Hardback. Etat : Good. From 1896 to 1924, motivated by fears of an irresistible wave of Asian migration and the possibility that whites might be ousted from their position of global domination, British colonists and white Americans instituted stringent legislative controls on Chinese, Japanese, and South Asian immigration. Historians of these efforts typically stress similarity and collaboration between these movements, but in this compelling study, David C. Atkinson highlights the differences in these campaigns and argues that the main factor unifying these otherwise distinctive drives was the constant tensions they caused. Drawing on documentary evidence from the United States, Great Britain, Australia, Canada, South Africa, and New Zealand, Atkinson traces how these exclusionary regimes drew inspiration from similar racial, economic, and strategic anxieties, but nevertheless developed idiosyncratically in the first decades of the twentieth century.Arguing that the so-called white man's burden was often white supremacy itself, Atkinson demonstrates how the tenets of absolute exclusion -- meant to foster white racial, political, and economic supremacy -- only inflamed dangerous tensions that threatened to undermine the British Empire, American foreign relations, and the new framework of international cooperation that followed the First World War.…

Hardcover. Etat : Good. Later printing. Octavo; xxii, 384 pages. khaki cloth, Inked name of Gilbert Berry (a psychologist?) with his pencilled underlining in the first 60 pages. "Tis book contains a summary of research on the achievement motive conducted mainly at Wesleyan University . under the continuous moral and financial support of the Office of Naval Research. . we feel that most readers, being interested in the total problem, will want to read the whole book. For only if they do, will they discover what we have discovered - that concentration on a limited research problem is not necessarily narrowing; it may lead ultimately into the whole of psychology." - Preface. Oddly, one commentator claims that McClelland developed his achievement motivation theory in 1961, and presented it in his solo book, THE ACHIEVING SOCIETY.…
