Foundations and American Political Science The Transformation of a Discipline, 1945-1970【電子書籍】[ Emily Hauptmann ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Foundations in the United States have long exerted considerable power over education and scholarly production. Although today’s titans of philanthropy proclaim more loudly their desire to transform schools and universities than did some of their predecessors, philanthropic programs designed to reshape educational institutions are at least a century old. In <em>Foundations and American Political Science</em>, Emily Hauptmann focuses on the postwar Carnegie, Ford, and Rockefeller programs that reshaped political science. She shows how significant changes in the methods and research interests of postwar political scientists began as responses to the priorities set by their philanthropic patrons.</p> <p>Informed by years of research in foundation and university archives, <em>Foundations and American Political Science</em> follows the course of several streams of private philanthropic money as they wended their way through public universities and political science departments in the postwar period. The programs launched by the Carnegie, Ford, and Rockefeller philanthropies as well as their reception at the universities of California and Michigan steered political scientists towards particular problems as well as particular ways of studying them. The rise of statistical analyses of survey data, the decline of public administration, and persistent conflicts over the discipline’s purpose and the best methods for understanding politics, Hauptmann argues, all had their roots in the ways that postwar universities responded to foundations’ programs. Additionally, the new emphasis universities placed on sponsored research sparked sharp disputes among political scientists over what should count as legitimate knowledge about politics and what the ultimate purpose of the discipline should be.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Confront and Conceal Obama's Secret Wars and Surprising Use of American Power【電子書籍】[ David E. Sanger ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>FROM INSIDE OBAMA’S SITUATION ROOM . . . THE CRITICAL MOMENTS IN THE COVERT WAR AGAINST IRAN, THE STRUGGLES TO DEAL WITH A RECALCITRANT PAKISTAN AND ITS FAST-GROWING NUCLEAR ARSENAL, THE TENSIONS WITH THE AMERICAN MILITARY OVER AFGHANISTAN AND WITH ALLIES SWEPT UP IN THE CHAOS OF THE ARAB SPRING</strong></p> <p>Three and a half years ago, David Sanger’s book <em>The Inheritance: The World Obama Confronts and the Challenges to American Power</em> described how a new American president came to office with the world on fire. Now, just as the 2012 presidential election battle begins, Sanger follows up with an eye-opening, news-packed account of how Obama has dealt with those challenges, relying on innovative weapons and reconfigured tools of American power to try to manage a series of new threats. Sanger describes how Obama’s early idealism about fighting “a war of necessity” in Afghanistan quickly turned to fatigue and frustration, how the early hopes that the Arab Spring would bring about a democratic awakening slipped away, and how an effort to re-establish American power in the Pacific set the stage for a new era of tensions with the world’s great rising power, China.</p> <p>As the world seeks to understand the contours of the Obama Doctrine, <em>Confront and Conceal</em> is a fascinating, unflinching account of these complex years, in which the president and his administration have found themselves struggling to stay ahead in a world where power is diffuse and America’s ability to exert control grows ever more elusive.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Sapphic Slashers Sex, Violence, and American Modernity【電子書籍】[ Lisa Duggan ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>On a winter day in 1892, in the broad daylight of downtown Memphis, Tennessee, a middle class woman named Alice Mitchell slashed the throat of her lover, Freda Ward, killing her instantly. Local, national, and international newspapers, medical and scientific publications, and popular fiction writers all clamored to cover the ensuing “girl lovers” murder trial. Lisa Duggan locates in this sensationalized event the emergence of the lesbian in U.S. mass culture and shows how newly “modern” notions of normality and morality that arose from such cases still haunt and distort lesbian and gay politics to the present day.<br /> Situating this story alongside simultaneously circulating lynching narratives (and its resistant versions, such as those of Memphis antilynching activist Ida B. Wells) Duggan reveals how stories of sex and violence were crucial to the development of American modernity. While careful to point out the differences between the public reigns of terror that led to many lynchings and the rarer instances of the murder of one woman by another privately motivated woman, Duggan asserts that dominant versions of both sets of stories contributed to the marginalization of African Americans and women while solidifying a distinctly white, male, heterosexual form of American citizenship. Having explored the role of turn-of-the-century print mediaーand in particular their tendency toward sensationalismーDuggan moves next to a review of sexology literature and to novels, most notably Radclyffe Hall’s <em>The Well of Loneliness</em>. <em>Sapphic Slashers</em> concludes with two appendices, one of which presents a detailed summary of Ward’s murder, the trial, and Mitchell’s eventual institutionalization. The other presents transcriptions of letters exchanged between the two women prior to the crime.