【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Summers Off? A History of U.S. Teachers' Other Three Months【電子書籍】[ Christine A. Ogren ]

<p>Since the nine-month school year became common in the United States during the 1880s, schoolteachers have never really had summers off. Administrators instructed them to rest, as well as to study and travel, in the interest of creating a compliant workforce. Teachers, however, adapted administrators’ directives to pursue their own version of professionalization and to ensure their financial well-being. <em>Summers Off</em> explores teachers’ summer experiences between the 1880s and 1930s in institutes and association meetings; sessions at teachers colleges, Black colleges, and prestigious universities; work for wages or their family; tourism in the U.S. and Europe; and activities intended to be restful. This heretofore untold history reveals how teachers utilized the geographical and psychological distance from the classroom that summer provided, to enhance not only their teaching skills but also their professional and intellectual independence, their membership in the middle class, and, in the cases of women and Black teachers, their defiance of gender and race hierarchies.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Truth About Equity What It Really Is, What It Isn't, And Why Everyone Wins When We Get It Right【電子書籍】[ Celeste Warren ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Truth About Equity What It Really Is, What It Isn't, And Why Everyone Wins When We Get It Right【電子書籍】[ Celeste Warren ]

<p>What if we all began at the same starting line? This thought-provoking book from author Celeste Warren takes readers on a deeply personal and profoundly educational journey through the lens of one woman's experiences, exposing the barriers and systemic inequities that permeate our schools, workplaces, and societies. Blending memoir, analysis, and practical guidance, the book serves as both a call to action and a beacon of hope for those committed to creating a more equitable world.</p> <p>Celeste Warren's story begins with her own challenges as a woman of color navigating the media industry, a path marred by pay disparities and limited opportunities. Faced with these inequities, she transitioned from radio and later found her true calling in the fields of Human Resources and Global Diversity and Inclusion. These personal experiences serve as a compelling foundation for exploring what equity truly means - and why it matters.</p> <p>In recounting her participation in a transformative summer program at her graduate school, the Celeste highlights the power of "acts of equity." This program, designed to bridge educational gaps for students of color, wasn't just an opportunity - it was a lifeline. By sharing this pivotal moment, the book underscores equity's ability to provide the tailored support individuals need to thrive, while also dispelling the myths and misunderstandings that often surround the term.</p> <p>Celeste draws a clear distinction between equity and equality, using vivid analogies to bring these concepts to life. Imagine three people standing before a fence, each on a rock of equal size. While equality gives each person the same support, equity ensures that everyone has what they need to see over the fence - whether that means a taller rock or no fence at all. Through this simple yet powerful analogy, readers are invited to rethink fairness and the systemic barriers - racism, sexism, and beyond - that keep so many from achieving their potential.</p> <p>As the narrative progresses, the focus shifts to the ripple effects of equity. Acts of equity, she argues, not only transform individual lives but also empower those individuals to drive meaningful change within their communities and organizations. This is the essence of equity's promise: a better, more inclusive future for all.</p> <p>The manuscript also tackles head-on the misconception that equity equates to preferential treatment. In an era marked by rising anti-DEI rhetoric, Celeste makes a compelling case for why equity benefits everyone, not just marginalized groups. Far from being divisive, equity unites us by addressing systemic imbalances and creating opportunities for all to succeed.</p> <p>This is more than a book - it's an invitation to join the conversation and take action. Whether you're a business leader, educator, student, nonprofit owner, policymaker, or simply someone striving to make a difference, the insights and lessons offered in this book will leave you inspired, informed, and ready to contribute to the equity movement.</p> <p>Engaging, inspiring, and deeply urgent, this book is a must-read for anyone invested in the ideals of fairness, inclusion, and social progress. It's not just about understanding equity; it's about becoming a part of the solution.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Car Wars The Rise, the Fall, and the Resurgence of the Electric Car【電子書籍】[ John J. Fialka ]

