Making Do

by Professor of History Paul Goodman

Making Do by Paul Goodman is a collection of essays that explore the concept of ""making do"" in various aspects of life. Goodman argues that the ability to make do, or to be resourceful and creative with limited resources, is a valuable skill that is often overlooked in modern society. He examines the ways in which people have historically made do in areas such as food, clothing, shelter, and transportation, and suggests that these practices can be applied in contemporary contexts to promote sustainability and self-sufficiency. The book also touches on broader social and political issues, such as the role of technology in modern life and the importance of community and cooperation. Overall, Making Do offers a thought-provoking perspective on the value of resourcefulness and resilience in the face of challenges.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
