Administrative Updates
General Announcements about all things PoliSci103ish:
1. The test of the "Economics and Globalization" section will be on Tuesday, April 4. It will be in the same format as the previous test (mulitiple-answer multiple choice questions and some short answer questions). I will post a review guide at this site in a day or two.
2. The discussion of the extra-credit book for March ("The Sling and the Stone" by Thomas Hammes) will be on Thursday, March 30 at 5:30 PM at the Mercury Tapas Bar downtown on High Street (the restaurant is at 250 or 240 High Street; I can't remember).
3. The extra-credit book for April (the last one this semester) is "Mao: The Unknown Story" by Jung Chang and Jon Halliday (Amazon link), for those that want to order it and get a jump on it. Mao led the Chinese Communist Party to victory in a twenty-year-long civil war in China, and led the country until his death in the 1970s. This book has been very well reviewed, and is the first biography of Mao to use new archival material only available since China has been more open to the west. As such, it contains new information about Mao not previously known. A great read.
