Summary of Elliott Bisnow, Brett Leve, Jeff Rosenthal & Jeremy Schwartz's Make No Small Plans
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 In 2007, Elliott Bisnow, Brett Leve, Jeff Rosenthal, and Jeremy Schwartz were thinking about starting a company. They weren’t the Beatles, but they had a similar story of how they came together. They all had different problems they wanted to solve, and they wanted to do it together. #2 After graduating from college, Elliott went straight into working for his father’s company. He was selling local real estate ads, and he finally got a check in the mail after a few months. He realized he had a job. #3 Jeff’s childhood was shaped by his grandfather’s philosophy: A large extended family is the greatest luxury in life. His grandmother Joy was the matriarch of the family, and she held seventy cousins, aunts, and uncles together by hosting family dinners nearly every weekend. #4 The band’s success was growing, but Jeremy was starting to feel the pressure of being in a band. He decided to leave and join us, which was the first of many bold ideas that would shape a generation of world-changing companies.

Quality Education for Latinos and Latinas
As educators and legislators across the country debate how to improve public schools, the most vital factor often disappears from the equation—the relationship between the teacher and the student. According to veteran educators Rita and Marco Portales, this relationship is the central issue in the education of students, especially Latino/a students who often face serious barriers to school success because of the legacy of racism, insufficient English-language skills, and cultural differences with the educational establishment. To break down these barriers and help Latino/a students acquire a quality education, the Portaleses focus attention on the teacher-student relationship and offer a p...

Propositional Content
Peter Hanks defends a new theory about the nature of propositional content. According to this theory, the basic bearers of representational properties are particular mental or spoken actions. Propositions are types of these actions, which we use to classify and individuate our attitudes and speech acts. Hanks abandons several key features of the traditional Fregean conception of propositional content, including the idea that propositions are the primary bearers of truth-conditions, the distinction between content and force, and the concept of entertainment. The main difficulty for this traditional conception is the problem of the unity of the proposition, the problem of explaining how propositions have truth conditions and other representational properties. The new theory developed here, in its place, explains the unity of propositions and provides new solutions to a long list of puzzles and problems in philosophy of language.
