Light toning, else content appears as new, unread, unopened and unblemished with fine wraps displaying no significant surface/edge wear, as shown. The Naked Society, just like The Privacy Invaders which will come out two weeks later, is concerned with all the peeping tomfoolery which is going on today and the various ways in which we are exposed and thereby victimized. There is no question, in making a choice between the two books, that Vance Packard has not only otten there first but with the most. His coverage is broader based; he manages just the right note of indignation in the interests of informing in an area which as had limited spadework elsewhere (i.e. Martin Gross- The Brain Watchers, one phase). And while Packard has never been much more than a lick and a promise sociologist, he does take a few potshots at what makes all this possible (closeness of Giving; affluence; etc.). The book is primarily a rundown on the degrading procedures to which the job candidate is… Read More

Published accounts of the valuation of oil properties have been concerned chiefly with the important element of the oil and gas contents of land. Less attention has been given to those other influences which affect the value of the oil and gas, to the various valuation methods appropriate to different circumstances, and to the forms in which oil properties occur. The aim of this book is to help close that gap with a review of the meaning and scope of valuation in the oil business, the factors which enter a valuation, and the methods of applying these. Chapters: The scope of valuation; Properties; Unproved lands; Oil and gas reserves; Elements in a valuation; Valuation methods; The examination and report.

In a series of sting operations he reveals how far the Labour government was prepared to go in its attempts to gain the support of big business, and his report on the American presidental election makes it clear that the wrong man is in the White House.

Twenty years have passed since Courtine and Austin last met, and the invitation to Austin's home in the cathedral close of Thurchester is a welcome one.

Sophie was at the end of her wits --- Where on Earth had it all begun? Probably in 1903 with that fatal journey of her father's to Turkey when he had bought himself a wife straight out of a harem. Perhaps a really good actress, having the ability to portray deep emotion, also feel it and describe it better than some of the best writers, but then, Lilli Palmer is a multi-talented woman who had already written several best sellers before this one, which is unforgettable as much for its remarkable story and plot as the passionate love that is the real character.

Jimmie Killingsworth and Jacqueline S. Palmer have a twofold purpose: to analyze the patterns of rhetoric used in written discourse about environmental politics and to make a practical contribution to the art of rhetorical criticism through the study of rhetoric in use.The language, professional objectivity, and research programs of scientists insulate these best-informed citizens in enclaves of specialization, limiting access to crucial information and hindering effective reformative action. Science, the authors stress, is not merely a database to rely upon but a view of the world that must be broadened in order to affect social morality. Science-based activism must arise to ensure the care and future of the environment.Killingsworth and Palmer argue that for grassroots activism to be tied to this globally conscious philosophy, a rhetoric of sustainability must be… Read More

Temple Presentation Plate, FLEP, Residual glue from pocket removal, BLEP, else content appears as new, unread and unblemished in fine black boards in Fine DJ & Vinyl Cover displaying no significant surface/edge wear, as shown. Kirkus Review: Though it is framed narratively, and semi-fictionalized--a sometimes-tangled knot of individual stories--Panish's interview-backed examination of the lives of Soviet Jewish immigrants from first decision to leave through attempts at adjustment, is abrim with less than obvious sociological aspects. Apart from the amazing story of one young man trained in underground Hasidic yeshivas in Russia in the Sixties--about which little has previously been written--the primary focus is on two young families, the Gorelskys of Odessa and the Levins of Leningrad, who face not only the official pariah-hood of Jews turning their back on Soviet society, but also the extraordinary, often desperate opposition engendered within affected families.

Many of my books are from the 19th Century. Books were not written in at that time, instead an index card with info. Am enclosing the one found in this book for you. Enjoy. PREFACE. In writing this work I have endeavored to provide a text-book suited to more advanced pupils. My idea of such a work was, that it should present the essential facts of history in due order, and in conformity to the best and latest researches; that it should point out clearly the connection of events and of successive eras with one another; that through the interest awakened by the natural, unforced view gained of this unity of history, and by such illustrative incidents as the brevity of the narrative would allow to be wrought into it, the dryness of a mere summary should be, as far as possible, relieved;… Read More