<br /> Combining cultural history, feminist and queer theory, narrative analysis, and compelling storytelling, <em>Sapphic Slashers</em> provides the first history of the emergence of the lesbian in twentieth-century mass culture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Just and Generous Nation Abraham Lincoln and the Fight for American Opportunity【電子書籍】[ Harold Holzer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In <em>A Just and Generous Nation</em>, the eminent historian Harold Holzer and the noted economist Norton Garfinkle present a groundbreaking new account of the beliefs that inspired our sixteenth president to go to war when the Southern states seceded from the Union. Rather than a commitment to eradicating slavery or a defense of the Union, they argue, Lincoln's guiding principle was the defense of equal economic opportunity.</p> <p>Lincoln firmly believed that the government's primary role was to ensure that all Americans had the opportunity to better their station in life. As president, he worked tirelessly to enshrine this ideal within the federal government. He funded railroads and canals, supported education, and, most importantly, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which opened the door for former slaves to join white Americans in striving for self-improvement. In our own age of unprecedented inequality, <em>A Just and Generous Nation</em> reestablishes Lincoln's legacy as the protector not just of personal freedom but of the American dream itself.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Alphabetical Vocabularies of the Clallum and Lummi Preserving Native American Languages: A Linguistic Insight into Clallum and Lummi【電子書籍】[ George Gibbs ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Alphabetical Vocabularies of the Clallum and Lummi," George Gibbs presents a meticulously compiled lexicon of the Clallam and Lummi languages, contributing significantly to the underrepresented study of Indigenous languages in the Pacific Northwest. Gibbs employs a systematic, alphabetized format that not only enhances accessibility but also facilitates the analysis of linguistic structures. His scholarly approach is accentuated by a careful attention to dialectal variations, contextual usage, and the interplay of these languages with local cultural identity, making this work an invaluable resource for linguists and historians alike. George Gibbs, a notable 19th-century ethnographer and linguist, was deeply invested in the culture and languages of Native American tribes. His background in both academia and active engagement with Indigenous communities shaped his dedication to documenting their languages at a time when such efforts were essential for preservation. The urgency of his work is underscored by the rapid changes facing Indigenous cultures during his lifetime, reflecting both a passion for linguistic diversity and a commitment to cultural heritage. This book is highly recommended for students of linguistics, anthropology, and Indigenous studies, as well as for those with a general interest in language preservation. Gibbs' work not only enriches our understanding of Clallam and Lummi but stands as a vital testament to the cultural vitality of these communities, urging readers to appreciate the nuanced beauty of their languages.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

An Essay on Slavery and Abolitionism With reference to the duty of American females【電子書籍】[ Catharine Esther Beecher ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "An Essay on Slavery and Abolitionism," Catharine Esther Beecher presents a compelling argument against slavery while addressing the moral, social, and educational implications of the institution in 19th-century America. Written with a blend of passion and pragmatism, Beecher employs a didactic literary style that invites readers to reflect critically on the ethics of slavery. She contextualizes her arguments within the broader abolitionist movement, examining the roles of education and women's involvement in social reform, thereby weaving a narrative that is both persuasive and poignant. Catharine Esther Beecher, a prominent advocate for women's education and a key figure in the American domestic sphere, draws from her personal convictions and societal observations to craft this powerful essay. Raised in a family of educators and reformers, Beecher was acutely aware of the societal transformations unfolding around her. Her lifelong commitment to philanthropy and women's rights undoubtedly shaped her perspective on abolitionism, compelling her to challenge prevailing notions about race and gender in her writings. This essential work is highly recommended for readers interested in the intersections of gender, education, and social reform during the antebellum period. Beecher's nuanced exploration of these themes not only broadens our understanding of abolitionism but also serves as a timeless reminder of the ongoing struggle for justice and equality.