shipmates is new york times bestselling author sarah vowell s exploration of the puritans and their journey to america to become the people of john winthrop s city upon a hill a shining example a city that cannot be hid to this day america views itself as a puritan nation but vowell investigates what that means and what it should mean what was this great political enterprise all about who were these people who are considered the philosophical spiritual and moral ancestors of our nation what vowell discovers is something far different from what their uptight shoe buckles and corn reputation might suggest the people she finds are highly literate deeply principled and surprisingly feisty their story is filled with pamphlet feuds witty courtroom dramas and bloody vengeance along the way she asks was massachusetts bay colony governor john winthrop a communitarian a christlike christian or conformity s tyrannical enforcer answer yes was rhode island s architect roger williams america s founding freak or the father of the first amendment same difference what does it take to get that jezebel anne hutchinson to shut up a hatchet what was the puritans pet name for the pope the great whore of babylon sarah vowell s special brand of armchair history makes the bizarre and esoteric fascinatingly relevant and fun she takes us from the modern day reenactment of an indian massacre to the mohegan sun casino from old timey puritan poetry where righteousness is rhymed with wilderness to a mayflower themed waterslide throughout the wordyshipmates is rich in historical fact humorous

castle to traditional families never asked for a handout this provocative book explodes cherished illusions about the last two centuries of american family life to expose the falseness sentimentality and self righteousness of our accepted familial morays description from barnesandnoble com call number hq535 c643 2000 posted in all public services all social sciences early childhood education elementary education sociology leave a comment the way we really are coming to terms with america s changing families monday december 15 2008 by stephanie coontz stephanie coontz the author of the way we never were now turns her attention to the mythology that surrounds today s family the demonizing of untraditional family forms and marriage and parenting issues she argues that while it s not crazy to miss the more hopeful economic trends of the 1950s and 1960s few would want to go back to the gender roles and race relations of those years mothers are going to remain in the workforce family diversity is here to stay and the nuclear family can no longer handle all the responsibilities of elder care and childrearing coontz gives a balanced account of how these changes affect families both positively and negatively but she rejects the notion that the new diversity is a sentence of doom every family has distinctive resources and special vulnerabilities and there are ways to help each one build on its strengths and minimize its weaknesses the book provides a meticulously researched balanced account showing why a historically informed perspective on family life can be as much help to people in sorting through family issues as going into therapy and much more help than listening to today s political debates description from barnesandnoble com call number hq535 c644 1998 posted in

john tagg peter t ewell in the learning paradigm college john tagg builds on the ground breaking change magazine article he coauthored with robert barr in 1995 from teaching to learning a new paradigm for undergraduate education that piece defined a paradigm shift happening in american higher education placing more importance on learning outcomes and less on the quantity of instruction as tagg
