Scientific American - September 2008

Publisher:Scientific American, Inc
Languange: English
Number of Pages: 84
ISSN: 0036-8733

Scientific American is a popular-science magazine, published (first weekly and later monthly) since August 28, 1845, making it the oldest continuously published magazine in the United States. It brings articles about new and innovative research to the amateur and lay audience.
For working scientists, especially in high-tech fields, there are only a few crucial nonjournal periodicals to pore over faithfully, and Scientific American is one of them--its timely and technical features on everything from paleoarchaeology to neural nets set it apart from popular science magazines like Discover. Scientific American emphasizes a wide variety of emerging technologies, giving scientists a chance to keep up in an increasingly specialized professional world. Innovative and controversial developments such as gene patenting and the latest from the unified field gurus are front and center in every issue. It's not all business, though--regular features like Michael Shermer's "Skeptic" column, enticing book reviews, brain-busting puzzles, and James Burke's intellectual-historical meanderings add browsability to this enduring magazine, in business reporting the frontiers of scientific exploration for more than 150 years.

 Rich and Poor in America: A Reference Handbook (Contemporary World Issues)

Author: Geoffrey Gilbert
Format: PDF 1.2MB
Publisher: ABC-CLIO
Number Of Pages: 275
Publication Date: 2008-05-12
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1598840568
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781598840568

The growing income gap between the richest Americans and the poorest, once barely noticed, is now widely known and debated. Front-page articles in TheWall Street Journal, The New York Times, and many other mainstream news outlets have driven home the unsettling truth that the United States is growing more unequal, at least in economic terms. Some suggest that we are in a new Gilded Age, pointing to concentrations of wealth and income at the very top not seen since the 1920s or earlier. The public tends to focus less on the statistics and more on the glitz: private jets, mega-yachts, and palatial residences. Magazines and television programs are devoted to voyeuristic explorations of the lifestyles enjoyed by billionaires. And while the lifestyles of those at the opposite end of the income distribution sell very few magazines, there are indications that poverty—and the lengthening distance between society’s haves and have-nots—may be reentering the realm of political and policy debate, just in time for a presidential election.

 When Presidents Lie: A History of Official Deception and Its Consequences

Author: Eric Alterman
Publisher: Penguin (Non-Classics)
Number Of Pages: 464
Publication Date: 2005-10-25
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0143036041
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780143036043

At a time when most Americans assume that their presidents lie to them, no book could be more essential than bestselling author Eric Alterman’s devastating analysis of the costs of executive duplicity. One of the best-known left-of-center journalist-historians in America, Alterman argues that those costs are not merely moral but practical. As examples, he uses four key lies told by presidents in the postwar era. From FDR at Yalta to LBJ in Vietnam, and from JFK in Cuba to Ronald Reagan in Central America, Alterman shows how attempts to mislead the American people ended up haunting their authors and dooming the very policies they were meant to advance. Closing with an examination of the Bush deceptions in Iraq, When Presidents Lie is history at its most compelling.
