Education and the City
Author: Gerald Grace
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135668760
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
City schools, especially those attended by working class and ethnic minority pupils are teh catalysts of many significant issues in educational debate and policy making. They bring into sharp focus questions to do with class, gender and race relations in education; concepts of equality of opportunity and of social justice; and controversies about the wider political economic and social context of mass schooling. America, Western Europe and Australia have all taken a keen interest in the problems of urban schooling. The contributors to this collection of original essays all share a concern about these problems, although they approach them from a wide range of theoretical and ideological positions. Gerald Grace and his contributors criticis the current limitations of urban education as a field of study and they present a foundation for a more historically located and critically informed inquiry into problems, conflicts and contradictions in urban schooling. Part I presents contributions on theories of the urban. Part II focuses upon the history of urban education both in Britain and the USA. Part III discusses contemporary policy and practice with essays relating to education in inner city London and in New York City. This book was first published in 1984.

Satellite City
Author: Mack Reynolds
Publisher: Gateway

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
The most expensive, the most luxurious resort in the history of man. Where no request, no whim or pleasure, was denied. Where anything was possible - for a price. SATELLITE CITY The haven and the playground of only the very rich and the most powerful. It was the most amazing pleasure complex ever built - and it looked down on the Earth from an orbit 22,000 miles high. Yet, for all its glitter, there was something ominous about Satellite City - no nation or international body had any jurisdiction there, it was a law unto itself; no one knew who owned it; or what went on within its secret council rooms. Until one man penetrated the wall of secrecy and discovered satellite city's hidden masters.

Going beyond even these fantastic garagemahals, this book also takes readers inside select company garages for exclusive looks at the unique and important collections amassed by companies such as General Motors and Roush Industries (parent company to Roush Racing, owned by Jack Roush).

The Meister of Decimen City
Author: Brenna Raney
Publisher: CamCat Publishing, LLC
ISBN: 0744307732
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 448
Book Description
No one cares that you cured cancer if you also cloned a horde of dinosaurs and let them rampage down the street. Supergenius and quasi-villain Rex normally can’t go a week without accidentally endangering Decimen City with her science shenanigans. It’s been two weeks since her genetically engineered dinosaurs rampaged through town—a good streak for her—but the peace is broken when actual villain Last Dance sets his sights on Decimen. And he wants Rex’s help. Before Rex can say “I didn’t do it,” superheroes who’ve dragged her to jail on her worst days are crowding her lab to conscript her into quasi-herodom. Rex would rather stay out of it and deal with the dinosaurs that keep calling her Mom, but she can’t ignore that she was somewhat responsible for Last Dance’s villainy. She’d kept a very disorganized lab. And he was such a nosy brother. She failed to help him back then, but maybe if she stops him now—and keeps the heroes fooled—she can finally set things right.
