Grave sites not only offer the contemporary viewer the physical
markers of those remembered but also a wealth of information about
the era in which the cemeteries were created. These markers hold
keys to our historical past and allow an entry point of
interrogation about who is represented, as well as how and why.
Grave History is the first volume to use southern cemeteries to
interrogate and analyze southern society and the construction of
racial and gendered hierarchies from the antebellum period through
the dismantling of Jim Crow. Through an analysis of cemeteries
throughout the South—including Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri, and Virginia, from the nineteenth
through twenty-first centuries—this volume demonstrates the
importance of using the cemetery as an analytical tool for
examining power relations, community formation, and historical
memory. Grave History draws together an interdisciplinary group of
scholars, including historians, anthropologists, archaeologists,
and social-justice activists to investigate the history of racial
segregation in southern cemeteries and what it can tell us about
how ideas regarding race, class, and gender were informed and
reinforced in these sacred spaces. Each chapter is followed by a
learning activity that offers readers an opportunity to do the work
of a historian and apply the insights gleaned from this book to
their own analysis of cemeteries. These activities, designed for
both the teacher and the student, as well as the seasoned and the
novice cemetery enthusiast, encourage readers to examine cemeteries
for their physical organization, iconography, sociodemographic
landscape, and identity politics.
The individual investor is taking more and more financial
responsibility on theirself. Benjamin Graham, Warren Buffett and
many other highly respected investors have warned them of the
difficulties that await them, but few investors heed their advice.
Instead, many savers try their luck in the great frenetic money
game, only to be consumed by the impersonal and uncompromising
world of Wall Street. Despite these hardships, it is now clear that
individual investors are a permanent fixture in the investing
world. It's best to realize this now. While the dangers and
difficulties of investing must be made clear, The Enterprising
Investor can not be ignored. We should work to insure the tools
they need to succeed are available, and this book aims to fill part
of that need. In the spirit of Graham and Dodd, it develops a
thorough and robust framework that The Enterprising Investor can
use as a firm foundation in this unsettled world.

Ce recueil est la version francaise de la publication en anglais
Football Referees ? You must be joking Toute une variete de
blagues, citations, dictons, anecdotes etc, tous aux depens des
arbitres. Quelques themes se repetent: le manque d'intelligence des
arbitres, leur cecite, l'attitude des joueurs, des spectateurs, de
l'epouse, pour n'en citer que quelques-uns. L'auteur, aussi, a
enrichi chaque theme avec des inventions de son cru. Heureusement
les commentateurs et les entraineurs, aussi bien que les joueurs et
les arbitres eux-memes continuent d'ajouter des histoires,
anecdotes et gaffes amusantes. Que ca continue. "
Sixteen activists and best-selling authors offer a lively, informal
introduction to values we can live by. Global Values 101 grew out
of one of the most popular courses ever offered at Harvard
University, in which some of the most original thinkers of our day
sat down with students and explored how ideas have made them-and
can make us-more engaged, involved, and compassionate citizens. In
these engrossing, essay-length interviews, which address the topics
of war, religion, the global economy, and social change, Amy
Goodman, host of the popular radio program Democracy Now, speaks
about the role of the independent media as gatekeeper and witness;
Lani Guinier, author of Tyranny of the Majority, reveals that
students' SAT scores more accurately describe the kind of car their
parents drive than the grades they will earn in college and shows
the way to a more equitable college admissions system; Howard Zinn,
author of A People's History of the United States, explores the
American Dream and exposes the myth of the "good war"; economist
Juliet Schor, author of Born to Buy and The Overspent American,
explains why Americans are willing to sacrifice quality of life to
attain financial success; former "mall rat" Naomi Klein, author of
No Logo: Taking Aim at the Brand Bullies, urges readers to go
global while fighting global conglomerates; and Katha Pollitt,
author of Reasonable Creatures: Essays on Women and Feminism,
employs her incisive wit to explore what it really means to be a
feminist in the Twenty First century. For anyone who has been moved
by idealism and longed to become a more proactive citizen, this
collection offers a range of stories on how progressive ethics can
inform, inspire, andultimately transform lives. Brian Palmer,
Ph.D., and Kate Holbrook were voted Harvard's best young faculty
member and teaching fellow, respectively. Ann S. Kim and Anna
Portnoy joined them as teaching fellows and documentary filmmakers.
