Beschreibung

In June 2023, writer Dan Rubinstein lashed camping gear to his stand-up paddleboard and embarked on an improbable solo voyage from Ottawa to Montreal, New York City, Toronto, and back to Ottawa along the rivers, lakes, and canals of a landlocked region. Over 1,200 miles and 10 weeks, he explored the healing potential of “blue space” — the aquatic equivalent of green space — and sought out others drawn to their local waters.
		 
But the farther Rubinstein paddled, the more he realized that being in, on, or around water does more than boost our mental and physical health and prompt stewardship toward the natural world. He discovered that blue spaces are also a way to connect with the kaleidoscopic cross-section of people he met and the diverse geographies and communities he passed through.
		 
Weaving together research, interviews, and an unmacho, malodorous, anticolonial adventure tale, Water Borne shows us that we don’t need an epic journey to find solutions to so many modern challenges. Repair and renewal may be close at hand: just add water.

    In this lecture Robert Anton Wilson speaks of how we think we all know who we are. You are living in your own reality that you are creating. Everybody has a vision of themselves that they have created. Where in relationships the other person has an entirely different vision of you are as a person. Strangers see you completely different from how you view yourself. Which is the real you? Certainly not the you that you know. Our knowledge of ourselves is usually tremendously delusional and most people don't actually know the real them.

    In Watching Sarah Rise, Jenny Briggs shares her experience parenting her daughter Sarah, a feisty girl who has a unique genetic blueprint and is on the autism spectrum. At age four Sarah was non-verbal, her eye contact was decreasing, she was in diapers, and eating was a struggle. Determined to help her daughter thrive, Jenny trained at the Autism Treatment Center of America to run a Son-Rise Program, an approach based on connection, love, and play that is aimed at fostering social connection and language. Calling her program Sarah-Rise, Jenny enlisted the help of a small fleet of volunteers to spend hours of one-on-one time with Sarah. Accompany Jenny as Sarah's language explodes, her eye contact improves, and she learns to play games, play imaginatively, use the potty, eat healthily, read, and write a momentous journey that will warm your heart and knock your socks off.

    This book contains three titles: 
    - The Rise of Nazi Germany: The rise of Nazi Germany is a tale deeply rooted in the tumultuous conditions following World War I, when Germany was thrust into a period of economic collapse, social disarray, and political chaos. The Treaty of Versailles, signed in 1919, aimed to punish Germany for its role in the war, imposing harsh reparations and territorial losses that humiliated the nation. This punitive treaty left the German people feeling betrayed, their economy in ruins, and their national pride shattered. The Weimar Republic, established in 1919, was meant to provide a democratic alternative, but it struggled from the outset. 
    - The Holocaust: The devastating events of World War II, particularly the Holocaust, left an indelible mark on the history of humanity. This chapter sets the stage for understanding the roots of hatred that led to one of the most horrific genocides in human history, and the role of ordinary people in shaping the course of events during the war. The Holocaust was not just an isolated act of mass murder; it was the culmination of a complex set of political, social, and cultural factors that had been brewing for decades.  
    - Nuremberg Trials: The Nuremberg Trials were a series of military tribunals held after World War II to prosecute prominent leaders of Nazi Germany for crimes committed during the war. These trials were a defining moment in the history of international law and marked the first time that individuals were held accountable on an international stage for atrocities committed by a regime. The trials took place in the city of Nuremberg, Germany, from 1945 to 1949, and were conducted by the Allied powers—the United States, the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom, and France—who sought to bring justice to the victims of the Holocaust, forced labor, and widespread destruction caused by the Nazis.
