Book Description

The Roaring Twenties in New York was a time of exuberant ambition, free-flowing optimism, an explosion of artistic expression in the age of Prohibition. New York was the city that embodied the spirit and strength of a newly powerful America.

In 1924, in the vibrant heart of Manhattan, a fierce rivalry was born. Two architects, William Van Alen and Craig Severance (former friends and successful partners, but now bitter adversaries), set out to imprint their individual marks on the greatest canvas in the world--the rapidly evolving skyline of New York City. Each man desired to build the city’s tallest building, or ‘skyscraper.’ Each would stop at nothing to outdo his rival.

Van Alen was a creative genius who envisioned a bold, contemporary building that would move beyond the tired architecture of the previous century. By a stroke of good fortune he found a larger-than-life patron in automobile magnate Walter Chrysler, and they set out to build the legendary Chrysler building. Severance, by comparison, was a brilliant businessman, and he tapped his circle of downtown, old-money investors to begin construction on the Manhattan Company Building at 40 Wall Street.

From ground-breaking to bricklaying, Van Alen and Severance fought a cunning duel of wills. Each man was forced to revamp his architectural design in an attempt to push higher, to overcome his rival in mid-construction, as the structures rose, floor by floor, in record time. Yet just as the battle was underway, a third party entered the arena and announced plans to build an even larger building. This project would be overseen by one of Chrysler’s principal rivals--a representative of the General Motors group--and the building ultimately became known as The Empire State Building.
Infused with narrative thrills and perfectly rendered historical and engineering detail, Higher brings to life a sensational episode in American history. Author Neal Bascomb interweaves characters such as Al Smith and Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt, leading up to an astonishing climax that illustrates one of the most ingenious (and secret) architectural achievements of all time.

Engaging, but..........2007-08-10

I certainly enjoyed _Higher_, but it could have been a better book. Bascomb needs an editor: usages are awkward, some of the passages read as though they were padding added to a slimmer first version, and when the author steps back to sketch the bigger picture the prose, all too often, turns purple. Not altogether his fault: too many authors today try to write a movie rather than a book. Oddly, for a book about architecture and the construction of specific buildings, there are surprisingly few photos -- not that I expected or wanted a coffee table book, but the very visual story here could have been better illustrated. Those of us who like this sort of book, and I do, despite the quibbling and caviling above, should also read Daniel Okrent's _Great Fortune: The Epic of Rockefeller Center_, which is every bit as interesting and a better-written book, all in all.

Great Book about Sykscrapers and NYC in the 1920's........2006-10-06

The 1920's was all about reaching new heights in America - the roaring 20's emphasized a fast-paced lifestyle where there were no limits. It was this "anything goes" attitude that led to the construction of skyscrapers in New York City that were just as much a symbol of the times as they were practical business investments. In this book that chronicles the race to be the tallest between 3 New York landmarks - the Chrysler Building, 40 Wall Street, and The Empire State Building - egos collide, markets tumble, and relationship are broken. The author weaves a very readable tale that focuses on both the financial and architectural icons who led to the construction of these buildings. If bricks and mortar also interest you, then this will do the trick as well. Throughout the book you are taken to the construction sites and learn what its like to catch a burning hot rivet a quarter mile up in the air, all while balancing on a single beam and bracing against high winds and frigid temperatures. Overall, a very good book that manages to tell the "story" of these now prominent buildings. I would give it 4.5 stars if I could.

A steal at $14.95!.......2006-07-29

This book, not only glorifies the American spirit, but serves as an excellent reference for what New York was like in the late 1920's. Through architectually acurrate, this book focuses on more that any review can project. This is the best history book I've read since the Guardians by Geoff Kabaservice.

A great story.......2006-01-09

`Higher' is the story about the race for the `highest building in the world', set in New York City in the late 1920's and early 1930's. It portrays the race between the Chrysler Building and the Bank of Manhattan Trust Building (aka 40 Wall Street, current The Trump Building), and when that is settled and done the Empire State Building moves in to beat them all. The book focuses on the architects and their commissioners, who are often self made man not shy of showing their success (which is in fact an American success) powered by the economic boom at the time. The story shows that these kind of skyscrapers really are the product of ego driven characters and economic acceleration. But there really isn't anything wrong with that for as such they are just a symbol of achievement over a rational product of urbanism.

