Hardback. Zustand: Good. Something is definitely wrong with Donald Trump?s presidency, but what exactly? The extraordinary negative reaction to Trump?s election - by conservative intellectuals, liberals, Democrats, and global leaders alike - goes beyond ordinary partisan and policy disagreements. It reflects genuine fear about the vitality of our constitutional system. The Founders, reaching back to classical precedents, feared that their experiment in self-government could produce a demagogue: a charismatic ruler who would gain and hold on to power by manipulating the public rather than by advancing the public good. President Trump, who has played to the mob and attacked institutions from the judiciary to the press, appears to embody these fears. How can we move past his rhetoric and maintain faith in our nation? In The Demagogue?s Playbook, acclaimed legal scholar Eric Posner offers a blueprint for how America can prevent the rise of a demagogue and protect the features of a democracy that help it thrive - and restore national greatness, for one and all.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Quick-witted, clever, and funny, the legendary Hershel of Ostropol is one of folk-lore's great tricksters. This funny collection of stories follows the celebrated Jewish folk hero as he outwits everone: stingy innkeepers, fierce bandits, even his own father. The author, Eric Kimmel, first heard many of these stories growing up in Brooklyn and has collected others from oral histories and anthologies of Jewish folklore. Kimmel writes in his forward: These stories reflect the values and cultural traditions of the Jewish communities of Eastern Europe. However, one does not have to be Jewish to enjoy them. Hershel, like Coyote, Ananasi, B'rer Rabbit, and Tyll Eulenspiegel, belongs to all of us. Illustrations from Caldecott-medalist Trina Schart Hyman grace the cover and introduce each story. Kimmel and Schart Hyman also collaborated on the classic Caldecott Honor book, Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins. Hyman, Trina Schart (illustrator). …

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The aspects of this text which we believe are novel, at least in degree, include: an effort to motivate different sections with practical examples and an empirical orientation; an effort to intersperse several easily motivated examples throughout the book and to maintain some continuity in these examples; and the extensive use of Monte Carlo simulations to demonstrate particular aspects of the problems and estimators being considered. In terms of material being presented, the unique aspects include the first chapter which attempts to address the use of empirical methods in the social sciences, the seventh chapter which considers models with discrete dependent variables and unobserved variables. Clearly these last two topics in particular are quite advanced--more advanced than material that is currently available on the subject. These last two topics are also currently experiencing rapid development and are not adequately described in most other texts.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. There was once a baker named Gershon who was a sinner. His sins were the common ordinary, stuff; a few little lies, a broken promise, a temper lost for no reason. But unlike most people, Gershon never regretted what he had done. He never apologized or asked anyone's forgiveness. Why should he? He merely swept the little monsters up and tossed them into the celler. Then, once a year, on Rosh Hashanah, he would stuff them in a sack and throw them into the sea. Why should he bother asking anyone for forgiveness when getting rid of them was so easy? It was only a matter of time, though, before Gershon's bad ways caught up with him. And they did come back to haunt him. One day, as his two children played by the sea, those sins he thought he'd gotten rid of had grown into a giant sea monster Now they threatened what was most dear to him: his beloved children. Was it too late for Gershon to save them from his own mistakes. Muth, Jon J (illustrator).…
