NÃO LEVE ESTE LIVRO PELA CAPA!!!! UMA VIDA PERFEITA - Trata-se de um resumo da visão de sociedade perfeita do autor, assim como Platão fez em A República, Thomas Morus em sua A Utopia, Francis Bacon em sua A nova Atlântida só para citar os mais conhecidos. Imagine uma ilha onde os governantes não possuem nenhum privilégio, status e todos eles têm de prestar reverência aos professores. Onde os corruptos reincidentes são executados e a corrupção é quase zero. Onde os que têm valor não são os que acumulam mais bens materiais, mas sim os que desenvolvem projetos que beneficiam a população em geral ou que deixam algum legado cultural a humanidade. A personagem moradora desse peculiar lugar narra como é viver por lá. A MISSÃO - O que seria capaz de tirar o sono de um homem contemporâneo e poderoso? O menor conto do livro fala da saga de um executivo, que mesmo tendo alcançado o ápice do sucesso, ainda se vê apequenado pelas questões mais triviais do cotidiano. Sua maior e premente ambição agora é algo tão simplório e ao mesmo tempo tão fundamental que faz com que até um homem como ele quase seja levado às raias da loucura. O ENCARCERADO - O que é pior: ser privado de liberdade ou de sono? E se nossa personagem mesmo sem culpa passa a experimentar subitamente essas duas obscuras possibilidades. Como (sobre)viver preso sob a autoridade de 3 carcereiros que têm como único objetivo manter-lhe acordado 24h por dia, custe o que custar? Aqui, o autor se vale de uma metáfora no intuito de mesclar a noção de autoridade à experiência vivida quando dos seus últimos relacionamentos amorosos... Todos frustrados claro! A ASSEMBLEIA - O que dizer de um solteirão solitário (não por opção) vivendo desesperadamente em busca de sua sobrevivência, ainda ter de lidar com a confusão causada por um Morcego sensato, um Rato covarde e uma Barata corajosa em seu lar-reduto último do seu sossego existencial . Sua solução para tentar solucionar esse impasse: convocar uma Assembleia de condomínio e interrogá-los um por um do porquê que eles insistem em invadir sua casa, transformando sua vida num inferno. O que será que esses singelos animaizinhos têm a dizer em relação as suas defesas? Chegaram todos a um consenso? Houve um final feliz?

A “fascinating” (The Economist) dive into the world of linguistics that is “part travelogue, part science lesson, part intellectual investigation…an entertaining, informative survey of some of the most fascinating polyglots of our time” (The New York Times Book Review). In Babel No More, Michael Erard, “a monolingual with benefits,” sets out on a quest to meet language superlearners and make sense of their mental powers. On the way he uncovers the secrets of historical figures like the nineteenth-century Italian cardinal Joseph Mezzofanti, who was said to speak seventy-two languages, as well as those of living language-superlearners such as Alexander Arguelles, a modern-day polyglot who knows dozens of languages and shows Erard the tricks of the trade to give him a dark glimpse into the life of obsessive language acquisition. With his ambitious examination of what language is, where it lives in the brain, and the cultural implications of polyglots’ pursuits, Erard explores the upper limits of our ability to learn and use languages and illuminates the intellectual potential in everyone. How do some people escape the curse of Babel—and what might the gods have demanded of them in return?

This book reviews Marx's contributions to the debate on the working class. The first part of the work presents the synthesis of the main contributions of Marx and Engels (and 20th century Marxist writers) to the understanding of social classes, the class struggle, and the working class. The remaining parts present exercises of dialogue between Marx's and Marxists’ discussions on the working class, presented in the first part, and empirical elements of class reality today, as well as debates in the social sciences and historiography on the same issues. The thesis defended in the book is simple: the "working class,” also called the "proletariat,” as it appears in the work of Karl Marx, had and has validity as an analytical category for the understanding of social life under capitalism. Nevertheless, Marx’s discussion on the issue is complex and the category “working class” in his approach is wider than many Marxists have presented it.

Africana Critical Theory written by Reiland Rabaka and has been published by Lexington Books this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with Biography & Autobiography categories.
Building on and going far beyond W.E.B. Du Bois and the Problems of the Twenty-First Century and Du Bois's Dialectics, Reiland Rabaka's Africana Critical Theory innovatively identifies and analyzes continental and diasporan African contributions to classical and contemporary critical theory. This book represents a climatic critical theoretical clincher that cogently demonstrates how Du Bois's rarely discussed dialectical thought, interdisciplinarity, intellectual history-making radical political activism, and world-historical multiple liberation movement leadership helped to inaugurate a distinct Africana tradition of critical theory. With chapters on W.E.B. Du Bois, C.L.R. James, Negritude (Aime Cesaire and Leopold Senghor), Frantz Fanon and Amilcar Cabral, Africana Critical Theory endeavors to accessibly offer contemporary critical theorists an intellectual archaeology of the Africana tradition of critical theory and a much-needed dialectical deconstruction and reconstruction of black radical politics. These six seminal figures' collective thought and texts clearly cuts across several disciplines and, therefore, closes the chasm between Africana Studies and critical theory, constantly demanding that intellectuals not simply think deep thoughts, develop new theories, and theoretically support radical politics, but be and constantly become political activists, social organizers and cultural workers - that is, folk the Italian critical theorist Antonio Gramsci referred to as 'organic intellectuals.' In this sense, then, the series of studies gathered in Africana Critical Theory contribute not only to African Studies, African American Studies, Caribbean Studies, Cultural Studies, Gender Studies, and Postcolonial Studies, but also to contemporary critical theoretical discourse across an amazingly wide-range of 'traditional' disciplines, and radical political activism outside of (and, in many instances, absolutely against) Europe's ivory towers and the absurdities of the American academy.
