Lớp Khoa Học Của Lợn Con - Du Hành Vào Vũ Trụ Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Pack Myoung Sig

Modern classic. This is the book that I would write, if I could write. I absolutely loved it- the imagery, the simplicity, the longing of its characters. This is Robinson's first novel, and she waited over twenty years to write Gilead, her second. If it's anything like Housekeeping, I'm sure it will have been worth the wait.

Overall, I liked this book. I found the first of the four parts somewhat excruciating, and the last part somewhat dry. I liked the "truths" scattered throughout the novel, as well as her treatment of Alice: her growth as a person as well as the compromises that she makes in her marriage. There was some tension for me regarding what was real history and what was completely fabricated. Some basic facts about Laura Bush's life are altered (I presume to remind us that this is a work of fiction), yet since some parts are clearly about the Bushes, it left me wondering why some things were changed and others not. And I also wondered what was true and what was not. I haven't checked out the author's website yet but probably will to see if there is more information there. Laura Bush is certainly an interesting public figure, and many people, myself included, probably do wonder what she is doing married to a man like George W.

onceuponawanderer.blogspot.com Author: Stephanie Perkins Pages:338 Publisher: Dutton Publication: September 29th 2011 Age Group: Young Adult (14-18) Book Source: Library Challenge(s)- To Be Read (2012) Lola- intensely awesome, unique, blooming designer- she vowed never to wear the same outfit twice. Max- Lola's Boyfriend. Your average jerk rocker- ready to go on tour. Cricket Belle- Twin of the dreaded Calliope (Perfect) Belle. He's tall, sweet, hilarious and has been neighbors on and off throughout Lola's life. It's been two years since Cricket and Calliope Belle have lived next door to Lola. Neighbors have been in and out and every time Lola is on high alert- wary of new moves in. That is until her worst nightmare comes true. The Belle Twins are back. And Right Next Door. Now all sorts of roller coaster (ish) feelings are being resurrected for Lola. Her hatred for Calliope. Her Love for Cricket. Her Hatred for Cricket. It's all too much- and Lola's about to crack- but she can't do anything considering she has hyperactive, jealous, bulldog-of-a-boyfriend Max on a leash. Soon Lola must dive chin-deep in the past and finally get some closure; or have her only dream come true- with the boy next door. Lola- ah Lola. So describable, unpredictable and unprepared. She is altogether wonderful. If I ever have a fictional wedding/prom/formal event- Lola is SO TOTALLY designing my dress. Oh yeah- she is THAT FREAKIN' GOOD!! Now onto the book.... I just devoured this book- it was fantastic, I read it in one night. ONE. NIGHT. I devoured it just like I devoured Anna and The French Kiss. It was so realistic, believable and Oh Mah God- romantic. I know it most likely any book Perkins writes- I am guaranteed to love, rave and psychotically shove and tell people to read it. She is THAT good. A theme I thought was hinted throughout this book was regrets... Not necessarily not doing anything, but not doing what you wanted to do most. Because if you don't go after it when you have the chance- its almost 100% likely you will NEVER get that chance again ever... then you spend the rest of your life- WALLOWING, in regrets, wishing and daydreaming. So always take opportunity's when they arise. Perkins always writes with great realistic situations- but GOSH- she gives her girly main characters LOTS of chances. So to wrap up this review- I loved this book and you have got to read this book- and did I mention Anna and Etienne make an appearance. Yeah- it is fantastic. And Cricket- is so mine. No matter what you guys say he is perfect for me- ME. (!!!) Yeah- suck-it. And that last line for this book- is the best- the moon and stars thing- adorableness~ all in all- better than ever. Cannot wait for Isla and the Happily Ever After (!!!!!!)

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: The Windy

In her forward, Jacobs writes "Readers unwilling or unable to breach a barrier that they imagine separates humankind and its works from the rest of nature will be unable to hear what this book is saying." This is, in my experience, profoundly true, and much of what passes for economic intelligence and reason is little more than ideology propped up by delimited reason and thinking. I was pleasantly surprised at how Jacobs' ideas confirmed my own observation of the paucity of true rationality and reason within 'official' economic ideology. A few have commented on how much they disliked the dialogue approach Jacobs has taken in this book, but I found, after my initial surprise, that allowing it to move is a stimulating and enjoyable way of exploring ideas. I think that this book is a very important critique of economic practices, thinking and ideology. I was tempted to write powerful, but as this was written more than 20 years ago, and just about every manner of economic fallacy Jacobs discusses have become even more pervasive is a true measure of how unreasonable are those who in high places practice economic arcana that are bankrupting societies and people while enriching corporations and their owners.

