a femenist perspective, but superlative work.......2006-03-19
The problem with sociology of gender is that the work seems to be dominated by a femenist perspective, instead of a value nuetral perspective. However, the field of gender sociology has been covered more assiduously (and thus remains more valid and relevant)then many other fields of sociology.
Otherwise, this is a fantastic book. The authors Dubeck and Dunn use a vast amount of resources to create a highly valid book that adresses gender and race inequality (from a female perspective). The first edition is really not too much different from the 2nd, but the articles are on different pages. The purpose of this second edition (like most updates) is to get more money from college students.
Book Description
Time for Tea offers a delightfully unique expression of why English society has so steadfastly preserved its teatime tradition. Thirteen English women, ranging in age from six to eighty, share their very candid and entertaining reflections on why the teatime ritual -- in all its incarnations -- is such an indelible fixture in their lives.
From Virginia, Lady Bath, to Winifred Westcott, a dairy farmer, from Anne Slade, a retired ballerina, to schoolgirl Hayley Richards, a farmer's daughter, we are treated to the surprisingly moving and engaging medley of these women's memories and dreams, as they discuss their own teatime traditions and their lives with us -- over a cup of tea.
The women also share their family teatime recipes for delicious cakes, scones, crumpets and jams, and suggest an appropriate tea to accompany them. Along the way, we explore the secrets of an English specialty tea shop, see the inside of a tea blender, learn how to brew a perfect pot of tea and how to make an authentic cream tea.
The women's stories are beautifully framed by spectacular photographs of the breathtaking English countryside, which perfectly complements the peace and serenity of a good English tea.

Time for tea : more than just a coffee table book.......2007-06-20
When I started reading this book, I quickly became engrossed and decided to read one chapter everyday with a cup of tea envisioning myself in England sitting and chatting with the ladies or maybe just listening to their stories.
One of the ladies, married with children, was once a ballerina who then enrolled in a school to study law when she was in her mid thirties. She shared her story about how awkward she felt when she found her classmates were all teenagers and how she juggled in her study with the support of her family.
I truly enjoy reading this book. It gives insight and make me reflect on my own life experiences.
As the other reviewer wrote, put the kettle on, brew some English tea or any kind of tea, sit back and relax with this charming, awesome and inspiring little book. Blow away the stress from our mind !
I LOVE THIS BOOK!.......2004-06-03
If you love tea and all that goes with it, you'll certainly enjoy this book. It doesn't have a lot of technical information about tea, but that doesn't matter and that's not the focus of this book. What it does have is "coziness" to spare. As far as I know, this book is unique in the tea literature in that it explores how people view the tea ceremony (or tea break) and the part that having tea plays in their lives--and who knew it could be this fascinating?
One elderly lady is an expert (and award-winning) maker of clotted cream and bemoans the fact that the standard loose tea bought in the market is just dust anymore instead of leaves (a result of mechanization where leaves are not left whole but are cut, torn, and curled). Another lady works for D. J. Miles tea company, a small privately-held tea business in the country side, and gives an interesting glimpse into the business end of tea. The ladies interviewed by the author come from different walks of life, but their commonality is they take time out for tea. They have found it to be a comfort, a break and respite from the cares of daily life, and a time to gather friends and loved ones and enjoy each others company. It's a shame that the traditional afternoon tea is apparently falling on hard times in England, but not with these ladies. They recognize the value of taking time out for tea and just the sheer pleasure of a cuppa with a bite to eat--no apologies needed! Each lady, by the way, also provides a few recipes for tea time treats. I've not tried any of them, but they generally sound tasty.
One little side note: I work for an English boss who introduced me to English brand teas. Let me tell you, they are FAR superior to anything you can buy in American markets. Even though they are not premium teas, they are stronger and have more complex and interesting flavors than American brands. I highly recommend PG Tips, Yorkshire Tea (Regular and Gold), and Barry's (an Irish brand) for hot tea--all loose leaf, of course. All make excellent hot or iced tea. The British have not taken to iced tea, probably because the only kind they've tried comes in bottles and cans--no wonder they think it's nasty! You can find English tea all over the internet, (...) You'll get your purchase quickly, and some companies put in a few samples to try.
