Methods Books For Purchase in UMSLBS (Proper Use of These Items

Will Raise Grades by 40%)

We all suffer from the slip of the tongue sometimes in the use of the wrong verb in the spoken language (i.e. the conjugation of verbs in our heads) and in the written language of our letters, book reports, and research papers, e.g. “I should have went instead of I should have gone; or I should have came instead of I should have come. I should have began instead of I should have begun,” and so on, SUCH AS THE VERB TO SHOW AND ITS FORMS.

One may improve upon this issue by purchasing one of the following books and carry it around at all times for consultation. Selfcorrections will lead to more confidence and proper recitation responses in classes and in the writing of letters, term papers, and better performances in job interviews!

Book Report Reading List ( HISTORY, SOCIETY AND CULTURE )

History Plus History of Science

(***President-Elect Barack Obama Reads :

Steve Coll, Ghost Wars, on Afghanistan (no one has governed this country and region throughout history; just asked Alexander The

Great in BCE times.)

Jeffrey D. Sachs, Common Wealth: Economics for a Crowded Planet, on global warning, environmental destruction, extreme poverty

(****General Reading: Nepotism, Evolutionary Biology,

"Tribalism," Genetics and Generation Regression (the family telephone number becomes inverted though the same number):

(2) Adam Bellow, In Praise of Nepotism: A History of Family

(3) Robin Fox, "Civilization and the Savage Mind" (forthcoming) and see his other books on anthropology, e.g. Kinship and

Marriage )

“The Historian and the Twentieth Century,” DÆDALUS. (Spring

1971); undated essays on history.

General Reading:

Wallbank, T. Walter and Alastair M. Taylor and Nels M. Bailkey,

Civilization Past and Present (Chicago: Scott, Foresman And

Company,[1942],1962). I was taught from this “Civilization” text

7 in 1955/56 as an undergraduate student at Kentucky State College

(University in 1972). Note Historiography or the changing perspectives on history and how our mindsets can be effected by history: In this text, Egypt appears in chapter 1 as not part of

Africa but as belonging to “The Ancient Near East” and to Western

Civilization. Africa appears on pages 353-359 in the middle of this vast book as “Africa: The Neglected Continent, Obstacles to progress, ‘Primitive’ cultures of Black Africa,’ and the ignominious ‘Africa’s contact with the ancient world,’” etc.

Adjust your seat belts, we do not teach this way any more about

Africa anywhere in the world . The teaching of African history has dismantled these stereotypes in global history. See:

(1) "Black Pharoahs," National Geographic, February 2008, Vol.

213 No.2:P.34-

In order to see how African history dismantled university narratives and altered our vision in Western Civilization (e.g.

William H. McNeill, The Rise of the West, 1963), see next

(1) Steven Feierman, Chapter 2, Africa in History: The End of

Universal Narratives, In Gyan Prakash, ed., After Colonialism:

Imperial History And PostColonial Displacements (Princeton
