FROM THE PUBLISHER - Science has never been conducted with quite the cold objectivity of popular imagination. On the contrary as the authors in The Politics of Western Science set out to show science has always been carried out within a relationship which maintains a dialogue with the political issues of its particular time. The collection provides an overview for the nonspecialist showing just how political choices have influenced scientific ideas and their uses and the ways in which national styles of science as well as beliefs and ideologies have shaped the contours of science over three hundred years. inventory #41036 ISBN: 0391038346. paperback

Guilford CT: Lyons Press 2012. First Printing Stated. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. viii 279 1 pages. Illustrations. Chapter Notes. Bibliography. Index. Inscribed by both co-authors on the title page. Inscription reads: To Cokie Roberts. We read your book on Founder Mother. We agree with you about Peggy! Mark Jacob and Stephen Case July 2012. Mark Jacob was the deputy Metro editor at the Chicago Tribune and was part of a team that won a Pulitzer Prize in 2001. Steven Case is a lawyer entrepreneur and professor at Georgetown University He is a member of the board of the American Revolution Center. Peggy Shippen a lovely young lady from Philadelphia married a man twice her age General Benedict Arnold before he conspired to deliver the strategically vital forts at West Point New York to the British. Her story took a dramatic turn when the papers of British General Henry Clinton which were acquired in the 1920's and donated to a library at the University of Michigan implicated Peggy as a key player in the turncoat negotiations between her husband and the British. Histories of the Revolutionary War have long honored heroines such as Betsy Ross Abigail Adams and Molly Pitcher. Now more than two centuries later comes the first biography of one of the war's most remarkable women a beautiful Philadelphia society girl named Peggy Shippen. While war was raging between England and its rebellious colonists Peggy befriended a suave British officer and then married a crippled revolutionary general twice her age. She brought the two men together in a treasonous plot that nearly turned George Washington into a prisoner and changed the course of the war. Peggy Shippen was Mrs. Benedict Arnold. After the conspiracy was exposed Peggy managed to convince powerful men like Washington and Alexander Hamilton of her innocence. The Founding Fathers were handicapped by the common view that women lacked the sophistication for politics or warfare much less treason. And Peggy took full advantage. Peggy was to the American Revolution what the fictional Scarlett O'Hara was to the Civil War: a woman whose survival skills trumped all other values. Had she been a man she might have been arrested tried and executed. And she might have become famous. Instead her role was minimized and she was allowed to recede into the background-with a generous British pension in hand. In Treacherous Beauty Mark Jacob and Stephen H. Case tell the true story of Peggy Shippen a driving force in a conspiracy that came within an eyelash of dooming the American democracy. Lyons Press hardcover

Cambridge MA: MIT Press 1998. Hardcover. VG- light corner bumping. Color-illustrated boards with navy and white lettering. 172 pp. Color and BW illustrations. This book addresses one of the most troubling questions of contemporary art theory and practice: Who is contemporary art for Although the divide between contemporary art and the public has long been acknowledged this is the first time that artists critics and the public have come together to debate the problem and to make artmaking criticism and public reaction part of the same process. Like the exhibitions discussions and seminars held at "The Castle" during the summer 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta this book is based on the premise that contemporary artists and the general public have something to say to each other. By positing the space of "conversation" as one in which artworks can be experienced as creative sites open to multilayered interpretations by changing audiences the book provides an antidote to the modernist connoisseurial silence that has long been used to define quality. -Amazon.

Milano Milan Italy: Charta 2005. Softcover. VG. Black & color wraps French flaps 152 pp. 321 color illus. Considers the life and work of Chilean-born artist and architect Alfredo Jaar b. 1956. "An architect interested in ephemeral structures a photographer who has grown increasingly suspicious of pictures Alfredo Jaar's most telling gesture is to relinquish the camera by placing it figuratively and sometimes literally in the public's hands. In other words Jaar is a master of indirection. And no wonder. His work was shaped at the outset by the need to speak clearly and forcefully against murderous injustice using language of the most lucid obliquity. Jaar's work declares that daring to connect and participate is our last best hope." back cover. Charta paperback books
