The 50% American
President Bush's attempts to liberalize immigration laws in the United States have raised serious questions about our national identity. Just what does it mean to be an American? What exactly holds us together as a people? What, if anything, can be done to strengthen the national attachments of millions of new immigrants who arrive on our shores every year--especially in an age of terrorism? Political psychologist Stanley Renshon attempts to answer these questions by looking at recent immigration trends and how federal, state, and local governments have dealt with volatile issues such as language requirements, voting rights, and schooling. Concerned that America is not doing enough to help i...
The American College and the Culture of Aspiration, 1915–1940
Is higher education a right or a privilege? Who should go to college? What should they study there? These questions were hotly debated between the world wars, when an unprecedented boom in college enrollments forced Americans to struggle between their belief in the importance of educational opportunity and their desire to preserve the existing social structure. In The American College and the Culture of Aspiration, 1915–1940, David O. Levine offers the first in-depth history of higher education during this era, a period when colleges and universities became arbiters of social and economic mobility and a hierarchy of schools evolved to meet growing demands for occupational training and socialization.
Confidence is a Choice
Confidence is a choice. Scientifically, we can learn how. We've been misled, often lied to. Confidence isn't inherited or vicariously inspired. You don't just get it by working hard or faking it 'til you make it. It's not a result. It's a requirement. Sadly, it takes most people 60+ years to figure it all out and reach their confident best. Now anyone can learn to give and get real confidence. Endorsed by top academic, business, and non-profit leaders, Confidence is a Choice will fundamentally change the way you act, react, and interact. CLARIFY what confidence is (& is not), how it works in our brains & impacts behavior. CALIBRATE your confidence to understand what is helping or hurting it. CONTROL common villains & kryptonite that constantly steal confidence. COMMUNICATE confidence to have true executive presence & leadership influence. COACH yourself & help other people using practical techniques & tools.

In and Out of Church
Why are so many Americans leaving church? Half no longer belong to a congregation. A quarter now say they are unchurched, up from one in six a decade ago and one in twelve a generation ago, led by more than a third of young adults. Where have they gone, and what are they doing instead? What moves them? What should we make of it?

Reconsidering American Civil-Military Relations

Much of the canonical literature on civil-military relations was either written during or references the Cold War, while other major research focuses on the post-Cold War era, or the first decade of the twenty-first century. A great deal has changed since then. This book considers the implications for civil-military relations of many of these changes. Specifically, it focuses on factors such as breakdowns in democratic and civil-military norms and conventions; intensifying partisanship and deepening political divisions in American society; as well as new technology and the evolving character of armed conflict.
