I love Shaila Dewan and how she writes. She doesn't just tell a story... She lives it. You can feel the emotion behind her writing and feel like she is telling it to you face to face, not just though words on a page. If I could summarize her in 1 word... It would be beastly.

This article is a must read.

Trying to understand the complexities of what is going on in Iraq I was looking for an authoritative book that could be trusted.
I heard Packer speak on NPR about his book and then read an article by ?? Wilkerson, a retired military officer, who spoke highly of the book.
I was not disapointed. The book contained much first hand information about several persons involved in the lead up to the war. Not only is the American side of the issue dealt with but the mostly untold story of how the Iraqis have suffered and continue to suffer. The daily news reports continue to corroborate the analysis that Packer gives to the situation that he witnessed. Well written and extremely worthwhile.

This article provides valuable insight into how domestic laws and judicial processes apply and do not apply to international incidents. It is worthy reading for law students, prelaw majors, and those practicing international law.

This article may be helpful to accounting and finance business people because it introduces the concept of supply chain management as way to create customer value rather than merely to contain costs. This perspective is not the prevalent way that supply chain management is viewed by most business organizations. However, the increasing commoditization of the goods element of many firms' products means that the services surrounding those goods often represent the most viable means of differentiating a firm's products. And the output of the supply chain management process is the service provided for the firm's customers. Accordingly, the value creation perspective articulated in this brief article should prove informative to many business executives and managers.

New York, New York: Vintage, 1967. Mass Market Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket as Issued. Revised Edition. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. The Viet-nam Reader By Marcus G.Raskin and Bernard B. Fall Articles and documents on American foreign policy in the Viet-Nam crisis. Bernard Fall and Marcus Raskin have been among the most clear headed American critics of this country 's Viet Nam policies. The book of selected readings they have put together is, in to my knowledge, the best place now available for non-experts to begin their acquaintance with a lasting years or so of the Viet Nam situation. . In is also probably the right book to recommend to the student who wants to find out more than what the newspapers have told him about the Viet Nam conflict. ~ Louis Lipsitz, American Political Science Revue.

Midgley is something of a marvel - a true common-sense philosopher. I'm a bit baffled as to why she doesn't circulate more than she does.

I strongly recommend purchasing this brief article - it's dirt cheap, and a good introduction to her meatier and more thorough books such as _Evolution_as_a_Religion_ (a defense of what Evolution really is, as well as what it means for the stories we tell of ourselves and our world: it is not a proposal to turn evolution into a religion or an attack on evolutionary theory, only an attack on some of the dramas that slip in under the aegis of that legitimate scientific theory, distorting the theory and perverting human nature as a result) and _Science_and_Poetry_. You really ought to buy both.

I've known for some time that "religion" is not equivalent to Protestant fundamentalism, but is a dimension of anthropology, rather than some kind of "idea-virus" or "meme" that operates as something additional and superfluous to the fullness of our humanity (the bogus science and metaphoric underpinnings of Dawkins' "meme" is addressed in both of Midgley's books that I mentioned above: it is not addressed in this article). I've also been aware that the dramas and metaphors that are used by many who champion "reason" against "superstition" are themselves dependent upon and indebted to the dramas and categories inherited from their chosen enemies ("the children of light" vs. "the children of darkness," anyone?). I've also noticed that they seem a bit preoccupied with Protestant fundamentalism, and rhetorically equate that with Christianity. How irritating and conversation-stopping for the rest of us.

However, I'd never really considered at length the mythology (I do not use that word pejoratively or derogatively - I'm quite comfortable talking about my own) of those who live through the peculiar drama of "scientism," or the actual symbolic world they live in. Midgley shows us what that is, and compares it with some of the parallel elements she finds unfavorable in other traditions/mythologies. She is not simplistic. She recognizes the complexity of this kind of dramatic/religious/symbolic phenomenon, and yet speaks about it rather simply, in a manner that any literate person can grasp.

Highly recommended. If you are limited on time, at the very least read it together with _Evolution_as_a_Religion_.
