ISBN: 9780820452616 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 339 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. It is not always clear what actually constitutes -sexual harassment- or how it differs from other types of discrimination based on gender. Often, what is thought of as sexual harassment by one person might be considered simply rude or immature behavior by another. While sexual harassment is a major issue in American workplaces and schools, there is no bona fide consensus as to what sexual harassment really is.
This book is designed to bring together material on an issue that is currently troubling most workplaces and schools in the United States: the problem of how to deal with a...

Much Misunderstood Man: Selected Letters of Ambrose Bierce
ISBN: 9780814253328 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The binding thread throughout this edited collection of Ambrose Bierce's letters is the argument that Bierce has been too often vilified as a cynical misanthrope. Joshi and Schultz believe that Bierce's human side has been ignored by scholars, and they work here to rectify this oversight. The importance of this collection is underscored by the fact that no collection of Bierce's letters has been published since 1922. This selection represents a sampling of nearly one-half million words of Bierce's correspondence, which Joshi and Schultz are the first to gather and transcribe. The letters...

'What is lost if we vote by mail or computers rather than on election day?' 'What is the history and role of drinking and wagering in elections?' 'How does the electoral cycle generate the theatre of election night and inaugurations?' Elections are key public events - in a secular society the only real coming together of the social whole.

Lee Baldwin, fill the bulk of this volume, and they reveal Lovecraft's customary role of tutor and mentor to young devotees of weird fiction in the 1930s.

All the tales appeared between 1910 and 1927 in the pages of the popular family weekly The Youth's Companion. The stories featured the sort of spirited adventure popular at the time, but Schultz was more conscientious than other writers of the day in his depiction of American Indian life. Schultz first encountered the Blackfeet in Montana Territory in...
