Sinopse

Bizarre Political Scandals explores the lighter side of political failures by examining real-life political mishaps that often surpass fiction. Delving into bizarre political events, the book reveals how seemingly minor incidents, like a misplaced comma or a rogue animal, can escalate into full-blown political crisis, impacting nations and shaping history. These scandals reveal the imperfections in human institutions and the potential for the unexpected to disrupt carefully laid plans.

 
The book explores political blunders from various eras and regions, providing historical context, key players, and prevailing social norms. Beginning with an introduction to political scandals, it progresses through case studies grouped thematically, such as Campaign Trail Catastrophes and International Incidents, before analyzing common threads and offering a framework for understanding these events. This approach provides a unique and accessible look at political history.

 
Drawing upon news archives, government documents, and academic studies, the book offers detailed accounts supported by verifiable facts and credible analysis. The insights from these political mishaps are applicable to risk management, crisis communication, and critical thinking in a world of constant information, making it valuable for political professionals and citizens alike.

    I asked my Year 1 class, ‘What’s the best thing that’s ever happened to you?’ 
    George Pointon asks his class a lot of questions. What do you want to be when you grow up? What do you reckon your parents do while you’re at school? Can you put that down, please? JJ, the stapler – can you put it down? 
    He’s also got a few for himself: what is he doing here? Who was he kidding, thinking he could teach? 
    But the course of true professional fulfilment never did run smooth, and there’s no backing out now. 
    In this book, George takes us along on his first year inside the messy, magical world of primary school teaching. In the company of five-year-olds – who are somehow wisdom, innocence and chaos incarnate – there is always lots to be learned. 
    In Teacher Man, George Pointon masterfully combines elements of autobiography and non-fiction to provide a candid look at education and parenting. His essays delve into the complexities of behavioural management and relationships within the school environment, offering a unique perspective on the role of educators. 
    For fans of Lucy Mangan (Bookworm), Sam Leith (The Haunted Wood), and Annie Ernaux (A Woman's Story – WINNER OF THE 2022 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE).

    Banking on Slavery - Financing...

    A sobering excavation of how deeply nineteenth-century American banks were entwined with the institution of slavery. 
     
    It’s now widely understood that the fullest expression of nineteenth-century American capitalism was found in the structures of chattel slavery. It’s also understood that almost every other institution and aspect of life then was at least entangled with—and often profited from—slavery’s perpetuation. Yet as Sharon Ann Murphy shows in her powerful and unprecedented book, the centrality of enslaved labor to banking in the antebellum United States is far greater than previously thought. 
      
    Banking on Slavery sheds light on precisely how the financial relationships between banks and slaveholders worked across the nineteenth-century South. Murphy argues that the rapid spread of slavery in the South during the 1820s and ’30s depended significantly upon southern banks’ willingness to financialize enslaved lives, with the use of enslaved individuals as loan collateral proving central to these financial relationships. She makes clear how southern banks were ready—and, in some cases, even eager—to alter time-honored banking practices to meet the needs of slaveholders. In the end, many of these banks sacrificed themselves in their efforts to stabilize the slave economy. Murphy also details how banks and slaveholders transformed enslaved lives from physical bodies into abstract capital assets. Her book provides an essential examination of how our nation’s financial history is more intimately intertwined with the dehumanizing institution of slavery than scholars have previously thought.

    "Show[s] how deep reading habits help us manage distraction and bring about individual and communal flourishing."--Christianity Today 
     
    This book helps readers develop practices that will result in deep, formative, and faithful reading so they can contribute to the flourishing of their communities and cultivate their own spiritual and intellectual depth.  
     
    The authors present reading as a remedy for three prevalent cultural vices--distraction, hostility, and consumerism--that impact the possibility of formative reading. Informed by James K. A. Smith's work on "the spiritual power of habit," Deep Reading provides resources for engaging in formative and culturally subversive reading practices that teach readers how to resist vices, love virtue, and desire the good. 
     
    Rather than emphasizing the spiritual benefits of reading specific texts such as Dante's Divine Comedy or Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, the authors focus on the practice of reading itself. They examine practices many teachers, students, and avid readers employ--such as reading lists, reading logs, and discussion--and demonstrate how such practices can be more effectively and intentionally harnessed to result in deep reading. The practices apply to any work that is meant to be read deeply.
