If you are interested in aesthetics, this is an essential. I am doing research on the German Enlightenment, and only Croce offers a detailed discourse on thinkers whose importance only matches their obscurity. The first half of this book presents Croce's own aesthetic theory: an atheistic theory with a Hegelian twist (he wrote what is living and what is dead of Hegel) that is spiritual without being religious. The second half of the book is the real gem. This is a detailed history of aesthetics, in all its obscurantist glory! Do not deny yourself a book that is both an illuminating introduction to aesthetics via its history, a penetrating theory of aesthetics, and a great reference book for an aesthetician. The man who coined the term aesthetics, Alexander Baumgarten, is developed in this book ... one of the few books that goes beyond mentioning his name and importance.

Leo Frobenius and Douglas C. Fox's African Genesis covers the folk tales and myths of Africa, providing a range of simple stories and illustrating them with adaptations of prehistoric rock paintings and portraits of modern Africans. An excellent addition to any ethnic collection.

We all know that there are SERIOUS social and economic problems facing this country, (and the world). It is often impossible to argue this case, even though, in a visceral sense, we know it is true. This book lays out the 'economic indicators', in a straight forward way, such that we, the lay people can not only understand them, but also equip ourselves to set forth a strong argument, with the skeptics, the politicians and the corporate monstors in their own language. I would highly recommend it. But is is not really light reading ! However, it is concise.

Some time ago, I had in my hands this book. And never forgot it. This book is the most comprehensive work about agri-markets. In fact, in a wide range of topics we can learn macro and micro economics that rules this special market. I remember, in special, the chapter that describes the price determinations. The clarity of concepts with a easily assimilation, with a lot of cases that get to readers a simply notion of his contents. In brief I believe this book is a powerfull tool for students, farmers, economist, and all those people interesten in behavoir of Agri Markets.

This book used to be extremely hard to find, so it's nice to see this edition and know that it's been reprinted since i read it in '82.

Here's what makes this book so interesting: Douglas was a student of literature, British, so his perspective on being a tanker in WWII reflects an insightful sensibility. He fought in numerous campaigns in Africa (Alamein and on) before dying in Normandy shortly after being called back to active duty. Douglas is considered one of the finest war poets of WWII, but it's his descriptions of tank battles and the hot, concussive nature of it that is most memorable to me.

This is the kind of war memoir that is often overlooked but rare in it's depth and scope.
