In the early part of the twentieth century, migrants made their way from rural homes to cities in record numbers and many traveled west. Los Angeles became a destination. Women flocked to the growing town to join the film industry as workers and spectators, creating a "New Woman." Their efforts transformed filmmaking from a marginal business to a cosmopolitan, glamorous, and bohemian one. By 1920, Los Angeles had become the only western city where women outnumbered men. In Go West, Young Women, Hilary A. Hallett explores these relatively unknown new western women and their role in the development of Los Angeles and the nascent film industry. From Mary Pickford's rise to become perhaps the most powerful woman of her age, to the racist moral panics of the post-World War I years that culminated in Hollywood's first sex scandal, Hallett describes how the path through early Hollywood presaged the struggles over modern gender roles that animated the century to come.

Veel Nederlanders denken redelijk Engels te kunnen spreken. In de praktijk blijkt dit echter vaak tegen te vallen. Het is niet niks om de kennis van woorden en grammatica vlot toe te passen en te schakelen tussen bijvoorbeeld enkelvoud en meervoud of heden, verleden en toekomst. 

Met Taaltempo Engels kun je in korte tijd je gespreksvaardigheid sterk verbeteren. In het boek wordt gewerkt met vragen en antwoorden. Je leest of beluistert een vraag en formuleert dan een antwoord door de juiste grammaticale regels toe te passen, waarna je het antwoord kunt controleren in het boek en het audiomateriaal. Het geven van een goed antwoord wordt zo gaandeweg een automatisme. Je leert de grammaticale rijtjes los te laten en vervoegingen snel en correct toe te passen. Daarbij oefen je niet alleen de grammatica, maar ook je vocabulaire, uitspraak en intonatie. Het niveau wordt geleidelijk opgevoerd van A1 naar B2, waarbij het voorafgaande steeds wordt herhaald.
