Vintage 1960, Discoverers Of The New World -American Heritage Junior Library

A History of Man's Search to Know His World and Himself

Perhaps the greatest book by 1 of our greatest historians, Discoverers is a volume of sweeping range & majestic interpretation. To call it a history of science is an understatement; this is the story of how humankind has come to know the world, however incompletely, ("the eternal mystery of the world," Einstein once said, "is its comprehensibility"). Boorstin first describes the liberating concept of time- “the first grand discovery" & continues through the age of exploration & the advent of the natural & social sciences. The approach is idiosyncratic, with Boorstin lingering over particular figures & accomplishments rather than rushing on to the next set of names & dates. It's also primarily Western, although Boorstin does ask & answer several interesting questions: Why didn't the Chinese "discover" Europe & America? Why didn't the Arabs circumnavigate the planet?

We bundle & ship quickly. Please see photos for condition.

A FLOWER LOVER'S GUIDE TO TOKYO - BOOK
40 WALKS FOR ALL SEASONS
BY SUMIKO ENBUTSU

...Japanese sensitivity to seasons and nature is inextricably linked to their love for flowers. This appreciation is well preserved in works of art and objects of daily life, from subject of mural paintings to motif on combs.

Although the primary goal of this guidebook is to help the reader get to the flower sites, it is designed also to be an introduction to the colorful tapestry of Japanese culture and history that is interwoven with myths, literature, arts, anecdotes and living flowers. While seeing irises in full
bloom is rewarding by itself, the experience will be enriched by knowing why a zigzag bridge is almost always there and by recognizing iris designs in arts and crafts. Vigorous flowering of old wisteria trees remind us of the wisteria boys myth, and camellia leaves reflecting the afternoon sun are a
convincing explanation of the flower's Japanese name meaning "glossy leaves."

Sigmund Freud The Interpretation of Dreams By: Dr.Richard Stevens

Between 1974 and 1990 more than thirty countries in southern Europe, Latin America, East Asia, and Eastern Europe shifted from authoritarian to democratic systems of government. This global democratic revolution is probably the most important political trend in the late twentieth century. In The Third Wave, Samuel P. Huntington analyzes the causes and nature of these democratic transitions, evaluates the prospects for stability of the new democracies, and explores the possibility of more countries becoming democratic. The recent transitions, he argues, are the third major wave of democratization in the modem world. Each of the two previous waves was followed by a reverse wave in which some countries shifted back to authoritarian government. Using concrete examples, empirical evidence, and insightful analysis, Huntington provides neither a theory nor a history of the third wave, but an explanation of why and how it occurred.

Factors responsible for the democratic trend include the legi

The Truth About European Colonialism in the New World.  New Condition Synopsis "A renowned historian debunks current distortion and myths about European colonialism in the New World and restores much needed balance to our understanding of the past.
Was America really “stolen” from the Indians? Was Columbus a racist? Were Indians really peace-loving, communistic environmentalists? Did Europeans commit “genocide” in the New World?
It seems that almost everyone—from CNN to the New York Times to angry students pulling down statues of our founders—believes that America’s history is a shameful tale of racism, exploitation, and cruelty.
In Not Stolen, renowned historian Jeff Fynn-Paul systematically dismantles this relentlessly negative view of U.S. history, arguing that it is based on shoddy methods, misinformation, and outright lies about the past.
America was not “stolen” from the Indians but fairly purchased piece by piece in a thriving land market. Nor did European settlers cheat, st

Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong. Book examines American history textbooks across the nation and compares it to to how history is really discussed in academia.

The "scratches" you see is the plastic binding of the paperback being stretched back somehow, but it doesn't affect how you open the book. I had it in my bookcase and really don't have an explanation.

Recognizing that a “one treatment fits all approach” has failed millions, it introduces a new subtyping system that will help both newly diagnosed and veteran interstitial cystitis and bladder pain patients determine the actual cause of their symptoms.This book will give patients a road map to diagnosis and treatment based upon their own unique history and presentation of symptoms.In preparation for an international move, we are selling many of our belongings.