Put the kettle on, brew some English tea, and sit back and relax with this charming, entertaining, and fascinating little book. I guarantee that stress will vanish!
Enchanting read!.......2004-03-17
This book is enchanting, it touches the soul and reaffirms traditions such as tea time, in its many forms. The ladies in each chapter are as different as jasmine tea and Earl Gray and delight, each in their own way. The recipes are wonderful as well. I would recommend this book for any tea lover, or lover of tradition in our lives, the special rituals that shape us early on and touch us deep insde.
Tea and Scones anyone?.......2000-05-21
I feel like I have had Tea with 13 different women and come away with 13 delicous recipes! The description of the countryside,and cities made me feel as if I was right there, I think I could actually hear the church bells ringing! The sharing of their lives was a fascinating read. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for such a book!
Totally Charming Book.......1998-10-09
You'll love this book if you like England or tea. The writer is an unusally skilled interviewer and her subjects reveal more than you would ever expect from an English woman. They don't always say the expected thing!
The photography and presentation are excellent. Recipes are included. This is a lovely gift for someone else or for yourself. It's a charmer.
Book Description
At a time when Americans were so riveted by questions about their place in a newly hostile world and were swearing off air travel, Elinor Burkett did not just take a trip -- she took a headlong dive into enemy territories.
Her yearlong odyssey began with her assignment as a Fulbright Professor teaching journalism in Kyrgyzstan, a faded fragment of Soviet might in the heart of Central Asia -- a place of dilapidated apartments, bizarre food, and demoralized citizens clinging to the safety of Brother Russia. She then journeyed to Afghanistan and Iraq -- where she mingled with tense Iraqis, watching the gathering storm clouds of an American-led invasion -- as well as Iran, Mongolia, Uzbekistan, China, and Vietnam.
Whether she's writing about being served goat's head in a Kyrgyz yurt, checking out bowling alleys in Baghdad, or trying to cook a chicken in a crumbling apartment, Burkett offers an eclectic series of adventures that are alternately comical, poignant, and discomfiting.
Customer Reviews:
adventurous spirit abroad.......2007-02-16
Elinor Burkett's account of her travels in Central Asia is vibrant, quirky, and fascinating. I especially admire her courage in traveling to a region not well known to most Americans, her observational powers, her attention to detail, and her ability to place her adventures in a global context. I also admire her integrity in sticking to her principles as a professor of journalism at Bishkek, Kyrgystan, and her sincere desire to inject the spirit of journalistic objectivity into her students' psyches.
As I read over the other reviews of this book, I found it hard to believe that anyone who had not acted with the same bravery in traveling to the truly exotic locations in this book would dare to express a negative opinion of two who dared do so. I believe that Elinor and her husband Dennis made a great team as they explored foreign cultures, not only in Central Asia, but as far afield as China, and reported their own colorful experiences, as well as the stories of the many people they met who are dealing with enormous adjustments from the communism of the former USSR to a free market economy, and from age-old peasant practices to the rapid technological advances of the first world. Elinor describes in great detail the painful shifts in mindset that are occurring among the young people in Kyrgystan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Afghanistan, as well as in Iraq and Iran, and the way that they are caught between conflicting desires for the past and the future. She sheds light on their world and their natural wish to be regarded as important by America and other developed nations.
Perhaps the most compelling reason for which I appreciate this book is that Elinor succeeds in making us Americentric people aware that there are many other nations out there, many other peoples, all of whom have hopes, desires, and problems that are just as valid as ours. This book enriches our knowledge of the world. Bravo to a modern American trailblazer!
Misleading title, nonetheless leads to intriguing read.......2006-03-05
Burkett manages to squeeze in so much travel in a year as a Fullbright Professor from homebase of Kyrgyzstan, that it makes you want to pick up and follow her lead. She makes it seem, however, from the title, that she is somehow in danger or threatened when she does travel to areas of the world such as Iran, Afghanistan, and Iraq. This could be far from the case, as she realizes too that these countries, places that Americans or Westerners might not think of as travel destinations, are full of life, and filled with friendly and curious people.
