An international and historical look at how parenting choices change in the face of economic inequality
Parents everywhere want their children to be happy and do well. Yet how parents seek to achieve this ambition varies enormously. For instance, American and Chinese parents are increasingly authoritative and authoritarian, whereas Scandinavian parents tend to be more permissive. Why? Love, Money, and Parenting investigates how economic forces and growing inequality shape how parents raise their children. From medieval times to the present, and from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Sweden to China and Japan, Matthias Doepke and Fabrizio Zilibotti look at how economic incentives and constraints--such as money, knowledge, and time--influence parenting practices and what is considered good parenting in different countries.
Through personal anecdotes and original research, Doepke and Zilibotti show that in countries with increasing economic inequality, such as the United States, parents push harder to ensure their children have a path to security and success. Economics has transformed the hands-off parenting of the 1960s and '70s into frantic, overscheduled activity. Growing inequality has also resulted in an increasing "parenting gap" between richer and poorer families, raising the disturbing prospect of diminished social mobility and fewer opportunities for children from certain backgrounds. In nations with less economic inequality, such as Sweden, the stakes are less high, and social mobility is not under threat. Doepke and Zilibotti discuss how investments in early childhood development and the design of education systems factor into the parenting equation, and how economics can help shape policies that will contribute to the ideal of equal opportunity for all.
Love, Money, and Parenting presents an engrossing look at the economics of the family in the modern world.

Discover astronomy, from the planets of our solar system to the vast Milky Way.
Our bright sun keeps us warm.
But it is also a star, like the stars in the night sky.
The planets orbit the sun. Each one is different.
Some are small and hot. Others are icy giants.
There is so much more to the universe than what's here on earth! Let these adorably illustrated astronomers introduce your readers to the sun, moons, and planets. Then take a peek at the Milky Way galaxy! Seamless art, dovetailed with clear and bold text, introduces these complex concepts using friendly language that will ignite a spark of passion in future scientists and explorers.
This board book by Alex Fabrizio and Kat Uno is an essential STEAM addition to a teacher's classroom, a bookshelf of a toddler's library, and a guardian's collection.
From Starry Forest Books, Baby's Big World introduces babies to big concepts--everything from rocket science to music--for the very first time.

Описание: This volume looks at hospitals in the post-medieval Indo-Iranian world from various perspectives. During the Safavid-Mughal periods hospitals were still tied to Avicennian medicine. However, in Qajar Iran and British India hospitals became important instruments for the spread of modern Western medicine. The papers in this volume present a significant panorama on the history of medicine and medical institutions in Iran and India during the early modern and the modern periods. The portrait that emerges is not homogeneous, but instead shows ambivalent and contrasting images. Hospitals can be seen as powerful symbols of the Muslim scientific civilization and then of modern medicine, nevertheless, they remained institutions relegated to the fringes of society - regarded with suspicion and usually reserved for the poor. Contributors include: Cristiana Bastos, Willem Floor, Claudia Preckel, Omid Rezai, Fabrizio Speziale, Hasan Tadjbakhsh, Anna Vanzan
This book is copublished with the Institut Fran ais de Recherche en Iran (IFRI) as no. 74 in the Biblioth que Iranienne series.
Le pr sent ouvrage propose un panorama significatif d' tudes portant sur l'histoire et le r le des h pitaux dans le monde irano-indien au cours de la premi re modernit et de l' poque moderne. Les contributions rassembl es dans ce volume tudient l'h pital depuis plusieurs perspectives, examinant cet tablissement tant t comme une institution scientifique, tant t en fonction de son utilit sociale. Ce qui merge de ces travaux ne constitue pas un portrait homog ne, mais plut t une image ambivalente et contrast e de ces tablissements. Les h pitaux peuvent tre vus comme des symboles puissants de la pi t des souverains musulmans, ou de la civilisation scientifique musulmane, puis du triomphe de la science occidentale moderne. Cependant, pour une tr s longue p riode, l'h pital demeure une institution rel gu e la marge de la soci t , regard e avec suspicion et en particulier r serv e aux indigents.

Описание: If a history of Russian-Jewish literature in the twentieth century were ever to be written, it would reveal a number of puzzling gaps. One is Andrei Sobol, a truly significant writer who has not received due scholarly attention. It is this scholarly gap that has led Vladimir Khazan to write this volume, a comprehensive and exhaustive account of Sobol`s public, literary, and artistic activities.
This volume examines notions of health and illness in North Indian devotional culture, with particular attention paid to the worship of the goddess Sitala, the Cold Lady. Consistently portrayed in colonial and postcolonial literature as the ambiguous 'smallpox goddess', Sitala is here discussed as a protector of children and women, a portrayal that emerges from textual sources as well as material culture.
The eradication of smallpox did not pose a threat to Sitala and her worship. She continues to be an extremely popular goddess. Religion, Devotion and Medicine in North India critically examines the rise and affirmation of the 'smallpox myth' in India and beyond, and explains how Indian narratives, ritual texts and devotional songs have celebrated Sitala as a loving mother who protects her children from the effects, and the fear, of poxes, fevers and infantile disorders but also all sorts of new threats (such as global pandemics, addictions and environmental catastrophes). The book explores a wide range of ritual and devotional practices, including scheduled festivals, songs, vows, pageants, austerities, possession, animal sacrifices and various forms of offering.
Built on extensive fieldwork and a close textual analysis of sources in Sanskrit and vernacular languages (Hindi, Bhojpuri and Bengali) as well as on a rich bibliography on the struggle against smallpox in colonial and post-colonial India, the book reflects on the ambiguous nature of Sitala as a phenomenon largely dependent on the enduring fascination with the exotic, and the horrific, that has pervaded public renditions of Indian culture in indigenous fiction, colonial reports, medical literature and now global culture.
To aid study, the volume includes images, web links, appendixes and a filmography.

Описание: The National Bolshevik Party, founded in the mid-1990s by Eduard Limonov and Aleksandr Dugin, began as an attempt to combine radically different ideologies. In the years that followed, Limonov, Dugin, and the movements they led underwent dramatic shifts. The two leaders eventually became political adversaries, with Dugin and his organizations strongly supporting Putin's regime while Limonov and his groups became part of the liberal opposition. To illuminate the role of these right-wing ideas in contemporary Russian society, Fabrizio Fenghi examines the public pronouncements and aesthetics of this influential movement. He analyzes a diverse range of media, including novels, art exhibitions, performances, seminars, punk rock concerts, and even protest actions. His interviews with key figures reveal an attempt to create an alternative intellectual class, or a "counter-intelligensia." This volume shows how certain forms of art can transform into political action through the creation of new languages, institutions, and modes of collective participation.

Описание: Joachim lives in a huge metropolis, in London, today. A few years ago, he lived in another world... a very small village in Southern Spain. The place where he was born and raised. Two different worlds, nothing strange. The strange thing is that Joachim, today, feels like an alien in both of them. Why? He still loves to do something that most of the people, including his best friends, don't do anymore, in both of the worlds. A simple human habit in danger of extinction. He misses this something so much... that he is, almost, losing the hope to be able to do it again on this planet. He misses this something so much... that he almost convinces himself that he has new friends, new best friends, not real ones, who replaced those of flesh and blood. Will anyone understand him? Will someone help him save the ""human"" world? Who will comfort him? His best friends...?
