  Women of Ancient Egypt -...

  The role of women in Ancient Egyptian society was multifaceted, reflecting the complex and dynamic culture of this ancient civilization. Women in Egypt held a relatively high status compared to their counterparts in many other ancient cultures. They were considered equal to men in certain aspects, such as the ability to own property, initiate divorce, and partake in religious rituals. Women were also key figures in the household, and their roles in family and social structures were crucial for the stability and prosperity of Egyptian society. 
  One of the most notable aspects of the role of women in Ancient Egypt was their legal rights. Egyptian women had the legal ability to own land, businesses, and wealth, which provided them with a level of autonomy not commonly found in other ancient societies. This was particularly significant in a culture where family wealth and land were vital to survival and success. In cases of divorce or widowhood, women could retain ownership of their property, and were often entitled to a share of the family’s wealth. Women could also inherit property from their parents, and daughters were not excluded from inheritance as they often were in other cultures. 
  In the social realm, women had significant responsibilities within the family unit. They were primarily responsible for managing household duties, including the care of children, food preparation, and the overall maintenance of the home. These tasks, while often perceived as domestic, were essential to the functioning of society. Women also played important roles as mothers and caregivers, which was highly valued in Egyptian culture. The ideal woman in Egypt was often depicted as a loving and devoted mother, and this image was reflected in religious texts, art, and literature.

  Champagne Charlie - The...

  Champagne Charlie tells the story of a dashing young Frenchman, Charles Heidsieck, who introduced hard-drinking Americans to champagne in the mid-nineteenth century and became famously known as Champagne Charlie. Ignoring critics who warned that America was a dangerous place to do business, Heidsieck plunged right in, considering it "the land of opportunity" and succeeding there beyond his wildest dreams. Those dreams, however, became a nightmare when the Civil War erupted and he was imprisoned and nearly executed after being charged with spying for the Confederacy. 
   
   
   
  Only after the Lincoln administration intervened was Heidsieck saved, but his champagne business had gone bankrupt and was virtually dead. Then, miraculously, Heidsieck became owner of nearly half the city of Denver, the fastest-growing city in the West. By selling the land, Heidsieck was eventually able to resurrect his business to its former glory. 
   
   
   
  For all its current-day glamour, effervescence, and association with the high life, champagne had a lackluster start. It was pale red in color, insipid in taste, and completely flat. Champagne's success can be traced back to King Louis XV and his mistress Madame de Pompadour, Napoleon Bonaparte, countless wars and prohibitions, and, most important to the United States, Charles Heidsieck.

  Hispanic Market Power -...

  The United States Hispanic segment represents the most prominent demographic growth in the country, and a huge and untapped business opportunity for companies willing to move away from preconceived notions and market effectively to Hispanic customers. This book shows you how. 
   
   
   
  Now more than ever, corporations operating in the United States should see the Hispanic population at the core of their existing and future strategies, but many leaders believe Hispanic marketing is the same marketing you run for Anglos but translated into Spanish, or that all Hispanics are undocumented immigrants with no purchasing power, or that using Mariachis in their communications is the way to connect with this diverse segment. It's time for a modern approach, and Isaac Mizrahi, one of the country's leading voices in multicultural marketing, uses his experience as a corporate executive, agency CEO, and industry leader to help businesses grow by leveraging the Hispanic consumer segment to drive sales. 
   
   
   
  Filled with straightforward talk, illustrative case studies, and pragmatic suggestions and recommendations, this book counterbalances academic books on the topic with little connection to reality and other books with a more political standpoint. This is a business book created by a marketer for other marketers and business leaders looking to succeed.

  The Metoo Movement - Fighting...

  The MeToo movement has become one of the most significant social movements of the 21st century, capturing the global attention of millions and reshaping conversations around sexual harassment, assault, and gender inequality. What began as a simple hashtag in 2006, introduced by activist Tarana Burke, has evolved into a global call to action, leading to widespread awareness, conversations, and systemic changes regarding how society addresses sexual violence. The movement’s resonance stems from its powerful message: sexual harassment and assault are widespread issues that affect women and marginalized groups across all sectors of society, from entertainment to politics, from workplaces to homes. 
  The origins of MeToo lie in a need for a platform where survivors of sexual violence could share their experiences and find solidarity. Tarana Burke’s original vision was to create a supportive community for women of color who had experienced abuse and harassment. However, it was not until 2017, when the hashtag #MeToo went viral following allegations against Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein, that the movement gained immense global traction. What followed was a wave of survivors coming forward, recounting their own stories of harassment, abuse, and trauma. The hashtag quickly became a symbol of empowerment, solidarity, and strength, with millions of people around the world joining in to share their experiences, stand in support of others, and demand change. 
    
  The digital age played a crucial role in amplifying the voices of survivors. Social media platforms, particularly Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, provided a space for individuals to share their stories without the barriers of traditional media. The power of the hashtag allowed voices from all walks of life, from ordinary individuals to high-profile celebrities, to unite in a way that was impossible before.
