Paper Abstract:
Examines Cristology presented by the author. Position of Jesus in religious expreience.
Paper Introduction:
This research examines the Christology presented by James H. Cone in his book God of the Oppressed. The research will provide background information on the author and then discuss his account of the figure of Christ from the standpoint of positioning where Jesus stands in the cosmology of religion, the meaning that Jesus has for modern experience, and the particular Christological emphasis that Cone identifies as most appropriate in his work. The research will conclude with a critique and evaluation of Cone's work that will be intended to place his views in the context of modern Christian thought.
It may seem something of a tautology to assert that Christianity could be nothing without Christ, but the content of that statement is that Christ functions as a powerful symbol of both history and religion and that symbols are important to both relig

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of work exploring effects of Westernization and development on eight Asian nations & difference between the village & the city.
Paper Introduction:
Ian Buruma's God's Dust: A Modern Asian Journey is an exploration of the effects of Westernization and development on eight nations of Asia. Buruma uses the differences between "the village" and "the city" to symbolize the effects of Western development and progress (mainly in the city) on the native culture (mainly represented by the village). The basic question of the book is "What happens to people when the loyalties and traditions of the village break down and are replaced by the complexities of the modern world [as symbolized by the City]"? (xii). In general, Buruma believes that development, progress, and political change (especially change leading toward democracy) have had balanced results in these Asian nations. He writes of the despair of one Thai woman with respect to Westernization and the resultant "loss of traditional values, the destruction of the

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of author's experiences as Marine in Pacific in WWII.
Paper Introduction:
In Goodbye Darkness, William Manchester writes a memoir of his experiences in the Pacific in World War II. Manchester is a well-known historian and biographer who has written a number of popular books on these subjects. This book is more personal than most of his writings in that it describes his own experiences and provides a unique perspective on World War II and war in general. This book is not a nostalgic look back at an earlier time in the author's life, however, and Manchester evokes both the banal and the horrific sides of war equally in his narrative.
In terms of memory, Manchester is recalling incidents that he sees as having been decisive in his life, moments that changed him from a boy to a man and that left him with a very different perspective on life and the world. Manchester returns to the Pacific to look back on his life. He does this at a time when he

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on causes, effects & economic lessons of stock market crash.
Paper Introduction:
In his book The Great Crash 1929, John Kenneth Galbraith, a leading economist, examines the meaning of the stock market crash of 1929 which has become a persistent fear for Wall Street ever since. Recent downturns in the market were compared to the Great Crash, for instance, and many were watching to see if the protections put in place to stop this kind of crash would work and prevent a repeat. They did seem to work, and many believe that a crash such as occurred in 1929 is simply impossible given the current structure of the market and of governmental and other controls. Galbraith finds that what happened in 1929 was not an isolated action, however, and that earlier in history there had been other speculative splurges, beginning in 1637 when Dutch speculators invested in tulip bulbs. Galbraith also notes that we are now going through a similar period, but he makes no predi

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of work on stock market collapse & possibility of repeat crash.
Paper Introduction:
John Kenneth Galbraith, in The Great Crash: 1929, writes that his book has limitations: "The task of this book . . . is only to tell what happened in 1929. It is not to tell whether or when the misfortunes of 1929 will recur" (190). In the same passage, however, Galbraith makes clear the moral lesson of 1929 and of his book: "It is that very specific and personal misfortune awaits those who presume to believe that the future is revealed to them" (190). However, after having set forth these limitations, Galbraith goes on to speculate on the future:
. . . The chances for a recurrence of a speculative orgy are rather good. No one can doubt that the American people remain susceptible to the speculative mood---to the conviction that enterprise can be attended by unlimited rewards in which they,

Paper Abstract:
Critique of Jay Conrad Levinson's book on process of selling & buying in modern marketplace & its focus on long-term, customer-oriented business methods.
Paper Introduction:
This paper is a discussion of Jay Conrad Levinson's Guerrilla Marketing Excellence: The Fifty Golden Rules for Small-Business Success. Levinson continues to apply his concept of the "guerrilla mind" to questions of marketing; although this volume purports to be designed for small businesses, many of his rules are just as applicable to (and maybe more appropriate for) larger concerns. He begins by focusing on changing conventional thinking about marketing, then progresses through a series of steps aimed at doing business in a different kind of way than is often considered from a traditional sales-oriented marketing point of view. His guidelines, while breezily written and delivered in fifty bite-sized pieces, add up to an approach that focuses on long-term, customer-oriented ways of doing business, most of which make sense in an increasingly sophisticated,

