Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Opportunity Lost, Marcus D. Pohlmann examines the troubling issue of why Memphis city school students are underperforming at alarming rates. His provocative interdisciplinary analysis, combining both history and social science, examines the events before and after desegregation, compares a city school to an affluent suburban school to pinpoint imbalances, and offers critical assessments of various educational reforms. In addition to his analysis of the problems, Pohlmann lays out educational reforms that run the gamut from early intervention and parental involvement to increasing teacher compensation, improving time utilization, and more. Pohlmann?s illuminating and original study has wide application for a problem that bedevils inner-city children everywhere and prevents the promise of equality from reaching all of our nation?s citizens. -- Book cover.
Download or read book Plan Z written by David Wragg and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2008-09-22 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-written yet concise history” of Hitler’s plan to build a massive naval fleet, why it failed, and how it may have affected the outcome of WWII (Nautical Research Journal). Except for the strength of the U-boat fleet at the height of the Battle of the Atlantic, the German Navy, or Kriegsmarine, was never a match for the Royal Navy, even though the latter was overstretched and fighting in the Atlantic, the Pacific, the Mediterranean, and the Arctic. It was not supposed to be that way. Hitler and his naval staff had a vision for a large and well-balanced fleet, including aircraft carriers. Plan Z was the name given for the massive fleet that Germany intended to build. However, the Plan relied on the outbreak of the war not occurring until at least 1942. This book examines the way in which such a fleet could have influenced the major battles between the Royal Navy and the Germans. Plan Z starts by looking at Germany’s history and ambitions as a maritime power. The relationships among the three armed forces, and between them and the Fuhrer, are also examined, along with the country’s economic and industrial position. Thanks to the author’s detailed research, Plan Z considers whether the Nazis’ ambitions could ever have been realized even if the war had been delayed due to the resource and manpower limitations—and also considers what the Royal Navy’s response could have been.

Download or read book Money written by Douglas Gale and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1982-09-30 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals mainly with what can be described as the general-equilibrium approach to monetary theory. The author does not attempt an encyclopaedic treatment, rather Gale investigates the central problems and ideas in the development of topical monetary theory. The first part of the book - technically the easier - deals with questions which will be recognized as falling within the traditional field of (macroeconomic) monetary theory, although the treatment is unflaggingly microeconomic. The second part is less conventional, dealing with the general equilibrium theory of money in a fundamental way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bogen undertitel er: Den franske flåde efter Frankrigs fald 1940. Denne kampagnes formål var, at sænke en flåde tilhørende en allieret nation og må have været et af premierminister W. Chruchills̀ største dilemmaer under den anden verdenskrig. Den franske flåde var på dette tidspunkt verdens 4. største og det kunne naturligvis ikke tillades, at den blev stillet til Hitlers disposition af den såkaldte Vichy-regering. Aktionen mod den franske flåde kulminerede med angrebet mod de i Mers-el-Kebir stationerede opankrede enheder den 3. juli 1940 med store franske tab til følge. En grundig og angiveligt velforsket redegørelse.
