Accidental
'Who said science was dry? Certainly not Tim James' New York Post 'James writes with infectious enthusiasm and optimism' Kirkus Reviews 'A science teacher by profession, Mr. James knows how to get his audience's attention' Wall Street Journal 'Humorous, yet deep' Professor Charles Antoine A rip-roaring adventure through science gone wrong, and accidentally changing humanity (mostly) for the better.

Erfreuten sich bisher vorwiegend die Parks von Schloss- und Villenanlagen bzw. die ...
Canarsie
What accounts for the precarious state of liberalism in recent decades? Jonathan Rieder explores this question in his powerful study of the Jews and Italians of Canarsie, a middle-income community in New York that was once the scene of a wild insurgency against racial busing.
