Sinopse

Academic Textbook Trends explores the evolving world of educational resources in higher education, moving beyond traditional models. It examines how instructors and students adapt to digital learning, the rise of open educational resources (OER), and the impact of cost on student access. This academic textbook uniquely analyzes the shift in adoption patterns, pricing sensitivities, and the integration of digital learning platforms like learning management systems (LMS). For example, the book looks at how the increasing costs of traditional textbooks are pushing students and faculty toward more affordable learning solutions, such as e-books and courseware. 

 
The book approaches the topic by blending quantitative data from publisher reports and student surveys with qualitative insights from faculty interviews. It delves into specific areas such as textbook adoption across disciplines and the impact of OER initiatives. The book progresses logically, beginning with an introduction that sets the stage, followed by chapters analyzing data, and concluding with implications for the future of textbook development.

 
This makes Academic Textbook Trends valuable for educators, administrators, and publishers seeking to enhance learning outcomes and ensure equitable access to educational materials in a rapidly changing landscape.

Steel Drivin' Man: John Henry...

Scott Reynolds Nelson

The ballad "John Henry" is the most recorded folk song in American history and John Henry--the mighty railroad man who could blast through rock faster than a steam drill--is a towering figure in our culture. 
In Steel Drivin' Man, Scott Reynolds Nelson recounts the true story of the man behind the iconic American hero, telling the poignant tale of a young Virginia convict who died working on one of the most dangerous enterprises of the time, the first rail route through the Appalachian Mountains. Using census data, penitentiary reports, and railroad company reports, Nelson reveals how John Henry, victimized by Virginia's notorious Black Codes, was shipped to the infamous Richmond Penitentiary to become prisoner number 497, and was forced to labor on the mile-long Lewis Tunnel for the C&O railroad. Equally important, Nelson masterfully captures the life of the ballad of John Henry, tracing the song's evolution from the first printed score by blues legend W. C. Handy, to Carl Sandburg's use of the ballad to become the first "folk singer," to the upbeat version by Tennessee Ernie Ford. 
Attractively illustrated with numerous images, Steel Drivin' Man offers a marvelous portrait of a beloved folk song--and a true American legend.

Corporate And Family Governance

Christos A. Christou

Corporate Governance regulates not only interactions between shareholders, management and oversight bodies such as boards of directors, but also ensures appropriate checks and balances exist that can preserve and enhance the viability of any business, including any family-owned business. Family Governance regulates the interactions between a family-owned business and the family owning the business, as well as between the members of the owning family. When both are present and functioning well, the prospects of longevity for the family business and the preservation of the ownership of the business in the family are both enhanced. When one or both disciplines are absent or not functioning well, these prospects are undermined. So, Corporate and Family Governance are not sufficient but they are necessary conditions for the continued viability of a family-owned business and the continued family ownership of the business across multiple generations.