Paper Abstract:
Critical analysis of work on major events & actors of WWI.
Paper Introduction:
This study will provide a critical analysis of Barbara W. Tuchman's The Guns of August. The study will include a view on the genre of the book; a summary of its contents, focusing on specific questions central to the author's portrayal of the major events and actors of World War I; and a personal opinion on the worth of the book.
Tuchman's book is an essentially historical study of World War I, but its power and lasting popularity are due to the excitement and immediacy the author brings to her work. She is meticulous with her footnoting, so that we have no doubt that she is in fact an historian and not a novelist, a "nonfiction novelist" or any other hybrid writer who includes fact and fiction in an inextricably intertwined conglomeration. As we read on the inside page of the back cover (in the Bantam

Paper Abstract:
(Lester Thurow). Reviews author's proposed industrial policy for a competitive U.S. in global economy.
Paper Introduction:
It is not morning in America; it is late afternoon. The United States is facing head-to-head in economic competition with the newly integrated Europe (centered on Germany) and Japan. According to Lester Thurow, America stands a good chance of coming in third in this race, unless we wake up quickly and adapt. The likely winner will be Europe. This research examines the economic theory and plan for action posited by Thurow in his work, Head to Head (1992).
The end of the Cold War left the United States as the world's only military superpower. But without a pause, the contest for world power has shifted from a military contest to an economic contest among the United States, Japan and Europe. This new economic contest is unlike rivalries of the past. Until recently, trade between nations was a win-win situation:

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of work on changing world order & economic showdown among U.S., Germany & Japan.
Paper Introduction:
Lester Thurow in his book Head to Head contributes to the many recent analyses of the international economic scene and especially of the competitiveness--or lack of competitiveness--seen in American industry when matched especially against Japan and West Germany (now simply Germany, though the capabilities of the reunited Germany have not yet been fully tested). Japan in particular has been held up by many as a country more efficient and more productive than the United States, and the image has been created of a major trade war between the U.S., Japan, and the emerging European Community. Thurow examines this "war" beginning with the idea that the U.S. is at a disadvantage and has to work to catch up to Japan and Germany in particular. Thurow does not take a pessimistic view of American chances, however, and feels that America can make the adjustments

Paper Abstract:
Portrays new economic realities for 21st Cent. & struggles among Japan, Europe & America for power.
Paper Introduction:
Lester Thurow's Head to Head: The Coming Economic Battle Among Japan, Europe and America attempts to define the realities of the global economic aftermath of the Cold War. The economic struggle of the world in the 1990s and beyond will be shaped by the conflicts and cooperation among the three major players, and the rules of the new struggle are far different than those which prevailed up to the 1980s.
Thurow writes that "Just as the fall of the Berlin Wall in November of 1989 marked the end of the old contest between capitalism and communism, so the integration of the European Common Market, on Jan. 1, 1993, will mark the beginning of a new economic contest in a new century at the start of the third millennium. At that moment, for the first time in more than a century, the United States will become the second largest economy

Paper Abstract:
(Vincent Bugliosi). Analyzes account of Manson Family from criminal justice perspective. Perpetrators, crimes, investigatory problems.
Paper Introduction:
This study will examine Vincent Bugliosi's Helter Skelter from the perspective of criminal justice. The study will include consideration of the primary characters in the Manson Family murders, the specific crimes committed, and, primarily, the problems of investigation encountered and, in fact, created by the investigators of those crimes.
The crimes covered in the book are seven murders committed on two nights in 1969 in Los Angeles by a band of young people headed by Charles Manson, a charismatic long-term criminal, although Manson himself did not participate in the actual slayings on August 9th and 10th of that year. In fact, this fact--that Manson commanded the young men and women to kill but did not himself participate in the actual killings--was a major problem for prosecutor and District Attorney Vincent Bugliosi:

