In Our Business Civilization, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian James Truslow Adams delivers a sharp and thoughtful critique of early 20th-century American society.

"The Pivot of Civilization" is a non-fiction book written by Margaret Sanger, the founder of the birth control movement in the United States.
