Paper Abstract:
Analysis of Ron Suskind's 1998 book. Relates the true odyssey of a young African American man from inner city Washington, D.C. to Brown University and the Ivy League. The dream and hope of high school honor student Cedric to get out of the ghetto and achieve success. Discusses the personal, social and intellectual challenges Cedric faced. People who helped him achieve his goal.

Paper Introduction:
In 1963 the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered a memorable speech on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. “I have a dream,” he said, that black boys and black girls will be able to walk together as sisters and brothers, indeed to go to school together as equals. Dr. King did not live to see that dream come true. And in many parts of American society the dream remains an aspiration, a hope rather than a reality. For a young African American inner-city youth who grew up in Southeast Washington, D.C., many years after Dr. King’s speech, a dream of attending one of this country’s best white universities gives him purpose in life. Cedric Jennings, an honor student at crime-infested Ballou Senior High has a dream of achieving success and of

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on economic theory behind the negative aspects of post-WWII Amer. affluence.

Paper Introduction:
On the first page of his 1958 bestseller, The Affluent Society, John Kenneth Galbraith wrote that "wealth is the relentless enemy of understanding" (1). What he tried to point out was that, although getting gain had been a primary pursuit of Americans long before 1958, endless increases in production--even with an increasing ability to take a guiding hand in manufacturing demand--had become the key to contemporary affluence. And, while this had been producing ever-greater gain for some, it was also engendering severe want and other social problems at a correspondingly rapid rate. Those whose primary goal is the getting of gain had been proceeding without regard for the way this shaped society. And, wrapped up in increasing gain, these Americans seemed incapable of appreciating that want in others would eventually reach critical mass and prove to work

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on use of storytelling & narrative traditions in spiritual & moral counseling of blacks.

Paper Introduction:
This research will examine the book African American Pastoral Care by Edward P. Wimberly. The research will set forth the principal thesis of the work and then discuss how the pattern of ideas contained in the work and the means by which these ideas are conveyed can be applied to the practical experience of African American clergy with a pastoral ministry as well as to the individual minister's own spiritual growth. The main idea of African American Pastoral Care is that the custom and practice of storytelling that has been embedded for centuries into the culture of African peoples and African Americans can profitably be adapted, and indeed for optimum results must be adapted, along with certain modern theories and practices of developmental humanistic psychology, to the purpose of counseling and guiding parishioners and others seeking spiri

Paper Abstract:
(Richard Hofstadter). Critical review of study of Amer. politics from 1890 to 1940.

Paper Introduction:
THE AGE OF REFORM The Age of Reform by Richard Hofstadter won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 1956. The book was acclaimed because the author examined the political growth in America from the years 1890 to 1940, explaining the reform movement through several key figures, primarily William Jennings Bryan and Franklin Delano Roosevelt. In summarizing the book, it can be noted that Hofstadter divides his discussion into seven chapters. By beginning with an analysis of what he calls "the Agrarian Myth" and moving on to the reasons for populism, the study is able to focus on Bryan as a personification of what was needed in America. As a political leader, Bryan was President Wilson's Secretary of State from 1913 to 1915. During this time he helped in

Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to critically examine All the President's Men by Carl Bernstein and Bob Woodward. The most popular account of the entire "Watergate" affair, the book remains an excellent example of investigative reporting. The book covers the eighteen month period during which Bernstein and Woodward, working as reporters for The Washington Post, systematically uncovered many of the details surrounding President Richard Nixon's illegal political activities. Woodward and Bernstein were assigned the story as it first broke in June of 1972, with the arrest of five burglars who had been apprehended while breaking into the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee. The reporters' subsequent investigation, pursued in true detective fashion, utilized fragmentary clues found n address books, telephone calls, informants, and

Paper Abstract:
Reviews books on failure of govt. agencies and/or their members to fulfill their responsibilities & avoid corruption & abuse of power.

Paper Introduction:
When people get together to complain about the governments, the maladies they bring up take predictable forms. Taxes are too high. The government is too bureaucratic. And  as George Orwell so powerfully showed us in Animal Farm  power corrupts. The idea that government officials are corrupt is particularly troubling a democracy when the government is nothing more nor less than we ourselves, which is why there is something of a cottage industry in exposing government corruption. Such exposes have long been one of the main courses of American journalism, but book-length discussions of corruption also abound. These books have a number of different purposes, although nearly all of them seek to make people angry about a wrong that the writer perceives. Some writers are openly partisan

Paper Abstract:
Critiques book on barriers to women & benefits they bring to a business when placed in management positions.

