Vibrant, flamboyant, lovely and lively, Jeen the 'Tween' Green is a twelve-year-old Black girl who lives at the intersection of dream and reality. In 2020, Lansing, Michigan, Jeen stays with her parents, grandmother and 'Baby' brother. Her dreams are centered around her skills as a guitar playing singer song writer. She's driven to compile that one mix tape that propels her to pop rock hip hop star status and a Grammy. Jeen is driven by the notion of success and money. She cherishes friendship, and her unique relationship with God. Jeen also embraces her blackness, and harnesses strength from successful Black women. Having a school teacher father, and a nurse mom, Jeen is middle class, rich nor poor. For the most part she's centered but internalizes 'normal' emotional stress associated with being young, gifted and/or Black. Jeen loathes politics, however, as a result of the Covid pandemic, social activism at home, and in the media, she's forced to delve deeper into the meaning of life. Her sole reason for existing shifts from fame and fortune to how can she use her skills to positively impact social injustices that she sees unfolding on a daily basis. The Green family undergo American experiences dealing with a pandemic, that include but are not limited to; layoffs, school closures, lockdown restrictions and immense suffering. Aside from family tragedy, what impacts Jeen most are social injustices splattered across the web, specifically the George Floyd murder, police brutality against Black and brown people, unfair women's rights, etc. Another fact that makes Jeen compelling is how she embraces the promise of an inclusive political machine over a corrupt one. Although young, Jeen sees that protesting alone is not enough to make lasting change in an imbalanced country layered with systemic racism, sexism, and phobias. After seeing a fair presidential election topple a crooked administration, Jeen realizes that voting combined with activism are critical toward mending a broken society. Even though she's pre-voting age, Jeen adds to her to-do list mobilizing a new wave of youth to vote and prevent GOP politics from ruining her dreams of making America truly a great country. These valuable life lessons lead to self-awareness, and purpose.

Technological Change and the British Iron Industry, 1700-1870
Charles K. Hyde
Princeton University Press
2019
pokkari
This book describes technological change in an industry that played a central role in the Indsutrial Revolution. While earlier scholars have examined isolated aspects of ironmaking in the eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Britain, Charles Hyde surveys all aspects of its development. Costs, prices, profits, shrewd leaders, competition, new inventions, and productivity all figure in this story of a key industry during the major period of its evolution.The author's account illuminates not only the nature of innovation in one industry, but the nature of technologial change in general. using new data compiled form the records of the ironmaking concerns, Professor Hyde considers each of the basic economic variables affecting entrepreneurial decisions. He finds that ironmaking advanced through a process of gradual, continuous change rather than through a series of discrete innovations. The rate of diffusion of new techniques corresponded to their profitability when compared to that of existing means of production--a finding that explains that timing of innovation.Charles K. Hyde is Assistant Professor of Social Science at Monteith College, Wayne State University.Originally published in 1977.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.
