Jeffrey T, Richelson - The Wizards of Langley, Ins ide the CIA's Directorate of Science and Technolog y (2001).jpg

USA Books - Jeffrey T, Richelson - The Wizards of Langley, Inside ...de the CIAs Directorate of Science and Technology 2001.jpg
In 1956, the CIA dramatically breached the Iron Curtain when its U-2 began overflying Soviet territory to photograph that nation’s military installations. Four years later, the Soviets would shoot down pilot Francis Gary Powers and his U-2, thereby ceasing these missions. Within months, however, the CIA had another, and better, technical program in operation - the CORONA satellite. Throughout the Cold War and beyond, the CIA's scientific wizards would continue to devise high-tech ways to collect and analyze information about potential adversaries. Their mission was of such importance that a new branch of the CIA was created - the Directorate of Science and Technology. In this first full-length study of the CIA's Directorate of Science and Technology, author Jeffrey Richelson introduces us to key personalities who helped shape the directorate: Edwin Land of Polaroid, Albert Wheelon, Carl Duckett, and others who operated secretly within the directorate such as Antonio Mendez, whose “technical service” skills helped six Americans escape Iran after the seizure of the U.S. Embassy in 1979.Richelson presents intriguing details - many never before published - of the directorate's programs and activities. For example, the CIA's wizards: Designed, developed, and operated a series of high-tech imagery and eavesdropping satellites and aircraft, including the KH-11 and RHYOLITE, which revolutionized U.S. intelligence capabilities Established ground stations in Iran, Norway, and China to monitor missile testing as well as manning embassy listening posts around the world Employed technical intelligence analysts and photographic interpreters to unravel the secrets of foreign missile and space programs and monitor developments, including Chernobyl and the Gulf War, across the globe Devised a vast assortment of equipment to support clandestine operations-from collecting intelligence to assisting the escape of Americans hiding in Iran to helping Delta Force apprehend an ally of Somali warlord Mohammed Farah Aideed Developed a key component of heart pacemaker technology and other scientific advances, which have medical or other purposes Attempted to employ psychics to uncover foreign military secrets Employed birds (and unmanned aerial vehicles that appeared to be birds) and cats as intelligence collection platforms The Wizards of Langley walks us down the corridors of Langley through the four decades of science and bureaucratic warfare, in which lives and careers were risked, that produced the CIA we have today. Based on original interviews and extensive archive research, Jeffrey Richelson sheds a piercing lamp on many of the Agency's least understood activities.

Norton Garfinkle, Daniel Yankielovich - Uniting Am erica, Restoring the Vital Center to American Demo cracy (2005).jpg

USA Books - Norton Garfinkle, Daniel Yankielovich - Uniting Americ...Restoring the Vital Center to American Democracy 2005.jpg
In Uniting America, some of the country’s most prominent social thinkers—among them Francis Fukuyama, Daniel Yankelovich, Amitai Etzioni, Alan Wolfe, Uwe Reinhardt, and Thomas E. Mann—reject the myth of polarization. On topics ranging from the war on terrorism, health care, economic policy, and Social Security to religion, diversity, and immigration, the authors argue that there are sensible, centrist solutions that are more in keeping with prevailing public sentiment and that would better serve the national interest. On issue after issue, the authors show how the conventional framing of the debate in Washington has misled Americans, creating a series of false dilemmas and forcing choices between two extremes—at the expense of more balanced and pragmatic policy solutions based on enduring American values.

Paul Tough - Whatever It Takes, Geoffrey Canada's Quest to Change Harlem and America (2009).jpg

USA Books - Paul Tough - Whatever It Takes, Geoffrey Canadas Quest to Change Harlem and America 2009.jpg
What would it take?
That was the question that Geoffrey Canada found himself asking. What would it take to change the lives of poor children—not one by one, through heroic interventions and occasional miracles, but in big numbers, and in a way that could be replicated nationwide? The question led him to create the Harlem Children’s Zone, a ninety-seven-block laboratory in central Harlem where he is testing new and sometimes controversial ideas about poverty in America. His conclusion: if you want poor kids to be able to compete with their middle-class peers, you need to change everything in their lives—their schools, their neighborhoods, even the child-rearing practices of their parents.
Whatever It Takes is a tour de force of reporting, an inspired portrait not only of Geoffrey Canada but of the parents and children in Harlem who are struggling to better their lives, often against great odds. Carefully researched and deeply affecting, this is a dispatch from inside the most daring and potentially transformative social experiment of our time.

USA Books - Cindy Weinstein - Family, Kinship, and Sympathy in Nineteenth-Century American Literature 2005.jpg
Cindy Weinstein radically revises our understanding of nineteenth-century sentimental literature. Arguing that these novels are far more complex than critics have suggested, Weinstein expands the archive of sentimental novels to include some of the more popular, though under-examined writers, and shows how canonical texts can take on new meaning when read in the context of these novels. She demonstrates the aesthetic and political complexities of this influential genre and its impact on Stowe, Twain and Melville.

Steven E. Woodworth - Cultures in Conflict, The Am erican Civil War (2000).jpg

USA Books - Steven E. Woodworth - Cultures in Conflict, The American Civil War 2000.jpg
The American Civil War was primarily a conflict of cultures, and slavery was the largest single cultural factor separating North and South. This collection of carefully selected memoirs, diaries, letters, and reminiscences of ordinary Northerners and Southerners who experienced the war as soldiers or civilians brings to life the conflict in culture, principles, attitudes, hopes, courage, and suffering of both sides. Woodworth, a Civil War historian, has selected a wide variety of moving first person accounts, each of which tells a story of a life as well as the attitudes of ordinary people and the real conditions of war and homefront. Woodworth presents the war in the words of those who lived it.