Paper Introduction:
Judy B. Rosener, in her acclaimed work entitled, AmericaŐs Competitive Secret: Women Managers (1995), presents a strong academic case for increasing efforts in the business community to achieve gender parity in top management. This essay reviews RosenerŐs arguments and critiques her theories on gender parity. The emphasis of this essay is on RosenerŐs theory of beta leadership styles and its impact on the Quality of Work Life (QWL) as well as traditional business practices. After three decades of attention and concern directed toward women's parity in the workplace, there is still only a handful of success stories for women moving into upper management. While society is moving in the right direction, the movement is slow. Women have made strides, especially in

Paper Abstract:

How she came to know herself as a daughter, a sister, a maturing women and a romantic and sexual being. Her maturation experiences. Going through the tasks of adolescence. Anne's struggle to understand Nazi round up and exterminatin of Jews.

Paper Introduction:
Revealing “Anne”: The Diary of Anne Frank Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl has long been considered a remarkable document for two distinct reasons: one the one hand, the Diary is an intimate portrait of the Holocaust seen from the eyes of a young Jewish girl living in hiding; on the other hand, the Diary depicts the development of a young girl under difficult circumstances, but also describes the ways in which that young girl came to know herself as a daughter, a sister, a maturing woman, and a sexual and romantic being. Anne Frank’s writing of “Anne” as a person and an identity demonstrates that despite the traumas and anxieties of her situation, she was engaged in many of the developmental experiences and issues common to all adolescent females. For many young females, an integral part of maturation is coming to te

Paper Abstract:

Paper Introduction:
This research examines The Art of Managing People by Phillip L. Hunsaker and Anthony J. Alessandra. The research will discuss the ideas in the work and then go into detail about how those ideas are articulated, with a view toward evaluating whether and to what extent this book, originally published in 1980, continues to have relevance for workplace behavior and manager and worker satisfaction. What must be acknowledged by anyone who opens The Art of Managing People is what it does not do, which is present a densely argued, theory-driven historiography of American management methods. From first to last, the text is action oriented, not oblivious of theory but not overly concerned to analyze theory for its own sake. The assertion of a dynamic approach (p. xi) to management sets the stage for a concept of manag

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work arguing psychotherapy is an art using intuition in meaningful conversation.

Paper Introduction:
This paper is a review of James F. T. Bugental's The Art of the Psychotherapist. Written by a therapist with almost 50 years' experience, this book argues that truly effective psychotherapy is more of an art than a science. Bugental contends that the experienced therapist's most important tool is a highly developed intuitive sense, allowing him or her to understand the subjectivity of both the patient and the therapist. Bugental suggests that life-changing therapy is only possible when the therapist comprehends the unique way in which the client sees the world. His book is written for experienced therapists, instructors, and researchers; he cautions that his techniques cannot be used by therapists who have not yet gained a certain level of competence and experience. However, his techniques for mastering the art of meaningful conversation can

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on the communal & social nature of creation & appreciation of different forms of art.

Paper Introduction:
Art is not, as we have so often been told, in the eye of the beholder. Or rather it may be in the eyes of certain beholders acting in concert with each other. The premise of Howard Becker=s Art Worlds is simply this -- that art, like all other human activities, involves the joint activity of a number of people (Becker, 1982, p. 1). That humans work together to create a whole greater than each could produce individually should not come as a terribly remarkable surprise. The fact that we can accomplish more in groups than as isolated individuals is one of the most important (if not the most important) reason that humans gather together in societies to begin with. None of us would be surprised to learn that farming or textile production or the rail system is the result of a number of people working together, each providing a piece of the required labor and enabled to work joint

Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to examine changes in American immigration patterns of Asian American women after World War II. The plan of the research will be to set forth the context in which the shift in Asian immigration to the U.S. toward predominance of women occurred and then to discuss, with reference to Espiritu’s Asian American Women and Men, effects that these immigrant women have had on the general structure of Asian immigration to the U.S. and on the relationship between immigrant Asian men and women in particular. What Espiritu describes as “engendered” structures of relationships between Asian men and women in the U.S. and of the relationship between the dominant culture and Asian women is the focus of her analysis of the impact of the predominance of Asian women over Asian men as immigrants to the U.S. in recent years.

Paper Abstract:
(Burrough & Helyar). "The Fall of RJR Nabisco." Reviews work on troubles of firm in the hands of Ross Johnson.

Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this paper is to discuss the book, Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco, by Bryan Burrough and John Helyar. This meaty volume is an excellent chronicle of the downfall of a company whose resources and success were legendary in American business circles, but whose leaders during the feverish Reagan years risked everything on a gambit to enrich themselves, and ended up losing all of it. The story centers around one man, Ross Johnson, the flamboyant, free-spending former chief of Standard Brands and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco, who wanted more and more control and money, to the point of self-destruction. Ross Johnson was the perfect point man for such an ill-fated adventure. As the authors point out (13), Johnson was most creative in the area of his expense accounts. Even at Standard

Paper Abstract:
(Mari Sandoz). Critical review of work on misjudgments of U.S. military leadership in defeat at hands of Amer. Indians.

Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to examine The Battle of the Little Bighorn by Mari Sandoz, with a view toward exploring a twentieth-century interpretation of the pattern of misjudgment and what might generously be called hubris that informed the command structure of the United States Army division that encountered a massive Native American division at the Little Bighorn River in 1876. The plan of the research will be to set forth the context in which the book examines the details of the battle, and then to discuss the political social, cultural, and historiographical background and environment in which the modern understanding of the battle may be most profitably explored. Throughout, as appropriate, reference will be made to the point of view that Sandoz brings to judging events and circumstances of the incident itself and its myriad implications.

Paper Abstract:
Review of book critiquing society's emphasis on importance of women's appearance.

Paper Introduction:
Naomi Wolf's The Beauty Myth takes on the backlash against the women's movement which is embodied in the view of women as possessing worth in direct ratio to their possession of beauty. It is an urgent, angry book and the subject merits the urgency and the anger. But it is also a poorly written book in many respects and Wolf often does her subject a great disservice. Any reader who is already as angry about the subject as Wolf will simply have her/his ideas confirmed. That audience already understands Wolf's basic premises and, while there is much to be learned here even for those most interested in the subject, she is essentially preaching to an already converted audience. But there are also a great number of potential readers who do not engage in the same analytic and critical processes that Wolf and her already-converted audience use to arrive at these

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on computer revolution & ways it is changing communication, culture, privacy & copyright issues.

Paper Introduction:
In the book Being Digital, Nicholas Negroponte discusses the meaning of the digital world he sees developing as a consequence of the current and future computer revolution. The spread of the personal computer changed the way people work first and then started bringing changes in other aspects of existence, and the degree and meaning of this change is only now being assessed. Negroponte says he wants to explain the changes that have come about, those that are coming, and to give the reader a chance to understand how he or she will meld with the computer in the near future. The central theme is that the digital world is truly a revolution in communication and that it will be empowering, enabling people to communicate more clearly, directly, and purposefully than they have been able to do in the era of the printed word. The basic theme is that being digital will mean a

Paper Abstract:

Paper Introduction:
BEYOND BEEF This research paper consists of a summary and review of Jeremy Rifkin's book Beyond Beef. Rifkin traces the changing but nonetheless central role of cattle as civilization evolved. In ancient cultures, such as that of Egypt, and in the later Roman Mithran cult, the bull was revered as a god and as a symbol of fertility and martial/masculine prowess. The great nomadic tribes of Central Asia valued cattle as possessions, as well as a blood sacrifice to the gods. As the European economies developed and their populations cultivated a taste for beef, cattle became a commodity and an important source of wealth and power. First introduced into the New World by the Spanish, cattle ranching dominated the societies of many Central and South American

(John Dean). Critical review of presidential aide's memoirs about Watergate scandal.

Paper Introduction:
BLIND AMBITION Blind Ambition by John Dean was published in 1976, and it is perhaps the most reliable of the memoirs that came out of the Watergate scandal, which led to President Richard Nixon's resignation from his office in 1974. To summarize Dean's story is to move across the panorama of Watergate to examine the mindset of top government officials, who were so ambitious that they were "blind" to the laws of the Constitution. Dean opens his account when he flies to San Clemente in July, 1970 to be interviewed by Nixon and his chief of staff H.R. Haldeman as the potential successor to John Ehrlichman as counsel to the President. The story ends in December, 1974, after President Nixon had resigned in disgrace, the only president ever to have done so in

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work counteracting misinterpretations about women's character in male-written classics, Virgil's "Aeneid" & Dante's "Divine Comedy."

Paper Introduction:
Christine de Pizan's Book of the City of Ladies (1405) was written to counteract the lies and misrepresentations about women's character that the author found in literature in which all the male writers seemed to "speak from one and the same mouth" (4). She resolved, with the help and guidance of the allegorical figures of Reason, Rectitude, and Justice, to write a demonstration of the invaluable contributions of women throughout history. She intended to counteract the ridiculous claims by male writers "that the behavior of women is inclined to and full of every vice" (4). Her examples range from the mythological Amazons to the women of the Old Testament and examples from more recent history. The greatest number, however, derived from classical history and literature.

