A Sharp Seasoning of Truth

Book Description
Précis for A Sharp Seasoning of Truth Though myriad books have appeared in recent years centering on America’s foreign and domestic policies, they have not addressed the overall state of the Union. None of those books has made an analysis sufficiently comprehensive to light up the dark corners of those matters in national affairs vital to the general popular interest and which must be addressed for the United States to remain truly united and continue to prosper. Those books are too compartmentalized. Focused mainly on one subject of vital interest and importance, they fail to reveal the entire canvas, with all its important aspects and, not least, co-relationships. The citizens of this country are entitled to and must have a comprehensive evaluation of the true status quo if this nation is to survive. The intention of this book therefore, is to illuminate the entire stage of national socio-political activity, not least its direction.

Book Description
Upon his retirement from active service as a Justice of the Supreme Court of Virginia in 2011, Justice Koontz had completed more than four decades of service to citizens of the Commonwealth of Virginia. In order to recognize that service and help preserve Justice Koontz's legacy as one of the outstanding jurists in Virginia and the United States, the Salem/Roanoke County Bar Association instituted this project to collect all of Justice Koontz's published opinions, both from his tenure as a Justice of the Supreme Court and as an inaugural member of the Court of Appeals of Virginia. The second volume to be produced by the Opinions Project includes opinions, concurrences and dissents authored by Justice Koontz during the majority of his second four-year term as Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals. This volume includes the opinions addressing the contempt citations brought against the United Mine Workers during the 1989-1990 Pittston Coal Strike.

Slaying Goliath
Author: Diane RavitchPublisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0525655379
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Diane Ravitch writes of those who have privatized the schools, the Disrupters, who believe America's schools should be run like businesses, with teachers incentivized with threats and bonuses, and schools that need to enter into the age of the gig economy in which children are treated like customers or products. She writes of the Koch brothers, the DeVos family, the Waltons (Walmart), Eli Broad, Bill Gates, Michael Bloomberg, Mark Zuckerberg, and many more, on the right and the left, as well as corporations, foundations, etc., intent on promoting the privatization of one of our most valued public institutions. Ravitch lays out, in extensive detail, the facts showing that the ideas put forth by school privateers have failed; that their promises of higher test scores have not come to pass; that the "great hope" of Common Core has been a dud. Arrayed against these forces, Ravitch writes of the volunteer army--"the Resisters"--that has sprung up from Seattle, Texas, and Colorado, to Detroit, New Orleans, and Buffalo, New York--parents, teachers, grandparents, students, bloggers, religious leaders, brave individuals, who, spurred on by conviction, courage, determination, and the power of ideas and passion, are fighting back to successfully keep alive their public schools.
