The Stories We Tell
Poor, old, American history survey course—the Charlie Brown of history curricula! Is it time to retire this unfavored course, or can it be repurposed for useful service? Every sentient person has a beef with the survey. Pedagogical reformers say the course's fixation with “coverage” has produced the most futile design for learning since the invention of dunce caps. Culture warriors don't see it that way. They believe American history courses work…
Saving and Spending
Monetization, which describes the process whereby money became the dominant means of exchange in developing commercial societies, is an economic development whose profound social, political, and cultural consequences are not yet well understood.

Once there was a golden age of American thrift, when citizens lived sensibly within their means and worked hard to stay out of debt. The growing availability of credit in this century, however, has brought those days to an end--undermining traditional moral virtues such as prudence, diligence, and the delay of gratification while encouraging reckless consumerism. Or so we commonly believe. In this engaging and thought-provoking book, Lendol Calde…
