Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Cinema produces an imaginary space where audiences can make themselves visible in public, share ideas and criticisms, and establish their identity as part of a transitory but nonetheless satisfying cultural body. Public Secrets, Public Spaces explores the possibility of symbolic public space in the context of Chinese cinema. Focusing especially on women, children, and the dispossessed, Stephanie Donald looks at the ways public space is constructed and occupied, both in the Chinese cultural sphere and in the world of international audiences. Drawing on the debate over civil society, the author argues that traditional concepts of public sphere and civil society are unlikely to apply to contemporary China, yet there may be common elements that do move across and between cultural and political boundaries. Civility is one such element, built up of culturally specific virtues and relationships that form the public secrets of social survival. Public secrets are the unstated common-sense knowledges of everyday life, extraordinary to those who are not initiated into the routines of a particular cultural place and space. In traditional societies public secrets are organized through observable ritual, while in modern societies they are embedded in the cultural discourse of the routine and the everyday. As we see in this provocative book, film offers a rich medium for unearthing these secrets. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This important study compares and evaluates the nature of church-state relations in the United States, the Netherlands, Australia, Germany, and England. The authors conclude that the American conception of church-state separation, with its traditional emphasis on avoiding government establishment of religion, actually discriminates against religious groups by denying religious organizations, particularly schools, access to government services provided to other organizations. The authors persuasively argue that the U.S. can learn a great deal from these other nations in promoting religious neutrality and the free exercise of religion. A book in the series Religious Forces in the Modern Political World, edited by Allen D. Hertzke. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Fair. Susan Gluck Mezey's newest book, Gay Families and the Courts, is a compelling examination of the role of the state and federal courts in furthering the goals of the gay and lesbian community. Unlike Mezey's earlier book, Queers in Court, this book evaluates the extent to which litigation is effective in advancing equal rights for gay families_families in which at least one member is gay_as they seek to expand their opportunities and battle discrimination. Mezey shows how the courts address gay and lesbian rights and sexual orientation in schools and social organizations such as the Boy Scouts along with family-oriented problems such as marriage and parenthood. In doing so, Mezey emphasizes the complexity of the issues involved in the cases, and assesses the degree to which the outcome of the litigation is explained by the type of case, the type of court, and the judge's perception of his or her role as a policymaker. It is a valuable reference for scholars interested in judicial, legislative, and executive policymaking at the federal and state level as well as anyone interested in LGBT politics. A readable copy of the book which may include some defects such as highlighting and notes. Cover and pages may be creased and show discolouration.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Maxims Minimus is the sedimentation of over forty years of experience in teaching, writing, and treating patients. As many other poets, T. Byram Karasu dares to be just so clear, and no clearer. Thus, Dr. Karasu's Maxims is well suited for this age of Twitter and text messages. He says, Anything that cannot be said in 140 characters (or in 140 seconds) is not particularly worth saying. This book is Dr. Karasu's reflections about loving, working, living, dying, and everything else-his philosophy of life expressed in microstyle. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Polsby and Wildavsky's classic text argues that the institutional rules of the presidential nomination and election processes, in combination with the behavior of the mass electorate, structure the strategic choices faced by politicians in powerful and foreseeable ways. We can make sense of the decisions made by differently situated political actors-incumbents, challengers, Democrats, Republicans, consultants, party official, activists, delegates, journalists, and voters-by understanding the ways in which their world is organized by incentives, regulations, events, resources, customs, and opportunities. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Feith, David. Teaching America: the case for civic education. Lanham, Md.: Rowman & Littlefield, 2011, xxii, 235pp., PAPERBACK, very good. Teaching America responds to a crisis in citizenship. To remain America, our country has to give its kids a civic identity, an understanding of our constitutional system, and some appreciation of the amazing achievements of American self-government. But we are failing to do so--a failure that weakens our common culture, disenfranchises would-be voters, and helps poison political discourse. That's why this book gathers more than twenty leading thinkers to diagnose our civic illiteracy problem, explain its terribly high stakes--and lay out a powerful agenda for reform. - CONTENTS: Civic education, devalued / Frederick M. Hess -- Keeping the Republic / David Feith -- The democratic purpose of education : from the founders to Horace Man to today / Justice Sandra Day O'Connor -- My immigrant tale : assimilation and the road to success / Juan Williams -- The right to know your rights : civic literacy, the Miranda warnings, and me / Alan M. Dershowitz -- Safeguarding American exceptionalism : an uninformed citizenry risks ceding excessive power to government / Senator Jon Kyl -- Civic nation : my White House mission after September 11 / John M. Bridgeland -- Civic literacy and No child left behind : a lesson in the limits of government power / Eugene Hickok -- A failure of leadership : the duty of politicians and universities to salvage citizenship / Senator Bob Graham, with Chris Hand -- Forgetting Martin Luther King's dream : how politics threatens American's Civil Rights memory / Secretary Rod Paige -- Revolutionary ignorance : what do Americans know about the original tea party? / Bruce Cole -- Core curriculum : how to tackle general illiteracy and civic illiteracy at the same time / Andrew J. Rotherham -- Fighting civic malpractice : how a Harlem charter school closes the achievement gap / Seth Andrew -- The KIPP approach : be the change you wish to see in the world / Mike Feinberg -- The wisdom of twenty thousand teachers : strengthen state requirements, stop marginalizing the founders / Jason Ross -- Teaching political sophistication : on self-interest and the common good / Charles N. Quigley and Charles F. Bahmueller -- Good history and good citizens : Howard Zinn, Woodrow Wilson, and the historian's purpose / Michael Kazin -- Talk is cheap : the university and the national project : a history / John R. Thelin -- Don't believe the hype : young voters are still disengaged, and universities have few incentives to fix it / Mark Bauerlein -- Donor intent : strategic philanthropy in higher education / Admiral Mike Ratliff -- After the digital explosion : education and civil liberties in the Internet Age / Harry Lewis -- How school choice enhances civic health : vouchers and informed politics / Jay P. Lefkowitz -- Education versus indoctrination : what separates sound policy from state overreach? / Glenn Harlan Reynolds -- Letter to President Obama : a policy approach for the federal government / Peter Levine.