She also sheds light on the country of Kyrgyzstan, a newly emerged Central Asian nation, struggling with modernization amongst the gritty aftermath of the Soviet Union. The popular "resort" area of Lake Issykul is marred by discarded industrial plants rusting in the water. Trying to find a normal chicken to cook and eat for dinner is a funny vignette. Also the different outlook on life that her students take, open her eyes, as well as the reader.
Overall an intriguing read, don't expect anything too deep, especially when she goes on assignment as a "journalist" for Elle magazine. And what exactly does her husband do when he goes with her on her Fullbright trip? She never says, except once when he tries to secure press passes... I'm not exactly sure how he can be a part of the media.
The Ugly American is alive and well........2006-02-09
If Ms. Burkett's light-weight, self-important book is an example of the type of journalism she presented to her students in Kyrgyzstan they deserve their money back. For example, she begins by describing the less than rigorous practice of religion in the country as "Muslim light." What an egregious error; she obviously needed to say "Islam light", but she - and her editors - couldn't quite find the words to do so. But why would we expect her to? After all, she's only a self-described "professor" of journalism. Faculty appointments notwithstanding, she's about as much a journalism "professor" as I am the King of Siam. Frankly, she hasn't a clue what she's talking about.
Worse, Burkett mocks and denigrates everyone and everything she encounters: she dreads the food, she loathes her hosts' formality and politeness; she even hates their buildings. And she makes herself the long-suffering heroine of every story, from being in a putative Muslim country on 9/11 , to surviving flights on ancient Soviet commercial airliners. How very, very brave.
I've seen her type before: the brash complainers who go overseas - usually at U.S. taxpayers' expense - waving their American "We're Number One" foam-rubber finger at the natives! Burkett may have traveled widely, but her attitude is strictly bush, pun intended. In short, if this book is anything to go by, she is the quintessential Ugly American - or maybe just Ugly American Light.
Unexpectedly good..........2005-07-17
I picked up this book on a whim when I saw it under the "new non-fiction" at my library. And I'm glad I did. The author, a journalist, decided to spend one year teaching "American-style journalism" in Kyrgyzstan as part of the Fulbright program. Her journey at first paints a picture of a place many of us have probably heard little about. She tells us, for example, of the struggle to find edible "non-delicacies" in a country where customarily goat brain is served to guests. The author and her husband had also planned to travel extensively around the region, but then 9/11 struck. Instead of ditching what they considered a "once in a lifetime" opportunity, they proceeded on their trip to Afghanistan. The author's encounters with the people of these countries, as well as others, including Iran, Iraq, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan show us how very alike- and different we are. She also tries to paint a picture of how these countries view the USA, before and after the attacks of 9/11. My only gripe with this book is I felt the end, where she traveled across Russia, China, and Vietnam, seemed a bit rushed, and I wasn't ready for the story to end.
Elinor Burkett: Today's Marco Polo.......2005-05-03
Just finished Elinor Burkett's So Many Enemies, So Little Time.
I liked it a lot. It's really a Marco Polo travel diary for today. Burkett provides needed background to world events, in a lively personal style. Fun to read, and you can think about it afterwards, too. The book recounts Burkett's adventures in Kyrgystan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Iraq, Russia, Burma (officially Myanmar), China, Vietnam, and Cambodia during the 2001-2002 events, when she was a Fulbright Scholar. I agree with her view that the Fulbright program is one US government initiative that really works as it was intended. She explains how her view of the world changed after her experience teaching abroad in the wake of 9/11--just the kind of growth experience Senator Fulbright wanted. Burkett has a real gift for noticing the interesting detail. Her description of the little things at her university in Bishkek--such as wandering around the hall trying to find a classroom after being kicked out for some sort of seminar--tracked pretty exactly to my experience at UWED in Tashkent (which I was pleased to see she called the Harvard of Central Asia). Burkett's observations are generally acute, the most telling ones based on her personal confrontations with age-old traditions.
