Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many Americans in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the West was simultaneously the greatest symbol of American opportunity, the greatest story of its history, and the imagined blank slate on which the country’s future would be written. From the Spanish-American War in 1898 to the Great Depression’s end, from the Mississippi to the Pacific, policymakers at various levels and large-scale corporate investors, along with those living in the West and its borderlands, struggled over who would define modernity, who would participate in the modern American West, and who would be excluded. In Making a Modern U.S. West Sarah Deutsch surveys the history of the U.S. West from 1898 to 1940. Centering what is often relegated to the margins in histories of the region—the flows of people, capital, and ideas across borders—Deutsch attends to the region’s role in constructing U.S. racial formations and argues that the West as a region was as important as the South in constructing the United States as a “white man’s country.” While this racial formation was linked to claims of modernity and progress by powerful players, Deutsch shows that visions of what constituted modernity were deeply contested by others. This expansive volume presents the most thorough examination to date of the American West from the late 1890s to the eve of World War II.

Download or read book S lo Quien Se Siente Amado Puede Ser Educado written by Juan Bosco Abascal Carranza and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-10 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Se explica que para la salud humana la satisfacción de "Las Hambres Básicas" de Caricias, Tiempo y Reconocimiento es tan importante como la ingesta de alimentos, oxígeno y agua. Comprenderemos qué son las Endorfinas -la droga de salud, la alegría, el bienestar y el bienhacer. Conoceremos variadas formas de producirlas en nuestro organismo, pero ante todo la que nos proporciona las cinco ganancias más codiciadas: envejecer despacio, mantener un sistema inmunológico invencible, disponer de una gran energía, vivir alegremente, y poder superar cualquier dolor físico o corporal. Esta forma única es la práctica de las Virtudes: Prudencia, Justicia, Fortaleza, Templanza, Fe, Esperanza y Caridad. Queda demostrado que para educar a nuestros hijos en la Virtud, la receta no consiste en "hacer que ellos hagan lo que creemos que ellos deben hacer", ni mucho menos en lograr que "ellos hagan lo que los padres queremos", sino algo muy distinto: que dentro de un "Sistema Incondicional" de Caricias, Tiempo y Reconocimiento, les hagamos vivir la fuerza de nuestro Amor, para que "ellos quieran hacer habitualmente lo que conviene al Bien Común y al Bien Integral" de todos los involucrados en el proceso educativo. Para esto hace falta desarrollar un Liderazgo Transformador: sólo quien se siente amado puede ser educado. Se propone el justo medio entre los dos extremos en pugna: ni moralismo rígido, ni naturalismo hedonista o utilitario, sino del equilibrio entre esos dos extremos. Como estrategias auxiliares se plantea lo que es la Reingeniería de Valores y Virtudes, se analizan las Bases Filosóficas para Jerarquizar los Valores Operantes, Reales; y se propone la sana jerarquía de los Nueve Valores Universales, así como el rechazo de los Contravalores. El libro concluye con una explicación apasionante: ¿Quién Soy Yo? A la vez que se exponen los Fundamentos Filosóficos de la Dignidad de la Persona.

Download or read book Vitamin A and the Immune Function written by Chris Kjolhede and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Vitamin A and the Immune Function, individuals representing a spectrum of disciplines elucidate the relationship between vitamin A and immune function. Through this range of perspectives, the contributors, speakers at the Symposium on the Relationship Between Vitamin A and Immune Function, offer a useful, corrective lens for a subject often viewed simplistically within a single area of study in which few books cover the topic exclusively. The goal of the symposium and this volume is to review what is known about the the relationship between a specific micronutrient and a complex physiologic process from many experts’points of view and to promote discussion and speculation on basic mechanisms accounting for the interaction. Vitamin A and the Immune Function is an effort to share with many readers the collective thoughts of those in attendance and to provoke further thought on this important topic. The speakers, in this volume as authors, discuss what is known about the vitamin A/immune response interaction followed by discussions which probe at what is still unknown. The authors are experts from several disciplines, including biochemistry, nutrition, epidemiology, pediatrics, infectious diseases, and public health. Participants, who were encouraged to join in the discussion periods to raise questions and contribute ideas, broadened the range of disciplines represented to include international health, nutrition, and development. This book captures the symposium's energy and will stimulate researchers and students to consider the unanswered questions. The unique aspect of this book is the interdisciplinary approach to the relationship between vitamin A and immune function. Parochial perspectives on this topic have often left the logical mind with gnawing questions kindled by findings in other fields of research. The inquisitive researcher may be most incited by the section in this book presented by the experts from outside their primary field of interest. Vitamin A and the Immune Function may raise more questions for many readers than it answers but that is precisely its primary benefit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Miriam Pawel’s fascinating book . . . illuminates the sea change in the nation’s politics in the last half of the 20th century."--New York Times Book Review California Book Award Gold Medal Winner * Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize * A Los Angeles Times Bestseller * San Francisco Chronicle's "Best Books of the Year" List * Publishers Weekly Top Ten History Books for Fall * Berkeleyside Best Books of the Year * Shortlisted for NCIBA Golden Poppy Award A Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist's panoramic history of California and its impact on the nation, from the Gold Rush to Silicon Valley--told through the lens of the family dynasty that led the state for nearly a quarter century. Even in the land of reinvention, the story is exceptional: Pat Brown, the beloved father who presided over California during an era of unmatched expansion; Jerry Brown, the cerebral son who became the youngest governor in modern times--and then returned three decades later as the oldest. In The Browns of California, journalist and scholar Miriam Pawel weaves a narrative history that spans four generations, from August Schuckman, the Prussian immigrant who crossed the Plains in 1852 and settled on a northern California ranch, to his great-grandson Jerry Brown, who reclaimed the family homestead one hundred forty years later. Through the prism of their lives, we gain an essential understanding of California and an appreciation of its importance. The magisterial story is enhanced by dozens of striking photos, many published for the first time. This book gives new insights to those steeped in California history, offers a corrective for those who confuse stereotypes and legend for fact, and opens new vistas for readers familiar with only the sketchiest outlines of a place habitually viewed from afar with a mix of envy and awe, disdain, and fascination.

Download or read book The Spanish Redemption written by Charles Montgomery and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2002-03-20 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Spanish Redemption contributes an extremely important chapter to the burgeoning literature on the construction of whiteness in the United States, to our understanding of the shifting and complicated relationship between ethnicity and class, and a concrete example of how culture can be used to shape political and economic identities. With considerable dexterity and authority, with nuance and subtly, with newly utilized archival evidence, and with a glorious narrative flair, Montgomery fastidiously describes the racial politics that were played out through the cultural production of an imagined Spanish past."—Ramón Gutiérrez, author of When Jesus Came the Corn Mothers Went Away: Marriage, Sexuality, and Power in New Mexico, 1500-1846, and co-editor of Contested Eden: California Before the Gold Rush "Between the two world wars, villagers in northern New Mexico became Spanish Americans rather than Mexican Americans, and artists, writers, and boosters celebrated their previously despised arts, crafts, architecture, foods, and folkways. With probing intelligence and graceful, limpid prose, Montgomery tells the remarkable story of this shift in regional identity and its disturbing and enduring consequences. The "quaint" Hispano villages of northern New Mexico will never look the same."—David J. Weber, author of The Spanish Frontier in North America
