Sinopse

Hidden Museum Vaults reveals the unseen world of museum storage, where the vast majority of art and historical artifacts reside, awaiting display or undergoing preservation. These vaults, often labyrinthine, are critical for safeguarding our cultural heritage. The book explores the immense scale and logistical complexity of these hidden spaces, highlighting sophisticated preservation methods and the ethical considerations surrounding deaccessioning.

 
The book examines how museums have evolved from private collections to public institutions, necessitating systematic storage practices. For example, the book delves into how environmental monitoring systems are used to maintain optimal preservation conditions, showcasing science's role in preserving artifacts. It also tackles complex issues like repatriation claims, emphasizing museums' ethical responsibilities.

 
The book begins by introducing the concept of museum storage and its historical development, contrasting early disorganized methods with contemporary scientific approaches. It then examines specific storage techniques for diverse materials and addresses dilemmas surrounding deaccessioning policies. Finally, the book culminates by exploring the future of museum storage, considering the impact of digital technologies.

    **Narrated by Stephen J. Dubner** 
     
    The legendary bestseller that made millions look at the world in a radically different way returns in a beautiful 20th anniversary edition featuring a new foreword 
    Which is more dangerous: a gun or a swimming pool? Why do drug dealers still live with their moms? What do real estate agents and the KKK have in common? 
    These may not sound like typical questions for an economist to ask. But Steven D. Levitt is not a typical economist. He is a much-heralded scholar who studies the riddles of everyday life—from cheating and crime to sports and child-rearing—and whose conclusions turn conventional wisdom on its head. Freakonomics is a groundbreaking collaboration between Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, an award-winning author and journalist. Some of these questions concern life-and-death issues; others have an admittedly freakish quality. Thus the new field of study contained in this book: freakonomics. 
    Through forceful storytelling and wry insight, Levitt and Dubner show that economics is, at root, the study of incentives—how people get what they want, or need, especially when other people want or need the same thing. In Freakonomics, they explore the hidden side of everything. The inner workings of a crack gang. The myths of campaign finance. The telltale marks of a cheating schoolteacher. What unites all these stories is a belief that the modern world, despite a great deal of complexity and downright deceit, is not impenetrable, is not unknowable, and—if the right questions are asked—is even more intriguing than we think. All it takes is a new way of looking. Freakonomics establishes this unconventional premise: If morality represents how we would like the world to work, then economics represents how it actually does work. It is true that readers of this book will be armed with enough riddles and stories to last a thousand cocktail parties. But Freakonomics can provide more than that. It will literally redefine the way we view the modern world. 
    This 20th anniversary edition of the book includes a gorgeous new cover design and a new foreword by Stephen Dubner, reflecting on the unexpected impact Freakonomics has had on the world over the last two decades, as well as the New York Times Magazine profile Dubner wrote about Levitt that started it all.

    Richard II from Jacob Abbott's "Makers of History" series details the turbulent and tragic reign of King Richard II of England. First published in 1858, the biography serves as an essential bridge in English history, connecting the glorious feudal age of chivalry to the political instabilities that later sparked the Wars of the Roses.    Abbott paints a vivid portrait of a child-king who inherited a vast empire but lacked the political wisdom, maturity, and humility required to govern his ambitious nobles.    The narrative explores the high peaks of medieval chivalry and the stark reality of Richard's political downfall:    The Black Prince and Feudal Glory: The book opens with the legacy of Richard's father, Edward the "Black Prince," setting a high standard of knightly romance and military fame that young Richard would constantly struggle to live up to.    The Child-King's Coronation: Richard ascends the English throne in 1377 at just ten years old. Abbott describes his magnificent, highly decorated coronation ceremony and the massive councils formed to govern during his youth.  Wat Tyler's Peasants' Revolt: A major highlight of the book is the 1381 popular uprising. Abbott captures the dramatic moment where the 14-year-old Richard bravely confronts the furious rebel mob after their leader, Wat Tyler, is slain, defusing a national crisis.    "Good Queen Anne" and Court Favorites: The narrative covers his marriage to Anne of Bohemia, whose gentle influence earned her immense popularity. It also details Richard's reliance on corrupt, hand-picked court favorites, which alienated the traditional nobility.
