  The definitive short biography of President Lyndon Baines Johnson, based on Robert Dallek's award-winning biographies.Robert Dallek is among the country's most prolific and authoritative presidential biographers. Lyndon Johnson is arguably the president to whom he has devoted his most intensive archival research. This short biography, an adaptation of his two-volume magisterial biography, traces this presidential life from the Texas Hill Country to the House and Senate to the White House. It narrates his passage of a range of crucial legislation, from Medicare and environmental protection to the most significant advances in civil rights for black Americans ever achieved, as well as his continuation of the war in Vietnam. This brief work conveys Johnson as a man of towering intensity and anguished insecurity, of grandiose ambition and grave self-doubt, a man who was brilliant, crude, intimidating, compassionate, overbearing, driven: "A tornado in pants."This volume is being timed to coordinate with the fiftieth anniversary of Johnson's death.

  Street food markets have become wildly popular in Los Angeles—and behind the scenes, Latinx children have been instrumental in making these small informal businesses grow. In Kids at Work, Emir Estrada shines a light on the surprising labor of these young workers, providing the first ethnography on the participation of Latinx children in street vending.  
  Drawing on dozens of interviews with children and their undocumented parents, as well as three years spent on the streets shadowing families at work, Estrada brings attention to the unique set of hardships Latinx youth experience in this occupation. She also highlights how these hardships can serve to cement family bonds, develop empathy towards parents, encourage hard work, and support children—and their parents—in their efforts to make a living together in the United States. Kids at Work provides a compassionate, up-close portrait of Latinx children, detailing the complexities and nuances of family relations when children help generate income for the household as they peddle the streets of LA alongside their immigrant parents.

  Andean Economies - Shaping...

  Andean Economies explores the economic paths of three key countries—Bolivia, Chile, and Peru—that make up the backbone of the Andean region. This 3-in-1 volume traces how natural resources, policy choices, and historical legacies have shaped the rise and fall of economic fortunes across these nations. From copper and lithium to agriculture and tourism, the Andes are not just mountains—they’re economic lifelines that have brought both prosperity and hardship to those who call this region home. 
  In From Prosperity to Peril, the book examines how sudden wealth from resource booms often led to financial crises and social unrest, especially in countries like Bolivia, where inequality and political tensions persist. Chile’s economic journey highlights one of the most stable and market-driven economies in South America, marked by both praise for reform and criticism for inequality. Finally, Peru’s economic evolution tells a story of resilience—how a country historically plagued by instability and poverty transformed into one of the region’s fastest-growing economies in recent decades. 
  This comprehensive overview is ideal for anyone seeking to understand the forces behind economic change in South America’s Andean corridor—where every boom comes with risk, and every crisis opens the door for transformation.
