes room for single people who aren’t projects, relationships that begin off-season, and Decembers where the most radical pairing is you with your own life. It’s for anyone who loves holiday movies, feels strange inside them, and wants to carry the glow into January without the algorithm deciding what happiness should look like.

    "Groskop skillfully juggles memoir, biography, philosophy, and literary criticism to create a delightful tour through some of French literature's greats." —Madeline Miller, New York Times bestselling author 
 
 
 
Like many people the world over, Viv Groskop wishes she was a little more French. A writer, comedian, and journalist, Groskop studied the language obsessively starting at age eleven, and spent every vacation in France, desperate to escape her Englishness and to have some French chic rub off on her. In Au Revoir, Tristesse, Groskop mixes literary history and memoir to explore how the classics of French literature can infuse our lives with joie de vivre and teach us how to say goodbye to sadness. From the frothy hedonism of Colette and the wit of Cyrano de Bergerac to the intoxicating universe of Marguerite Duras and the heady passions of Les Liaisons dangereuses, this is a love letter to great French writers. With chapters on Marcel Proust, Victor Hugo, Gustave Flaubert, Stendhal, Honoré de Balzac, Albert Camus, and of course Françoise Sagan, this is a must-listen for book lovers everywhere.