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of work on last 19 months of the author's lover's life.

Paper Introduction:
Paul Monette, in Borrowed Time: an AIDS Memoir, writes about the last nineteen months of his lover Roger Horwitz's life, after Roger was stricken with AIDS. This study will focus on the love between the two men, rather than on the terrible disease which brought their relationship to an end on this earth. The book can certainly be read as simply another work about AIDS, but when one sees first that the author is writing out of a focus on love for Roger and for their time together rather than out of a focus on the disease which tore them apart and killed Roger. Of course, it is especially difficult to focus on the love when so much that goes on between Paul and Roger has to do with the disease and its effects. This is especially true when the reader realizes that the book's beginning and end refer to the fact that the author himself is carrying the virus that killed

Paper Abstract:
1988 book on author's lover who was stricken with AIDS. Presents political & ethical arguments. Role of denial.

Paper Introduction:
In Borrowed Time: an AIDS Memoir, Paul Monette grounds his political and ethical arguments in a profoundly personal and painful story about the last year and a half of the life of his lover Roger Horwitz, after Roger is stricken with AIDS. The love of the two men for one another, and the suffering they endure together and separately, are the cornerstones of the author's efforts to expose the political and ethical realities of the wider, social, and global struggle against AIDS. Monette clearly knows that human beings as individuals and in groups are moved to political action not by a recitation of ethical theory or statistical analysis but rather by emotional involvement, by compassion and empathy. He knows, and demonstrates in this book, that the injustices involved with the AIDS crisis can be expressed best through personalizing the

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of work on billionaire Warren Buffett's investment philosophy & strategies.

Paper Introduction:
Introduction Warren Buffett is one of the wealthiest Americans today, but gained that wealth through investing, not through running a company which produces a product or service for sale to others. Buffett's company, Berkshire Hathaway, is the most expensive stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and his company's performance mirrors his own personal success. Buffett counts other wealthy Americans, including Bill Gates of Microsoft, among his close friends, but has chosen not to publish books on his investment strategy. The annual reports of Berkshire Hathaway are replete with information about the company's activities, and others have analyzed his strategy and noted his published comments from interviews. His success has generated considerable interest in his methods. In 1997, his daughter-in-law, Mary Buffett, published Buffett

Paper Abstract:
(C.M. Charles). Reviews work on eight models of discipline in elementary & secondary classrooms.

Paper Introduction:
The textbook, Building Classroom Discipline, by C. M. Charles, provides an overview and discussion of eight models of discipline most prominently favored for use in elementary and secondary classrooms today. This paper selects three of those models (Cantor, Jones, and Glasser) for a comparison and contrast of three aspects of discipline (rules, consequences, and positive reinforcement) and concludes with a summary of the positive and negative elements of these models with suggestions for selecting a personal classroom management plan. The first aspect of effective discipline is rules. All the models put forth that rules are essential to an orderly classroom and that students of all ages must know what the rules are from the first day of the class meeting. Lee Cantor's method, also called assertive discipline, simply states that the teacher

(Robert Murdick, Carl Moor & Richard Eckhouse). Chapter-by-chapter summary: business failure & success; environmental factors; management; marketing; accounting; human resources; computers, etc.

Paper Introduction:
Business Policy and Strategy: An Action Guide, by Robert Murdick, R. Carl Moor and Richard H. Eckhouse, attempts to tie together the broad policies and interrelationships that exist among the many functional areas which undergraduate students typically study. The authors intend the text to supplement the typical case book and/or computer simulations used in teaching business strategy" (p. ix). Situational analysis is presented, as is a structure for developing strategy. Practicality and real-world experience is combined with educational theory to provide as complete a picture as possible of strategy in business. The authors have divided the text into 15 chapters with no further subdivisions. It is possible, however, to group the chapters into specific areas of study. For example, the first

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on history of water & water policy in Amer. West & in its economic & social development.

Paper Introduction:
Marc Reisner's book Cadillac Desert tells the story of the American West in terms of the search for water, a search that became even more intense as communities developed with a real need for water for drinking, agriculture, and other purposes. This is a battle that continues to this day, and many political animosities have developed between different parts of the West over the issue of water, where it comes from, and who gets to use it. The author notes that much of the western region is either desert or semi-desert, with vast areas containing no towns and no human inhabitants at all as well as no forests, lakes, or rivers. Certain portions of the West, on the other hand, are highly built up, notably the Southern California region, much of which seems like one large city extending down the coast. Reisner traces the history of human settlement in the West and the human
