Reviews
This stimulating book provides a major new interpretation of the alliance between egalitarian social movements and partisan politics to achieve some of the most notable liberal victories in the American past. Sean Wilentz has done more than anyone else to blend social and political history in a manner that offers powerful new insights., A bracing and persuasive defense of political partisanship as essential to a functioning democracy, and a timely reminder that from the country's earliest days, political struggle has been the most effective mechanism for moving America toward the egalitarian ideals enunciated in its founding documents. It is a message that American citizens should never forget., Sean Wilentz is a rare historian who writes with confidence about the entire scope of American history and who does so in a way accessible to a broad reading public. The Politicians & the Egalitarians, like his previous books, is sure to command attention., Engrossing and deeply enriching...Wilentz the historian is visiting the past to send a message to those of us who live in the 21st century., Bannink's Post Traumatic Success is a landmark work, and in my mind the most important book on treating trauma and post traumatic stress disorder in the last 20 years. The book offers a paradigm shift: From thinking about treatment as amelioration of the symptoms by focusing on the trauma -- which isn't always successful and can be a slow, painful process -- to focusing on exceptions, strengths and resiliencies so that clients may thrive. Integrating current research in positive psychology and solution-focused brief therapy, the book offers concrete and specific interventions that can be used immediately in clinical practice. I highly recommend this book for new and seasoned therapists alike., Wilentz evinces a vast knowledge of the American past while exploring, in his unique way, the interplay between raw party politics and the ebb and flow of reform efforts. In offering his take on pivotal figures from Jefferson to Du Bois, Lincoln to LBJ, Wilentz challenges us to debate history and ideas in a way that honors the best of the democratic system he has written about so provocatively throughout his career. Even when I most disagree with him, his arguments are always vigorous and passionate, lively and engaging., A shrewd and engaging assessment of the variable American tradition of egalitarianism, particularly as manifested in the political lives of Thomas Jefferson, John Quincy Adams, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, right up through Lyndon Johnson and his Great Society--scrupulously detailed, elegantly written, incisively argued, and effectively combative.

Item is just as described and in pristine condition. Packaged extremely well. Thank you!! I would buy from the seller again. But be aware, processing and shipping is a lengthy process and you aren’t likely to get your item in under a week. But did arrive in the stated delivery window. Now, knowing that it will take time to arrive, this book was so clean and nice, I will buy from the seller again. Patience is a good skill to cultivate.
