Kamasutra but not 5 star
Some of the positions look just the same as others with slight differences, but if you read the descriptions, they really are different enough to be very significant.

The Cosmopolitan
Donna Stonecipher

Coffee House Press, 2008

A National Poetry Series winner, chosen by John Yau These poems spin tales of traveling in a world both romantic and politicized, a world miniaturized by globalization and haunted by the figure of the cosmopolitan, who is aware of its saturated history, yet inspired by the knowledge that nostalgia is merely "memory decayed to sugar." In the kingdom of Donna Stonecipher's imagination, "a story is always forming to adorn reality," and the fall ...

Cosmopolitan: A Bartender's Life

Toby Cecchini

Broadway, 2004

This was a great read -- don't trust the naysayers.
I can tell you first hand that tending a bar only LOOKS like it might be fun. Cecchini brilliantly articulates why I hated bartending in a poignant page and a half. I read each and every bad review of this book here but I read it anyway and I can also tell you that all of the criticisms can be safely dismissed out of hand. Dictionaries are full of "$10,000 words" and -- in case you've never ...

Donna D. McCreary

Lincoln Presentations, 2008

Despite a common belief that Abraham Lincoln had little or no interest in food, research shows that he actually did have many favorite foods. Family stories, observations of his friends, and White House menus indicate those favorites - many of which he had enjoyed since his childhood. Survival in the Kentucky and Indiana wilderness where Lincoln grew to adulthood depended in great part on good nutrition, and young Abraham was fortunate to be ...

Rand Mcnally, 1990

Where to buy the Histomap
The histomap is a wonderful product, well worth having. If you've been looking for it, but cannot find it anywhere, you should check out the North American Montessori Teachers Association site. They have an authorized reprint available for a reasonable price. I wish Amazon had it, but at least you can get it someplace. (if you need a link, you can email me)

The Global Commonwealth of Citizens: Toward Cosmopolitan Democracy

It's So French!: Hollywood, Paris, and the Making of Cosmopolitan Film Culture

3 reviews
Vanessa R. Schwartz

University Of Chicago Press, 2007

It's so smart -- and so original
Vanessa Schwartz's book opens with an amazing Look magazine cover from 1958: "Ike's Tragedy" on one side, "Brigitte Bardot conquers America" on the other. Historians have been teaching that this was the era when American popular culture conquered Europe and the world. But Schwartz shows that "Frenchness" became a crucial part of global film culture after WWII. The book is essential reading for ...

Cosmopolitan Vision
Ulrich Beck, Ciaran Cronin

Polity, 2006

In this new book, Ulrich Beck develops his now widely used concepts of second modernity, risk society and reflexive sociology into a radical new sociological analysis of the cosmopolitan implications of globalization. Beck draws extensively on empirical and theoretical analyses of such phenomena as migration, war and terror, as well as a range of literary and historical works, to weave a rich discursive web in which analytical, critical and ...

Cosmopolitan Style: Modernism Beyond the Nation
Rebecca L. Walkowitz

Columbia University Press, 2007

In this broad-ranging and ambitious intervention in the debates over the politics, ethics, and aesthetics of cosmopolitanism, Rebecca L. Walkowitz argues that modernist literary style has been crucial to new ways of thinking and acting beyond the nation. While she focuses on modernist narrative, Walkowitz suggests that style conceived expansively as attitude, stance, posture, and consciousness helps to explain many other, nonliterary formations ...
