This collection of critical and creative work reconceptualizes what home and being at home means for women writers worldwide. Rather than focusing on how concepts of exile, nomadism, and displacement structure women's cultural and literary texts-as many recent critics have done-these essays and poems, many of which are published here for the first time, re-evaluate the meanings of home, community and relocation.

A good reader for certain students.......2006-04-02
This book is ambitious. It is not your basic primary source reader as it seeks to bring (as is suggested in the title) the "west" into a global context by emphasizing sources which discuss notions of cultural, ethnic, religious, and national identity.
I have used it for several western civilization survey classes and have found it at once useful and intimidating. The chapter introductions are clear, informative and illuminating. The writing is consise and engaging. That said, I would recommend this text to professors teaching more advanced history students, and those engaged in "global studies" or international relations. Because the text seeks to bring the West into a larger, more global context, many students find the work to be dense and confusing, especially those with little background in western history.
The document selection is excellent, especially from antiquity to the fall of Rome. The translations of the works are good and reliable, and in general the length of the documents are sufficient. The editors let the documents speak without sacrificing too much of the text. The editors, however, ignore good sources after the 5th c. CE. From that point on the documents deal almost specifically with western religions and perceptions of those of different faiths. Fine if you're teaching a religion class, but the book lacks some of the basic sources from the Middle Ages period that young undergraduates need.
I do recommend this book, but not for all students or classes.
Book Description

Customer Reviews:
Essays of the last fifteen years .......2005-06-26
This volume collects essays of the last fifteen years of his life. The work has sections on 'Convictions and Beliefs' 'Science and Life' ' Public Affairs' ' Personalities' and 'His own people: The Jews"
The work features expositions of some of Einstein's major scientific work.
Among the personalities written about are Gandhi who Einstein greatly admires, Newton, Kepler, Planck, Madame Curie, Langevin, and lesser known figures Paul Ehrenfest,Carl von Ossietsky.
Einstein writes much about the terrible changes in Germany he saw in his own lifetime, the rise of Nazism and Anti- Semitism.
He writes about the creation of a national homeland for the Jews, his own Zionism, and his own connection with the Jewish people.
He writes too about his conception of world- peace, about the threat to the world brought about something he is no small part a contributor to, the harnessing of the atom.
In writing about himself in the opening section of the work he says, "I do the thing which my own nature drives me to do. It is embarassing to earn so much love and respect for it."
He celebrates the life of thought , of the solitary individual .
Einstein is the greatest modern example of Keynes dictum of how it is 'ideas' that change the world. He is the example of how one man alone , thinking, transformed our understanding of nature, and our power to change it.
In these essays the main interests of Einstein's life are touched upon. He writes with clarity and modesty.
An invaluable opportunity to be in touch with ' the Mind that defined an Age'.
Perfect for Travel, Quick Reads.......2000-03-24
Out of my Later Years is a collection of Einstein's speeches and articles covering not just physics but his thoughts on the social condition of man, of Jews, and of war as well as several speeches about the likes of Max Planck, Mahatma Gandhi, and Marie Curie.
As letters and speeches, these are written as the ordinary man that Einstein once was - very easy to read and understand. Even some of the physics lectures are understandable. Each is relatively short making this perfect for when you want to read something of substance but don't have much time.
The sections on Public Affairs are especially haunting as Einstein presents his arguments for the "global village" and advocated someting akin to the current U.N. - things that began to come into their own after his passing. In particular, there is an interchange between him and a group of Communist scientists that underlines the Cold War tension in its height and is a chilling read now in the Post Soviet Union age.
A different man.......2000-01-05
I found Einstein's desire to start a rock band at such an early age very surprising. A man before his time for sure. Singing about relativity while distancing himself from the groupies must have been difficult. The book reads like a good guitar riff, jolting one's mind from time to time. Excellent!

Book Description
Managing for Quality and Survival is a book, written by Eugene C. Bonacci, that provides insight into how to manage for quality while pursuing the objective of becoming the low-cost producer in one's field, thereby providing the best possible customer-centered quality product or service at the lowest possible cost.
This is not "just another" book on quality control with a gesture toward productivity and survival. There are dozens of good books on that subject, and few people are now motivated to buy another one with similar implications. Bonacci, however, has cast his appropach in the Mission, "To provide the best possible customer-centered quality product or service at the lowest possible cost," to prove that the customer is always right, even when the customer may be out-of-line or simply wrong. Using this as a general springboard - and a focus - Bonacci shows how a fully integrated program can be developed - not just with quality as a target - to assure this customer satisfaction.
Customer Reviews:

Book Description
During the Seven Years War the British economy had expanded rapidly to meet the demands of equipping the army and navy as well as subsidizing Britain's European allies. After the war, the economy was left without sufficient markets to absorb the extra production. This situation led to a persistent drive to open new markets, especially in the American colonies. When the British decided to maintain an army in America after 1764, these troops became a major market for the colonists who provided them with beef, pork, flour, and rum. Colonists also sold manufactured goods to French settlers in Illinois and fur traders west of the Mississippi. Organization of this trade to provide the most cost-effective means of supplying goods to the frontier was achieved through refinements in financial, transportation, and production techniques. By the end of 1768, competition between American merchants increased, and prices dropped dramatically. Meanwhile, British troops began moving back toward the East Coast, further depriving the colonial merchants of a major market. This period marked a severe setback for colonial merchants on the frontier and added fuel to the fires of discontent with British policies.

Great Review for Senior Managers; Good Tool for Training.......2001-12-09
Kelly synthesizes all of the things we've learned on the job and in training seminars, but forget from time to time. Good refresher for experienced managers. Also a great training tool for junior managers and catalyst for organizational discussion about key issues, employee motivation and directing the organization towards common, defined goals.

Book Description
These two volumes represent the first major scholarly effort to unravel the psychological and symbolic processing of political advertising. Utilizing survey, experimental, qualitative, and semiotic methodologies to study this phenomenon, the contributors to Television and Political Advertising trace how political ads help to interpret the psychological reality of the presidential campaign in the minds of millions of voters. A product of the National Political Advertising Research Project, this interdisciplinary effort is valuable to researchers in advertising, communication, and consumer psychology since it helps define future work on the relationship between television, politics, and the mind of the voter.