Paper Abstract:
By Ralph Martin. Reviews work on John Kennedy's life & presidency, family, politics, place in history.
Paper Introduction:
Ralph G. Martin's A Hero For Our Time is subtitled "An Intimate Story of the Kennedy Years," yet it goes beyond the period of John F. Kennedy's (JFK) Congressional and Presidential years. This paper is a report on four different eras in Kennedy's life: His formative years, his inter-family relationships, his ascendance to power, and his great moments of both success and crisis while he was President.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in 1917 in Brookline, Massachusetts, and he graduated from Harvard in 1940. As the son of Joseph and Rose Kennedy, JFK was groomed for achievement from an early age. The elder Joseph saw in his sons a way in which he might exert great political influence. He himself had been ambassador to England and a millionaire, but he had higher goals: the Presidency of the United States.

Paper Introduction:
Resurrecting Victims of Family Violence: Lessons from the Past
To many people today, the term “family violence” naturally conjures up images of brutality against spouses and children that occurs within the family setting. However, in Heroes of Their Own Lives: The Politics and History of Family Violence, Linda Gordon challenges this perception by demonstrating that the term “family violence” is a dynamic concept that alters throughout history. According to Gordon, family violence “has been historically and politically constructed,” dependent upon the prevalent perceptions of the times and the power struggle that occurs within the family in response to its environment (2-3).
Throughout the book, Gordon successfully illustrates how the changing perceptions of the times exerted an impact on the w

Paper Introduction:
In his book, Hidden Order: The Economics of Everyday Life, David Friedman works to bring a basic understanding of the complex world of economics within the grasp of the average person. The book begins with an overview (Sections I and II) of economic theory. By the end of Section III, most of the tools are in place for the reader to begin making informed connections between economic theory and occurrences in today’s environment.
Section 1: Economics for Pleasure and Profit
Friedman discusses value as it relates to economics and our motivations for spending money. Value has a different connotation for each consumer, but according to Friedman, it is consistently the value we judge something (material or otherwise) to be worth and as revealed by our actions (17). Actions reveal preference. Akin to value is the concept of choice as well as the m

(Carl Boyer). Reviews work on evolution & philosophy of this mathematical discipline.
Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to examine The History of Calculus by Carl B. Boyer. The plan of the research will be to set forth the general ideas in the book, and then to explore details contained in the book that summarize the concepts of calculus that Boyer wants to emphasize.
Boyer's The History of the Calculus is put forward as one of the few histories of how the discipline of calculus evolved, apart from an explanation of how to use it mathematically. It is by positioning the ideas of mathematics and philosophy that influenced calculus that Boyer gradually moves toward an explanation of how calculus can actually be used and applied. The background of Boyer's approach appears to be the idea that a richer understanding of how calculus came to "be" in the world of ideas can lead to an understanding of how it can be employed in

Reviews work aimed at helping small investor buy wisely, understand stock reports & know when to sell.
Paper Introduction:
For most people, the stock market is a mysterious financial institution that still has a profound effect on their lives. among the puzzling aspects of the stock market are why good economic times produce jitters on the market while bad economic news often means improved buying on the market. The huge drops that have taken place twice in the past decade may also puzzle many people and in any case create concern on the part of the public about what may be happening to the economy. William J. O'Neil has written a book that examines the stock market from a more practical point of view in order to offer advice to the average citizen about how to invest, how to understand stock reports, and how to tell when to sell. The intent of the book is to help the small investor make money, and to this end the author has created a simple system and ways for the individual to

Paper Introduction:
Masters' and Johnson's Human Sexual Inadequacy is a cumulative descriptive account of the operation of the clinic for the treatment of human sexual dysfunction at the Washington University School of Medicine since 1959 and its continuation at the Reproductive Biology Research Foundation after 1964. The authors report in detail on the development of their therapeutic format and then discuss the evolution of therapeutic approaches to a dozen of the major types of sexual dysfunction presented by patients. Both parts of the book are written in a direct, clinical--but forcefully clear--manner that is free of therapeutic jargon. This makes the volume as much an invaluable handbook as an introductory text. It is also, however, an important historical document since it is a record of the emergence of the original, and the most influential, model for

