Описание: While Haiti established the second independent nation in the Western Hemisphere and was the first black country to gain independence from European colonizers, its history is not well known in the Anglophone world. The Haiti Reader introduces readers to Haiti's dynamic history and culture from the viewpoint of Haitians from all walks of life. Its dozens of selections—most of which appear here in English for the first time—are representative of Haiti's scholarly, literary, religious, visual, musical, and political cultures, and range from poems, novels, and political tracts to essays, legislation, songs, and folk tales. Spanning the centuries between precontact indigenous Haiti and the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake, the Reader covers widely known episodes in Haiti's history, such as the U.S. military occupation and the Duvalier dictatorship, as well as overlooked periods such as the decades immediately following Haiti's “second independence” in 1934. Whether examining issues of political upheaval, the environment, or modernization, The Haiti Reader provides an unparalleled look at Haiti's history, culture, and politics.

The strength of the soil can be measured by the friction and aggregation found in it. It plays a crucial role in geotechnical engineering. For all those who are interested in soil mechanics, this book can prove to be an essential guide. Constant effort has been made to make the understanding of the concepts of soil mechanics as easy and informative as possible, for the readers.
Описание: Intending at first simply to do further research on the mid-seventeenth-century ""sugar revolution"" in Barbados, Russell Menard traveled to the island. But once there, he quickly found many discrepancies between the historical understanding of the way in which this ""revolution"" fueled the institution of slavery and the actual, quotidian, records documenting the prominence of slavery on the island even before sugar spurred its economic growth. In Sweet Negotiations: Sugar, Slavery, and Plantation Agriculture in Early Barbados, Menard reveals that black slaveryís emergence in Barbados actually preceded the rise of sugar; in doing so he both reverses the long-held understanding of slavery as a consequence of the islandís economic boom and repositions the impact that this surge of slavery had on Americaís slave trade.Based on fresh archival research conducted on the island and in England, Sweet Negotiations shows that Barbados was well on its way to becoming a plantation colony and a slave society before sugar emerged as the dominant crop. Menard sheds new light on the origins of the integrated plantation, gang labor, the slave economy, agricultural productivity, the organization of commerce, and the character of the planters who built the sugar industry. Despite its small size (166 square miles) and distant location, Barbados loomed large in England's American empire. With Menard's findings, the islandís importance becomes that much more pronounced: because Barbados was a major site for the development and dissemination of the slave plantation system in the Americas, Menard's correction of the historical record has implications that reach far beyond the tiny island's shores.

Описание: Once upon a time, there was a man who believed in an ethical code of conduct when communicating. "Don't Be a Dick" started out as an inside joke, used towards people who's behaviour would hinder communication. Over time, this man discovered a growing epidemic. There was an overwhelming amount of people sabotaging conversations regularly. The concept of "Don't be Dick" could no longer remain unwritten. He forged three rules and categorized behaviours directly responsible for communication breakdowns. It is a concept he has adopted in his every day life to promote healthy communication.

Описание:
The Sun is bright this morning, laying low in the sky this February morning. Temps are in the twenty's and a perfect day to peer through the back window of our cape cod style home and reflect on days gone by. For many, this would bring heartache and sorrow due to the loss of a loved one. For me it brings mixed emotions as today is the day I release a story written over seven years. "The BenAddiction" is a book about hope, about love, about a community's desire to save a life tied to addiction.
Through the seven year journey an amazing story unfolds, including the gifts and blessings bestowed upon a family from a community reeling from loss. The book speaks about the darkest of times in a family's life, and how through that battle, they emerge more alive and grateful for life than ever before. They see life ever so differently now and recognize the power of faith and God in their life's.
Hindsight being 20/20, reveals the daily miracles that occurred over the seven years to bring this family from bondage to a place that has new meaning for them. With the gifts of compassion and understanding bestowed, their daily life is profoundly changed. A small rural community has rallied to help a family save a life and the lives that emerged from those darkest of days would bring light to others.
It speaks about a Perfect Storm, when Opiate Addiction and Cancer collided to create a concoction of formidable human resolve to beat both diseases. It speaks to the heart through raw emotions. It talks of God's grace given to many, even though some have appeared to have lost all. It looks at two incredibly strong women who have lost sons and how they took that pain and offered more love and light to others then most could fathom.
A book that started out to be critical of addicts and perfused with warnings to stay clear, morphed into a story that begs that we engage in this and other life's most difficult challenges, only through that engagement do we grow, while finding and supplying blessings more abundantly

Описание: John C. Fr?mont was the most celebrated explorer of his era. In 1842, on the first of five expeditions he would lead to the Far West, Fr?mont and a small party of men journeyed up the Kansas and Platte Rivers to the Wind River Range in Wyoming. At the time, virtually this entire region was known as the Great Desert, and many Americans viewed it and the Rocky Mountains beyond as natural barriers to the United States. After Congress published Fr?mont’s official report of the expedition, however, few doubted the nation should expand to the Pacific. The first in-depth study of this remarkable report, Sight Unseen argues that Fr?mont used both a radical form of art and an imaginary map to create an aesthetic desire for expansion. He not only redefined the Great Desert as a novel and complex environment, but on a summit of the Wind River Range, he envisioned the Continental Divide as a feature that would unify rather than impede a larger nation. In addition to provoking the great migration to Oregon and providing an aesthetic justification for the National Park system, Fr?mont’s report profoundly altered American views of geography, progress, and the need for a transcontinental railroad. By helping to shape the very notion of Manifest Destiny, the report became one of the most important documents in the history of American landscape.
