"Modern science has shown that within the child's soul lies magically locked up all the past of our race; also, it is evident that within it lies all the future of our race. What our children are now being made is what America will be." -Upton Sinclair, The Goslings In The Goslings: A Study of American Schools (1924), Upton Sinclair examines how American industry influences public schools, asserting that "an 'invisible' government" of big business . . . has taken over the charge of your children." The book describes the influence of industry with examples from schools of several major cities. Also included are sections that examine what and how a variety of forces shape education. It is one in a series of six books the author wrote, analyzing American institutions from a socialist perspective. Other books in this muckraking Dead-Hand collection, include: The Profits of Religion (religion, 1917), The Brass Check (journalism, 1919), The Goose Step (education, 1923), Mammonart (art, 1925), and Money Writes! (literature,1927), all available from Cosimo Classics.

Goslings is a thrilling post-apocalyptic adventure. The story starts when a plague kills most of England's male population. It revolves around the Gosling family, free to fulfill its long-frustrated desires after the epidemic. Mr. Gosling leaves his home to pursue his sexual desires, and the Gosling daughters, with a lack of experience and self-independence, find shelter in a female-dominated agricultural community. However, their new life is endangered because of the community elders' opinions on free love. The author used excellently realistic details in an ironic description of a wrecked world through the lens of a lower-middle-class London family. It is a remarkable comedy of manners and a brilliant commentary on life that talks about sexual and social equality. It is a must-read for science fiction fans.

“Papa Goose is destined to become a classic. This book has everything in it I love: great animals beautifully portrayed as individuals; cool science; drama, discovery, and personal transformation.” —Sy Montgomery, author of Birdology and The Soul of An Octopus The charming true story of one man’s journey to raise seven goslings in the name of science. In Papa Goose, Michael Quetting shares the hilarious and moving true story of how he became a father to seven rambunctious goslings—and the surprising things he learned along the way. Starting right at the beginning, with the eggs, his journey takes him from the incubator all the way to the airstrip, where he must attempt to teach the geese to fly as part of an ambitious scientific research initiative for the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology, which tracks animal migrations around the world. For the next eleven months, we follow the newly minted dad as he takes the goslings on daily swims in the lake, tracks them down when they go astray, and watches their personalities develop: feisty, churlish, and lovable. Packed with charm and humor, Papa Goose quickly draws us into the adventure as Gloria, Nemo, and the rest of the crew conquer land, water, and air.

Filled with edgy humour and photos that graphically illustrate his physical perfection, 100 Reasons to Love Ryan Gosling provides scientifically irrefutable evidence of exactly why Ryan is so damn loveable. Is it because he looks good in anything? Breaks up street brawls? Is great with kids? Has no problem with nudity? It's all these things - and more.
