Описание: A delightful 1938 novel about a governess and the night-club singer who employs her. Preface by Henrietta Twycross-Martin.
Join motivational speaker, author, and entrepreneur Tru Pettigrew for an enlightening exploration of the millennial generation-and the means of building connections with its members.
Millennials Revealed serves two critical purposes: First, it provides a blueprint for businesses and organizations to connect with, engage, or employ members of the millennial generation. Second, it gives millennials themselves the necessary tools to fully understand their lives and their goals.
Using extensive research and incorporating many lively case studies, this guide relies upon seven key concepts that define millennial expectations for themselves, their relationships, and their career endeavors. Pettigrew conveniently describes these concepts as the "7 Cs," walking readers through each one and its place in the millennial definition of success.
The author also includes specific exercises with proposed action steps for understanding members of this dynamic and uniquely powerful generation, encouraging millennials to gain a better understanding of themselves by digging beyond surface and material wants-and finally understanding their core desires and motivations.
Anyone interested in connecting with people between the ages of eighteen and thirty-four, including millennials themselves, will find useful tips in bridging generational gaps and expectations.

Описание: In the years following the Glorious Revolution, independent slave traders challenged the charter of the Royal African Company by asserting their natural rights as Britons to trade freely in enslaved Africans. In this comprehensive history of the rise and fall of the RAC, William A. Pettigrew grounds the transatlantic slave trade in politics, not economic forces, analyzing the ideological arguments of the RAC and its opponents in Parliament and in public debate. Ultimately, Pettigrew powerfully reasons that freedom became the rallying cry for those who wished to participate in the slave trade and therefore bolstered the expansion of the largest intercontinental forced migration in history. Unlike previous histories of the RAC, Pettigrew's study pursues the Company's story beyond the trade's complete deregulation in 1712 to its demise in 1752. Opening the trade led to its escalation, which provided a reliable supply of enslaved Africans to the mainland American colonies, thus playing a critical part in entrenching African slavery as the colonies' preferred solution to the American problem of labor supply.

__________________________________ 'Darkly comic ... think Adam Kay's This is Going to Hurt but with more dead bodies (and not just human ones) and an abundance of cat shit. It's a gloriously cynical read but it's also sympathetic and deeply empathetic.' KATHY BURKE
'Superb. This hysterically funny and moving memoir of an anti-social behaviour officer is a real eye-opener that hits all the right notes' FRANKIE BOYLE __________________________________ Has your life become unbearable because the person living above you has a fondness for crack cocaine, the company of strangers and dance music? Or maybe you're a social worker, mental health nurse, police officer, firefighter, dog warden or vicar and you've been landed with someone who's a pain in the arse. Who are you going to call? That would be me: an anti-social behaviour officer.
Anti-Social is the diary of a council worker whose job is to keep his community happy, or at least away from each other's throats. That's hard enough at the best of times but when government cuts mean that hospitals, social services and police are all at breaking point, the possibility of complete chaos is never far away.
This is an urgent, timely but, most of all, hysterically funny true story of a life spent working with the people society wants to forget and the problems that nobody else can resolve. This book will make you laugh, cry and boil with rage within a single sentence. __________________________________ Perfect for fans of The Secret Barrister and Adam Kay's This is Going to Hurt. __________________________________ 'A funny, thoughtful look into one of the toughest jobs I can imagine' SHAPPI KORSANDI
'Riveting and brilliantly written... a potent cocktail of heartbreak and horror; wickedly funny, wearily endearing and absolutely enraging' CAROLINE SANDERSON, Bookseller
