Trying Biology: The Scopes Trial, Textbooks, and the Antievolution Movement in American Schools
ISBN: 9780226029450 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In Trying Biology, Adam R. Shapiro convincingly dispels many conventional assumptions about the 1925 Scopes monkey trial. Most view it as an event driven primarily by a conflict between science and religion. Countering this, Shapiro shows the importance of timing: the Scopes trial occurred at a crucial moment in the history of biology textbook publishing, education reform in Tennessee, and progressive school reform across the country. He places the trial in this broad context alongside American Protestant antievolution sentiment and in doing so sheds new light on the trial and the...

In this addictive and highly original debut novel a fifteen-year-old boy dies mysteriously, leaving behind a secret ledger filled with his darkly comic confessions. Whether fantasizing about being a minority, breaking into his neighbors' homes, or gunning down an exotic bird, Henry Every's wayward quest for betterment sometimes bordered on the criminal.

A collection of candid and illuminating break-up stories resulting from three years of interviews by an Oscar-nominated documentary filmmaker--"a wonderful and important piece of thinking and reporting" (Elizabeth Gilbert).

Believing that you learn more from failure than from success, he spent the next three years criss-crossing the country with a tape recorder,...
