Good but not one of his best. It’s a truism — advanced science can look like magic. The Navajo were exposed to advanced science very early in their history and impressions of it have survived in their medicine ways. You should not mess with what you don’t understand. Very good characters but a little slow in places. Would like to have seen this developed in more books 📚. ( ) I got this book in a ‘mystery bag’ of used books from my favorite book shop. It was an interesting mystery written decades ago in the now approximate-ish present. The ways technology was advanced and how society operates in the story versus reality are generally interesting when reading a near future setting in a book written a few decades ago. I really liked the setting largely on a reservation, and how the reader is introduced to that part of the setting by a main character from elsewhere who needs to understand what is going on was done well. I am not familiar with the history of Sand Paintings but the writing resonated (accurately or inaccurately) with what little I do know on that and general Native American topics and history and generally felt as though it had been well researched. It does also make me want to dig in and find out how much was made up and how much was researched, which is a good result. All in all I enjoyed the trip the book took me on and the unexpected but foreshadowed cans of worms that were opened in the story. [b:Cyber Way|171506|Cyber Way|Alan Dean Foster|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1278647219s/171506.jpg|165613] I finished this borrowed book today. It's sci-fi with a twist. I kept seeing Pokemon characters in the telling of the 'monster' attack parts. I like sci-fi that has well written characters. To me this seemed like an edition for a TV series and not a book. I think that children who like sci-fi would find it fun. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Japan and Germany under the U.S. Occupation explores the reconstruction of education in both countries after World War II. In Japan large-scale reforms were undertaken swiftly after the nation's surrender, whereas in the U.S. Zone of Germany most of the traditional aspects of education were maintained. Masako Shibata argues that differences in the role of the university and in the pattern of elite formation, traceable back to the beginnings of Meiji Japan and the Kaiserreich created the conditions for the diverging approaches of the Japanese and German leaders to the adoption of foreign educational patterns during the Occupation.
