From the publisher: "This lighthearted, anecdotal, but substantial book takes readers on a journey through the toy landscape to show how, as America changed from a rural to an urban society, toys came out of the fields and into the homes and streets; how they stayed conceptually the same, although their outward forms changed; how, in the microcosm of childhood, they expressed and reflected the adult world of which they were a part. Going as far back as ancient Egypt and as far forward as the action figures of today, Andrew McClary delves into the genealogies of eight toy "families": tops, marbles, propeller toys, noisemakers, hoops, dolls, shooters, and blocks. He shows how social changes - the Industrial Revolution, advances in education, increased wealth and leisure - led to the kit toys, tournament toys, organized play, and toy marketing of today. Contemporary issues such as toy safety, "boy" toys versus "girl" toys, and toys and violence are here too - along with the homemade slingshots, road tar gum, and cucumber "poopie" dolls of a less self-conscious era. The playthings of childhood are "us," and if we look carefully, as McClary shows, we can read in them our own history.". First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good EX-LIBRARY/Very Good dust jacket. ix, 258pp. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.…

Paperback. Condición: New. In early America, most children had only a few toys and parents received advice from family and friends on the best ways to make and use toys. By the early 1900s the Industrial Revolution was producing a new world of toys and giving more parents the wealth to buy them. Mass media also sang the praises of these new factory-made, store-bought toys, but that began to change as early as the mid-1900s when the mass media was used to inform parents of the many dangers of children's toys. Many encourage violence, sexism, racism, and some are actually unsafe and unhealthy. The development of children's toys from early America to the present time and the shifting opinions of them expressed by parents and the mass media throughout this time are the main subjects of this book. The first section discusses the many problems with toys, while the second puts these problems in historical perspective. How have these problems changed, and are still changing today? Might today's toys be about to enter a time when they will be better than ever? The third section argues that many media toy watchers are biased toward the negative, giving toys more of a black eye than they deserve, and considers the challenges that face today's parents as they try to choose the best toys for their children. …
