This edition includes the letters exchanged between Charles S.
Peirce and the Open Court Publishing Company between 1890 and 1913.
Open Court published more of Peirce's philosophical writings than
any other publisher during his lifetime, and played a critical role
in what little recognition and financial income he received during
these difficult, yet philosophically rich, years. This
correspondence is the basis for much of what is known surrounding
Peirce's publications in The Monist and The Open Court-two of the
publishers most popular forums for philosophical, scientific, and
religious thought-and is therefore referenced heavily in Peirce
editions dealing partly or wholly with his later work, including
The Essential Peirce series and Writings of Charles S. Peirce. The
edition provides for the first time a complete text of this
oft-cited correspondence, with textual apparatus, contextual
annotation, and careful replications of existential graphs and
other complex illustrations. By so doing, this edition sheds
critical light not only on Peirce and Open Court, but also on the
context, relationships, and concepts that influenced the
development of Progressive Era intellectual history and philosophy.
A practical guide to improve classes that are bored, hostile,
aggressive or just not quite right. The book provides tips form
making small class teaching more effective, with practical
suggestions for a broad range of problems that teachers regularly
encounter.
Prolonged economic downturn is forcing policy makers and professors
to examine how to improve economic development. State and regional
governments are therefore moving from public sector-led strategies
to private sector-led strategies to enact substantial
business-friendly policy reforms. This view of growing economic
development sparks interest among public policy, public
administration, urban planning, and other academic programs to
teach about how America goes about implementing economic
development strategies at the state and local level. The Energy
Economy is a public policy and current affairs focused economics
book targeted toward a public policy and current affairs audience.
It offers practical and topical discussions about the most
important economic issue of current times: energy.
