Dress became a testing ground for masculine ideals in Renaissance Italy. With the establishment of the ducal regime in Florence in 1530, there was increasing debate about how to be a nobleman. Was fashionable clothing a sign of magnificence or a source of mockery? Was the graceful courtier virile or effeminate? How could a man dress for court without bankrupting himself? This book explores the whole story of clothing, from the tailor's workshop to spectacular court festivities, to show how the male nobility in one of Italy's main textile production centers used their appearances to project social, sexual, and professional identities.
Sixteenth-century male fashion is often associated with swagger and ostentation but this book shows that Florentine clothing reflected manhood at a much deeper level, communicating a very Italian spectrum of male virtues and vices, from honor, courage, and restraint to luxury and excess. Situating dress at the heart of identity formation, Currie traces these codes through an array of sources, including unpublished archival records, surviving garments, portraiture, poetry, and personal correspondence between the Medici and their courtiers. Addressing important themes such as gender, politics, and consumption, Fashion and Masculinity in Renaissance Florence sheds fresh light on the sartorial culture of the Florentine court and Italy as a whole.

Archangel Squadron faces off against the forces of the brutal Protectorate to claim a prize, and save humanity, in a gripping novel of deep space jeopardy by the author of the Odyssey One series.
At the helm of a commandeered freighter, Captain Steph Michaels has infiltrated the Free Star systems. Leading a captive crew, and posing as a privateer, he's on a mission to seize a precious resource from an enemy outpost. Backed by his Archangel Squadron, it's a smash-and-grab operation he can pull off in his sleep. Until it isn't.
Before he and his "pirates" can strike, they're met with an unexpected obstacle. The mining compound they're targeting also houses camps of slave laboring families. It's an innocent population Steph refuses to sacrifice as collateral damage, and his morality will drive him to greater extremes than ever before. With a ruthless enemy commander facing them down, Steph will find himself in conflict with not just the Free Stars but potentially with the Empire itself.
The odds of victory? Impossible to foretell.

In news coverage, I often hear "Wall Street" and "Main Street" mentioned. But what about rural roads, side streets and back streets? When America's economy is good, is it good for every American? What does Globalization, which increases profits tremendously for America's privileged special interests, do for the loyal, dedicated American workers who were displaced by Globalization? Did displaced American workers send the jobs they worked at so hard for meager wages to Third-World-Country sweat-shops, or their employers, who wanted even cheaper labor?
Are displaced American workers lazy "entitlement seekers," or forced into receiving public assistance for survival? Will at least some American employers hire displaced American workers, when illegal foreign workers are available for pennies-on-the-dollar under-the-table wages? When the American economy is good, is it as good for displaced workers as it is for special interests exploiting cheap foreign labor and American markets simultaneously? Is it as good for the victims of now legal "loan-sharking" as it is for predatory lenders? Is it as good for the addicted victims of the now legal "numbers racket" as it is for the lottery operators?
Above all, why are American workers yet to be displaced by Globalization and/or technological innovation, so easily led to resent and criticize American workers already displaced? "Take our nation back?" "Make America great again?" Back to what? What was great about the redefined "Jim Crow" slavery that lasted more than a century after legal slavery was abolished? What was so great about the blatant racial discrimination pathetically ignorant Caucasians so enjoyed seeing used against minorities, that they could not see the sociopolitical discrimination they faced themselves?
Those old enough may remember that Dragnet's Sargent Friday changed the names to protect the innocent. In Educated Hands, I have changed the names to keep from embarrassing the descendants of the guilty. I lived my childhood and young adult years in a not-so-great America that I do not care to go back to. I watched TV news as flag-draped coffins were unloaded daily, as members of the military industrial complex, who did not serve in our military counted their profits. I saw workers devote their lives to American corporations that abandoned them and our nation for the cheap labor, lax safety and environmental regulations and tax loopholes of Third-World-Countries.
Save one instance in which I incorporated literary license, Educated Hands is a collection of variations of actual happenings that reveal the progress most American citizens have made, yet identify the negativity some people want to "take us back" to. Am I un-American or non-patriotic because I dare speak truth to power? I truly appreciate the American ideal, and I will fully appreciate the American reality, when all victims of special interest exploitation can fully enjoy the American Dream.
Is dating and relationships the same now as it was in 1866 or 1900 or 1955? No. Dating rituals in the 21st Century are far different than the dating rituals of the 19th Century or 20th Century. Women's behavior toward men is much different than 70+ years ago, and so is men's behavior toward women.
Do men want a female companion who is prudish or one who is free-spirited and kinky?
Do men want a female companion who is monogamy-oriented or one who is promiscuous and/or polyamorous?
Which is more important to women ... a man's sexual prowess? A man's personality and general behavior? A man's level of education, career success, and wealth? Other?
Why do men cheat on their long-term girlfriend or wife even when the woman in his life if faithfully monogamous to him, is a good mother to his children, and generally treats him like he is a King?
Why do women cheat on their long-term boyfriend or husband even when the man in her life provides her with a high quality lifestyle, is a good father to her children, and is faithfully monogamous to her?
Why are so many men and women who are 30 years of age or older avoiding marriage in today's society?
These are the questions that are answered in Author Alan Roger Currie's fourth paperback titled, "The Beta Male Revolution: Why Many Men Have Totally Lost Interest in Marriage in Today's Society"
If you are like many men and women in society who often feel confused and/or frustrated by the seemingly inconsistent, contradictory, dishonest, disingenuous, sexually duplicitous, and highly manipulative behavior exhibited by many members of the opposite sex, this book is definitely for you.
You are guaranteed to have a better understanding of the manner in which the mind of the opposite sex works, and why men and women gravitate toward the type of romantic companions and sexual companions that they do after reading this book. This book will be talked about for years to come.
