Paperback. Condition: Good. Investigating the essential role that the postal system plays in American democracy and how the corporate sector has attempted to destroy it."With First Class: The U.S. Postal Service, Democracy, and the Corporate Threat, Christopher Shaw makes a brilliant case for polishing the USPS up and letting it shine in the 21st century."?John Nichols, national affairs correspondent for The Nation and author of Coronavirus Criminals and Pandemic Profiteers: Accountability for Those Who Caused the Crisis"First Class is essential reading for all postal workers and for our allies who seek to defend and strengthen our public Postal Service."?Mark Dimondstein, President, American Postal Workers Union, AFL-CIOThe fight over the future of the U.S. Postal Service is on. For years, corporate interests and political ideologues have pushed to remake the USPS, turning it from a public institution into a private business?and now, with mail-in voting playing a key role in local, state, and federal elections, the attacks have escalated. Leadership at the USPS has been handed over to special interests whose plan for the future includes higher postage costs, slower delivery times, and fewer post offices, policies that will inevitably weaken this invaluable public service and source of employment.Despite the general shift to digital communication, the vast majority of the American people?and small businesses?still rely heavily on the U.S. postal system, and many are rallying to defend it. First Class brings readers to the front lines of the struggle, explaining the various forces at work for and against a strong postal system, and presenting reasonable ideas for strengthening and expanding its capacity, services, and workforce. Emphasizing the essential role the USPS has played ever since Benjamin Franklin served as our first Postmaster General, author Christopher Shaw warns of the consequences for the country?and for our democracy?if we don?t win this fight.Praise for First Class:"Piece by piece, an essential national infrastructure is being dismantled without our consent. Shaw makes an eloquent case for why the post office is worth saving and why, for the sake of American democracy, it must be saved."?Steve Hutkins, founder/editor of Save the Post Office and Professor of English at New York University"The USPS is essential for a democratic American society; thank goodness we have this new book from Christopher W. Shaw explaining why."?Danny Caine, author of Save the USPS and owner of the Raven Book Store, Lawrence, KS"Shaw's excellent analysis of the Postal Service and its vital role in American Democracy couldn't be more timely. ? First Class should serve as a clarion call for Americans to halt the dismantling and to, instead, preserve and enhance the institution that can bind the nation together."?Ruth Y. Goldway, Retired Chair and Commissioner, U.S. Postal Regulatory Commission, responsible for the Forever Stamps"In a time of community fracture and corporate predation, Shaw argues, a first-class post office of the future can bring communities together and offer exploitation-free banking and other services."?Robert Weissman, president of Public Citizen.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In the nineteen-eighties, an amateur historian of the Adirondacks recorded the fading memories of an aging woodsman and bootlegger, searching for details about the old-time fiddle player and rustic builder Fran Germaine. The woodsman's wild tales faded into dust more than once until the discovery of a diary kept by Rosalyn Orloff, the socialist writer and political theorist of the twenties and thirties, and reputed lover of the psychoanalyst Carl Jung.The Power Line travels from the villages of Lake Aurora and Saranac Lake, New York in the years following World War I, when Prohibition and tuberculosis kept them hopping, to Montreal and a thrilling escape by canoe across the St. Lawrence River in the dead of winter. It connects lives and periods often overlooked in the history of northern New York and the Canadian borderlands, shining light on the continuity of a disputed and murky past with a living and recognizable present.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Encuentros transformadores con el Verbo hecho carneUna de las tendencias arraigadas en el ser humano es la de crear dioses a su imagen y semejanza (Éxodo 32). Impacientes con el obrar de un Dios que actúa con parámetros diferentes a los nuestros, optamos por un dios que piense y actúe como nosotros lo hacemos. Jesús no se libra de esta tendencia a domesticar lo divino. El problema es que un Jesús desprovisto de los atributos que más lo distinguen se vuelve inofensivo. Carece de la capacidad para producir en nosotros la transformación radical que necesitamos. Debemos acercarnos a los evangelios dispuestos a dejar que Jesús sea el Cristo que cambió dramáticamente el curso de la historia. Si así lo hacemos, comenzaremos la apasionante aventura de caminar con el Hijo de Dios; misterioso, impredecible, profundo, reservado, pero irresistiblemente atractivo. Transforming Encounters with the Word Made FleshThis book offers a daily opportunity to enjoy Jesus as never before! Each devotional will guide you to a renewed approach to the understanding of the person of Christ that will inevitably transform your life! Discovering that Jesus is entirely different from what we had imagined is an essential step toward transcending a mere religious relationship with him.…
