Summary

In "The Bread-winners: A Social Study," John Hay presents a detailed exploration of the intricate dynamics of American life in the late 19th century. Through a blend of sociological analysis and narrative prose, Hay delves into the struggles of working-class families, the impact of industrialization, and the quest for economic stability. His literary style is marked by a keen observation of social nuances and an empathetic tone, positioning the book as a poignant commentary on the pressures of modernity and capitalism. The work is situated within the growing discourse on labor and economic disparity, capturing the zeitgeist of a nation grappling with rapid change. John Hay, notably a politician, diplomat, and journalist, was deeply influenced by the social upheavals of his time. His first-hand experiences and extensive travels informed his understanding of societal structures and the plight of the working class. As a contemporary of prominent social reformers, Hay's writing reflects a genuine concern for the human condition, as well as a recognition of the broader economic forces at play. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in social history, labor studies, and American literature. Hay's insightful observations offer valuable perspectives on the intricacies of socio-economic relationships and will resonate with those seeking to comprehend the foundations of contemporary social issues.

    "Polite-Ticks: Blood-Sucking Policy Seeks Healthy Hosts" 
In this riotous and tweezer-grabbing political satire, "Polite-Ticks" exposes the parasitic side of modern politics, where politicians and lobbyists act like blood-sucking ticks. They latch onto democracy, slowly draining it dry while hiding behind handshakes and promises. With biting humor and real-world examples, this book uncovers how polite ticks bloat the budget, erode freedoms, and divide society—all while keeping the host (that’s us) blissfully unaware. Packed with hilarious insights, sharp sarcasm, and a civil anarchy plan to take back control, this is your guide to spotting the polite ticks feeding on your future and finally giving them the boot, fire, and flush they deserve!

    The Poverty of Philosophy

    Marx started work on this book in January 1847, as can be judged from Engel's letter to Marx on January 15, 1847. By the beginning of April 1847, Marx's work was completed in the main and had gone to the press. On June 15, 1847, he wrote a short foreword.Published in Paris and Brussels in 1847, the book was not republished in full during Marx's lifetime. Excerpts from section five of Chapter Two appeared in different years, mostly between 1872 - 1875 in papers such as La Emancipacion, Der Volksstaat, Social-Demokrat, and others. In 1880 Marx attempted to publish the Poverty of Philosophy in the French socialist newspaper L'Égalité, the organ of the French Workers' Party, but only the foreword and section one of Chapter One were published.This translation is from the original 1847 French edition. It has been updated to also include the changes/corrections Marx made in the copy of the book he presented to N. Utina in 1876, as well as the corrections made by Frederick Engels in the second French edition and the German editions of 1885 and 1892. The first English edition of this work was published in 1900 by Twentieth Century Press.

     In the early 1900's Dr. Maria Montessori began to reform educational methods with her work the 'Case dei Bambini' in Rome, Italy. Montessori began her work by developing methods to educate mentally retarded children, the method she developed was used with several children who at age eight took the state examinations in reading and writing, the children passed with above average scores. Because of this success (which is known as the 'first Montessori Miracle') Dr. Montessori was asked to open a school for children in Rome which she did. It was called the Case dei Bambini or “Children's House”. Now 101 years after the opening of the first Children's House we have recorded the first English translation of "The Montessori Method" by Maria Montessori. This book explains the Montessori Method of Education which supports “spontaneous self-development” of children and is used in the Case dei Bambini as well as many many Montessori Schools through out the world.
