Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A brilliant writer . . . an immensely likable police detective who takes every murder to heart.” —Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review Late one night, Guido Brunetti is called away from dinner to investigate the death of a widow in her modest apartment. Though there are some signs of a struggle, the medical examiner rules that she died of a heart attack. It seems there is nothing for Brunetti to investigate. But he can’t shake the feeling that something or someone may have triggered her heart attack, that perhaps the woman was threatened. Conversations with the woman’s son, her upstairs neighbor, and the nun in charge of the old age home where she volunteered do little to satisfy Brunetti’s nagging curiosity. And with the help of Inspector Vianello and the ever-resourceful Signorina Elettra, he intends to get to the truth. “One of her best . . . She has become a must-read for all those who favor character-driven crime stories.” —Booklist, starred review “[A] wickedly entertaining series.” —Publishers Weekly
Book Synopsis Drawing Conclusions by : Tracy Sugarman
Download or read book Drawing Conclusions written by Tracy Sugarman and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2008-02-11 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the apex of World War II, SU graduate Tracy Sugarman documented naval life before, during and after D-Day. He did not write for periodicals nor was he one of the daring photojournalists of the time. In an age of photography and motion picture, this artist used brush, ink, and pencil to forge his own distinctive brand of artistic journalism. Much as Winslow Homer had been sent by Harper’s Weekly to the front to capture images of the Civil War on canvas, so Sugarman’s drawings and paintings recorded one of the most momentous turns in the fortunes of World War II. After the war, Sugarman continued to visually record the passing scene. The result is a pictorial trove of powerful historic and societal events of the day: from civil rights uproar and transformation in the south to labor demonstration and space exploration, from commanding an invading craft on D-Day to revisiting Normandy in the wake of 9/11. Punctuated by the artist’s own words, Sugarman’s work offers a meaningful and thoughtful reflection upon turning points in the last critical century, and what it means to be an American. Rife with wisdom and humor yet brimming with rage over injustice, Sugarman’s singular artistry provides insights into our American psyche as well as into the artist’s life. Drawing Conclusions also shows that ink and pencil can record event with as much graphic potency as camera and film.

Book Synopsis Drawing Conclusions by : Patricia A. Dunn
Download or read book Drawing Conclusions written by Patricia A. Dunn and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing Conclusions explores the use of juxtaposed visual representations (JVRs) to help preservice teachers grapple with abstract concepts, theories, or complex controversies in education. Acting as both a learning tool and an intellectual spark, JVRs are two simple contrasted sketches that students produce on a divided sheet of paper. In these drawings, students attempt to visually represent contrasting ideas that the class is struggling to understand (such as code-meshing versus code-switching, descriptive versus prescriptive grammar, peer response versus peer editing). JVRs are powerful tools for the teacher education classroom because they employ active learning and scaffold pedagogical strategies, act as a low-stakes but important formative assessment tool, help students grapple with complex literary and critical theories, and aid in reorganizing and revising a long writing project. Book Features: Offers a method for pushing students to higher-order thinking in just a few minutes, helping them analyze critical concepts in English education, writing studies, linguistics, literacy, English Language Arts, and related fields. Outlines how to use JVRs to encourage students to think in a wider dimension, to use different parts of their brain, and to awaken different neurons. Provides multiple examples of JVRs to help instructors adapt this intellectually stimulating heuristic to their own classrooms.
