Dust jacket hand covered in protective archival grade Mylar for many worry free years of reading/collecting!</p><p>AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER</p><p>A memoir of coming of age in a conservative Southern family in postwar America.</p><p>To grow up in the 1950s was to enter a world of polarized national alliances nuclear threat and destabilized social hierarchies. Two world wars and the depression that connected them had unleashed a torrent of expectations and dissatisfactions―not only in global affairs but in American society and Americans' lives.</p><p>A privileged white girl in conservative segregated Virginia was expected to adopt a willful blindness to the inequities of race and the constraints of gender. For Drew Gilpin the acceptance of both female subordination and racial hierarchy proved intolerable and galvanizing. Urged to become "well adjusted" and to fill the role of a poised young lady that her upbringing imposed she found resistance was necessary for her survival. During the 1960s through her love of learning and her active engagement in the civil rights student and antiwar movements Drew forged a path of her own―one that would eventually lead her to become a historian of the very conflicts that were instrumental in shaping the world she grew up in.</p><p>Culminating in the upheavals of 1968 Necessary Trouble captures a time of rapid change and fierce reaction in one young woman's life tracing the transformations and aftershocks that we continue to grapple with today.</p> Farrar, Straus and Giroux hardcover

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - BRAND NEW FLAWLESS COPY NEVER OPENED - 304 pages -- DESCRIPTION: Motivated by a suspicion that schools fail to teach what "matters" Simon director of research at the Coalition of Essential Schools in California spent months observing literature history and biology classes at a public a Catholic and a Jewish high school. What "matters" to Simon is the integration of moral and existential inquiry into the classroom; she argues that not only are moral and existential questions at the heart of the major disciplines they are also extremely compelling to students. But too much of what goes on in schools she contends is "the forming of uninformed opinions" and "decontextualized fact acquisition." Although she shows how even good teachers sometimes deflect or shut down important discussions Simon places the blame squarely on the education system that works "against teachers being able to incorporate discussions of substantive issues into their classrooms." As in many recent books the villain is the standardized test and the stakes for both students and teachers attached to it. Simon writes fluently integrating transcripts of classroom discussions smoothly into her narrative and engagingly conveying her idealist's passion for reform. To reconsider education's entire enterprise is a very tall order however and Simon acknowledges the enormous obstacles her project faces. Readers will agree that students shouldn't continue to feel disengaged in school because they're denied the chance to ask and answer essential questions but they may be skeptical of Simon's starry-eyed recipe for change. - Publishers Weekly -- with a bonus offer-- .

Vous en faites pas je n’en parlerai à personne. J’ai tourné mon premier film X à l’âge de vingt ans même si à l’époque j’avais menti devant la caméra et prétendu en avoir dix-huit. Mais contrairement à bon nombre de filles avec lesquelles j’ai bossé j’ai été assez maligne pour raccrocher. Le problème c’est qu’à l’instar d’un catcheur ou d’un voleur de bijoux je me suis laissé tenter par un retour. Je n’avais aucune idée que j’allais finir coincée dans un coffre de bagnole.</p> GALLMEISTER hardcover
