Beschreibung

In "The Story of Butler's Rangers and the Settlement of Niagara," E. Cruikshank meticulously chronicles the formation of Butler's Rangers, a Loyalist militia during the American Revolutionary War, and their pivotal role in the settlement of the Niagara region. Employing a blend of archival research and vivid narrative, Cruikshank provides a comprehensive examination of the socio-political dynamics of the time, as well as the struggles faced by settlers in an era marked by conflict and change. The book's literary style reflects a balance between scholarly rigor and engaging storytelling, making it accessible to both historians and general readers interested in early Canadian history. E. Cruikshank was a dedicated historian with a profound interest in Loyalist narratives and the formative years of Canada. His extensive research in local archives and engagement with community histories illuminated the importance of Butler's Rangers in shaping the Niagara landscape. Cruikshank's passion for uncovering forgotten voices and events from the past underscores the significance of the Loyalist experience in Canadian identity. This book is an essential read for anyone fascinated by the complex interactions between military history and settlement in North America. Through Cruikshank's illuminating lens, readers will gain a deeper understanding of the cultural heritage of Niagara and the enduring impacts of loyalty in a tumultuous era.

    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
    This is a summary, & it does not accompany the official 
    In 'The End of the World Is Just the Beginning' by Peter Zeihan, the author examines the unraveling of globalization, a phenomenon characterized by increasing speed, efficiency, and affordability of global trade and supply chains, largely driven by America. However, Zeihan argues that this era is coming to an end as America withdraws from its role in sustaining it. He highlights the critical role played by the U.S. Navy, the American dollar, and American consumer demand supporting global systems. 
    Zeihan predicts a future where nations must become self-reliant in producing goods, food, energy, and security due to shrinking and aging populations. He emphasizes that only a select few countries can adapt to this new reality, leading to a profound transformation in how the world manufactures products, grows food, generates energy, and manages global logistics. 
    In this thought-provoking and somewhat alarming book, Zeihan takes readers on a journey into a world on the brink of significant change, offering insights, humor, and his unique perspective on the future.

    Imitation: The Basics is an engaging introduction to the topic of imitation behavior in humans, providing a summary of existing scientific research on imitation, covering everything from examples of imitation across each developmental stage to animal imitation such as monkeys imitating each other. 
     
     
     
    The authors argue that imitation forms the foundation of long-lasting relationships, including those between children and parents, as well as intimate partners. Structured to resemble a human lifetime, chapters explore the reasons behind why people imitate, and address imitation across all phases of life, starting from infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and ending with late adulthood. The authors describe characteristic forms of imitation that occur in these life stages and provide answers to the following important questions: Who do humans imitate? Who is more likely to imitate others? What kind of behaviors do humans imitate? Is there a dark side of imitation? When do humans imitate each other? And are there cultural differences in imitation? 
     
     
     
    Written in a clear and accessible style, this book is perfect for undergraduate students of social psychology, developmental psychology and neuroscience, as well as professionals, academics and any general listeners interested in research about human social behavior.

    It's not just what you say, but how you say it. Good communicators know this, but it's often easier said than done. Teachers, leaders, and speakers are often left bewildered, wondering why the content that was so carefully planned and delivered seems to fall flat with the audience. The art of communication requires more than the transfer of information; it both connects with and engages the hearer. To communicate well, speakers must understand both their audience and themselves. 
     
     
     
    Speaking by the Numbers offers a strategy that combines communication principles with Enneagram wisdom to help leaders, pastors, and teachers understand how to convey content in ways that both inspire and connect with their audiences. Using the Enneagram wisdom of triads and stances, communicators can learn insight into the ways that various Enneagram numbers receive and process information. Sean Palmer draws from his extensive experience as a public speaker to develop communication strategies that lead to connection, transformation, and mobilization of audiences. Providing real examples of speeches he has given, Palmer shows how he uses the Enneagram to craft a message that connects with his audience. 
     
     
     
    A healthy marriage of Enneagram wisdom and communication skill can help us speak with clarity into the heart of where people live, love, and experience life.
