Sinopsis

Colonial migration's profound and lasting economic effects are the focus of "Colonial Migration Impact." This book examines how both forced and voluntary movements during the colonial era shaped global economies, leaving behind legacies of trade imbalances, economic inequality, and distinct labor markets. One key insight is how colonial policies established long-term economic structures that continue to influence wealth disparities today. The book uniquely integrates historical analysis with economic modeling to explore how these migrations created pathways impacting economic growth.

 
The book progresses by first establishing the historical context, then analyzing the economic drivers of migration, and finally assessing the long-term consequences on global trade and wealth distribution. By contrasting the experiences of voluntary settlers with those subjected to forced labor, the book highlights the exploitation of resources and the suppression of local manufacturing in colonized territories.

 
Drawing upon primary sources, economic data, and diverse colonial case studies, "Colonial Migration Impact" provides a comprehensive understanding of the complex economic ramifications of colonial migration, helping to understand modern global economics.

Saving Michael delves into issues bigger than one family's experiences and determination. Now an author and child advocate, Vellis provides a profoundly personal look into what it takes to get the best for each of the children she's had in her care.

Along the way, she details the many ups and downs, challenges and triumphs, her whole family experienced as part of the foster care system. All children deserve permanent, safe homes. The effort to obtain those for every child is a tremendous one not for the faint-hearted. But the rewards reverberate for everyone when it works.

Sightings - a collection of poetry

Gillian Bickley

GILLIAN BICKLEY was born and educated in the UK and has lived mainly in Hong Kong since 1970. The poems in Sightings are on Hong Kong, European and personal subjects, accessible to many readers, both young and old. They consider what it is like to be a human being in this modern world, drawing inspiration mainly from the people whom the writer has encountered, especially in Hong Kong.
An academic turned full-time writer, editor and publisher, Gillian invites readers and listeners to share her enjoyment of city and country, simple and complex ideas and events, and her empathy with the largely innocent people she has come across. In her trademark transparent style, she draws on events, happenings, creatures, artefacts and objects she has seen, and on places and people she has experienced in Asia, Europe, North America and Africa, as well as on stimulating and memorable books she has read.
"She has made use of everyday life situations and turned them into life lessons. Sightings inspires us to slow down and taste the sense of the city."— Ma Kwai Hung, Hong Kong.
"The poems in Sightings are witty, poignant, full of memorable images and insights and a total delight." — Professor Ken Pickering
"Sightings conveys playfulness and ironic humour. The writer displays, 'a strong ethical sense and a constant and engaging lyricism'." —Marion Bethel, Bahamian poet
Bickley has, "a talent for turning the stuff of ordinary life into poetry. She continually surprises and delights by making fresh connections between seemingly disparate situations". — Mrs Margaret Clarke, Oxfordshire.
"Gillian Bickley walks around the world with her eyes open, relishing the phenomena she passes".— Harry Guest, Honorary University Fellow, University of Exeter, UK (from his 'Preface' to Sightings).

Rethinking the Police - An...

Daniel Reinhardt

Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
A former officer grapples with the reality of our broken police culture
Our society has long been stuck in cultural and ideological battles about police brutality and the police force's broken relationship with our communities. Rethinking the Police promises to start a more hopeful conversation.
Daniel Reinhardt spent twenty-four years as a police officer near Cleveland, Ohio. He was long unaware of the ways the culture of the police department was shaping him, but gradually, through his own experiences as a police officer and through the mentorship of Black Christians in his life, his eyes were opened to a difficult truth: police brutality against racial minorities was endemic to the culture of the system itself.
In Rethinking the Police, Reinhardt lays out a history of policing in the United States, showing how it developed a culture of dehumanization, systemic racism, and brutality. But Reinhardt doesn't stop there: he offers a new model of policing based not in dominance and control but in a culture of servant leadership, with concrete suggestions for procedural justice and community policing.
