Hotel Adios: Slouching towards the White House【電子書籍】[ Paul Enns Wiebe ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Talia la Musa, daughter of former Christian missionaries to Iran, gathers a small flock of oddballs to join her recently formed Kachina Round Table (KRT) in her recently "inherited" hotel in Small Southwestern City. The KRT consists of herself; an illicit son of a semi-famous Irish novelist; a grandson of the more-famous Author Unknown; a Russian immigrant; and a hillbilly columnist who advises his readers on how to beg off from any number of situations.</p> <p>After writing a spate of maniacal columns, the KRT inaugurates a American political party, the Dead Rights Party (DRiP), which boasts that its main plank is to establish voting rights for deceased ex-citizens and talking parrots over the age of 18. The DRiP then runs two members of the KRT for POTUS and VPOTUS, with surprising results. In the end, Talia, on the lam after a court finds her guilty of finagling the ownership of her hotel, plots a new religion in which the goal of life will be to avoid both hell and heaven and find happiness in a third option.</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。 150円

Slouching Towards Utopia An Economic History of the Twentieth Century【電子書籍】[ J. Bradford DeLong ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>**An instant <em>New York Times</em> and <em>Wall Street Journal</em> bestseller from one of the world’s leading economists, offering a grand narrative of the century that made us richer than ever, but left us unsatisfied</p> <p>“A magisterial history.”ーPaul Krugman</p> <p>Named a Best Book of 2022 by <em>Financial Times</em> * <em>Economist</em> * <em>Fast Company</em>**</p> <p>Before 1870, humanity lived in dire poverty, with a slow crawl of invention offset by a growing population. Then came a great shift: invention sprinted forward, doubling our technological capabilities each generation and utterly transforming the economy again and again. Our ancestors would have presumed we would have used such powers to build utopia. But it was not so. When 1870?2010 ended, the world instead saw global warming; economic depression, uncertainty, and inequality; and broad rejection of the status quo.</p> <p>Economist Brad DeLong’s <em>Slouching Towards Utopia</em> tells the story of how this unprecedented explosion of material wealth occurred, how it transformed the globe, and why it failed to deliver us to utopia. Of remarkable breadth and ambition, it reveals the last century to have been less a march of progress than a slouch in the right direction.</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。 2,291円

Summary of Bradford DeLong's Slouching Towards Utopia【電子書籍】[ ? Everest Media ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The author Thomas Robert Malthus wrote a counterblast to the Essay on the Principle of Population, written by the father of Frankenstein author Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. His objective was to demonstrate that his explicit target, William Godwin, and all of Godwin’s ilk were shortsighted and deluded enemies of the public welfare. #2 The Industrial Revolution of 1770?1870 did not improve the living standards of the majority of people. It did provide comforts for many, but it did not change how humans lived. #3 The Industrial-Commercial Revolution, which took place from 1770 to 1870, was a crossing of a watershed boundary. The rate of growth of humanity’s technological and organizational capabilities took a fourfold upward leap, from 0. 04 percent per year to 0. 15 percent per year. #4 The Industrial Revolution was not inevitable, and it was not the only world that could have experienced it. In fact, in most other worlds, there was no British Industrial Revolution at all. The growth of human technological and organizational capabilities would have been eaten up by global population growth of 0. 9 percent per year, or about 25 percent per generation.</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。 500円

