Fredrick the Troll Wants New Hair is a playful story that chronicles a genuine quest from a child's perspective. Fredrick wants new hair and sets out on a journey to find it. Ultimately Fredrick's perseverance is rewarded, and he has magnificent new hair that is just right for him. Fredrick's adventure and his new floral hair are an allegory of how we come to know new ideas and make them our own. The people around us give us "seeds for thought". If we are like Fredrick, we can plant these ideas in the gardens of our minds, care for them dutifully and then we will have bright, beautiful ideas popping out of our headsThe story of Fredrick the Troll is my own echo of the biblical parable of the sower and the seeds. I was studying the writings of the Semiotician Charles Sanders Pierce when the relevance of that old and simple parable dawned upon me with tremendous power and clarity. Pierce sought to describe how the human mind comes to know things. Pierce's writings are notoriously difficult to understand and he was losing me in his labyrinth of detailed distinctions and pages of nuanced explanations. As I strained through another murky page of Pierce's writings, I realized that what I was reading seemed familiar. The process he was describing was the same process as the sower and the seed. Pierce explained how a person comes to know something in his mind. Jesus explained how a person comes to faith in his soul. Both processes are a process of personal cultivation of something received from outside of oneself. In our current cultural atmosphere of digital yelling and trying to verbally bludgeon one another with our opinions, we can learn from Jesus and Charles Sanders Pierce. These two intelligent thinkers reveal that there is never a true conversion of the mind or the heart brought about by force.

This book is about the man of the hour, who put the welfare of others above his own. He was a trade unionist of his own stature, an orator and a man of the people, a voice of the voiceless. He is remembered as one of the founders of the Movement for Multi party Democracy, a party that birthed multiparty politics in Zambia. It was born a time when the economy and social systems were failing the people and a remedy was needed to heal the ailing Zambia. FTJ as fondly known remains a hero that must be accorded his rightful place in the history of Zambia's governance. This was the second president of Zambia H.E the late Fredrick Jacob Titus Chiluba.

The historical significance of Barack Obama's triumph in the presidential election of 2008 scarcely requires comment. Yet it contains an irony: he won a victory as an African American only by denying that he should discuss issues that target the concerns of African Americans. Obama's very success, writes Fredrick Harris, exacted a heavy cost on black politics. In The Price of the Ticket, Harris puts Obama's career in the context of decades of black activism, showing how his election undermined the very movement that made it possible. The path to his presidency began just before passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, when black leaders began to discuss strategies to make the most of their new access to the ballot. Some argued that black voters should organize into a cohesive, independent bloc to promote both targeted and universal polices; others urged a more race-neutral approach, working together with other racial minorities as well as like-minded whites. This has been the fundamental divide within black politics ever since. At first, the gap did not seem serious. But the post-civil-rights era has accelerated a shift towards race-neutral politics. Obama made a point of distancing himself from older race-conscious black leaders, such as Jesse Jackson- and leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus-even though, as Harris shows, he owes much to Jackson's earlier campaigns for the White House. Unquestionably Obama's approach won support among whites, but Harris finds the results troublesome. The social problems targeted by an earlier generation of black politicians--racial disparities in income and education, stratospheric incarceration and unemployment rates--all persist, yet Obama's election, ironically, marginalized those issues, keeping them off the political agenda. Meanwhile, the civil-rights movement's militancy to attack the vestiges of racial inequality is fading. Written by one of America's leading scholars of race and politics, The Price of the Ticket will reshape our understanding of the rise of Barack Obama and the decline of a politics dedicated to challenging racial inequality head on.

In spite of all the media attention and national concern about schools, this is the only book that documents real improvements in learning, confidence, and morale, proven through the author's 15 years of research and experience. Rather than business or government imposing a solution to the problems in education, this is an inside solution developed by teachers, administrators, and board members. Genck details a system of participative and results-oriented management to replace traditional authoritarian school administration and its attendant conflict with teamwork and accountability.Using the techniques detailed here, students and teachers can gain three more years of learning during eight years of school, as well as attain greater satisfaction, confidence, morale, and cost-effectiveness. These are successful solutions already implemented in a variety of urban, suburban, and rural districts, with a documented track record of improvement.

During the 1930s, the United States began to look more favorably on its southern neighbors. Latin America offered expanded markets to an economy crippled by the Great Depression, while threats of war abroad nurtured in many Americans isolationist tendencies and a desire for improved hemispheric relations.One of these Americans was Franklin Delano Roosevelt, the primary author of America's Good Neighbor Policy. In this thought-provoking book, Fredrick Pike takes a wide-ranging look at FDR's motives for pursuing the Good Neighbor Policy, at how he implemented it, and at how its themes have played out up to the mid-1990s.Pike's investigation goes far beyond standard studies of foreign and economic policy. He explores how FDR's personality and Eleanor Roosevelt's social activism made them uniquely simpático to Latin Americans. He also demonstrates how Latin culture flowed north to influence U.S. literature, film, and opera. The book will be essential reading for everyone interested in hemispheric relations.

The lazy greaser asleep under a sombrero and the avaricious gringo with money-stuffed pockets are only two of the negative stereotypes that North Americans and Latin Americans have cherished during several centuries of mutual misunderstanding. This unique study probes the origins of these stereotypes and myths and explores how they have shaped North American impressions of Latin America from the time of the Pilgrims up to the end of the twentieth century.Fredrick Pike's central thesis is that North Americans have identified themselves with "civilization" in all its manifestations, while viewing Latin Americans as hopelessly trapped in primitivism, the victims of nature rather than its masters. He shows how this civilization-nature duality arose from the first European settlers' perception that nature-and everything identified with it, including American Indians, African slaves, all women, and all children-was something to be conquered and dominated. This myth eventually came to color the North American establishment view of both immigrants to the United States and all our neighbors to the south.
