From when

When sanctions prohibited local use of racially, ethnically, and scatalogically offensive toponyms, names like Jap Valley, California, were erased from the national and cultural map forever. This title considers the efforts to computerize mapmaking, standardize geographic names, and respond to public concern over ethnically offensive appellations.

When and where did science begin? Historians have offered different answers to these questions, some pointing to Babylonian observational astronomy. This title examines how students of nature themselves, in various cultures and periods of history, have understood and represented their work.

During the Great Recession, the housing bubble took much of the blame for bringing the American economy to its knees, but commercial real estate also experienced its own boom-and-bust in the same time period. In Chicago, for example, law firms and corporate headquarters abandoned their historic downtown office buildings for the millions of brand-new square feet that were built elsewhere in the central business district. What causes construction booms like this, and why do they so often leave a glut of vacant space and economic distress in their wake? In From Boom to Bubble, Rachel Weber debunks the idea that booms occur only when cities are growing and innovating. Instead, she argues, even in cities experiencing employment and population decline, developers rush to erect new office towers and apartment buildings when they have financial incentives to do so. Focusing on the main causes of overbuilding during the early 2000s, Weber documents the case of Chicago's "Millennial Boom," showing that the Loop's expansion was a response to global and local pressures to produce new assets. An influx of cheap cash, made available through the use of complex financial instruments, helped transform what started as a boom grounded in modest occupant demand into a speculative bubble, where pricing and supply had only tenuous connections to the market. Innovative and compelling, From Boom to Bubble is an unprecedented historical, sociological, and geographic look at how property markets change and fail-and how that affects cities. show more

When Plato set his dialogs, written texts were disseminated primarily by performance and recitation. He wrote them, however, when literacy was expanding. Jill Frank argues that there are unique insights to be gained from appreciating Plato's dialogs as written texts to be read and reread. At the center of these insights are two distinct ways of learning to read in the dialogs. One approach that appears in the Statesman, Sophist, and Protagoras, treats learning to read as a top-down affair, in which authoritative teachers lead students to true beliefs. Another, recommended by Socrates, encourages trial and error and the formation of beliefs based on students' own fallible experiences. In all of these dialogs, learning to read is likened to coming to know or understand something. Given Plato's repeated presentation of the analogy between reading and coming to know, what can these two approaches tell us about his dialogs' representations of philosophy and politics? With Poetic Justice, Jill Frank overturns the conventional view that the Republic endorses a hierarchical ascent to knowledge and the authoritarian politics associated with that philosophy. When learning to read is understood as the passive absorption of a teacher's beliefs, this reflects the account of Platonic philosophy as authoritative knowledge wielded by philosopher kings who ruled the ideal city. When we learn to read by way of the method Socrates introduces in the Republic, Frank argues, we are offered an education in ethical and political self-governance, one that prompts citizens to challenge all claims to authority, including those of philosophy. show more

When Jessa Crispin was thirty, she burned her settled Chicago life to the ground and took off for Berlin with a pair of suitcases and no plan beyond leaving. Half a decade later, she's still on the road, in search not so much of a home as of understanding, a way of being in the world that demands neither constant struggle nor complete surrender. The Dead Ladies Project is an account of that journey-but it's also much, much more. Fascinated by exile, Crispin travels an itinerary of key locations in its literary map, of places that have drawn writers who needed to break free from their origins and start afresh. As she reflects on William James struggling through despair in Berlin, Nora Barnacle dependant on and dependable for James Joyce in Trieste, Maud Gonne fomenting revolution and fostering myth in Dublin, or Igor Stravinsky starting over from nothing in Switzerland, Crispin interweaves biography, incisive literary analysis, and personal experience into a rich meditation on the complicated interactions of place, personality, and society that can make escape and reinvention such an attractive, even intoxicating proposition. Personal and profane, funny and fervent, The Dead Ladies Project ranges from the nineteenth century to the present, from historical figures to brand-new hangovers, in search, ultimately, of an answer to a bedrock question: How does a person decide how to live their life? show more

