Hiding in Plain Sight (9780999351932)

"By the time I started school at four years old, all my classmates knew we had Mob connections." That's how Robert and Carol Teitelbaum's Hiding in Plain Sight begins. Reader-be-warned, this one isn't for the faint of heart: strap yourselves in for a bumpy ride-a-long with the Chicago Mob filled with tension, drama, and true crime grit. Without giving too much of the story away for readers, I will say that Robert Teitelbaum's parents, Esther and Abraham Teitelbaum, were both Mob attorneys for the likes of the legendary Al Capone, Ben Seigel, and other members of the Chicago Outfit. Teitelbaum shares intimate details about his parents' respective upbringings and the experiences that eventually led them to the incendiary lives they lived. The book offers insight into the paths forged by the pair, which ultimately converged within a fiery world of brutal infighting, corruption, murder, and 'winner-take-all' battles for power. Not many people rea...

Non parlare con la bocca piena (9788817101332)

Bello sapere che si può tornare. Che a ogni passo falso, nella vita, i genitori sono pronti a riabbracciarti con un calore che gli anni non hanno mai attutito né tanto meno spento. Per Chiara, questo calore profuma di caffè e canta sulle note della Vedova allegra. Perché i suoi genitori sono così, loro che l'hanno tirata su in amorosa allegria, le hanno costruito attorno un mondo da fiaba e hanno trattato la vita come una partita a tombola a Natale: leggera. Chiara ha appena lasciato Federico, il loro nido e i gatti. Il suo essere una donna fallica le ha impedito di portare avanti pure questa storia. E sì che stavolta si era impegnata. Ora il dolore le morde il cuore. Anche le donne come lei soffrono. Ma niente, non ce la fa, ed eccola a suonare il citofono a papà, a trascinarsi su per le scale i due trolley, ad addolcire la vita masticando Galatine per consolarsi un po'. Come le hanno insegnato fin da piccola. Meno male che, a casa dei suoi, Chiara ritrova tutto com'era,...

Privilege : A Reader (9780367098209)

Privilege is about more than being white, wealthy, and male, as Michael Kimmel, Abby Ferber, and a range of contributors make clear in this timely anthology. In an era when 'diversity' is too often shorthand for 'of color' and/or 'female' the personal and analytical essays in this collection explore the multifaceted nature of social location and consider how gender, class, race, sexual orientation, (dis)ability, and religion interact to create nuanced layers of privilege and oppression. The individual essays (taken together) guide students to a deep understanding of the dynamics of diversity and stratification, advantage, and power.The fourth edition features thirteen new essays that help students understand the intersectional nature of privilege and oppression and has new introductory essays to contextualize the readings.

Walkable City : How Downtown Can Save America, One Step at a Time (9780865477728)

Jeff Speck has dedicated his career to determining what makes cities thrive, and he has boiled it down to one key factor: walkability. The very idea of a modern metropolis evokes visions of bustling sidewalks, vital mass transit, and a vibrant, pedestrian-friendly urban core. But in the typical American city, the car is still king and downtown is a place that's easy to drive to but often not worth arriving at. Making walkability happen is relatively easy and cheap; seeing exactly what needs to be done is the trick. In this essential book, Speck reveals the invisible workings of the city, how simple decisions have cascading effects, and how we can all make the right choices for our communities. "Insightful and passionately argued" (Maria Popova, Brain Pickings), bursting with sharp observations and real-world examples, giving key insight into what urban planners actually do and how places can and do change, Walkable City lays out a practical, necessary, and eminently achie...

Redeeming Childbirth : Experiencing His Presence in Pregnancy, Labor, Childbirth, and Beyond (9780985246310)

The Campaigns of John Baxter Langley : A Keen and Courageous Reformer (9781905816477)

Once notorious but now largely forgotten, the political idealist and radical John Baxter Langley was typical of the well-educated and ethical Victorians who struggled to create a fairer, more equal society. Through a long and wide-ranging career of political agitation he was a journalist, editor and owner of several newspapers, was prominent in the call for franchise reform, and opposed religious legislation that prevented Sunday entertainment and education for working men and women. Langley was also integral to the founding of a trade union, campaigned for an end to public executions and built affordable housing in Battersea. Internationally, he condemned the Second Opium War, exposed British brutality in India and worked covertly for Lincoln's administration. He was a fellow-traveller for many other key radicals of the day, while his founding of the 'Church of the Future' garnered the support of Charles Darwin, James Martineau and John Stuart Mill. Through a chronologic...

Isaac Watts : His Life and Thought (9781781912652)

Isaac Watts(1674-1748) is one of the best-known hymn-Writers in history. He wrote over 700 hymns including the well-known "When I survey the Wondrous Cross", "O God, our help in ages past" and "Jesus shall reign where'er the sun" - hymns which are still sung to this day.

This fascinating study considers his life, writings and continuing influence on Christians today, in a way that will illuminate and inspire. Product details Format Pa...