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Our Man In Tokyo An American Ambassador and the Countdown to Pearl Harbor【電子書籍】[ Steve Kemper ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>Winner of the American Academy of Diplomacy’s Dillon Book Award</strong></p> <p><strong>"Gripping history, offering both drama and suspense." ー<em>Wall Street Journal</em></strong></p> <p><strong>A riveting, behind-the-scenes account of the personalities and contending forces in Tokyo during the volatile decade that led to World War II, as seen through the eyes of the American ambassador who attempted to stop the slide to war.</strong></p> <p>In 1932, Japan was in crisis. Naval officers had assassinated the prime minister and conspiracies flourished. The military had a stranglehold on the government. War with Russia loomed, and propaganda campaigns swept the country, urging schoolchildren to give money to procure planes and tanks.</p> <p>Into this maelstrom stepped Joseph C. Grew, America’s most experienced and talented diplomat. When Grew was appointed ambassador to Japan, not only was the country in turmoil, its relationship with America was rapidly deteriorating. For the next decade, Grew attempted to warn American leaders about the risks of Japan’s raging nationalism and rising militarism, while also trying to stabilize Tokyo’s increasingly erratic and volatile foreign policy. From domestic terrorism by Japanese extremists to the global rise of Hitler and the fateful attack on Pearl Harbor, the events that unfolded during Grew’s tenure proved to be pivotal for Japan, and for the world. His dispatches from the darkening heart of the Japanese empire would prove prescientーfor his time, and for our own.</p> <p>Drawing on Grew’s diary of his time in Tokyo as well as U.S. embassy correspondence, diplomatic dispatches, and firsthand Japanese accounts, <em>Our Man in Tokyo</em> brings to life a man who risked everything to avert another world war, the country where he staked it allーand the abyss that swallowed it.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Jewish Aviators in World War II Personal Narratives of American Men and Women【電子書籍】[ Bruce H. Wolk ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>More than 150,000 American Jews served in the air war during World War II. Despite acts of heroism and commendations, they were subject to bigotry and scorn by their fellow servicemen. Jews were sometimes characterized as disloyal and cowardly, malingering in the slanderous (and non-existent) "Jewish Quartermaster Corps" or sitting out the war in easy assignments. Based on interviews with more than 100 Jewish air veterans, this oral history features the recollections of pilots, crew members and support personnel in all theaters of combat and all branches of the service, including Jewish women of the Women Airforce Service Pilots. The subjects recall their combat experiences, lives as POWs, and anti-Semitism in the ranks, as well as human interest anecdotes such as encounters with the Tuskegee Airmen.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The American Indians Enriched edition. Their History, Condition and Prospects, from Original Notes and Manuscripts【電子書籍】[ Henry Rowe Schoolcraft ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The American Indians," Henry Rowe Schoolcraft presents a groundbreaking exploration of Native American cultures and societies during the early 19th century. Employing a rich, descriptive literary style, Schoolcraft weaves together ethnographic accounts, historical narratives, and firsthand observations. His work not only captures the diverse languages, customs, and beliefs of various tribes but also seeks to contextualize their existence within the broader narrative of American expansion. Written in a time when the plight of Indigenous peoples was often overlooked, this text serves both as a cultural preservation effort and a critique of prevailing colonial attitudes. Henry Rowe Schoolcraft, an influential geographer and ethnologist, was deeply influenced by his early experiences living among Native Americans, which fostered a profound respect for their heritage. His role as an Indian agent and extensive travels through Indigenous territories enriched his understanding of their complex societies. Schoolcraft's commitment to documenting the stories and struggles of Native communities stemmed from a desire to counteract the misinformation and stereotypes that prevailed in his time. This seminal work is essential reading for anyone seeking to comprehend the rich tapestry of Native American life and the historical forces shaping it. Schoolcraft's intimate portrayals and thoughtful analysis render "The American Indians" not just an academic resource but a poignant reminder of the resilience and diversity of Indigenous cultures. It is a vital contribution to American literature and a necessary entry point for modern readers interested in the nuanced past of Native peoples. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A succinct Introduction situates the work's timeless appeal and themes. - The Synopsis outlines the central plot, highlighting key developments without spoiling critical twists. - A detailed Historical Context immerses you in the era's events and influences that shaped the writing. - An Author Biography reveals milestones in the author's life, illuminating the personal insights behind the text. - A thorough Analysis dissects symbols, motifs, and character arcs to unearth underlying meanings. - Reflection questions prompt you to engage personally with the work's messages, connecting them to modern life. - Handーpicked Memorable Quotes shine a spotlight on moments of literary brilliance. - Interactive footnotes clarify unusual references, historical allusions, and archaic phrases for an effortless, more informed read.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Common Sense & The Rights of Man Words of a Visionary That Sparked the Revolution and Remained the Core of American Democratic Principles【電子書籍】[ Thomas Paine ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Thomas Paine's groundbreaking works, 'Common Sense' and 'The Rights of Man,' are seminal texts that have played a significant role in shaping political thought and discourse. Written in a clear, persuasive style, 'Common Sense' articulates Paine's arguments for American independence from British rule, appealing to reason and common sense. This influential pamphlet served as a catalyst for the American Revolution and remains a cornerstone of American political literature. In 'The Rights of Man,' Paine expands on his revolutionary ideas by championing the rights of individuals against oppressive governments, making a compelling case for democratic principles and social justice. Born in England, Thomas Paine was a political activist and philosopher who became a key figure in the Age of Enlightenment. His experiences as a revolutionary thinker, combined with his fervent belief in human rights and equality, inspired him to write these seminal works that continue to resonate with readers today. Paine's commitment to challenging authority and advocating for democratic values is evident in the thought-provoking rhetoric found in 'Common Sense' and 'The Rights of Man.' I highly recommend 'Common Sense' and 'The Rights of Man' to readers interested in political philosophy, history, and the foundations of modern democracy. Paine's eloquent prose and bold ideas make these texts essential reading for anyone seeking to understand the principles of liberty, equality, and democratic governance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Empire Trap The Rise and Fall of U.S. Intervention to Protect American Property Overseas, 1893-2013【電子書籍】[ Noel Maurer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>How the United States became an imperial power by bowing to pressure to defend its citizens' overseas investments</strong></p> <p>Throughout the twentieth century, the U.S. government willingly deployed power, hard and soft, to protect American investments all around the globe. Why did the United States get into the business of defending its citizens' property rights abroad? <em>The Empire Trap</em> looks at how modern U.S. involvement in the empire business began, how American foreign policy became increasingly tied to the sway of private financial interests, and how postwar administrations finally extricated the United States from economic interventionism, even though the government had the will and power to continue.</p> <p>Noel Maurer examines the ways that American investors initially influenced their government to intercede to protect investments in locations such as Central America and the Caribbean. Costs were smallーat least at the outsetーbut with each incremental step, American policy became increasingly entangled with the goals of those they were backing, making disengagement more difficult. Maurer discusses how, all the way through the 1970s, the United States not only failed to resist pressure to defend American investments, but also remained unsuccessful at altering internal institutions of other countries in order to make property rights secure in the absence of active American involvement. Foreign nations expropriated American investments, but in almost every case the U.S. government's employment of economic sanctions or covert action obtained market value or more in compensationーdespite the growing strategic risks. The advent of institutions focusing on international arbitration finally gave the executive branch a credible political excuse not to act. Maurer cautions that these institutions are now under strain and that a collapse might open the empire trap once more.</p> <p>With shrewd and timely analysis, this book considers American patterns of foreign intervention and the nation's changing role as an imperial power.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Hospital Life, Death, and Dollars in a Small American Town【電子書籍】[ Brian Alexander ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong><em>USA Today</em>'s 5 BOOKS NOT TO MISS</strong></p> <p>**"Alexander nimbly and grippingly translates the byzantine world of American health care into a real-life narrative with people you come to care about." ー<em>New York Times</em></p> <p>"Takes readers into the world of the American medical industry in a way no book has done before."