Books for Thought....

I'm at the library and I've been looking up words in the dictionary (i.e. Individual) and I will post what I've done on here eventually. In the meantime, I am going to post books that I figure will do some good for those who are interested in greasing the wheels and flexing a muscle a bit. Exercise: think.

Books for Thought:

*1. When Sorry Isn't Enough: The Controversy Over Apologies and Reparations for Human Injustice. Edited by Roy L. Brooks, This anthology brings together essays, written by both internationally renowned and emerging scholars, and public documents concerning claims from around the world that seek redress for human injustice."

*2. The Power Elite... "first published in 1956,  stands as a contemporary classic of social science and social criticism." Re: the organization of power in the United States, re: the military, corporate, and political elite. *The Power Elite can be read as an accurate account of what was taking place in America at the time it was written, its underlying question of whether America is as democratic in practice as it is in theory is every bit as significant to the culture of today." "The Power Elite stimulates us to think about the kind of society we have and the kind of society we might want."

3. The Official Guide to American Attitudes "Who Thinks What About the Issues that Shape Our Lives,"  by Susan Mitchell