Most of all, I enjoyed Burkett's Kyrgyz anecdotes, which I think reflect a certain mentality--and reality--in the region. Here's a sample:
While walking in the countryside, two Uzbeks and two Kyrgyz fell in a hole. "I'll give you a hand up," the younger Uzbek said to the older. "Then, when you're on solid ground, you can pull me up." The older man agreed, the Uzbeks freed themselves and then went on their way.
The two Kyrgyz men looked at each other grimly, and one began climbing out of the hole on his own. "Hey, you can't do that," yelled the other man, pulling on his companion's legs. "If you get out, I'll be alone and stranded."
Book Description
When Abigail Adams asked her husband to "Remember the Ladies," women could not vote or own property in America. Some seventy years later, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton wrote, "To vote is the most sacred act of citizenship," the government of the United States still did not treat women as equals, having yet to grant them the right to vote. But sixty-four years after that Geraldine Ferraro declared, "We can do anything," and became the first American woman to run for vice president on a major party ticket. Today, surely our country is ready for a leader who, as Elizabeth Dole said, "will call America to her better nature." This captivating book illuminates the bravery and tenacity of the women who have come before us. With an engaging narrative, fascinating quotes, and elegant illustrations, it not only shows how far women have come but also reveals the many unsung roles women have played in political history Step by step, these capable ladies have paved the way for our young leaders of tomorrow. They have enabled and empowered us to ask today: Well, why not the presidency?

The women who have paved the way for the first Madam President.......2006-03-29
Pat Paulsen once said that in America every boy can grow up to be president; or, if he never grows-up, vice-president (remember how they portrayed Dan Quayle on "Saturday Night Live"?). But what about if you are a girl instead of a boy? No girl has ever grown up to be president and only one has grown up to even run for vice-president on a major party ticket. However, at this writing the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party for the 2008 election is Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton. Running for president is not the same as being elected, but Catherine Thimmesh highlights this progress in the sub-title of her book, "Madam President: The Extraordinary, True (and Evolving) Story of Women in Politics."
This book looks at the women who have played key roles in political history, and one of the interesting things is that instead of proceeding chronologically from Abigail Adams to Condoleezza Rice it does so within the context of specific categories. Thimmesh begins her book with a kids talking about what they want to be when they grow up. When one young girl says she wants to grow up to become president, a young boy scoffs at the idea. Others then come up with alternatives, such as marrying a president. Thimmesh then looks at a half-dozen first ladies: Abigail Adams, Edith Bolling Wilson, Eleanor Roosevelt, Lady Bird Johnson, Rosalynn Carter, and Clinton. Each is covered in a two-page spread that tells why each is remembered, with a key quotation highlights in blue print.
From marrying the president the book turns to voting for president, and looks at Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Charlotte Woodward, Susan B. Anthony, Sara Bard Field, and Mrs. J.L. Burn, and the parts they played in getting women the vote. One of the strengths of this book is that it looks at women whose names are not usually remembered in this regard, so it does get beyond the usual women who are remembered. The next category is working in Congress, beginning with the first Congresswoman, Jeannette Rankin, and the first Senator, Margaret Chase Smith, and ending with Nancy Pelosi the current minority leader in the U.S. House of Representatives. Then the book looks at women who have been appointed by presidents to serve in the Cabinet and elsewhere: Frances Perkins, Madeleine Albright, Sandra Day O'Connor, Condoleezza Rice.
The briefest category has Geraldine Ferraro, the only women to run on a major party ticket (twenty years ago), and the final category is devoted to women who have been presidents and prime ministers in foreign countries: Sirimvao Bandaranaike of what was then Ceylon, Vigdis Finnbogadottir of Iceland, Margaret Thatcher of Great Britain, and Benzair Bhutto of Pakistan. When young readers get to the end of the book George Washington will help point out that to become president all you need to be is an American citizen, born in the States, and at least thirty-five years old. Clearly, at that point there is nothing else to be said to make the case for a woman becoming president. The back of the book has a Timeline that looks at the history of women and politics in the United States (notice that the first line covers 146 years, the second 58, and the final one only 22 years as the political evolution of women was been speeding up).