** ー<em><strong>Fortune</strong></em></p> <p>**"With his signature gut-punching prose, Alexander breaks our hearts as he opens our eyes to America’s deep-rooted sickness and despair by immersing us in the lives of a small town hospital and the people it serves." ー**<strong>Beth Macy, bestselling author of <em>Dopesick</em></strong></p> <p>By following the struggle for survival of one small-town hospital, and the patients who walk, or are carried, through its doors, <em>The Hospital</em> takes readers into the world of the American medical industry in a way no book has done before. Americans are dying sooner, and living in poorer health. Alexander argues that no plan will solve America’s health crisis until the deeper causes of that crisis are addressed.</p> <p>Bryan, Ohio's hospital, is losing money, making it vulnerable to big health systems seeking domination and Phil Ennen, CEO, has been fighting to preserve its independence. Meanwhile, Bryan, a town of 8,500 people in Ohio’s northwest corner, is still trying to recover from the Great Recession. As local leaders struggle to address the town’s problems, and the hospital fights for its life amid a rapidly consolidating medical and hospital industry, a 39-year-old diabetic literally fights for his limbs, and a 55-year-old contractor lies dying in the emergency room. With these and other stories, Alexander strips away the wonkiness of policy to reveal Americans’ struggle for health against a powerful system that’s stacked against them, but yet so fragile it blows apart when the pandemic hits. Culminating with COVID-19, this book offers a blueprint for how we created the crisis we're in.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Old Indian Legends Enriched edition. Timeless Native American Wisdom and Folklore Resonating Through Generations【電子書籍】[ Zitkala-Sa ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Old Indian Legends," Zitkala-Sa masterfully weaves a collection of Indigenous stories that resonate with profound cultural significance and a rich oral tradition. The book presents a series of narratives reflecting the spiritual and moral lessons central to Native American life, infused with her lyrical prose that captures the essence of her heritage. Zitkala-Sa employs a blend of autobiographical elements and folklore, embedding her work within the broader context of early 20th-century American literature, where Indigenous voices were often marginalized. This literary piece challenges those narratives by foregrounding voices from the margins and illuminating the complexities of tribal identities. Zitkala-Sa, a Sioux writer, composer, and activist, draws upon her rich personal history and cultural background to articulate the struggles and triumphs of Indigenous peoples. Her experiences of displacement and education at a Quaker missionary school deeply informed her writing, as she confronted the tensions between assimilation and cultural preservation. With an intimate understanding of both her own culture and the broader American landscape, she emerged as a significant voice advocating for Native rights and representation. I highly recommend "Old Indian Legends" to readers seeking a deeper appreciation of Native American narratives and their intricate worldview. Zitkala-Sa's evocative storytelling not only preserves cultural heritage but also invites readers to engage critically with the histories and identities of Indigenous peoples. This book is a potent reminder of the power of storytelling in reclaiming agency and cultural identity. In this enriched edition, we have carefully created added value for your reading experience: - A comprehensive Introduction outlines these selected works' unifying features, themes, or stylistic evolutions. - A Historical Context section situates the works in their broader eraーsocial currents, cultural trends, and key events that underpin their creation. - A concise Synopsis (Selection) offers an accessible overview of the included texts, helping readers navigate plotlines and main ideas without revealing critical twists. - A unified Analysis examines recurring motifs and stylistic hallmarks across the collection, tying the stories together while spotlighting the different work's strengths. - Reflection questions inspire deeper contemplation of the author's overarching message, inviting readers to draw connections among different texts and relate them to modern contexts. - Lastly, our handーpicked Memorable Quotes distill pivotal lines and turning points, serving as touchstones for the collection's central themes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

