Failing at Fairness: How America's Schools Cheat Girls
Scribner 1994. Book. Near-Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-fine condition - NO price clippings or remainder marks - Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 - Price inside dustcover: $22.00 - Illustrated - 347 pages - Previous owner's name label in book front - on blank page. NO writing marks or tears inside book - Tight spine - bright pages. Dustcover is clean shows slight wear NO tears. The Sadkers top researchers in the field of education for 20 years have charted how from elementary school through college and into the working world girls are systematically denied opportunites in areas where boys are encouraged to excel often by well-meaning teachers who are unaware they are transmitting sexist values. FROM THE PUBLISHER Failing at Fairness is a powerful indictment of sexism in America's classrooms. The findings from twenty years of research by two of America's most distinguished social scientists show that gender bias in our schools makes it impossible for girls to receive an education equal to boys'. Girls are systematically denied opportunities in areas where boys are encouraged to excel often by well-meaning teachers who are unaware that they are transmitting sexist values. Girls are taught to speak quietly to defer to boys to avoid math and science and to value neatness over innovation appearance over intelligence. In the early grades girls brimming with intelligence and potential routinely outperform boys on achievement tests but by the time they graduate from high school they lag far behind boys - a process of degeneration that continues into adulthood. By the time girls enter the working world the damage has been done. Our daughters tomorrow's women learn that to be female is to be passive and deferential: We have effectively made girls second-class citizens in a world whose survival will depend on their contributions. The implications are devastating: If the cure for cancer is incubating in the mind of one of our daughters we may never find it. Professors Myra and David Sadker have produced a comprehensive compelling and essential resource. Scribner Hardcover

Safire William
In Love With Norma Loquendi
Random House Inc 1994. Book. Illus. by Bendis Keith. Fine. Trade Paperback. First Edition. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Near-new condition. NO remainder marks or clippings. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 352 pages. Tight spine clean pages. Illustrated. Synopsis At last the passionate pundit and alliterative analyst William Safire has written of his lifelong love affair with Norma Loquendi - common speech. Translated from Latin Norma Loquendi means "the everyday voice of the native speaker." William Safire has been entranced by plain-spoken language all of his life. Consumed by his desire for the proper word Safire bares his soul explaining why he favors naked aggression over nude aggression. He sensitively probes virile woman a phrase uttered by cigarette advertisers in search of a new target group. And taking liberties with Norma Safire admits he prefers enthuse to emote excite or gush even though he knows enthuse is not yet Standard English. Readers will experience the rapture of knowing the difference between a bubba a Southern redneck male and a buba an affectionate Yiddish term for a small grandmother. They will be able to distinguish between rich and wealthy "A rich family has to wait until its money ages before it becomes a wealthy family". And perhaps most important they will discover the correct pronunciation of salmon. A grand amount will attract attention so it comes as no surprise that Safire's liaisons with Norma are scrutinized by a crowd of grammatical voyeurs known as the Lexicographic Irregulars including Senator Daniel P. Moynihan General Colin Powell and comedian George Carlin who invented the phrase vuja de "the eerie sense that you never want to be in this place again". Words slip in and out of vogue. Meanings change. Grammar can be hard. Only love of the lingo survives. William Safire knows and he's willing to explain the difference between who and whom to prove it. Norma Loquendi - fickle mysterious relentless - will forever earn your tryst. Random House Inc Paperback

Safire William
Language Maven Strikes Again
New York New York U.S.A.: Doubleday 1990. Book. Very Good . Hardcover. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Very-good clean condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. Price inside dustcover: $22.95. Tight spine bright pages. NO writing marks or tears inside book. 448 pages. Publishers Weekly In this sixth collection of his syndicated ``On Language'' columns Safire deals wittily playfully and above all instructively with thorny linguistic issues. He takes to task writers who use the passive voice elitists who grimly stick to ``dicta'' and ``memoranda'' despite the general preference for ``-ums'' and groups who declare themselves offended by the use of certain words such as ``tribes''. The lordly language maven discusses the proper use of ``his/hers/theirs'' the pronunciation of ``vagaries'' the naming of pets and perfumes the difficulty of pinning down a definition of ``secular humanism.'' As in previous collections Safire includes articulate and ornery responses from the Gotcha! Gang the Nitpickers League and such individuals as Jacques Barzun Daniel Moynihan and Art Buchwald.
