I guess I don't get all this animosity toward Amazon. If it is too big, then use the force of government to break it up.

Or because they are your neighbors. Or of course, if you just want to stick it to Bezos like the Lilliputians that we are! I didn't know about this resource. I have degenerated to routing all of my orders through Op Cit which moved to De Vargas from SanBusco. They try very hard to find and obtain any title and have offered Mary that they will also add her wish list to theirs and pull books she is looking for as they find them (they have a big backlog of unsorted and get more every day in trade) rather than order. They don't seem to be registered with Bookshop, nor does Big Star... I'll follow up and see why maybe not. - Steve On 9/14/20 8:30 AM, uǝlƃ ↙↙↙ wrote: > And just in case you want to avoid enriching super villains like Bezos: > > https://bookshop.org/books/bonds-of-civility/9780521601153 > https://bookshop.org/books/the-taming-of-the-samurai-honorific-individ > ualism-and-the-making-of-modern-japan-revised/9780674868090 > > And the book Steve shared: > https://bookshop.org/books/blackfoot-physics-a-journey-into-the-native > -american-worldview/9781578633715 > > On 9/13/20 6:52 PM, Carl Tollander wrote: >> Yes to Ikegami's "Bonds of Civility"and her other book "Taming of the >> Samurai". >> >> Carl >> >> >> On Sun, Sep 13, 2020 at 4:14 PM David Eric Smith <desm...@santafe.edu >> <mailto:desm...@santafe.edu>> wrote: >> >> This idea of places where people of different walks “encounter each >> other” — or even better have something meaningful to do with each other, has >> an interesting role at a certain period of social change in Japan. >> >> From a friend and colleague: >> >> https://www.amazon.com/Bonds-Civility-Aesthetic-Political-Structural/dp/0521601150 >> The author argues that the creation of “publics” was an important social >> innovation in getting around the codified barriers in an officially feudal >> society, de facto before it was possible de jure. > - .... . -..-. . -. -.. -..-. .. ... -..-. .... . .-. .
