Описание:
Despite the notion of female solidarity, almost every office has its feud--usually between two women. In The Feud, a work friendship goes bad. Very bad. During the mid-nineties, the Internet was new and cell phones were rare. Nikki and Roberta employ these emerging technologies as they engage in a war of betrayals that threatens one with the loss of her boyfriend and reputation and the other with the loss of her home and family. Roberta drinks wine, Nikki smokes weed; they each have their little helpers--but can anything really help them achieve peace?
Picture a mid-'90s, suburban New York office full of saleswomen, each successful, attractive, and competitive in her own way. Add boyfriends and sex, booze and drugs...and a spat between two of the women that soon becomes a knock-down, drag-out war. Welcome to Catherine Hiller's latest, a light, lively romp of a read that will have you turning pages faster than you can say flip phone or World Wide Web.
--Cathi Hanauer, New York Times bestselling author of Gone and The Bitch is Back
Roberta and Nikki begin as office friends, but the relationship soon curdles, turning the two into rivals and finally bitter enemies. Shrewd-eyed, sharp and stylish, The Feud exposes the dark secrets of women in the workplace with assurance, intelligence and wit.
--Yona Zeldis McDonough, author of The House on Primrose Pond and fiction editor, Lilith
Catherine Hiller weaves a story of intrigue and revenge and shows us how women can cause each other piercing pain when they attack from behind. The Feud delivers emotional intensity and a realistic portrayal of the darkest side of female relationships.
--Kathi Elster, Co-Author of Mean Girls at Work and Working With You Is Killing Me
Catherine Hiller takes on an ancient theme--the feud between women--with humor, grace and verve.
--Roxana Robinson, author of Cost and Sparta and former Authors Guild President

Описание:
Resting on a convincing body of evidence that violence is not a necessary component of conflict among states and between states and non-state actors, World BEYOND War asserts that war itself can be ended. We humans have lived without war for most of our existence and most people live without war most of the time. Warfare arose about 10,000 years ago (only 5% of our existence as Homo Sapiens) and spawned a vicious cycle as peoples, fearing attack by militarized states, found it necessary to imitate them; and so began the cycle of violence that has culminated in the last 100 years in a condition of permawar. War now threatens to destroy civilization as weapons have become ever more destructive. However, in the last 150 years, revolutionary new knowledge and methods of nonviolent conflict management have been developing that lead us to assert that it is time to end warfare and that we can do so by mobilizing millions around a global effort.
Here you will find the pillars of war which must be taken down so that the whole edifice of the War System can collapse, and here are the foundations of peace, already being laid, on which we will build a world where everyone will be safe.
This book presents a comprehensive blueprint for peace rooted in three broad strategies for humanity to end war: 1) demilitarizing security, 2) managing conflicts without violence, and 3) creating a culture of peace. These are the interrelated components of our system: the frameworks, processes, tools and institutions necessary for dismantling the war machine and replacing it with a peace system that will provide a more assured common security.
The 2018-19 Edition of AGSS was edited and updated by Tony Jenkins, PhD - Education Director, World BEYOND War; Managing Director, International Institute on Peace Education; Coordinator, Global Campaign for Peace Education; Adjunct Professor of Justice and Peace Studies at Georgetown and George Washington University.