USA Books - John Roy Carlson - Under Cover, My Four Years in the Nazi Underworld of America 1943.jpg
UNDER COVER is not so much an expose of the work of alien Nazi or Fascist agents as it is, ultimately, a warning to America of those factors which have led to the development of a nativist, nationalist, American Nazi or American Fascist movement which, like a spearhead, is poised to stab at Democracy.

David Ngaruri Kenney, Philip G. Schrag - Asylum De nied, A Refugee's Struggle for Safety in America ( 2008).jpg

USA Books - David Ngaruri Kenney, Philip G. Schrag - Asylum Denied, A Refugees Struggle for Safety in America 2008.jpg
Asylum Denied is the gripping story of political refugee David Ngaruri Kenney's harrowing odyssey through the world of immigration processing in the United States. Kenney, while living in his native Kenya, led a boycott to protest his government's treatment of his fellow farmers. He was subsequently arrested and taken into the forest to be executed. This book, told by Kenney and his lawyer Philip G. Schrag from Kenney's own perspective, tells of his near-murder, imprisonment, and torture in Kenya; his remarkable escape to the United States; and the obstacle course of ordeals and proceedings he faced as U.S. government agencies sought to deport him to Kenya. A story of courage, love, perseverance, and legal strategy, Asylum Denied brings to life the human costs associated with our immigration laws and suggests reforms that are desperately needed to help other victims of human rights violations.

Christine Meisner Rosen - The Limits of Power, Gre at Fires and the Process of City Growth in America (1986).jpg

USA Books - Christine Meisner Rosen - The Limits of Power, Great F...t Fires and the Process of City Growth in America 1986.jpg
Chicago, Boston, and Baltimore all suffered terrible fires in the late nineteenth or early twentieth century. Residents of these cities agreed that the destruction caused by the fires provided them with a special opportunity to improve their inadequately built cities. This book examines these rebuildings, using each to examine in close detail the process of city growth. The massive population growth and economic expansion of the nineteenth century necessitated that every aspect of the urban environment be redeveloped. Yet, at virtually every stage of city growth, the achievement of environmental adaptation lagged significantly behind the need for change. The innovative features of this book will make it useful to all readers interested in city growth. By drawing on several fields of the social sciences, the author develops a conceptual framework for explaining the barriers to environmental improvement; and through the historical narrative, the usefulness of this framework is demonstrated.

Anna K. Jarstad, Timothy D. Sisk - From War to Dem ocracy, Dilemmas of Peacebuilding (2008).jpg

USA Books - Anna K. Jarstad, Timothy D. Sisk - From War to Democracy, Dilemmas of Peacebuilding 2008.jpg
Attempts to introduce democracy in the wake of civil war face a critical problem: how can war-torn societies move towards peace and democracy when competitive politics and hard-fought elections exacerbate social and political conflict? Through a study of six themes (peacekeeping, management of violence, power sharing, political party transformation, elections, civil society and international reactions to democratization crises) this volume considers the dilemmas that arise in pursuing peace after civil war through processes of democratization. The contributors' research highlights the complex relationship between democratization, which is competitive, and peacebuilding or efforts to achieve reconciliation. The book offers insights into more effective action in peacebuilding in light of the short-term negative effects that democratization can introduce. It is a thought-provoking work that seeks both to advance theory and to provide policy-relevant findings to facilitate more effective and durable transitions from war to democracy.

Gini Graham Scott - Homicide by the Rich and Famou s, A Century of Prominent Killers (2007).jpg

USA Books - Gini Graham Scott - Homicide by the Rich and Famous, A Century of Prominent Killers 2007.jpg
"Scott (an independent writer/researcher/consultant) examines 17 of the richest, most famous, and most bizarre murders to churn up the media in the last century. Here we find a sausage king who conceals the evidence in his next shipment and a playboy who shoots a rival in full view of the Gotham elite and buys his way in and out of a mental institution."–Reference & Research Book News

“An unsparing examination of the power of wealth and fame over justice that roasts American values over a brilliant flame of indignation.”–Marvin J. Wolf, author of Perfect Crimes

“Dr. Scott provides an organized, accessible collection of some of the most intriguing crime stories of elite American culture. Without resorting to sensational reporting, she nevertheless has penned a page-turner.”–Katherine Ramsland, Professor of Forensic Psychology, DeSales University author of The Criminal Mind and Inside the Minds of Mass Murderers

“Homicide by the Rich and Famous is an exciting read. Gini Scott is an excellent researcher...Reading this book will change people's reactions to crime news forever.”–Alma H. Bond, Ph.D., Psychoanalyst, faculty of Institute for Psychoanalytic Training and Research (IPTAR) and Writers School author of The Deadly Jigsaw Puzzle and Murder on the Streetcar

“Ms. Scott's book demonstrates that homicides are not just confined to the inner city or gang violence. No one is immune from this deadly violence or its consequences. It is often good "old fashioned police work" that brings these cases to justice.”–Peter Dunbar, Deputy Chief, Oakland Police Department
