But democratization does not ensure better representation for everyone, and indeed some sectors of society are ill-equipped to take advantage of these new opportunities. Small industry in Mexico, Kenneth Shadlen shows, is an excellent example of a sector whose representation decreased during democratization.""Shadlen uses extensive interviews and archival research to provide new evidence and insights on the difficult challenges of interest aggregation and representation for small industry. He conducted interviews with a wide range of owners and managers of small firms, state and party officials, and leaders of business associations and civil society organizations. He also did research at the National Archives in Mexico City and in the archives of the most important business organizations for small industry in the post-World War II period."--Jacket.DemocratizationMexicoTrade associationsPolitical activityMexicoSmall businessGovernment policyMexicoIndustrial promotionMexicoIndustrial policyMexicoElectronic books.DemocratizationTrade associationsPolitical activitySmall businessGovernment policyIndustrial promotionIndustrial policy322.30972Shadlen Kenneth C.1028534MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910480856103321Democratization without representation2444567UNINAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress04029nam 22004693 450 991016494290332120241107102041.0(CKB)3710000000959891(MiAaPQ)EBC5337505(Au-PeEL)EBL5337505(CaONFJC)MIL910647(OCoLC)1031966747(ODN)ODN0002411744(EXLCZ)99371000000095989120210901d2016 uy 0engurcnu||||||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierLab Girl2016New York :Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group,2016.©2016.1 online resource (300 pages)1-101-87493-7 1-101-87494-5 Intro -- Title Page -- Copyright -- Contents -- Dedication -- Epigraph -- Prologue -- Part One: Roots and Leaves -- Chapter 1 -- Chapter 2 -- Chapter 3 -- Chapter 4 -- Chapter 5 -- Chapter 6 -- Chapter 7 -- Chapter 8 -- Chapter 9 -- Chapter 10 -- Chapter 11 -- Part Two: Wood and Knots -- Chapter 1 -- Chapter 2 -- Chapter 3 -- Chapter 4 -- Chapter 5 -- Chapter 6 -- Chapter 7 -- Chapter 8 -- Chapter 9 -- Chapter 10 -- Chapter 11 -- Chapter 12 -- Part Three: Flowers and Fruit -- Chapter 1 -- Chapter 2 -- Chapter 3 -- Chapter 4 -- Chapter 5 -- Chapter 6 -- Chapter 7 -- Chapter 8 -- Chapter 9 -- Chapter 10 -- Chapter 11 -- Chapter 12 -- Chapter 13 -- Chapter 14 -- Epilogue -- Acknowledgments -- Endnote -- A Note About the Author.Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for AutobiographyA New York Times 2016 Notable BookNational Best SellerNamed one of TIME magazine's 100 Most Influential PeopleAn Amazon Top 20 Best Book of 2016A Washington Post Best Memoir of 2016A TIME and Entertainment Weekly Best Book of 2016 An illuminating debut memoir of a woman in science; a moving portrait of a longtime friendship; and a stunningly fresh look at plants that will forever change how you see the natural world Acclaimed scientist Hope Jahren has built three laboratories in which she's studied trees, flowers, seeds, and soil. Her first book is a revelatory treatise on plant life-but it is also so much more. Lab Girl is a book about work, love, and the mountains that can be moved when those two things come together. It is told through Jahren's remarkable stories: about her childhood in rural Minnesota with an uncompromising mother and a father who encouraged hours of play in his classroom's labs; about how she found a sanctuary in science, and learned to perform lab work done "with both the heart and the hands"; and about the inevitable disappointments, but also the triumphs and exhilarating discoveries, of scientific work.Yet at the core of this book is the story of a relationship Jahren forged with a brilliant, wounded man named Bill, who becomes her lab partner and best friend. Their sometimes rogue adventures in science take them from the Midwest across the United States and back again, over the Atlantic to the ever-light skies of the North Pole and to tropical Hawaii, where she and her lab currently make their home. Jahren's probing look at plants, her astonishing tenacity of spirit, and her acute insights on nature enliven every page of this extraordinary book. Lab Girl opens your eyes to the beautiful, sophisticated mechanisms within every leaf, blade of grass, andflower petal. Here is an eloquent demonstration of what can happen when you find the stamina, passion, and sense of sacrifice needed to make a life out of what you truly love, as you discover along the way the person you were meant to be.Jahren, HopeJahren, Hope.580.92 BBIO026000NAT026000SCI026000bisacshJahren Hope741508MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910164942903321Lab girl1472019UNINA
