What's Wrong with the World
ISBN: 9781604505825 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A book of modern social inquiry has a shape that is somewhat sharply defined. It begins as a rule with an analysis, with statistics, tables of population, decrease of crime among Congregationalists, growth of hysteria among policemen, and similar ascertained facts; it ends with a chapter that is generally called "The Remedy." It is almost wholly due to this careful, solid, and scientific method that "The Remedy" is never found. (excerpt from "What's Wrong with the World")

If You Came This Way: A Journey Through the Lives of the Underclass
ISBN: 9781497682320 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At each stage of their lives--from infant cribs to teen dropouts to welfare dependents to basement shelters for the elderly--the people of the underclass are shunned by the rest of the population, even by the working poor. The cycle is vicious: Underclass children get little help in their own homes (when they have homes); they are shoved aside at school until they drop out like their parents did; they are unable to find decent work without an education; they have children of their own for whom they cannot provide adequate care; and finally, they are dumped into human (but inhumane) warehouses...

ISBN: 9780998419640 / Angielski / Miękka / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is your notification. Humanity is out of touch. And the touch screen is to blame. Ironic, isn't it? Every digital process, each social media exchange, takes us three steps forward and two steps back in connectivity. We're inundated by an almost infinite number of systems, sensors, and syncs. It won't be long before our minds won't decode VR (Virtual Reality) from RL (Real Life). Our brains have been hacked, rewired toward the artificial. We are logging-off mankind to enjoy man made. And, now, we face an identity crisis. How exactly are we to be in the world without being of the World... This is your notification. Humanity is out of touch. And the touch screen is to blame. Ironic, isn't it?

The fundamental question asked by this book is: Why is it that most of the scientific research that is done to...

ISBN: 9781599540269 / Angielski / Miękka / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Literary Nonfiction. This book includes essays on the phenomenon of the "guido": its origins and its relationship to the Italian/American community. The writers share their own views on a phenomenon that, in December 2009/January 2010, was filling newspapers and television programs, in reaction to the then new reality show Jersey Shore.