<p><strong>Drawing from the last decade of his 26-year career at the <em>Wall Street Journal</em>, where he covered energy and environmental matters, <em>ClimateWire</em> founder and industry insider John Fialka brings to life this thrilling and important story about American's rejection and second obsession with the electric car.</strong><br /> The resurgence of the electric car in modern life is a tale of adventurers, men and women who bucked the complete dominance of the fossil fueled car to seek something cleaner, simpler and cheaper. Award-winning former <em>Wall Street Journal</em> reporter John Fialka documents the early days of the electric car, from the M.I.T./Caltech race between prototypes in the summer of 1968 to the 1987 victory of the Sunraycer in the world's first race featuring solar powered cars.<br /> Thirty years later, the electric has captured the imagination and pocketbooks of American consumers. Organizations like the U.S. Department of Energy and the state of California, along with companies from the old-guard of General Motors and Toyota as well as upstart young players like Tesla Motors and Elon Musk have embraced the once-extinct technology. The electric car has steadily gained traction in the U.S. and around the world. We are watching the start of a trillion dollar, worldwide race to see who will dominate one of the biggest commercial upheavals of the 21st century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Tourism, Mobility and Second Homes Between Elite Landscape and Common Ground【電子書籍】

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Tourism, Mobility and Second Homes Between Elite Landscape and Common Ground【電子書籍】

<p>Second homes - the cottage, the summer house, the bach - are an important part of the tourism and leisure lifestyles of many people in the developed world. Second homes are therefore an integral component of tourism experiences in rural and peripheral areas. Yet, despite their significance not only for tourism but also for rural communities and the rural economy, relatively little research has been undertaken on the topic until recent times. This volume represents the first major international analysis and review of second homes for over 25 years. It will provide a significant resource for those interested in changing patterns of tourism and leisure behaviour as well as the use of the countryside and peripheral areas. The book describes the economic, social and environmental impacts of second homes as well as their planning implications and places such discussions within the context of contemporary human mobility. The volume represents essential reading for those interested in rural regional development processes and the development of new rural leisure landscapes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Hidden San Francisco A Guide to Lost Landscapes, Unsung Heroes and Radical Histories【電子書籍】[ Chris Carlsson ]

<p>San Francisco is an iconic and symbolic city. But only when you look beyond the picture-postcards of the Golden Gate Bridge and the quaint cable cars do you realise that the city's most interesting stories are not the Summer of Love, the Beats or even the latest gold rush in Silicon Valley.*BR**BR*Hidden San Francisco is a guidebook like no other. Structured around the four major themes of ecology, labour, transit and dissent, Chris Carlsson peels back the layers of San Francisco's history to reveal a storied past: behind old walls and gleaming glass facades lurk former industries, secret music and poetry venues, forgotten terrorist bombings, and much more. Carlsson delves into the Bay Area’s long prehistory as well, examining the region's geography and the lives of its inhabitants before the 1849 Gold Rush changed everything, setting in motion the clash between capital and labour that shaped the modern city.*BR**BR*From the perspective of the students and secretaries, longshoremen and waitresses, Hidden San Francisco uncovers dozens of overlooked, forgotten and buried histories that pulse through the streets and hills even today, inviting the reader to see themselves in the middle of the ongoing, everyday process of making history together.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Bad News for Labour Antisemitism, the Party and Public Belief【電子書籍】[ Greg Philo ]

<p>During the summer of 2018, numerous members of the Labour Party were accused of anti-Semitic behaviour by their detractors. The controversy reached fever pitch amid claims that the Labour Party had become 'institutionally racist' under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, and that the prospect of a Corbyn-led government posed an 'existential threat' to Jewish life in Britain. Shrouded in confusion, hyped by the media, whether these accusations were true or not got lost in the mix.</p> <p>This book clears the confusion by drawing on deep and original research on public beliefs and media representation of antisemitism and the Labour Party, revealing shocking findings of misinformation spread by the press, including the supposedly impartial BBC, and the liberal Guardian.</p> <p>Bringing in discussions around the IHRA definition, anti-Zionism and Israel/Palestine, as well as including a clear chronology of events, this book is a must for anyone wanting to find out the reality behind the headlines.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

