From the Ground Up: Rethinking Industrial Agriculture

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Modern industrial agriculture is in crisis. In our obsession with `efficiency` and short-term profit, we are losing all real connection with the natural world. As a result, the dream of global abundance promised by the introduction of chemical fertilisers, pesticides and hybrid seeds is becoming a nightmare of health risks, degraded land and ailing communities. The way we produce our food is destructive and quite simply unsustainable. From the Ground Up: Rethinking Industrial Agriculture sets the decline of agriculture within the broader context of industrialisation as a whole, and explores some of the fundamental principles which underlie the `growth-at-any-cost` thinking of modern society. At the same time, it documents the growing public distrust of conventional agricultural practices, and highlights some of the most promising alternatives leading to more sane, environmentally healthy ways of producing food. This book is a valuable reference for those… [detailed...]

A new mode of instant communication was set into motion. The Internet was jammed with e-mails containing everything from pictures of the disaster to prayers from well-wishers. Many commentaries surfaced on how we should face this disaster. Patriotism was reborn in the United States. People with little or no previous knowledge of computers soon began learning to navigate the Internet and send e-mail. Most of the first messages exuded anger and sadness, followed by messages of patriotic and religious content. Later, after the trauma and disbelief had subsided, the Internet user?s mood changedto more revitalizing and up-lifting messages. Soon jokes, political pundits and personal commentaries seemed to dominate the e-mail messages. The healing had begun. [detailed...]

The goal of humanity is to learn from the innovations of the past in order to create a better future for all, not the elite, the privileged, or even the `chosen` ones, whoever they may be. The lessons of history have already been written. We are taking life?s multiple-choice final exam.

From the Lower East Side to Hollywood: Jews in American Popular Culture

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description A lively, extensively illustrated history of the widespread influence of Jews on American popular culture through the twentieth century. The contribution by Jews to American popular culture is widely acknowledged yet scarcely documented. This is the first comprehensive investigation of the formative Jewish influence upon the rise and development of American popular culture, drawing upon extensive oral histories with several generations of Jewish artists, little-utilized Yiddishscholarship, and the author`s own connections with today`s comic-strip artists. Buhle shows how the rich legacy of Yiddish prepared would-be artists to absorb the cultures of their surrounding environments, seeing the world through the eyes of others, and producing the talent required for theater, films, television, popular music and comics. Buhle suggests that `premodern` and `postmodern` are arbitrary designations here, because the self-reflective content has always radiated an… [detailed...]