American and British English Divided by a Common Language?【電子書籍】[ Paul Baker ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Is British English becoming more like American English? If so, why, and in what ways? This book compares examples of American and British language data from the 1930s, 1960s, 1990s and 2000s, to track the most important ways that both varieties are changing over time, and compares the extent to which they are following similar paths using a mixture of computer and human analysis. The analysis is carried out across several levels, including spelling differences (such as colour vs color), vocabulary (truck vs lorry), and a range of morphological, grammatical, semantic and pragmatic features. Baker explores the changing aspects of American and British society which help to explain the findings.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Medicinal and Other Uses of North American Plants A Historical Survey with Special Reference to the Eastern Indian Tribes【電子書籍】[ Charlotte Erichsen-Brown ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Spanning the last 500 years, this exceptionally detailed and well-researched guide focuses primarily on the ways North American Indians have used plants, trees, and shrubs for medicine, food, clothing, shelter, and other necessities. The plants considered are native to eastern Canada and the northeastern United States, although some are also found as far south as Florida and Texas and as far west as the Pacific coast.<br /> In addition to extensive chronological historical citations dealing with documented usages of plants as far back as the fourteenth century, this book also provides data to enable even amateur botanists to identify plants in the field. Thus, accounts of herbalists, explorers, botanists, doctors, and scientists are accompanied by useful information about the plant's range, common and scientific names, nontechnical physical description and more. To make the book especially easy to use, plants are grouped according to habitat: wet open places, woods and thickets, and dry open places. Moreover, a detailed line drawing of the plant's leaves, buds, twigs, seeds, and other characteristic features accompanies the textual descriptions.<br /> Scholarly, yet readable, exceptionally thorough but never dull, this classic reference belongs in the library of botanists, naturalists, herbalists, ethnologists, archaeologists ー anyone interested in the long and fascinating story of how plants have served humanity.<br /> "Charlotte Erichsen-Brown is a noted and inspired student of the ethnobotany of eastern North America. She has completed a study of great imagination and energy. Whether on a library's reference shelf or in a backpack along the trail, her work will inform and educate, and often amaze." ー J. L. Riley, Botany Department, Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, Canada.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Nature at War American Environments and World War II【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This anthology is the first sustained examination of American involvement in World War II through an environmental lens. World War II was a total and global war that involved the extraction, processing, and use of vast quantities of natural resources. The wartime military-industrial complex, the 'Arsenal of Democracy,' experienced tremendous economic growth and technological development, employing resources at a higher intensity than ever before. The war years witnessed transformations in American agriculture; the proliferation of militarized landscapes; the popularization of chemical and pharmaceutical products; a rapid increase in energy consumption and the development of nuclear energy; a remaking of the nation's transportation networks; a shift in population toward the Sunbelt and the West Coast; a vast expansion in the federal government, in conjunction with industrial firms; and the emergence of environmentalism. World War II represented a quantitative and qualitative leap in resource use, with lasting implications for American government, science, society, health, and ecology.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Grand Chessboard American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives【電子書籍】[ Zbigniew Brzezinski ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>From one of America’s leading geopolitical thinkers, the classic treatise on America's strategic mission in the modern world</strong></p> <p><strong>“<em>The Grand Chessboard</em> makes permanent contributions to the national debate over American foreign policy and power.”ー<em>Los Angeles Times</em></strong></p> <p>In this seminal work, celebrated political scientist Zbigniew Brzezinski delivers a provocative, revolutionary geostrategy for American preeminence in the twenty-first century. The United States’ crucial task, he argues, is to become the sole political arbiter in Eurasia and prevent the emergence of any rival power threatening our material and diplomatic interests. The Eurasian landmass, home to the greatest part of the globe's population, natural resources, and economic activity, is the “grand chessboard” on which Brzezinski argues that America's supremacy will be ratified and challenged. With signature insight and lucidity, Brzezinski spans from the collapse of the Soviet Union to the Russo-Ukrainian War and the rise of China.</p> <p><em>The Grand Chessboard</em> is a landmark work, both in Brzezinski’s oeuvre and in the field of political science. It remains an essential, powerful blueprint for protecting America's most vital interests in Eurasia and beyond.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
