Compassion for Humanity in the Jewish Tradition
ISBN: 9780765799876 / Angielski / Twarda / 1998 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. For many Jews and non-Jews, the Torah, the Talmud and other rabbinic writings have long been interpreted as saying that the Jews alone are God's chosen people. According to Sears, The Path of the Baal Shem Tov, such readings have led to a struggle among Jews between assimilation--losing their particular Jewish identity--and withdrawal--preserving their particular Jewish identity and surviving as a people. Sears contends that this struggle between particularism and universalism is often misguided, for he argues that the particularism of Judaism engenders a "model of spirituality and moral...

ISBN: 9780306820106 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1951, James Michener went to Korea to report on a little-known aspect of America's stalemated war: Navy aviators.

Using Michener's notes, author David Sears tracked down the actual pilots to tell their riveting true stories. The result, Such Men As These, brims with action-packed accounts of combat, from the icy, windswept decks of aircraft carriers to the treacherous skies over Korea, while providing unforgettable portraits of the pilots whose skill and sacrifice made...

The Last Epic Naval Battle: Voices from Leyte Gulf
ISBN: 9780275985202 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Often overshadowed by other Pacific War engagements such as Midway or Guadalcanal, the Battle of Leyte Gulf was characterized by some of the most gallant hours in seagoing history: the U.S. Navy's defeat of the combined Japanese fleet during the invasion of the Philippines in October 1944. Involving more ships than even the gargantuan First World War Battle of Jutland and two hundred thousand men, it was the biggest naval battle in world history. It marked the last time that huge capital ships fought within sight and sound of each other. Using the personal accounts of the men who were...

Tax Revolt: Something for Nothing in California, Enlarged Edition
ISBN: 9780674868366 / Angielski / Miękka / 1985 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A tax revolt almost as momentous as the Boston Tea Party erupted in California in 1978. Its reverberations are still being felt, yet no one is quite sure what general lessons can be drawn from observing its course. This book is an in-depth study of this most recent and notable taxpayers' rebellion: Howard Jarvis and Proposition 13, the Gann measure of 1979, and Proposition 9 (Jarvis II) of 1980. The people of California, speaking directly through referenda, redirected their state from an intense and expensive concern for the welfare of its citizens to a far more circumspect role. The...

American Identity and the Politics of Multiculturalism
ISBN: 9780521828833 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 354 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The civil rights movement and immigration reform transformed American politics in the mid-1960s. Demographic diversity and identity politics raised the challenge of e pluribus unum anew, and multiculturalism emerged as a new ideological response to this dilemma. This book uses national public opinion data and public opinion data from Los Angeles to compare ethnic differences in patriotism and ethnic identity and ethnic differences in support for multicultural norms and group-conscious policies. The authors find evidence of strong patriotism among all groups and the classic pattern of...

The Last Epic Naval Battle: Voices from Leyte Gulf
ISBN: 9780451221322 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. By October, 1944, Japan's once-mighty naval power was almost extinguished. But in one last desperate bid, the Japanese gathered and combined their forces to defeat the Pacific Fleet of the United States Navy. With more ships engaged than there were even in the gargantuan World War I Battle of Jutland-and 200,000 men fighting on the sea and in the air- the Battle of Leyte Gulf was a hellish cacophony of cannon fire, murderous strafing airplanes, and deadly explosions. Here, in the words of the men who were there, are the dramatic accounts of what really happened at Leyte. Though...
