Bringing Montessori to America: S. S. McClure, Maria Montessori, and the Campaign to Publicize Montessori Education , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 788min

2016 Choice Outstanding Academic Title!Bringing Montessori to America traces in engrossing detail one of the most fascinating partnerships in the history of American education - that between Maria Montessori and S. S. McClure, from their first meeting in 1910 until their final acrimonious dispute in 1915.Born on the Adriatic, Montessori first entered the world stage in 1906 as the innovator of a revolutionary teaching method that creates an environment where children learn at their own pace and initiate skills like reading and writing in a spontaneous way.McClure was an Irish-born media baron of America’s Gilded Age, best known as the founder and publisher of McClure’s Magazine. After meeting in 1910, McClure and Montessori embarked on a five-year collaboration to introduce Montessori’s innovative teaching style in the United States.The American entrepreneurial spirit, along with a desire to disseminate the Montessori method quickly, led to major conflicts between the Italian educator and American business people, particularly McClure. Gutek and Gutek describe the fascinating story of this first wave of Montessori education in the United States, which did not sustain itself during Montessori’s lifetime. It would not be until the 1950s that Montessori education was revived with the successful establishment of Montessori academies throughout the United States.The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.“A fascinating book...reads like a novel.” (Vitae Scholasticae)“This engaging book will appeal to a wide range of readers.” (Martha May Tevis, University of Texas-Pan American)“This study should be a staple and case study for communications departments across the United States.” (Karen L.

Police Brutality and Excesssive Use of Force: A Clear Threat to the Human Rights of African Americans , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 16min

People of color face a higher likelihood of being killed by police than do white men and women; that risk peaks in young adulthood, and men of color face a nontrivial lifetime risk of being killed by police.Denial and avoidance, then, appear to be the main techniques for dealing with one of the most pervasive and crucial problems of US society.In the wake of high-profile police killings in the past years, media outlets have begun to collate information in order to paint a more complete picture of police violence in the United States.The United States has a duty to take urgent action to prevent and remedy the excessive use of force by police against Black Americans. Despite the growing awareness of police brutality, police officers found guilty are hardly held accountable for their actions; they are often acquitted or, if convicted, receive much lighter sentences than are typical for civilians convicted of similar crimes.Lack of accountability lies at the heart of a cycle of police violence and discrimination against Black Americans. ungekürzt.

Living with History / Making Social Change , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 519min

This stimulating collection of essays in an autobiographical framework encompasses Gerda Lerner's theoretical writing and her organizational work in transforming the history profession and in establishing Women's History as a mainstream field. Six of the 12 essays are new, written especially for this volume; the others have previously appeared in small journals or were originally presented as talks, and have been revised for this book. Several essays discuss feminist teaching and the problems of interpretation of autobiography and memoir for the reader and the historian. Lerner's reflections on feminism as a worldview, on the meaning of history writing, and on problems of aging lend this book unusual range and depth. Together, the essays illuminate how thought and action connected in Lerner's life, how the life she led before she became an academic affected the questions she addressed as a historian, and how the social and political struggles in which she engaged informed her thinking. Written in lucid, accessable prose, the essays will appeal to the general reader as well as to students at all levels. Living with History / Making Social Change offers rare insight into the life work of one of the leading historians of the United States.The book is published by The University of North Carolina Press. ungekürzt.