The book is full of quotes and it links the relations between the actors which give the book a lively edge, yet it reads as easily as a novel. There plenty of `gee, I didn't know that' facts and details in it, all adding up to the excitement of the story (for example, the famous Chrysler Building spire was topped out one day before the infamous Wall Street crash). By focussing on a few main characters and the topic of height, the book doesn't dwell in all directions which it could have done so easily for it really is a fascinating story to tell. I wouldn't be surprised if this story will be made into a movie or tv series one day for this story and the way it's being told really deserves that.

Great fun for New Yorkophiles.......2005-11-15

Listened to this one on the daily commute. Not a deep piece of scholarship, but a terrific -- and vividly told -- popular history. Well done!

I got this book for Christmas and I thought it would be step by step but it isnt that much, I would definetly recomend it for someone older.

Good basics.......1999-12-09

This primer is a nice introduction to some of the more basic calligraphy and lettering techniques. Hufton's emphasis is on good form, good practice techniques and understanding the underlying basics of letterforms, rather than just focusing on copying the strokes right. At the same time, the numerous illustrations and diagrams make it easy to move through. The illustrations of incorrect letters are especially helpful. The wide format of the book is nice as it stays open fairly easily (it would have been even better if it had been spiral bound.)

Her alphabets tend to be on the looser, more casual side, almost humorous. Many of them reminded me of lettering for signage. But taking cues from her helped me to make my own style a little less uptight.

Book Description

Step-by-step photographs and easy-to-follow instructions show how to make an alien door plaque, a hobby box, a swirling bookmark, balloon party invitations, and more. This inspiring and colorful book contains eight original projects and lots of other great lettering ideas.

Book Description

The relationship between development and democracy, one of the most studied themes in the social sciences, is also one of the most elusive and most vexing. Central to this study are two questions: Is liberal democracy a prerequisite for economic development? Or is economic development a prerequisite for liberal democracy?

Political scientists and economists have offered a variety of answers to these questions, emphasizing such issues as institutionalization, government policy, political parties, and economic development strategies. Too often, though, political scientists analyze development with a limited understanding of economics, while economists advocate particular economic policies with no regard for the politics of implementing them. As the real world shows, and as this book demonstrates, economics and politics are intimately connected and must be understood in relation to one another.

Development and Democracy , offering a mix of theoretical and empirical essays, brings together scholars from a variety of disciplines and area specializations (Latin America, South Asia, North Africa, China, Russia). The editors provide a broad general introduction to the topic. Essays in the first two sections offer overviews of key issues and assumptions in the field, and look particularly at the roles of institutions and civic participation in economic development. Essays in the final two sections examine challenges to achieving stable democracies and economies (such as ethnonationalism and violence), and use case studies to situate these themes in a global context.

Outdated and little valuation theory.......2002-12-05

This book only contains the present value calculations for the various items on a balance sheet. It is an introductory book on what happens to the present value if the market rate changes by 200 basis points. Unfortunately the book does not touch on bank valuation, but is a primer on market valuation used in interest rate risk analysis.

Book Description

There has been a tendency amongst feminists to see domestic work as the great leveller, a common burden imposed on all women equally by patriarchy. This unique study of migrant domestic workers in the North uncovers some uncomfortable facts about the race and class aspects of domestic oppression. Based on original research, it looks at the racialisation of paid domestic labour in the North - a phenomenon which challenges feminsim and political theory at a fundamental level.

The book opens with an exploration of the public/private divide and an overview of the debates on women and power. The author goes on to provide a map of employment patterns of migrant women in domestic work in the North; she describes the work they perform, their living and working conditions and their employment relations. A chapter on the US explores the connections between slavery and contemporary domestic service while a section on commodification examines the extent to which migrant domestic workers are not selling their labour but their whole personhood. The book also looks at the role of the Other in managing dirt, death and pollution and the effects of the feminisation of the labour market - as middle class white women have greater presence in the public sphere, they are more likely to push responsibility for domestic work onto other women.

In its depiction of the treatment of women from the South by women in the North, the book asks some difficult questions about the common bond of womanhood. Packed with information on the numbers of migrant women working as domestics, the racism, immigration or employment legislation that constrains their lives, and testimonies from the workers themselves, this is the most comprehensive study of migrant domestic workers available.

