 Publications and Multimedia Materials Resulting from Grants
PUBLICATIONS AND NONPRINT MATERIALS (1998-99)
In seeking to fulfill Andrew Carnegie’s mission to promote “the advancement and diffusion of knowledge and understanding,” the Corporation funds studies, research and writing, and similar projects that often result in print, film/video, audio and electronic materials for public dissemination. More than 1,000 books, reports, textbooks and curricula have been published with Corporation grants in the past fifteen years. Although a high proportion are intended for academic and professional readers and other specialists, quite a few have reached a broad audience, and the ideas have taken root in policy and practice. Electronic publishing has become an increasingly important arena for dissemination, and many of the Corporation’s grantees now have web sites, which are listed in the grant descriptions.
Among recent publications that explored issues central to the Corporation’s programs are From Generation to Generation: The Health and Well-Being of Children in Immigrant Families, edited by Evan Charney and Donald J. Hernandez, Reducing Prejudice and Stereotyping in Schools, by Walter Stephan, Civil Society in Central Asia, edited by M. Holt Ruffin and Daniel Waugh, The Self-Restraining State: Power and Accountability in New Democracies, edited by Andreas Schedler, Larry Diamond and Marc F. Plattner and The State of Working America 1998-99, by Lawrence Mishel and Jared Bernstein. The series of interdisciplinary teacher’s guides on human biology, which includes Breathing, Ecology, Lives of Cells, and Nervous System (Everyday Learning), is indicative of the
Corporation’s interest in high-quality middle grade curricula and teacher training materials. The Corporation’s support of compelling audiovisual materials is exemplified by “The Long Walk of Nelson Mandela” (PBS Home Video).
The following selections of publications and nonprint materials resulting from grants were received by the Corporation in 1998-99. The list does not include papers published in journals, newspapers, magazines or books. The materials are listed by program area.