From Farm to Canal Street Chinatown's Alternative Food Network in the Global Marketplace【電子書籍】[ Valerie Imbruce ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】From Farm to Canal Street Chinatown's Alternative Food Network in the Global Marketplace【電子書籍】[ Valerie Imbruce ]

<p><strong>Instructors of courses in food systems: this book belongs in your syllabus. It is essential reading for anyone interested in who produces food for urban areas and how it gets into cities.</strong>ー Marion Nestle ?? <em>Food Politics</em></p> <p><strong>On the sidewalks of Manhattan’s Chinatown, you can find street vendors and greengrocers selling bright red litchis in the summer and mustard greens and bok choy no matter the season.</strong> The neighborhood supplies more than two hundred distinct varieties of fruits and vegetables that find their way onto the tables of immigrants and other New Yorkers from many walks of life. Chinatown may seem to be a unique ethnic enclave, but it is by no means isolated. It has been shaped by free trade and by American immigration policies that characterize global economic integration. In <em>From Farm to Canal Street</em>, Valerie Imbruce tells the story of how Chinatown’s food network operates amidーand against the grain ofーthe global trend to consolidate food production and distribution. Manhattan’s Chinatown demonstrates how a local market can influence agricultural practices, food distribution, and consumer decisions on a very broad scale.</p> <p>Imbruce recounts the development of Chinatown’s food network to include farmers from multimillion-dollar farms near the Everglades Agricultural Area and tropical "homegardens" south of Miami in Florida and small farms in Honduras. Although hunger and nutrition are key drivers of food politics, so are jobs, culture, neighborhood quality, and the environment. Imbruce focuses on these four dimensions and proposes policy prescriptions for the decentralization of food distribution, the support of ethnic food clusters, the encouragement of crop diversity in agriculture, and the cultivation of equity and diversity among agents in food supply chains. Imbruce features farmers and brokers whose life histories illuminate the desires and practices of people working in a niche of the global marketplace.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Entrepreneur Me - You Too Your Dream Business Doesn't Need to Fail【電子書籍】[ Tom Sowden ]

<p>WELL THOUGHT OUT ENTREPRENEURIAL IDEAS AND PROJECTS CAN GO TOGETHER SUCCESSFULLY TO ENHANCE OUR LIVES AND FAMILIES.</p> <p>I have been an entrepreneur all my life, never totally realizing that I "am". Maybe it is my impetuous nature that has kept me from a regular paycheck. This book is about my life's entrepreneurial journeys and concepts to help others succeed. I believe we all have an entrepreneur gene in our DNA and can exploit our God given talents. Post Covid working from home (at least part time) has opened the door for us to start our own business and keep a paycheck coming. I use the metaphor of a lemonade stand as the model for a startup business. It has all the fundamentals of success - it does not offer credit but collects cash, it is in a growing market (at least on a hot summer day), it does not require a bank loan, and it generates free cash flow. Of course, not all businesses can emulate this simple approach. However, the concept should stay with us in whatever we do. Well thought out ideas and projects can be implemented with little risks following common sense rubrics. There has never been a better time to buy or start or own a business. The world is changing at warp speed as technology continues to evolve. Opportunities are everywhere for services, products, and contractors. Hopefully my ideas will help your dreams come true with little risk.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>When Steve Schmitt committed to summer-collegiate baseball in a city that failed to support pro or college baseball, few expected him to succeed. Here's the inside story of how the Madison Mallards became summer-collegiate baseball's top draw, changed the face of the sport and brought new life to a downtrodden neighborhood and ballpark.</p> <p>Expected to fail in their inaugural 2001 season, the Madison Mallards soon became summer-collegiate baseball's most popular team. Since 2002, the Mallards have become the biggest box-office hit among hundreds of similar teams nationwide, drawing more than 4.3 million fans in team history. <strong>Baseball Like It Oughta Be</strong> is the phenomenal story of how owner Steve Schmitt, a rural Wisconsin shoe sales marvel, and his young, aggressive staff turned dust into gold. Celebrating their 25th year, the Mallards have an entertaining and hilarious history that combines marketing prowess, customer service and anything-goes promotions with stories ranging from Gary Coleman's outrageous appearance to slugger Pete Alonso's amazing season as a Mallard. Schmitt and team president Vern Stenman turned a downtrodden ballpark into a must-experience destination. The Mallards never went bananas on the field, churning out future pro players. Along the way, they've become one of America's most extraordinary sports teams.</p> <p>The Mallards story follows an owner's obsession; the dreamland of a young marketing director, who quit an NHL front-office job; relentless customer service for their fans; fresh promotions annually; belief in what many viewed as a struggling neighborhood; and the embracement of America's least likely renowned ballpark.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

