Book reports Now Discover Your Strengths by Marcus

trying to repair these flaws, while our strengths
lie dormant and neglected. Marcus Buckingham,

Policy Making Process Play A Role
2,378 words
Public Policy A public policy is a set of
principles that directs government actions. The
policy may take one of many forms- laws, rules,
programs, money, court decisions and even customs
and traditions. These policies affect everyone,
but not always in the same way. For example a
policy thats good for the consumer may not be good
for the farmer. Public policy is developed through
a process of debate and compromise. For that
process to work effectively, policy makers need to
hear from a broad ra...

Lies My Teacher Told Me By James Loewen
1,271 words
Lies My Teacher Told Me by James Loewen James W.
Loewen, in my opinion, makes a very valid argument
in Lies My Teacher Told Me. He argues that
teaching (of history) today relies too much on the
textbooks which glorify the United States and its
imperfect leaders and heroes. His examples, in

unfamiliar, or deceived, in their understanding of
American History and are painfully obvious to
those fairly educated in the events of our nations
past. Personally, I a...