Slouch Posture Panic in Modern America【電子書籍】[ Beth Linker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The strange and surprising history of the so-called epidemic of bad posture in modern Americaーfrom eugenics and posture pageants to today’s promoters of “paleo posture”</strong></p> <p>In 1995, a scandal erupted when the <em>New York Times</em> revealed that the Smithsonian possessed a century’s worth of nude “posture” photos of college students. In this riveting history, Beth Linker tells why these photos were only a small part of the incredible story of twentieth-century America’s largely forgotten posture panicーa decades-long episode in which it was widely accepted as scientific fact that Americans were suffering from an epidemic of bad posture, with potentially catastrophic health consequences. Tracing the rise and fall of this socially manufactured epidemic, <em>Slouch</em> also tells how this period continues to feed today’s widespread anxieties about posture.</p> <p>In the early twentieth century, the eugenics movement and fears of disability gave slouching a new scientific relevance. Bad posture came to be seen as an individual health threat, an affront to conventional race hierarchies, and a sign of American decline. What followed were massive efforts to measure, track, and prevent slouching and, later, back painーcampaigns that reached schools, workplaces, and beyond, from the creation of the American Posture League to posture pageants. The popularity of posture-enhancing products, such as girdles and lumbar supports, exploded, as did new fitness programs focused on postural muscles, such as Pilates and modern yoga. By 1970, student protests largely brought an end to school posture exams and photos, but many efforts to fight bad posture continued, despite a lack of scientific evidence.</p> <p>A compelling history that mixes seriousness and humor, <em>Slouch</em> is a unique and provocative account of the unexpected origins of our largely unquestioned ideas about bad posture.</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。 4,037円

Slouch【電子書籍】[ Christina Wyman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>A <em>USA TODAY</em> BESTSELLER</strong></p> <p><strong>“The next great middle grade author.”</strong> ーColby Sharp, literacy advocate</p> <p><strong>A "Best Book of the Month" from Barnes & Noble and Amazon.com</strong></p> <p><strong>From the author of <em>Jawbreaker,</em> this <em>USA Today</em> bestseller is a funny and fresh middle-grade novel about a tall girl navigating friends, family, self-esteem, and boundaries.</strong></p> <p>Stevie Crumb doesn’t want to stand out. But when you’re nearly five foot ten in seventh grade, it’s kind of hard not to. All anyone wants to talk about is Stevie’s heightーincluding Stevie’s parents, who would just love for her to be an athlete like her basketball-star older brother. Sure, Stevie wants to be good at somethingーmaybe even great at something. She’d just prefer it didn’t draw more attention to her lanky frame.</p> <p>A chance encounter leads Stevie to the school’s debate team instead, where she meets cute fellow debater Cedric. He’s shorter than she is, and Stevie doesn’t think anything of itーuntil her best friend points it out. Then strange guys on the subway start making comments about Stevie’s body, tooーwhich is not only annoying, but scary and unsafe. It’s time for Stevie to ask for help, set some boundaries, and realize that standing up (and standing out) isn’t such a bad thing after all.</p> <p>From the breakout author of <em>Jawbreaker</em>, <em>Slouch</em> is a new must-read story about growing up and growing into yourself, inch by inch. It’s ideal for readers ages 8-12 who love Raina Telgemeier, Terri Libenson, Kelly Yang, Gordon Korman, and other endlessly funny and deeply heartfelt books that tackle big topics and universal coming-of-age experiences alike.</p> <p><strong>If you enjoyed <em>Slouch</em>, then you'll also love Christina Wyman’s bestselling debut, <em>Jawbreaker,</em> and her forthcoming book <em>Breakout</em>.

The Grunger or the Straight? The man who digs this new music called "grunge" or the one who still listens to classic rock? Will she achieve any semblance of happiness?

Slouching Toward Tyranny Mass Incarceration, Death Sentences and Racism【電子書籍】[ Joseph B. Ingle ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>As a pastor to Death Row inmates across the South and as a powerful advocate appealing to prison wardens, lawyers, judges, and legislators, Joseph Ingle has come to some shocking conclusions about the United States, champion of human rights throughout the world. He began to recognize another aspect to US history: systematic oppression imposed by the very people who founded the country.</p> <p>After working with death-row inmates in the killing ground of the South, where he had lost over twenty people to the executioner since 1979, Rev. Ingle made his way to Harvard University on a Merrill Fellowship in 1991 where he began a twenty-year process of reading, writing and continued work with the condemned. Here, he began to comprehend what he had been experiencing in the United States, foremost advocate of democratic government and a champion of human rights throughout the world. He found it difficult to even face the contradictions he perceived. And he began to ask whether, in fact, we have to consider the government of our country in terms of tyranny.</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。 2,127円

