The author has explored the deeper insights of psychology with those of his unique relationship with religion and religious experience; as in Jung he believes no experience absent these two elements of experiential learning rises to the level of subject worth of being evaluated; it will merely fall among the discarded indexes of the court docket. But with the advent of psychic experiences and events as well as the living characters that play their parts in the 'psychic drama' then we are looking at something on the level of art that can rise to of Jung's 'artist' plateau; and Millers and Matthew Arnold'reach the latitude of experiences that are worthy of being written about. I have endeavored to be as faithful to reality as possible when events are not always what they seem, where insight and knowledge of both intuition and sensation is necessary data to describe what is rising to the level of drama rather than the false reality we have been trained to react within; this story is a reflections of true experience and therefore has value as art.

In 'Tattered Tom; or, The Story of a Street Arab' by Horatio Jr. Alger, readers are taken on a journey through the bustling streets of a city, where a young boy named Tom navigates the challenges of poverty and survival. Alger's descriptive prose and vivid imagery immerse the reader in the harsh realities faced by street children, highlighting themes of perseverance and hope in the face of adversity. The book is written in a straightforward and accessible style, making it suitable for readers of all ages, while also serving as a valuable historical snapshot of urban life in the 19th century. Horatio Jr. Alger, known for his popular 'rags-to-riches' stories, drew inspiration from his own experiences and observations of society to create compelling tales of personal transformation. His own background as a minister and social reformer likely influenced his choice to write about marginalized individuals striving for success in a society that often overlooked their struggles. I highly recommend 'Tattered Tom; or, The Story of a Street Arab' to readers interested in classic literature, social issues, and tales of resilience. Alger's poignant storytelling and timeless themes make this book a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the human experience.

"Equity leadership is a complex and often perilous endeavor -- particularly in our current era of political polarization. The fundamental (and paradoxical) challenge is advancing equity in a system that was never designed to serve all children. Deep systemic change will happen only when educators and their community partners understand how the interlocking systems in education operate and learn how to crack the codes that have perpetuated those systems. A number of books on equity leadership focus on single improvement strategies such as equity audits, equitable grading practices, and cultural competence.
