Economics Today
Pulsinelli Business & Investing Addison-Wesley Educational Publishers
Roger LeRoy Miller has improved the quality of Economics today from last year. The book is very resourceful and if used for a class, no student will do poorly in the class. The definitions and data are presented clearly. Economics Today looks at the economy of today and of the past and shows what is beneficial for the economy and what is not. This excellent book has helped me learn all the content and leaning me to consider a major in economics.

Educating for Survival
Ernest L. Boyer, Martin Kaplan Nonfiction Transaction Publishers

Education for Thinking
Deanna Kuhn Nonfiction Harvard University Press
What do we want schools to accomplish? The only defensible answer, Deanna Kuhn argues, is that they should teach students to use their minds well, in school and beyond.
Bringing insights from research in developmental psychology to pedagogy, Kuhn maintains that inquiry and argument should be at the center of a "thinking curriculum"—a curriculum that makes sense to students as well as to teachers and develops the skills and values needed for lifelong learning. We have only a brief window of opportunity in children's lives to gain (or lose) their trust that the things we ask them to do in school are worth doing. Activities centered on inquiry and argument—such as identifying features that affect the success of a music club catalog or discussing difficult issues like capital punishment—allow students to appreciate their power and utility as they engage in them.
Most of what students do in schools today simply does not have this quality. Inquiry and argument do. They are education for life, not simply more school, and they offer a unifying purpose for compulsory schooling as it serves an ever more diverse and challenging population.

The Elephant and the Dragon: The Rise of India and China and What It Means for All of Us
Robyn Meredith Business & Investing W. W. Norton
"A comprehensive primer on the development of these Asian tigers."—Noam Lupu, "San Francisco Chronicle"

"The Elephant and the Dragon" is the essential guide to understanding how India and China are reshaping our world. With labor now unbound from geographic borders, we're seeing startling shifts in how—and where—nearly everything we buy is made. In a compelling mix of history and on-the-ground reporting, veteran journalist Robyn Meredith untangles the complex web of business and politics, as well as environmental and cultural issues that entwine India, China, and the West. She also outlines how Americans—business leaders, workers, politicians, even parents—can understand the vast changes coming and thrive in this new age.

Emotions in Social Life: Critical Themes and Contemporary Issues
G. Bendelow Health, Mind & Body Routledge
The development of a sociology of emotions is crucial to our understanding of social life. Emotions are "social things"--controlled and managed in our everyday lives. Why is it then, that in Western social thought, emotions are disdainfully regarded as irrational and very often linked to a "hysterical" female?

"Emotions in Social Life" investigates how in the course of human history, this "rational" development of the separation of reason and feeling came into being, and how its institution was male-identified. In providing this comprehensive assessment of the sociology of emotions, this volume pushes forward the boundaries of sociological investigation, allowing for a better understanding of the social process. The international roster of scholars come from the fields of medical sociology, health psychology and gender studies.

Experiencing Architecture, 2nd Edition
Steen Eiler Rasmussen Professional & Technical The MIT Press
Profusely illustrated with fine instances of architectural experimentation through the centuries, "Experiencing Architecture" manages to convey the intellectual excitement of superb design. From teacups, riding boots, golf balls, and underwater sculpture to the villas of Palladio and the fish-feeding pavilion of the Peking Winter Palace, the author ranges over the less-familiar byways of designing excellence.

At one time, writes Rasmussen, "the entire community tool part in forming the dwellings and implements they used. The individual was in fruitful contact with these things; the anonymous houses were built with a natural feeling for place, materials and use and the result was a remarkably suitable comeliness. Today, in our highly civilized society, the houses which ordinary people are doomed to live in and gaze upon are on the whole without quality. We cannot, however, go back to the old method of personally supervised handicrafts. We must strive to advance by arousing interest in and understanding of the work the architect does. The basis of competent professionalism is a sympathetic and knowledgeable group of amateurs, of non-professional art lovers."