Should be Reprinted.......2004-09-30

It is a shame that this book is out of print. We found it when our baby was first diagnosed inutero with spina bifida. This book gives a realistic impression of what to expect during the first years while still offering hope and encouragement. We have bought many used copies to educate our friends and family on the challenges we face. An easy read that offers hope while still being realistic.

Excellent Story-Well Worth Reading It!.......2004-04-03

The author Gilbert M. Gaul writes the story of his son who had been born with spina bifida.

From birth Cary Gaul was rushed to a children's hospital where he was operated on several times for problems related to spina bifida. Doctors believed he would not walk at all, but as time went along, Cary proved them all wrong. With the help of braces and walkers, along with a strong will, he was able to gradually take more steps.

His dad also wrote of learning disabilites of these children, but Cary, though slow to learn in some ways, overcame many obstacles, and progressed more rapidly with the loving help of his parents and teachers.

Any parent with a disabled child would enjoy this book very much. It offers hope and envouragement.

A "different" Spina Bifida book.......2000-04-02

This book was one of the first books that we found after finding out that our son would be born with Spina Bifida. Looking back, I am so thankful we found it when we did. It really put the whole thing into perspective and gave us hope in our most desperate hour.

Customer Reviews:

Thirsty.......2006-01-01

It is a fun read, but was a let-down as it was not as broad as I would have liked. Chronologically, it jumps from Scipio Africanus (c. 200 BC) to Ghenghis Khan (c. 1200 AD) with nothing in between. That is almost a millenium-and-a-half of commanders and battles! How can one ignore Belisarius or Charles Martel?

Great Commanders is a Great Book.......2003-08-01

Great Commanders and thier battles is a nice book, especially for the price. It covers 20 great historical military commanders and offers a great deal of info and beautiful llustrations. The book is a steal for the price and is well made. The visual aids such as maps, graphs and illustrations portray battles and information throughout the book and make the information much easier to understand. This also makes the book much more enjoyable while adding character and distinction to each commander and the battles they are famous for.

The book offers a lot of information on the commanders and a lot of extra info about thier tactics and the events of thier best known battles.For each commander there is a timeline of the events of thier lives/carears, some decent and compelling biographical information, details on thier tactics, forces and champagnes as well as the impact the commander had in his world and thier place in history. Alexander's section for example spans 12 pages and does a great job illustrating his revolutionary tactics.

Some questions remain however. I wish they would have covered more than one battle per commander, and some of the information may be a bit subjective, but you really cant escape that in a book like this. I do however wonder about the choice of commanders covered. While you will find many of the most memorable names in military history, from a variety of time periods (Napoleon, Alexander the Great, Ghengis Khan, Scipio Africanus, Irwin Rommel, Robert E. Lee, Fredrick The Great, Wellington, and even Douglas Maccarthur) some exceptions are curious - for example, some of those not covered that you would think would be present include - William the conquerer, Hannibal, Patton, Zhukov, Julius Caesar, Atilla the Hun and Montgomery just to name a few.

All in all this is still a great book for the price and makes a great addition to any classroom library or any history buff's collection.

Great Commanders very well done.......2000-09-20

This is an informative book that can be read easily by an unschooled armchair general. It uses graphics of the battle scenes of Alexander, Scipio, Gustavus, Marlborough, Wellington, Rommel, MacAurthur, Napoleon, Slim, Henry V, Genghis Khan, Allenby, Washington, Lee, and others. It is a MUST have, and the introduction is a well done piece by General Sir John Hackett, an experienced soldier of the British Army, who has his own book own World War III. A warning though, it is exceedingly British. It is bias towards Britain in every battle involving the English, but this aspect is at worst evaluation a bit funny.

Book Description

From Slumber to Awakening argues that when investigating the cultural and historical predicament of segments of any society a close examination of the literal expression of the people is necessary to understand their human condition better. To accomplish this, the individual psyches of authors and poets must be delved into, and in this case was accessed through personal interviews. This study approaches the unique social position of the Arab Israelis through an exploration of culture and history. The examination of the literature itself begins with Israeli literature from the broad perspectives of both the prose and poetry forms and then moving into the literature and literati themselves one by one exploring the lives of the writers while superimposing their human experiences with the expressions and stories of their creative works. This examination, along with the interviews, defines the Arab Israeli minority as a group while also comparing them to Jewish Israeli writers who are close to the Arab Israeli situation.