Paper Abstract:
Critical review of self-help work based on action, self-empowerment, confidence, desire for success.
Paper Introduction:
The purpose of this research is to examine I Can I Will by Frederick G. Elias. The plan of the research will be to set forth the pattern of ideas in the book and then to discuss how the ideas are developed and how they build to a prescription for seizing and maintaining control of life experience.
IC is a book that must be classified as a self-help manual with an orientation toward both material and psychological success. Indeed, it is not too much to say that the overriding objective of the book is to formulate a plan for what could be called self-actualization. That is because of the action orientation of the text, which offers specific advice about how to achieve personal power and to apply the feelings of power to the project of achieving specific goals. Elias frames this advice in terms of imputing creativity and potential to the reader with a vie

In ancient Greek mythology, Icarus had wings of feathers held together by wax which enabled him to fly. Entranced with his newfound ability, Icarus ignored his father's warnings and soared ever higher. His wings eventually melted and he fell into the sea and drowned. In his book The Icarus Paradox, Danny Miller suggests that a similar fate can befall highly successful companies: confident in their positions of market dominance or their own exceptional management, these companies can falter and fail, victims of their own success. This research examines Miller's work in detail and considers its relevance for practicing managers as well as for students of management.

Miller suggests that companies which enjoy high levels of

Paper Abstract:
Chapter-by-chapter summary of work arguing against universities' bending to minority group pressures. (Primarily Chapter 8).
Paper Introduction:
This study will provide a summary of Dinesh D'Souza's Illiberal Education: The Politics of Race and Sex on Campus, with a major focus on Chapter 8, "Illiberal Education." The book is the author's argument against the tendency of American universities to bend their policies and practices to fit the "politically correct" pressures of minority groups. D'Souza argues that such pressure groups and university officials who bend to that pressure are destroying the very foundation on which the liberal principles of higher learning depend. He is pessimistic about any meaningful change in the near-future which would alter this "illiberal" trend.
Chapter 1, "The Victim's Revolution on Campus," the author declares that he is sympathetic to the struggle of minority students for equality and justice, being a first-generation

Paper Abstract:
Examines authors' views on cancer from psychological & sociological perspectives.
Paper Introduction:
Cancer: A Cultural Perspective
Diseases which have uncertain causes and ineffectual treatments tend to become the focus of society's deepest dreads and weaknesses. Such diseases often take on moralistic and metaphoric associations, filling psychological and sociological needs for the individuals and groups in which they occur. Two writers, Susan Sontag and James T. Patterson, discuss these psychological and sociological concepts in relation to cancer in their respective books, Illness as Metaphor and The Dread Disease: Cancer and Modern American Culture. It is the purpose of this paper to analyze these two books, focusing mainly on the psychological and sociological aspects of cancer.
Ms. Sontag discusses the disease of cancer as a metaphor for the society, as her book title suggests. She strenuously rejects

Paper Abstract:
(Gareth Morgan). Summarizes work, focusing on organization as metaphor (machine, organism, political system, etc.).
Paper Introduction:
The study will provide a summary of Gareth Morgan's Images of Organization, focusing on the ways the ideas in the book relate to public organization theory and what the book is trying to say about the cultures of various organizations.
It is a generally accepted maxim that the realm of organization theory --- public and private---is a very fluid one, one which is at times quite disorderly. This is due to the fact that the theory presented must deal with human behavior in highly complex situations, in which both individual and group motivations and needs are at play. It is not a precise field, in other words, and no single theory can make the realm of organizations clear and understandable.
Morgan immediately makes the preceding points clear in his book. He notes first that "Effective managers and professionals

Paper Abstract:
Reviews work on development of nationalism & its role in international relations.
Paper Introduction:
Benedict Anderson in his book Imagined Communities examines the issue of nationalism and how it developed, as well as how it operates in international relations to this day. This is a revision of an earlier edition, and the author notes how he has changed his approach and what he wants to accomplish with this book in the light of certain international events as well as after the application of certain new and developing ideas from historical, literary, anthropological, sociological, feminist, and other studies linking the objects of these fields of inquiry to nationalism and nation. He finds that it is beyond his means to adapt the work to these changes, so what he has tried to do instead is correct errors of fact and interpretation from the earlier edition.
Anderson is trained as a specialist on Southeast Asia, which