If Senator Clinton gets the nomination there will be many who will not vote for her because she is a woman, and there will be many who will vote for her because she is (and even more who will simply not vote, which is arguably worse than exhibiting a gender bias in either direction). So having a woman run for president or even winning and being the first Madam President does not mean sexual equality is at hand. But most young people who read this book will have every reason to believe that the first woman president of the United States is going to be elected during their lifetime. Final Note: The illustrations in this book were hand drawn by Douglas B. Jones with pencil on paper and then color was applied using Photoshop on a Mac. I mention this because they struck me as looking somewhat unique and this process might just explain why in case you were wondering too.
Timely and beautiful!.......2004-09-11
I bought this book for my 11 year old niece who gave it rave reviews! She has passed it on to her cousin who also loved it. The girls are showing some interest in politics especially as it is an election year and they are learning alot about the basics of government at school.
The writing and the illustrations make, what could have been a dry subject, fun, hip and humorous. The characters are stylish, accurate and engaging.
We all need to encourage an interest in politics and voting in our youth. And its great to show little girls examples of strong female role models in a way that they can relate to.
I highly recommend this book!

Book Description
The societies of Latin America have placed great weight on nation building, yet each one is torn between the global and the local. Affiliation to one's own nation is cross-cut by other bonds with communities and places; increasingly each individual, each family and each nation in this region is feeling the effects of globalization.
ReMaking the Nation presents new ways of thinking about the nation, nationalism and national identities. Drawing links between popular culture and indigenous movements, issues of race and gender, and ideologies of national identity, the authors draw on their extensive work in Latin America to illustrate their rethinking of the politics of nationalism. This engaging exploration of contemporary politics in a post new-world-order uncovers a map of future political organization, a world of pluri-nations in the ever-changing struggle for democracy.

Book Description
The brief and dramatic war that initiated Israel's occupation of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in 1967 has become a source of long-term changes for Palestinians in the occupied territories, as well as for Israeli Palestinians and for Israeli Jews. Israel's victory created an occupier/occupied relationship which placed Israeli Jews in the position of power, and left the Palestinians of the occupied territories powerless. Within this dichotomy, the Palestinians of Israel have become and remained invisible. The inequality of the relationship, lasting more than half of Israel's life as a state, has had significant ramifications for men and women, Israeli and Palestinian. However, because of the difference in the daily experiences of men and women, how they have lived within the occupation has differed as well. br br b /b b i Women /i /b b /b b i and the Israeli Occupation /i /b analyzes the impact of this unbalanced relationship on the occupiers and the occupied, Palestinian and Jewish women. Tamar Mayer suggests that more than 26 years of military occupation has challenged social structures within all three societies, and exposed a set of previously unarticulated internal conflicts for each group. At the same time, the occupation has reinforced existing loyalties among and between Palestinian and Jewish women as they have moved into public political action and worked together to end the occupation. Through their joint activities, differences among the groups have surfaced. b /b b i Women and the Israeli Occupation /i /b goes on to examine the contention that the nature of the occupation resembles a colonial relationship, despite the obivous differences between military occupation and colonialism.

Book Description
Gender, Work and Space explores how boundaries are constructed between women and men, and among women living in different neighborhoods. Focusing on work, the segregation of men and women into different occupations, and variations in women's work experiences in various parts of the city, the authors argue that these differences are grounded, are constituted in and through space, place and situated networks.
The authors use a case study of a contemporary city to establish that many women are dependent on extremely local employment opportunities, especially those women with heavy household responsibilities. Women's dependence on locally available jobs focuses attention on the existence of different employment districts throughout the city. The argument is that social, economic and geographic boundaries are overlaid and intertwined. This book contributes to debates about the geography of labor market segmentation, to our understanding of sex-based occupational segregation and, in the close attention given to the construction of social, geographic, economic and symbolic boundaries in ordinary lives, provides a counterbalance to the focus on mobility within contemporary feminist theory.
