Extractions: Now the son of one of the flag-raisers has written a powerful account of six very different young men who came together in a moment that will live forever. To his family, John Bradley never spoke of the photograph or the war. But after his death at age seventy, his family discovered closed boxes of letters and photos. In Flags of Our Fathers, James Bradley draws on those documents to retrace the lives of his father and the men of Easy Company. Few books ever have captured the complexity and furor of war and its aftermath as well as Flags of Our Fathers. A penetrating, epic look at a generation at war, this is history told with keen insight, enormous honesty, and the passion of a son paying homage to his father. It is the story of the difference between truth and myth, the meaning of being a hero, and the essence of the human experience of war.

Extractions: Course Description and Objectives: Your grade in this course will be based on the following components: 3 Examinations 45% total = 15% each 3 Discussion Panels 20% total = 6.7% each Term Paper Participation In class (particularly discussions) In Electronic Discussion 15 total% Examinations There will be three (3) non-cumulative, 75 minute examinations, each counting 15% of your course grade. The dates for each exam and the specific material to be covered on each are listed on the course schedule. All exams will consist of essay (e.g., identify and describe; compare and contrast; explain) and objective (multiple-choice; completion) questions to test your knowledge (breadth and depth of understanding) of material from the lectures, readings, and discussions. To do well on the exams you must know and understand the concepts, principles, theories, controversies, terms, findings, relationships, and facts, and must be able to apply your knowledge. You should comprehend and study the readings, lectures, and discussions for detail as well as for the big picture. Attending classes and taking good notes will help you do this for the lectures. The Key Ideas, Terms, and Names at the end of each chapter in the Schwartz textbook (and perhaps the Study Guide that accompanies the text) will help your reading and studying of the textbook. Preparing for and actively participating in the discussions will help you on the exam questions based on them. I hope that all the exams (and paper and discussions for that matter) encourage you to think using the concepts, theories, principles, findings, and methodology of abnormal psychology.
