In this signal work of history, Bancroft Prize winner andPulitzer Prize finalist Lizabeth Cohen shows how the pursuit ofprosperity after World War II fueled our pervasive consumermentality and transformed American life. Trumpeted as a means to promote the general welfare, massconsumption quickly outgrew its economic objectives and becamesynonymous with patriotism, social equality, and the AmericanDream. Material goods came to embody the promise of America, andthe power of consumers to purchase everything from vacuum cleanersto convertibles gave rise to the power of citizens to purchasepolitical influence and effect social change. Yet despiteundeniable successes and unprecedented affluence, mass consumptionalso fostered economic inequality and the fracturing of societyalong gender, class, and racial lines. In charting the complexlegacy of our “Consumers’ Republic” Lizabeth Cohen has written abold, encompassing, and profoundly influential book.

Based on a nationwide survey and confidential interviews withmore than three thousand men, bestselling author of For WomenOnly , Shaunti Feldhahn, has written a startling andunprecedented exploration of how men in the workplace tend tothink, which even the most astute women might otherwise miss. In The Male Factor, Feldhahn investigates and quantifies theprivate thoughts that men almost never publicly reveal or admit to,but that every woman will want to know. Never before has an author gotten inside the hearts and minds ofmen in the workplace—from CEOs to managers, from lawyers to factoryworkers—to get a comprehensive and confidential picture of what mencommonly think about their female colleagues, how they viewflextime and equal compensation, what their expected “rules” of theworkplace are, what managing emotion means, and how that lowcut topis perceived. Because the men in the surveys and interviews wereguaranteed anonymity, they talk in a candid and uncensored wayabout their daily interactions

Written by an expert on alternative bodywork, this bookpresents techniques for manipulating the soft tissues of the backin a safe, simple manner. The method avoids the high velocity, lowamplitude thrusting techniques employed by chiropractors. Instead,it utilizes the intuitive sense of somatic bodyworkers combinedwith the proven theory and technique of Rolfing to provide safe andeffective treatment. Maitland shows how to elegantly release jointfixations in the spine, sacrum, pelvis, and ribcage by using subtlesoft tissue techniques, rather than the thrusting techniques that"pop" the joints. This gentler kind of individualized Rolfing workis thoroughly described within an explanation of biomechanics,aided by drawings and photographs which depict techniques andanatomy.

This book examines the theology and ethics of land use,especially the practices of modern industrialized agriculture, inlight of critical biblical exegesis. Nine interrelated essaysexplore the biblical writers' pervasive concern for the care ofarable land against the background of the geography, socialstructures, and religious thought of ancient Israel. This approachconsistently brings out neglected aspects of texts, both poetry andprose, that are central to Jewish and Christian traditions. Ratherthan seeking solutions from the past, Davis creates a conversationbetween ancient texts and contemporary agrarian writers; thus sheprovides a fresh perspective from which to view the destructivepractices and assumptions that now dominate the global foodeconomy. The biblical exegesis is wide-ranging and sophisticated;the language is literate and accessible to a broad audience.