Slouching towards Gaytheism Christianity and Queer Survival in America【電子書籍】[ W. C. Harris ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Argues that homophobia will not be eradicated in the United States until religion is ended.</strong></p> <p><em>Slouching towards Gaytheism</em> brings together two intellectual traditions-the New Atheism and queer theory-and moves beyond them to offer a new voice for gay Americans and atheists alike. Examining the continued vehemence of homophobia in cultural and political debate regarding queer equality, this unabashed polemic insists that the needs met by religion might be met-more safely and less toxically-by forms of community that do not harass and malign gay and lesbian Americans or impede collective social progress. W. C. Harris argues that compromises with traditional religion, no matter how enlightened or well intentioned, will ultimately leave heteronormativity alive and well. He explores a range of recent movements, such as Dan Savage's "It Gets Better" project, reparative "ex-gay" therapy, Christian purity culture, and attempts by liberal Christians to reconcile religion with homosexuality, and shows how these proposed solutions are either inadequate or positively dangerous. According to the author, the time has come for "gaytheism": leaving religion behind in order to preserve queer dignity, rights, and lives.</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。 5,005円

Slouching Towards Kalamazoo A Novel【電子書籍】[ Peter De Vries ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>The classic American coming of age novel of a precocious young man and the lessons learned from his tutor by “a masterly entertainer and social satirist” (<em>The New York Times</em>).</strong></p> <p>It is 1963 in an unnamed town in North Dakota, and Anthony Thrasher is languishing for a second year in eighth grade. Prematurely sophisticated, young Anthony spends too much time reading Joyce, Eliot, and Dylan Thomas but not enough time studying the War of 1812 or obtuse triangles. A tutor is hired, and this "modern Hester Prynne" offers Anthony lessons that ultimately free him from eighth grade and situate her on the cusp of the American sexual revolution.</p> <p>In Slouching Towards Kalamazoo, Peter De Vries finds the perfect vehicle for his eridute wit in Anthony’s restless adolescent voice. Demonstrating a fascination with both language and female anatomy, Anthony’s pitch-perfect narration propels this satirical coming of age tale through theological debates and quandaries both dermatological and ethical, while soaring on the De Vriesian hallmark of scrambling conventional wisdom for comic effect.</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。 1,320円

Slouching Towards Gomorrah Modern Liberalism and American Decline【電子書籍】[ Robert H. Bork ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In this <em>New York Times</em> bestselling book, Robert H. Bork, our country's most distinguished conservative scholar, offers a prophetic and unprecedented view of a culture in decline, a nation in such serious moral trouble that its very foundation is crumbling: a nation that slouches not towards the Bethlehem envisioned by the poet Yeats in 1919, but towards Gomorrah.</p> <p><em>Slouching Towards Gomorrah</em> is a penetrating, devastatingly insightful expos? of a country in crisis at the end of the millennium, where the rise of modern liberalism, which stresses the dual forces of radical egalitarianism (the equality of outcomes rather than opportunities) and radical individualism (the drastic reduction of limits to personal gratification), has undermined our culture, our intellect, and our morality.</p> <p>In a new Afterword, the author highlights recent disturbing trends in our laws and society, with special attention to matters of sex and censorship, race relations, and the relentless erosion of American moral values. The alarm he sounds is more sobering than ever: we can accept our fate and try to insulate ourselves from the effects of a degenerating culture, or we can choose to halt the beast, to oppose modern liberalism in every arena. The will to resist, he warns, remains our only hope.</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。 2,200円

Slouching Towards Sirte NATO's War on Libya and Africa【電子書籍】[ Maximilian Forte ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>NATO’s war in Libya was proclaimed as a humanitarian interventionーbombing in the name of “saving lives.” Attempts at diplomacy were stifled. Peace talks were subverted. Libya was barred from representing itself at the UN, where shadowy NGOs and “human rights” groups held full sway in propagating exaggerations, outright falsehoods, and racial fear mongering that served to sanction atrocities and ethnic cleansing in the name of democracy. The rush to war was far speedier than Bush’s invasion of Iraq. Max Forte has scrutinized the documentary history from before, during, and after the war. He argues that the war on Libya was not about human rights, nor entirely about oil, but about a larger process of militarizing U.S. relations with Africa. The development of the Pentagon’s Africa Command, or AFRICOM, was in fierce competition with Pan-Africanist initiatives such as those spearheaded by Muammar Gaddafi. Far from the success NATO boasts about or the “high watermark” proclaimed by proponents of the “Responsibility to Protect,” this war has left the once prosperous, independent and defiant Libya in ruin, dependency and prolonged civil strife.</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。 1,300円

