Synopsis

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.

    When do you become an adult? What does it mean to grow up? And what are the experiences that propel us forward ? or keep us stuck? 
     
    As we get older, we pass many milestones, but for some of us it can feel as if adulthood is always just out of reach. 
     
    Journalist and psychotherapist-in-training Moya Sarner goes on a journey into what growing up really involves, and how we do it again and again throughout our lives. She draws on case studies, as well as her training, and theories of child psychology, psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and more, to explore what it means to be a ‘grown up’ and how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of every stage of our lives.

    Runner-up for the Hugo Best Related Book Award (2003)The Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction is a lively account of the role of women and feminism in the development of American science fiction during its formative years, the mid-20th century. Beginning in 1926, with the publication of the first issue of Amazing Stories, Justine Larbalestier examines science fiction's engagement with questions of femininity, masculinity, sex and sexuality. She traces the debates over the place of women and feminism in science fiction as it emerged in stories, letters and articles in science fiction magazines and fanzines. The book culminates in the story of James Tiptree, Jr. and the eponymous Award. Tiptree was a successful science fiction writer of the 1970s who was later discovered to be a woman. Tiptree's easy acceptance by the male-dominated publishing arena of the time proved that there was no necessary difference in the way men and women wrote, but that there was a real difference in the way they were read.

    Theodore Kaczynski, also known as the Unabomber, is a United States murderer, mathematician, and neo-Luddite social critic who carried out a campaign of mail bombings. He was born in Chicago, Illinois, where, as an intellectual child prodigy, he excelled academically from an early age. 
    A considerable amount of credible circumstantial evidence suggests that Kaczynski was the unwitting victim of top secret CIA-sponsored 'MK-ULTRA' mind-control experiments conducted at Harvard University from the fall of 1959 through the spring of 1962. Some experts suggest that these experiments may have been the cause of his emotional problems. 
    Kaczynski eventually received an undergraduate degree from Harvard University and earned a PhD in mathematics from the University of Michigan. He became an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley at age 25 but resigned two years later. 
    In 1971, he moved to a remote cabin without electricity or running water, in Lincoln, Montana, where he began to learn survival skills in an attempt to become self-sufficient. 
    He decided to start his bombing campaign after watching the wilderness around his home get destroyed by development. 
    From 1978 to 1995, Kaczynski sent 16 bombs to targets including universities and airlines, killing three people and injuring 23. Kaczynski sent a letter to The New York Times on April 24, 1995 and promised "to desist from terrorism" if the Times or The Washington Post published his manifesto. In his Industrial Society and Its Future (also called the "Unabomber Manifesto"), he argued that his bombings were extreme but necessary to attract attention to the erosion of human freedom necessitated by modern technologies requiring large-scale organization. 
    included in this volume: 
    -Unnamed Essay 
    -When Non-Violence is Suicide 
    -Hit Where It Hurts 
    -Industrial Society and Its Future (aka The Unabomber Manifesto)