This was the most interesting book I've ever read. Looking at several phenomena statistically, and in terms of incentives, Steven Levitt shows us the raw power of data. A geek's dream.

It seems appropriate that I read this curmudgeonly love story to the US in the days following 9/11. I especially liked the parts about Iowa.

In this book, the author has collected some of his zany poems about people from all over the world. The poems have great sounds and rhythms and are better when read aloud! Zephaniah has traveled the world and this book includes poems about the Maoris, Chinese, British, Bengali, Cherokee, Kurds, immigrants, refugees, and just people. The poems are intended for children and teenagers. I truly enjoy this author’s way with words! He uses simple words and sentences, but they have such great rhythm and rhyme that you can’t help but read them aloud to someone else. I think this a great book to use in a middle school or high school Social Studies class as a way to integrate language arts. The poems present all cultures positively. My favorite poems are “People Need People”, “Who are We?”, and “The Tourists are Coming” (I think I must have visited some of the same places he did!). The poems are all light, easy-to-read, and help us get over our stereotypes that we may have about others! This author has visited Cairo and was a big success at a local British school.

Dead Aid is an interesting, provocative look at the foreign aid industry and its effects on Africa. Dambisa Moyo, who formerly worked for Goldman Sachs and the World Bank, draws a conclusion not unknown to others in the field: development aid (as differentiated from humanitarian aid) has not only done little good for the nations of Africa but has indeed caused great harm. While I don't necessarily disagree with her conclusion, I didn't find her arguments particularly convincing. There is no question that much of the aid intended to build economies in Africa has been grossly wasted, stolen, and misused. There is little to show for the trillions of dollars that have been poured into the continent--a failure with numerous causes. But Moyo's main premise is that aid itself is the cause, that it creates a culture dependent on foreign handouts and rife with corruption that, according to the author, apparently wouldn't exist if aid weren't available. I find both arguments hard to swallow, especially since they are based mostly on the logical premise of cum hoc ergo propter hoc (with this, therefore because of this). In this thinking, when aid is given, the recipients don't develop other resources, therefore aid causes them to not try. It's the same argument that's been used for years to oppose welfare programs applied in this instance not to individuals, but to entire nations. I find that a little facile. I suspect aid fails more often because it is poorly structured and managed, an argument that Moyo essentially dismisses out of hand. Whether you agree with Moyo's reasoning or not, you have to seriously question the solutions she proposes. While outlining a litany of worthwhile approaches to economic development including micro-lending, opening markets in the developed world to African products, and more foreign direct investment (FDI), her silver bullet is a solution only an investment banker could love: the bond market. Somehow, Moyo expects the magic of the free market financial system to end corruption in Africa, stop wasteful spending, and power the continent out of poverty. I react to that proposal the same way Jaime Talon, one of the lead characters in my novel, Heart of Diamonds, did when confronted by a similar argument about a panhandler in New York: "What matters is that right now--today--that man over there is hungry. Somebody needs to do something about that, not just ignore it and hope the holy and all-powerful market economy will provide a solution." I have to ask, given the brilliant performance of Wall Street and Fleet Street in providing structured finance for America and Europe, how can we expect them to solve the problems of Africa? These are the people who brought us sub-sub-prime mortgages wrapped in gilt-edged bond ratings and called gold. Their ability to assess risk and police wasteful government spending in Kinshasa is rather suspect, at least to me. I also fail to see how corrupt leaders and their minions will be any less likely to steal funds from private lenders than they are from the World Bank. Perhaps my most significant objection, though is when Moyo says the developing nations will be better served paying ten percent interest (the rate she quotes for emerging market debt in 2007) than the 0.75% they are charged by the World Bank. How does that work to anyone's advantage other than the investment bankers? Don't misunderstand my review. I agree with many of Moyos' conclusions and her objections to the current approach to foreign aid. Mandating the purchase of American products with American aid dollars, for example, is enormously wasteful, self-serving, and undoubtedly harms the African farmers and manufacturers such aid could help. She's also dead on when she calls for an improved business climate in Africa so that direct investment, both foreign and local, stands a better chance to succeed. Pulling Africa out of the swamp of poverty is a complex operation. I applaud Dambisa Moyo for presenting a provocative set of arguments in clear, understandable layman's prose. Dead Aid brings an important subject into the public eye.
