Poetry & How It Gets That Way
ISBN: 9781508737520 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 106 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the face of an ever diminishing interest in one of the oldest arts, poetry, this book serves as an introduction why that interest should be revived in schools and individuals: illustrating the loss that accrues by not doing so, and the benefits to society through a passionate involvement in the poetic arts. Poetry has been an essential art in history and is in danger of being trivialized into extinction. Several seminal events in recent literary history are detailed in illustrating how poetry is not merely an adjunct to history and culture but can elucidate, influence and in changing...

The Conservative Nanny State: How the Wealthy Use the Government to Stay Rich and Get Richer
ISBN: 9781411693951 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In his new book, economist Dean Baker debunks the myth that conservatives favor the market over government intervention. In fact, conservatives rely on a range of "nanny state" policies that ensure the rich get richer while leaving most Americans worse off. It's time for the rules to change.

Dean Baker is co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research.

Rigged: How Globalization and the Rules of the Modern Economy Were Structured to Make the Rich Richer
ISBN: 9780692793367 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 258 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. There has been an enormous upward redistribution of income in the United States in the last four decades. In his most recent book, Baker shows that this upward redistribution was not the result of globalization and the natural workings of the market. Rather, it was the result of conscious policies that were designed to put downward pressure on the wages of ordinary workers while protecting and enhancing the incomes of those at the top. Baker explains how rules on trade, patents, copyrights, corporate governance, and macroeconomic policy were rigged to make income flow upward.

Getting Prices Right: Debate Over the Consumer Price Index

Compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the CPI is used to index Social Security payments and many other federal programs, as well as to adjust tax brackets. Today, the accuracy of the CPI is being hotly debated, particularly in light of the Boskin Commission report that concluded in December 1996 that the CPI overstates inflation by 1.1%.

It would have a direct impact on the lives of Americans who are beneficiaries of government programs as well as on...

The second volume in the two volume series of early poems covering between 1970 - 1980. The first volume is Measuring Gravity By Grace. Through what we might consider limitations perception alters both experience and conclusion in these poems. These are not the poems of our grandfathers or grandmothers, not even of the nearest generation. These poems are evidence of the future, boundaries necessarily transcended in order to become more than the trappings of contemporary physicality. They move the individual through themselves and beyond their own native dimensions to a world of self-evident...
