  Are you a survivor of childhood sexual abuse? Are you tired of the painful memories of your abuse resurfacing again and again? Do you feel shame, anger, worthlessness, fear, etc. related to the abuse? Have you ever felt that your life has no purpose? Or you are worthless? Have you ever believed that you deserved the abuse? That you'll never get over it? Or that you will never amount to anything now? Then this book is for you. 
  In this book, I share my own story, how I discovered the lies I was living, how I overcame them (along with many other detrimental effects of the abuse), and offer hope and direction along the road to recovery from childhood sexual abuse. My hope is that you can learn something from my story that may set you free from the bondage you are in and open your mind to the fact that a beautiful life is absolutely possible after abuse. 
  The most important takeaways I hope you get from this book are: knowing and believing the abuse was not your fault, happiness every single day and a beautiful, bright future is definitely possible, forgiveness is achievable, and you are simply amazing just the way you are today: All of these takeaways are 100% up to you, but don't worry, I will show you how to get there in the book and the included workbook. So, are you ready for positive change? Let's get to it!

  When Left Moves Right - The...

  Over the past two decades, postcommunist countries have witnessed a sudden shift in the electoral fortunes of their political parties: previously successful center-left parties suffered dramatic electoral defeats and disappeared from the political scene, while right-wing populist parties soared in popularity and came to power. This dynamic echoed similar processes in Western Europe and raises a question: Were these dynamics in any way connected? When Right Moves Left argues that they were. And that the root of the connection between them lies in the pro-market rebranding of the ex-communist left—the key explanatory variable. This book asserts that, though the left's pro-market shift initially led to electoral rewards, it had a less straightforward impact on left-wing parties' electoral fortunes in the long run. 
   
   
   
  The book draws upon different levels of analysis: cross-country observational data, case studies, and individual-level experimental surveys. It argues that scholars should incorporate the economic policy dimension when explaining the demise of the left and the rise of the populist right in the region. It also examines important parallels between the dynamics of Western and postcommunist countries by arguing that the idiosyncrasy of Eastern European politics has been overstated in scholarly literature.

  “two ways 
  still even today 
  written on a stone 
  as the black bird  
  flies above the tomb 
  out back  
  in the field of  
  blue and berries 
  that old woman still  
  stomping on his remains 
  over a misbehaved   
  no one has to hold the blame 
  heard he left  
  her mistake 
  guess she had 
  the whole town convinced  
  till the walking dead 
  said they need the land 
  for a parking space 
  to build something grand 
  So the city said 
  almost took a bullet to her head 
  Until she realized  
  she is not better off dead  
  so she whispered to chip 
  come snow come rain  
  I shall never leave this grave 
  and then she prayed  
  as the son gave 
  her another chance  
  to choose one of 
  two ways”

  Bryn Parry (1956–2023) was one of Britain's best-known countryside cartoonists. This re-issue of Mad Dogs and Englishmen is a superb collection of Bryn's shooting and dog cartoons. It gives an insight into a world that can really only be understood by a participant for whom it is more than a sport; it is a way of life.
