Summary

In our family we have an ardent railfan or rail enthusiast. This has led to the present book.
Rail enthusiasts are nothing new. An early trainspotter was 14-year-old Fanny Gordon, who in 1861 recorded the names of locomotives passing Westbourne Park station on the Great Western Railway.
One of the many activities of rail enthusiasts is to photograph them and part of the fun is to share the photos.
Another joy is to sit and read or page through a book or a magazine with pictures and information about trains.
This little book was put together at the request of the family railfan in order precisely to sit and look at pictures of German U-Bahn trains.
We share the opportunity and hope the reader will enjoy our selection of photos.
Available since: 02/19/2024.
Print length: 84 pages.

    Bridging Our Political Divide: How Liberals and Conservatives Can Understand Each Other and Find Common Ground is an essential contribution to a better national conversation. 
     
     
     
    Psychologist Kenneth Barish explains the sources and consistency of our political beliefs and why we continue to disagree about fundamental issues in American life. He offers antidotes to the angry, repetitive, and unproductive arguments that now dominate our political culture. Barish teaches us how to listen, think, and speak about our political opinions in a way that allows us to understand each other's concerns, resist false dichotomies and ideological certainty, see new perspectives and possibilities, and find common ground. The concluding chapter shows how we can move beyond partisan divisions toward pragmatic solutions and a better future for America's children. 
     
     
     
    This fundamentally hopeful book is an essential listen for students in all areas of study, for professionals in the fields of conflict resolution, communication, political science, and social psychology, and for anyone seeking to improve the quality of their conversations with people who may disagree with them, in both politics and in their personal relationships.

  • Beneath the Surface of Things - New and Selected Essays - cover

    Beneath the Surface of Things -...

    A timely and eclectic collection from one of the foremost thinkers of our time, "a powerful, penetrating and immensely knowledgeable writer" (The Guardian). 
     
     
     
    The essays in this collection came about during the unhurried months when one who had traveled incessantly was obliged to stay still, even as events flared on all sides in a world that never stops moving. Wade Davis brings his unique cultural perspective to such varied topics as the demonization of coca, the sacred plant of the Inca; the Great War and the birth of modernity; the British conquest of Everest; the endless conflict in the Middle East; reaching beyond climate fear and trepidation; on the meaning of the sacred. His essay, "The Unraveling of America," first published in Rolling Stone, attracted five million readers and generated 362 million social media impressions. Media interest in the story was sustained over many weeks, with interview requests coming in from twenty-three countries. 
     
     
     
    The anthropological lens, as Davis demonstrates, reveals what lies beneath the surface of things, allowing us to see, and to seek, the wisdom of the middle way, a perspective of promise and hope that all of the essays in this collection aspire to convey.

The third and final section offers a layered approach to polishing through a checklist of operations, breaking the daunting project of final revisions into many small, achievable tasks.

    The Viking Age - Raiders and...

    The story of the Vikings begins in the rugged, coastal lands of Scandinavia, where modern-day Norway, Sweden, and Denmark now stand. These northern regions, characterized by their cold climate, deep fjords, and dense forests, shaped a resilient and resourceful people. Isolated by geography and challenged by limited arable land, the early Norse communities developed a strong connection to nature, the sea, and their close-knit societies. Life in Scandinavia during the early Middle Ages was not easy, but it fostered a culture of survival, adaptability, and innovation. 
    At the heart of Viking society was a deep belief in their mythology and gods. Norse mythology offered a complex system of deities, heroes, and mythical creatures that guided the moral and spiritual lives of the people. Central figures like Odin, the wise All-Father; Thor, the thunder god and protector; and Freyja, the goddess of love and fertility, were not just worshipped but also deeply integrated into the everyday lives of the Norse. These myths were passed down through oral storytelling, poetic sagas, and ritual practices, helping to create a shared identity among the diverse Scandinavian tribes. 
    Viking society was organized into a hierarchical structure that valued strength, honor, and loyalty. At the top were the jarls, or chieftains, who held power over clans and led warriors into battle or on raids. Below them were the karls, the free farmers, craftsmen, and traders who formed the backbone of Viking communities. At the bottom were the thralls, or slaves, who were usually captured during raids or born into servitude. Despite this stratification, Viking culture emphasized personal achievement and reputation, allowing individuals to rise in status through bravery, skill, and loyalty.
