As summer comes to a close, the Gekkards find themselves sound asleep from a late night celebration. Only to be awoken by the arrival of autumn and reminders of the tasty berries awaiting them at the Gekkleberry Tree. Off they go on an adventure filled with surprise, delight, disappointment and mistakes. It is a humorous tale filled with original characters, rich illustrations and a vibrant view into a world where silliness and splendor collide.

Explaining Postmodernism: Skepticism and Socialism from Rousseau to Foucault

Tracing postmodernism from its roots in Jean-Jacques Rousseau and Immanuel Kant to their development in thinkers such as Michel Foucault and Richard Rorty, philosopher Stephen Hicks provides a provocative account of why postmodernism has been the most vigorous intellectual movement of the late 20th century. Why do skeptical and relativistic arguments have such power in the contemporary intellectual world? Why do they have that power in the humanities but not in the sciences? Why has a significant portion of the political Left - the same Left that traditionally promoted reason, science, equality for all, and optimism - now switched to themes of anti-reason, anti-science, double standards, and cynicism? Explaining Postmodernism is intellectual history with a polemical twist, providing fresh insights into the debates underlying the furor over political correctness, multiculturalism, and the future of liberal democracy.

Right Before Our Eyes: Latinos Past, Present & Future

Right now, more than 40 million Latinos reside, work, and go to school in America. Between 2000 and 2010, it is estimated that Hispanics will account for close to 46% of this country's total population growth, making it the nation's largest minority group. For the first time in one readable source, RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES helps us to understand why Latinos are a growing and significant economic engine. Latinos and non-Latinos alike will have a vivid picture of the contributions, the changes, the near-and long-term impact that Latinos have had and will have on America at every level: history, business, arts and culture, politics and government, the judiciary, the military and every other major element that contributes to society. RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES provides a concise yet comprehensive history of Hispanic contributions to this country, all the way back to what was in truth the first "permanent" European settlement in America - which was not in Jamestown, but in St. Augustine, Florida. The books moves forward through contributions by Hispanics in virtually every important area of the nation's history, with forty-two Medals of Honor, a Nobel Prize in science, and a myriad of achievements in government and education. Most importantly, RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES culminates in a very specific call to action, a loud and clear path that will redress the almost shocking absence of Latinos in positions of top leadership in this nation's major institutions. When will Latinos be appointed to the highest levels of this country's institutions, so that they may also be in top leadership roles to shape the direction and greatness of America? RIGHT BEFORE OUR EYES suggests a powerful, positive beginning.