This Fasting Takes Place During The Day【電子書籍】[ Bettina Gatlin ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】This Fasting Takes Place During The Day【電子書籍】[ Bettina Gatlin ]

<p>If you know someone in Southeast Uganda who is having a baby next year, pray with all your heart that the baby won't be born in May. Because if so, there's more than a 20% chance of the baby being born in May. will lose the ability to see, hear or learn as an adult.</p> <p>After 3 years, giving birth to a baby in May is normal. But the danger only moves, it does not disappear; April will now be the most worrying month.</p> <p>What could cause this strange phenomenon? Before you answer, consider this: a similar phenomenon was discovered halfway around the world, in Michigan. In fact, babies born in May may be at even higher risk in Michigan than in Uganda.</p> <p>Economists Douglas Almond and Bhashkar M have a simple answer to this strange and disturbing phenomenon: Ramadan.</p> <p>Some areas in the state of Michigan have large Muslim populations, as do Southeast Uganda. Islam's precept is not to eat or drink during the day during Ramadan. The majority of Muslim women participate even while pregnant; This fasting takes place during the day from sunrise to sunset. By analyzing birth data from this region over many years, scientists Almond and M concluded: most fetuses born during the month of Ramadan suffer the consequences of fasting throughout the process. development process. The severity depends on what stage of pregnancy the child is in when Ramadan occurs. The most serious consequences occur when the mother fasts in the first month of pregnancy, but they can still occur if the mother fasts at any time until the 8th month.</p> <p>Islam uses the lunar calendar, so Ramadan begins 11 days earlier each year. In 2009, it took place from August 21 to September 19, making May 2010 the unluckiest month to be born. Three years later, Ramadan will take place from July 20, so April of the following year will become the riskiest birth month. This risk is even greater when Ramadan occurs in the summer because there will be more daylight hours, so the time without food will be longer. That's why in Michigan, - where daylight is up to 15 hours long in the summer compared to Uganda, which is near the equator and therefore has roughly the same number of daylight hours at all times of the year, - These effects are larger.</p> <p>It is not an exaggeration to say that a person's entire life can be greatly influenced by the luck of his or her birth, that luck could be time, place or circumstances. Even animals can be affected by the luck of their birth. Kentucky, a center for thoroughbred horse breeding, was hit by a puzzling disease in 2001 that left 500 foals stillborn and more than 3,000 fetuses stillborn. By 2004, as a result of that epidemic, the number of 3-year-old colts was reduced; 2 of the 3 Triple Crown races were won by Smarty Jones, a colt whose mother was inseminated in Kentucky but was returned home to Pennsylvania before the epidemic.</p> <p>These effects are not as rare as you might think. Douglas Almond carefully studied US population data from 1960 to 1980 and found a group of people who were terribly unlucky throughout their lives. They suffer from many diseases and have lower average incomes than those born just a few months before or after them. They stand in the population records like a layer of volcanic dust standing out on an archaeological record, a thin line of ominousness between two thick patches of normality.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Harold Innis’s Final Course【電子書籍】[ Lance Strate ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Harold Innis’s Final Course【電子書籍】[ Lance Strate ]

