Focusing on the establishment of a unique utopian community, the book delves into the founding of Arden in 1900 by sculptor Frank Stephens and architect Will Price, inspired by Henry George's economic principles. Supported by philanthropist Joseph Fels, they created a vibrant colony in Delaware, drawing a diverse group of radicals and progressives, including notable figures like Upton Sinclair and Scott Nearing. Through photographs, it captures the early history of this little-known experiment in social reform and community living.

Focusing on the precarious state of art workers, this revised edition challenges the notion that culture is solely beneficial. It critiques the systemic exclusion of women, people of color, and working-class individuals in the UK’s cultural landscape, revealing that promises of inclusivity remain largely unfulfilled, especially post-COVID. The book argues that until inequalities in the workforce and audience are addressed, the true potential of culture to enrich society cannot be achieved, making a compelling case for the transformation of cultural and creative industries.

The bestselling intermediate macroeconomics book, Mankiw's masterful text covers the field as accessibly and concisely as possible, in a way that emphasizes the relevance of both macroeconomics's classical roots and its current practice. Featuring the latest data, new case studies, and a number of significant content updates, the new Sixth Edition takes the Mankiw legacy even further.
The book demonstrates that cultural jobs are the preserve of the most
privileged, a 'creative class' in society, and always have been: there was no
golden age for social mobility in culture. It shows how women, people of
colour, and those of working class origins are missing from key parts of the
workforce and audience for culture. -- .
In writing this textbook, Mankiw has tried to put himself in the position of someone seeing economics for the first time. The author's conversational writing style is superb for presenting the politics and science of economic theories to tomorrow's decision-makers. Because Mankiw wrote it for the students, the book stands out among all other principle texts by intriguing students to apply an economic way of thinking in their daily lives. Receiving such praise as "perhaps the best ever" textbook in economic principles, it's no wonder Mankiw's prize project has quickly become one of the most successful books ever to be published in the college marketplace.