Slouching Towards Bethlehem ...and Further Psychoanalytic Explorations【電子書籍】[ Nina Coltart ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In 1982, Nina Coltart gave a paper to the English-Speaking Conference of Psychoanalysts called "Slouching towards Bethlehem ... or Thinking the Unthinkable in Psychoanalysis", which created a stir and brought her to the attention of the psychoanalytic community. Ten years later, she produced her first book - this book - which contained her seminal paper, alongside so many others of note. Full of eloquent, meaningful, and provocative clinical stories - including "The Treatment of a Transvestite", "What Does It Mean: 'Love Is Not Enough?'", "The Analysis of an Elderly Patient", and "The Silent Patient" - Nina Coltart exposes the full truth of the therapeutic process, where the analyst may occasionally stray from orthodox practice but how such lapses can sometimes provide unforeseen breakthroughs in treatment. This volume introduced Coltart's characteristic style of journeying through important issues in analytic practice. She elaborates on the use of intuition, the "special" attention required by an analyst, the value of silence, and of humour, and the importance of psychosomatic processes - the way the body speaks through psychosomatic symptoms. All vitally relevant today and positively groundbreaking at the time.</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。 4,472円

Slouching Towards Sirte NATO's War on Libya and Africa【電子書籍】[ Maximilian Forte ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>A comprehensive analysis, this book examines all the justifications and myths about the war on Libya and methodically dismantles them. It delineates the documentary history of events, processes, and decisions that led up to the war while underscoring its resulting consequences. Arguing that NATO’s war is part of a larger process of militarizing U.S. relations with Africaーwhich sees the development of the Pentagon’s AFRICOM as being in competition with Pan-African initiativeーthis account shows that Western relations with a “rehabilitated” Libya were shaky at best, mired in distrust, and exhibiting a preference for regime change.</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。 3,292円

Slouching Towards Bethlehem Essays【電子書籍】[ Joan Didion ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Celebrated, iconic, and indispensable, Joan Didion’s first work of nonfiction, <em>Slouching Towards Bethlehem</em>, is considered a watershed moment in American writing. First published in 1968, the collection was critically praised as one of the “best prose written in this country.”</strong></p> <p>More than perhaps any other book, this collection by one of the most distinctive prose stylists of our era captures the unique time and place of Joan Didion’s focus, exploring subjects such as John Wayne and Howard Hughes, growing up in California and the nature of good and evil in a Death Valley motel room, and, especially, the essence of San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury, the heart of the counterculture. As Joyce Carol Oates remarked: “[Didion] has been an articulate witness to the most stubborn and intractable truths of our time, a memorable voice, partly eulogistic, partly despairing; always in control.”</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。 1,698円

Summary of Joan Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem【電子書籍】[ ? Everest Media ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The San Bernardino Valley is a strange place, not the coastal California of the subtropical twilights and the soft westerlies off the Pacific, but a harsher California haunted by the Mojave just beyond the mountains. #2 Banyan Street was the route Lucille Miller took home from the twenty-four-hour Mayfair Market on the night of October 7, 1964. Her 1964 Volkswagen came to a sudden stop, and began to burn. For an hour and fifteen minutes, Lucille Miller ran up and down Banyan calling for help, but no cars passed and no help came. #3 The murder of Gordon Miller’s wife, Lucille, was a Southern California story. She was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, in 1930, the only child of Gordon and Lily Maxwell, both schoolteachers and Seventh-Day Adventist Church members. #4 The Millers’ marriage was not immune to the typical tensions of love and money. They had reached the traditional truce, the point at which many resign themselves to cutting their losses and hopes. But the season of trouble was not to end that easily.</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。 500円