<p>In 1952, a terminally ill Harold Innis asked his closest intellectual confidant, Tom Easterbrook, to teach his signature course on communications on his behalf. With Innis’s premature death, the course turned out to be both Innis’s final course and the first course <em>on</em> Innis.</p> <p>Alongside Edward Comor’s detailed Introduction, Easterbrook’s previously unknown lectures clarify aspects of Innisian scholarship that have been obscured, neglected, or forgotten. These include Easterbrook’s understanding that Innis applied his concept of bias more broadly than most realize, that through references to media Innis strategically sought to promote certain values, and that Innis had become increasingly interested in the role played by institutions such as language, law, and the nation.</p> <p>Given Easterbrook’s intimate understanding of Innis’s methodology and research trajectories, this book is a rich resource for anyone interested in Innis and the foundations of media ecology.</p> <p>"Edward Comor’s book is like a time machine that takes us on a trip to 1950s-era University of Toronto and to the final days of the late, great Harold Innis. It provides an intimate and detailed window into the research and teaching of a scholar widely considered to be a pioneer in the field of media ecology. This book is highly recommended and an essential read for all of those interested in the history of communications technology."</p> <p>ーRon Deibert, Professor of Political Science and Director of the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab</p> <p>"Before his untimely death in 1952, Harold Innis wrote some of the most important works in communications studies in North America. In addition to his published scholarship, Innis presented his ideas to undergraduates at the University of Toronto through a course that his former PhD student Tom Easterbrook took over when his health failed. By assembling and contextualizing course materials and by drawing from conversations between Innis and Easterbrook during the preceding summer, Edward Comor gives scholars a fascinating window into Innis’s pedagogical approach, his end-of-life concerns, as well as what for Innis remained unfinished. Through Comor’s extensive introduction and the publication of Easterbrook’s lectures for the course, readers also will gain understanding as to how Innis communicated his ideas and how he was interpreted by students ? both those in the class and Easterbrook."</p> <p>ーMichael Stamm, Chair and Professor, Department of History, Michigan State University</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

THE WAY OF ALLOWANCE THE ABE COMMENTARIES VOL.3【電子書籍】[ Kingsley L. Dennis ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】THE WAY OF ALLOWANCE THE ABE COMMENTARIES VOL.3【電子書籍】[ Kingsley L. Dennis ]

<p><em>The Way of Allowance</em> is the third volume in the 'Way Back Home' series that continues the extraordinary exploration into the nature of existence. This exploration is based on the understanding that humanity has contact with a unified field of consciousness that exists beyond matter and physical life. The commentaries in this third volume are based upon a set of communications with the unified consciousness known as 'ABE' (short for 'an abbreviation of pure consciousness') and are based on sessions from January 2019 until the end of July 2019.</p> <p>Volume Three contains material that mostly arrived as 'nudges' - or unsolicited communications. These nudges appeared infrequently at first, as a few sporadic communications in January, February, and March. However, by April 2019 they were becoming more frequent and by May they were arriving almost daily. These 'almost daily' nudges then continued throughout the summer. Volume Three covers the first seven months of 2019, until the end of July. Although 'received' several years ago, it feels that many of the communications, especially those dealing with the issues of entanglement with the chaotic energies of external life, are now more appropriate for the present moment. There is no doubt that these communications are <em>for these times</em>. Where we are heading, as individuals and as a planetary species, may not be exactly mapped out - for few roads are traversed with certainty - yet the way ahead has been understood, and perhaps foreseen. In the end, the way ahead is none other than the Way Back Home.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
