Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition blue boards, black spine, and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Introduction; Conclusion; Acknowledgments; Endnotes, and Index. First American Edition. "From affirmative action to welfare, a devastating examination of the real-life effects of good intentions gone terribly wrong. This thoughtful, lucid, and often restrained account of the wreckage produced by racial politics marks Jason Riley as one of the nation's rising political writers." - Charles Krauthammer. "Boom! A combative, conservative shot to the jaw of liberal dogma about black America. Riley is brash in calling out the phony leaders, the false prophets. He exposes the weak thinking behind so many of the smiling faces with good intentions that lead to bad results for those of us most in need of help." - Juan Williams. "There are people who labor under the impression that the last word on race issues in modern America is work by writers like Cornel West and Michael Eric Dyson. Too few understand that after one has sampled them, true enlightenment can come only by also reading work like this book by Jason Riley. The current civil rights orthodoxy is longer on custom than concrete goals. Please Stop Helping Us shows us why." - John McWhoerter. "Jason Riley has written a superb book about government policies that are intended to help blacks, but have instead gone on to injure them with the helping hand. I was particularly taken by the sophistication, scholarly competence, and fresh thinking around these very complex issues. This fine book is a major contribution to our thinking about black socioeconomic progress." - Robert L. Woodson Sr. "Why is it that so many efforts by liberals to lift the black underclass not only fail, but often harm the intended beneficiaries? In [the book, the author] examines how well-intentioned welfare programs are in fact holding black Americans back. Minimum-wage laws may lift earnings for people who are already employed, but they price a disproportionate number of blacks out of the labor force. Affirmative action in higher education is intended to address past discrimination, but the result is fewer black college graduates than would otherwise exist. And so it goes with everything from soft-on-crime laws, which make black neighborhoods more dangerous, to policies that limit school choice out of a mistaken belief that charter schools and voucher programs harm the traditional public schools that most low-income students attend. In theory these efforts are intended to help the poor - the poor minorities in particular. In practice they become massive barriers to moving forward. [The book] lays bare these counterproductive results. People of goodwill want to see more black socioeconomic advancement, but in too many instances the current methods and approaches aren't working. Acknowledging this is an important first step." - from the inner front jacket flap. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Jason L. Riley is an editorial board member of the Wall Street Journal, where he has worked since 1994, and a Fox News contributor. He lives in suburban New York City with his wife and three children.

Hardcover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: New. 1st Edition. New condition dark gray boards with silver spine lettering contained in a new condition non price-clipped photographic dust jacket. Includes Praise for Maverick; List of Other Books by Jason Riley; Dedication; Introduction; Acknowledgments; Notes: Index and About the Author. "Thomas Sowell is one of the great social theorists of our age. In a career spanning more than a half century, few scholars have matched his range and accessibility. He has written more than thirty books, covering topics from economic history and social inequality to political philosophy, race, migration, and culture. His bold and unsentimental assaults on liberal orthodoxy have endeared him to many but enraged most of his fellow intellectuals, the civil-rights establishment, and much of the mainstream media. As a result, critics preoccupied with political correctness have demeaned, ignored, and downplayed his important contributions. In this first-ever biography of Sowell, Wall Street Journal columnist Jason L. Riley gives this iconic thinker his due and responds to his detractors. Maverick showcases Sowell's most significant writings and traces the life events that shaped his ideas and resulted in a black orphan born in the Jim Crow South going on to graduate from Harvard, earn a PhD under Milton Friedman at the University of Chicago, teach economics at Cornell and UCLA, and spend the past four decades as one of America's foremost public intellectuals." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.

Pages fine. Bind fine. Dust wrapper, fine; unclipped 23.99, protected in new clear sleeve. Rare fine first edition in original wrapper. Why is it that so many efforts by politicians to supposedly lift the black underclass, harm those on the receiving end? Jason L. Riley examines how welfare and assistance programs are in fact holding black Americans back. Minimum-wage laws may lift earnings for those already employed, but they price a disproportionate out of the labor force. Affirmative action in higher education is intended to address discrimination, but the result is fewer black college graduates than would otherwise exist. And so it goes with everything from soft-on-crime laws, which make black neighborhoods more dangerous, to policies that limit school choice out of a short-sighted belief that charter schools and voucher programs harm the traditional public schools. In practice these so-called benefits are designed to limit self-reliance and independence and create dependence and a culture of victim-hood. 205 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
