Sinossi

As a boy, Fee Stubblefield promised his fiercely independent grandmother that he would never “put her in an old folks’ home.” That aspirational promise, made with love and care, would be something he always remembered—and a commitment he eventually made within the senior housing and care industry.Seeking to create vibrant and engaging communities where we can thrive in our older years, Fee has encapsulated the best insights from his years in the industry in this book. He addresses everything from how to pick the right capital partners, hiring the best people for a culture of caring, introduces the concept of aspirational promises, addresses the deep issues in the industry exposed by Covid-19 and our attitudes toward a rapidly aging population.Fee’s passion was born of an unusual upbringing as part of a family that owned and operated Lehman Hot Springs and its sacred healing waters, a metaphor for the care needed by our senior citizens. He learned business lessons, like most entrepreneurs, through the difficulties and victories of the Springs Living communities. However, regardless of the lessons—the central core of the Culture of Promise is transparency, accountability, care, respect, and a commitment to the people at the heart of that promise.

    Disclaimer: This is not the official book but a summary & it does not accompany the official. 
    Gwynne meticulously retraces the steps of the formidable Comanche nation, a tribe that rose to power with a force unparalleled in native North American history, thanks to their masterful horse riding and warrior skills. Their reign, known as the "Comanche Empire," struck fear into the hearts of Americans and Mexicans alike, shaping the course of the frontier with a brutal hand. 
    At the epicenter of this historical narrative is the incredible story of Cynthia Ann Parker, a nine-year-old girl kidnapped by the Comanche, who grows up to become the mother of Quanah Parker, the last and greatest Comanche chief. This dual biography intricately weaves the personal narratives of both Cynthia and Quanah, as they navigated a world at the crossroads of emerging American civilization and indigenous culture. 
    As you explore our summary, readers will be transported to a tumultuous period in American history, where the collision of cultures gave rise to heroism, cruelty, and the forging of the modern United States. S. C. Gwynne's masterful storytelling brings to life the flesh and blood people behind the historical figures, offering a sobering look at the realities of frontier life and the profound cost of progress. 
    Experience the gripping narratives that define "Empire of the Summer Moon," a story not just of a mother and son but of a nation struggling to birth itself through blood, battle, and sacrifice. It is a tale of endurance and the human spirit's indomitable will to survive in the face of unimaginable challenges.

    What was your experience of art in school? Was it all doilies, cheap paint, and crusty brushes? Or was it better than that but you still wondered why it seemed to be the runt of the educational litter. In this humorous, engaging, and thought-provoking book, Anna Cutler, a leading figure in art education, takes you on a journey through her personal experiences and reflections on the value of art in schools. By the end you’ll come to realise that the stakes are surprisingly high for the social, emotional, and intellectual development of our children. It is an impassioned plea to nourish, within and beyond schools, the one resource that will never run out: the human capacity to create.
     
    “Engagingly informal and on a take-it-or-leave-it basis, this wise and witty book can be absorbed quite effortlessly in one sitting. It leaves you with the sense that you’ve enjoyed one-on-one tuition from the favourite teacher you never had.”  
     
    Dr Shane Kinghorn, Manchester Metropolitan University.
     
    “I learned a great deal reading this book and laughed in all the right places. It is a powerful, persuasive ‘Call to Arts’.”

    Youth language data provides interesting perspectives on gender dynamics and gendered usage in society. However, the gender perspective has not received the deserved focus in youth language studies in Africa. This is partly due to the general perception that youth languages and classic youth language practices, such as slang and anti-language, are male-oriented. 
    
    This collected volume focuses on gender dynamics and gendered usage in African youth languages and youth language practices, against the backdrop of urbanity as well as rurality. With representations from different parts of Africa, the volume examines sundry youth usage in different contexts and domains. While avoiding strict binarizations and potentially flawed dichotomies, the contributing scholars observe some of the motivations for different gender performatives and how these manifest in a variety of language forms and through predominated categories of use. Data samples were obtained through sociolinguistic and anthropological instruments, ranging from questionnaires and structured interviews to street-based observations and corpus analyses. 
    
    On the whole, the volume engages the literature and debate on language, youth, and especially on gendering dynamics in African youth language practices.

    Did you know that the first novel in the world was produced by a Japanese noblewoman? 
    Back in ancient times, the Japanese depended on Chinese characters (kanji) to write all sorts of documents and manuscripts, ranging from official letters to census records and poetry. It was only during the Heian period (794–1185 CE) that they began to create their very own writing system known today as kana. 
    The history of ancient Japan is filled with interesting events that involved many influential and legendary figures. However, some of the accounts were also infused with Japanese myths, which might make it difficult for curious readers to distinguish between facts and legends. 
    But you can safely put your concern aside. With this new Enthralling History book, you will discover an array of information and stories of the ancient Japanese, starting from the prehistoric era up until the Heian period, which saw the birth of the first samurai warriors. 
    Here’s just a small fraction of what you’ll discover:How the Jomon period earned its name and the impressive designs of early Japanese pottery.How rice cultivation first arrived in Japan and the transition into a more civilized society.The legendary kingdom of Yamatai and how it rose to power.The unique-looking kofun tombs and legends behind the persons interred within them.Vicious wars and assassinations of powerful figures in the imperial court.Interesting myths and the origins of Shinto, an indigenous Japanese religion.The flourishing culture and architecture of ancient Japan and the arrival of Buddhism.The bloody conflicts between the two earliest samurai clans.