When ordering the first dimension is the depth x second dimension is the wall mount leg. For example a 6x10 has a 6" depth (shelf) x 10" wall mount leg... a 10x6 has a 10" depth (shelf) x 6" wall mount leg. The lip is 4" standard, if you need a higher or shorter lip/size please let me know! Our rustic raw steel shelf bracket comes with a 4” high lip, perfect for use as a mantle or for a thicker shelf. Handmade of heavy duty steel that is locally sourced, the bracket is 4 inches wide with our trademark, slightly concave support bracket for a little added style. We just love the look of the raw steel with a rustic wood plank. All brackets are made to order from 1/4" thick steel and come pre drilled with 1/4" holes. The steel is raw and unfinished in a black/grey for a rustic modern look. You can choose from our finishing options if you'd like them finished in a different style. Please see below for care instructions. - Price is for ONE bracket only, wood mantel is not included. - Brackets shipped with finish that you select. Please add a week for powder coating. Bare/Raw steel is uncoated. - Locally sourced steel. - 4” wide with 4” lip in 8 sizes (Depth of bracket is bent ~ 1/8 over size ordered, this gives your mantel a little wiggle room to fit properly) - Pre Drilled with 1/4" holes - ¼” thick. - Made to order. - FREE US shipping. - Handmade in the USA. If you have any questions regarding this bracket, or would like a custom order in a different size, simply hit the “Ask a Question” button next to the price and we will get back to you within 24 hours! HOW DO WE MAKE OUR BRACKETS? Everything we make is made to order! We start by using raw steel that we buy in 20' lengths from local mills in Syracuse & Utica, NY. Even though we consistently buy the same grade of hot rolled steel, each batch can vary in color, scale, scratches and other visible imperfections. We cut the steel to the needed lengths on our band saw and deburr it to smooth all edges. The steel is marked, drilled, and then bent. If the brackets/corbels have a support bar, they are sent over to our welding area to be finished. Before anything leaves the shop, we meticulously look over the brackets/corbels over for any visible oxidation or "rust". If we see any, it is removed with a scotch brite pad or steel wool before it is shipped. CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Over time, most metal will oxidize or "rust". The rate at which this happens varies and depends on the environment and level of humidity. Since our customers preferences varies, if you choose to leave the steel raw, we recommend using a dry scotch brite pad or steel wool to remove any visible "rust" as it occurs. Some customers paint our products with rust protecting paint, like Rustoleum, or they use beeswax to coat the metal to help prevent "rusting". Thanks for shopping at Industrial Farm Co. Barn!

When Dave Hickey was twelve, he rode the surfer's dream: the perfect wave. And, like so many things in life we long for, it didn't quite turn out----he shot the pier and dashed himself against the rocks of Sunset Cliffs in Ocean Beach, which just about killed him. Fortunately, for Hickey and for us, he survived, and continues to battle, decades into a career as one of America's foremost critical iconoclasts, a trusted, even cherished no-nonsense voice commenting on the all-too-often nonsensical worlds of art and culture. Perfect Wave brings together essays on a wide range of subjects from throughout Hickey's career, displaying his usual breadth of interest and powerful insight into what makes art work, or not, and why we care. With Hickey as our guide, we travel to Disneyland and Vegas, London and Venice. We discover the genius of Karen Carpenter and Waylon Jennings, learn why Robert Mitchum matters more than Jimmy Stewart, and see how the stillness of Antonioni speaks to us today. Never slow to judge or to surprise us in doing so Hickey powerfully relates his wincing disappointment in the later career of his early hero Susan Sontag, and shows us the appeal to our commonality that we've been missing in Norman Rockwell. With each essay, the doing is as important as what's done; the pleasure of reading Dave Hickey lies nearly as much in spending time in his company as in being surprised to find yourself agreeing with his conclusions. Bookended by previously unpublished personal essays that offer a new glimpse into Hickey's own life including the aforementioned slam-bang conclusion to his youthful surfing career Perfect Wave is not a perfect book. But it's a damn good one, and a welcome addition to the Hickey canon. show more
