Book Description
Winner of the Eugene M. Emme Astronautical Literature Award A Bloomberg View Must-Read Book of the Year A Choice Outstanding Academic Title of the Year “A substance-rich, original on every page exploration of how the space program interacted with the environmental movement, and also with the peace and ‘Whole Earth’ movements of the 1960s.” —Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution The summer of 1969 saw astronauts land on the moon for the first time and hippie hordes descend on Woodstock. This lively and original account of the space race makes the case that the conjunction of these two era-defining events was not entirely coincidental. With its lavishly funded mandate to put a man on the moon, the Apollo mission promised to reinvigorate a country that had lost its way. But a new breed of activists denounced it as a colossal waste of resources needed to solve pressing problems at home. Neil Maher reveals that there were actually unexpected synergies between the space program and the budding environmental, feminist and civil rights movements as photos from space galvanized environmentalists, women challenged the astronauts’ boys club and NASA’s engineers helped tackle inner city housing problems. Against a backdrop of Saturn V moonshots and Neil Armstrong’s giant leap for mankind, Apollo in the Age of Aquarius brings the cultural politics of the space race back down to planet Earth. “As a child in the 1960s, I was aware of both NASA’s achievements and social unrest, but unaware of the clashes between those two historical currents. Maher [captures] the maelstrom of the 1960s and 1970s as it collided with NASA’s program for human spaceflight.” —George Zamka, Colonel USMC (Ret.) and former NASA astronaut “NASA and Woodstock may now seem polarized, but this illuminating, original chronicle...traces multiple crosscurrents between them.” —Nature

Book Description
In this book, Judy Kutulas complicates the common view that the 1970s were a time of counterrevolution against the radical activities and attitudes of the previous decade. Instead, Kutulas argues that the experiences and attitudes that were radical in the 1960s were becoming part of mainstream culture in the 1970s, as sexual freedom, gender equality, and more complex notions of identity, work, and family were normalized through popular culture--television, movies, music, political causes, and the emergence of new communities. Seemingly mundane things like watching The Mary Tyler Moore Show, listening to Carole King songs, donning Birkenstock sandals, or reading Roots were actually critical in shaping Americans' perceptions of themselves, their families, and their relation to authority. Even as these cultural shifts eventually gave way to a backlash of political and economic conservatism, Kutulas shows that what critics perceive as the narcissism of the 1970s was actually the next logical step in a longer process of assimilating 1960s values like individuality and diversity into everyday life. Exploring such issues as feminism, sexuality, and race, Kutulas demonstrates how popular culture helped many Americans make sense of key transformations in U.S. economics, society, politics, and culture in the late twentieth century.

Book Description
In 'The Growing Field, ' Denise Gibel Molini writes with deep insight, gleaned from a lifetime of personal experience, spiritual development and keen observation, about the truths of our Universe, and the way the world works. She helps us understand that it is 'set up, ' from the Soul's perspective, to bring us into the fullness of our true selves, and grow into the highest possible expression of all that we are. As seeds of the Divine, we are already love, we are irrevocably individual unique expressions of God. However, the wounds of our childhood, the confusion of the world's illusions, and the pain that we inevitably experience when we incarnate in the Earth School serves to quickly cause us to forget the Oneness. Denise understands this, and provides a compassionate voice of guidance that reminds us of the larger reality we've lost sight of. The Growing Field restores a pristine and beautiful vision of what it's all about, why we experience all of it - what we feel to be 'good' and 'bad, ' 'wonderful, ' 'horrible, ' and everything in between. She has a gift for encompassing the universe in a marble and handing you the marble so that you can truly understand, and the effect is a feeling of peace, security, connection, and understanding that reaches beyond finite circumstances into the infinity of the Soul. The impact is powerful for anyone who has ever felt the pain, fear or confusion of the human experience. The Growing Field holds universal answers for everyone, and many will find in it a teacher which seems to know exactly what they needed to hear. Denise Gibel Molini is a special soul whose writing holds a high vibration of love, and her particular wisdom will raise the consciousness of individuals to a much, much higher level when integrated. Each page of The Growing Field sheds a light on the human experience and the very significant time in our world's history which we have arrived at today. Denise teaches that there are no mistakes, but calls us all to take responsibility. It is both intimately personal and exceedingly broad, putting all fears to rest and helping each individual to immediately align with the Universal Flow by recognizing the broader, higher plan that is being executed. No matter what is your current experience, The Growing Field will remind you of who you are, where you've come from, and where we're all going. It will give you all the truth and courage you need to move forward, to heal your wounds, and to heal the world
