From the preface, "Considering the great interest in modern poetry, and the variou anthologies covering the period, one is struck by two oustanding facts-- first, the similarity of most compilations of contemporary verse and second, the neglect (and, in many cases, the disparegement) of the poetry of the immediate past. For some time th editor has thought of a volume which would answer both of these objections. The result is this comparative collection, which hopes to bring to light first, a number of the fully representative poems of the period, and second, to provide not merely a background to contemporary verse but an equally satisfying record of the poetry which preceded it.

Entrepreneurship in schools means bypassing elephantine bureaucracies to focus on the place where the educational product is actually delivered: the school. In Boston a school offers evening classes to students who have to work days: one in Georgia intimately involves parents in their children's classwork: in the Bronx a dedicated principal has to keep his innovations a secret from the central board of education. We see how schools can make themselves part of the computer revolution, how they can free themselves of the tyranny of the traditional school year, how educators can be held responsible for their failures and be properly rewarded for their successes. Above all, we see proof positive of how hope can be born where none now seems to exist, how learning can take place where there is now an educational wasteland, how the children who are our nation's future can gain the tools that make that future strong and bright.

After Ludwig von Mises's death in 1973, his wife, Margit von Mises, went through his unpublished and out-of-print essays and selected twenty-one of the essays for publication. The result was Money, Method, and the Market Process, published in 1990 by Kluwer Academic Publishers and the Ludwig von Mises Institute and reissued now by Liberty Fund. In his introduction to the book, Richard Ebeling describes it as a "convenient composite of Misesian economics.'" He says that the essays here touch on "almost every aspect of economic and social theory that Mises considered of paramount importance. The essays were written over a period of forty years, from the 1930s to the 1960s, so they serve as a wide sampling of Mises's thought on a wide range of subjects, and they are arranged thematically. The three essays in the first section, on "Method," discuss the differences between the social and natural sciences and include some of Mises's thoughts on the science of human action. The essays in the next section, on "Money," discuss inflation and money in economic exchange, and they include Mises's analysis of why stabilizing the price level will not necessarily stabilize economic activity. This leads readers to the section on "Trade," where Mises warns of the danger of international conflict in a world without free trade. There are seven essays on "Comparative Economic Systems," and they include detailed studies on capitalism versus socialism, the cooperative movement, the Russian Reform Movement, and equality and inequality. Under the heading of "Ideas," the final two essays are "The Role of Doctrines in Human History" and the well-known piece called "The Idea of Liberty Is Western". --
