The Heart of an Engineer: Making a Recovery
ISBN: 9781434347633 / Angielski / Miękka / 132 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The largest section of my book is the collection of poetry that I have written over the last 30 years. They are remarkable in part because they were written by a talented engineer, in part because they were replaced by dreams as a way of keeping track of my subconscious mind as the years went by. It's the last quarter of the book that I find most interesting. It contains considerable personal history as I recover from the isolation (lost in space!) of my childhood, with mxed results (both credit and blame) for the Parkinson's Disease and the deep brain surgery done to ease its ravages. But...

Until publication of Riches, Classes, and Power, Alexis de Tocquerville's vision of the United States as a generally egalitarian nation predominated. While historians might quarrel about the social sources of egalitarianism, they did not dispute the soundness of the basic model; and Tocqueville's vision clearly dominated American's sense of itself as well. A self-acknowledged congenital skeptic, Pessen decided to find out whether the facts of American life sustained Tocqueville's conclusions. Riches, Class, and Power, represents more than five years' intensive...
