Beschreibung

In "A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents: Grover Cleveland," the reader is invited into the rich tapestry of American political history through the lens of one of its most complex figures. Cleveland's literary style is characterized by clarity and directness, reflective of his pragmatic approach to governance. This compilation meticulously organizes his messages, speeches, and writings, providing a comprehensive overview of his presidency during a time of great economic and social upheaval in the late 19th century. It serves not just as a historical artifact, but also as a critical scholarly resource, illuminating themes of economic reform, civil service, and the evolving role of the federal government amid burgeoning industrialization. Grover Cleveland, the only U.S. President to serve two non-consecutive terms, approached the presidency with a commitment to integrity and a desire to combat corruption. His experiences as a reform-minded politician, along with his legal background, informed his leadership style and policy initiatives. This compilation emerges as a natural extension of his legacy, as it intricately weaves together his thoughts and reflections during a transformative era in American history. This book is essential for scholars, students, and anyone interested in understanding the nuances of presidential leadership and the foundational issues that shaped modern America. By engaging with Cleveland'Äôs writings, readers gain insights into the principles of governance and the moral dilemmas faced by leaders in a democratic society.

    Examines how settler colonial and sexist infrastructures and narratives order a resource boom 
     
     
     
    Over the past decade, new oil plays have unsettled U.S. energy landscapes and imaginaries. Settling the Boom studies how the disruptive forces of an oil boom in the northern Great Plains are contained through the extension of settler temporalities, reassertions of heteropatriarchy, and the tethering of life to the volatility of oil and its cruel optimisms. 
     
     
     
    This collection reveals the results of sustained research in Williston, North Dakota, the epicenter of the "Bakken Boom." While the boom brought a rapid influx of capital and workers, the book questions simple timelines of before and after. Instead, Settling the Boom demonstrates how the unsettling forces of an oil play resolve through normative narratives and material and affective infrastructures that support settler colonialism's violent extension and its gendered orders of time and space. Considering a wide range of evidence, from urban and regional policy, interviews with city officials, media, photography, and film, these essays analyze the ongoing material, aesthetic, and narrative ways of life and land in the Bakken.

    A friendship between an environmental historian and a chronically ill US Marine yields a powerful exploration into the toxic effects of war on the human body. 
     
     
     
    Alexander Lemons is a Marine Corps scout sniper who, after serving multiple tours during the Iraq War, returned home seriously and mysteriously ill. Joshua Howe is an environmental historian who met Lemons as a student in one of his classes. Together they have crafted a vital book that challenges us to think beyond warfare's acute violence of bullets and bombs to the "slow violence" of toxic exposure and lasting trauma. 
     
     
     
    Lemons vividly describes his time in Fallujah and elsewhere during the worst of the Iraq War, his descent into a decade-long battle with mysterious and severe sickness, and his return to health; Howe explains the many toxicities to which Lemons was exposed and their potential consequences. Together they cover the whirlwind of toxic exposures military personnel face from the things they touch and breathe in all the time. They also consider PTSD and traumatic brain injury, which are endemic among the military and cause and exacerbate all kinds of physical and mental health problems. Finally, they explore how both mainstream and alternative medicine struggle to understand, accommodate, and address the vast array of health problems among military veterans.

    Ten essays on how reading and meaningfully engaging with literature can help us live better, more purposeful lives. 
    How do we live fully? 
    How do we live successfully? 
    Adrift in an anchorless world, we often worry about where we are heading. What meaning can we hope to find our modern, secular life? The answer, Ben Hutchinson explains, can be found by looking to writers and thinkers to help us live more purposefully, more mindfully – more fully. 
    Interweaving his own (mis-)adventures with those of authors such as T.S. Eliot, Virginia Woolf, Marcel Proust and Joan Didion, On Purpose proposes ten ways in which reading and writing encourage us to ask difficult questions, project our minds into the past and future, and see ourselves and others differently. 
    Engaging, uplifting and aphoristic, this book is for anyone who has lost their sense of direction or wishes to radically transform the way they live. 
    Ben Hutchinson's On Purpose is a non-fiction collection of essays that combines philosophy, ethics, and literary criticism to explore the concept of happiness. This top-rated book is a testament to the power of literature in personal growth and self-help. 
    For fans of Mary Beard (Confronting the Classics), Gary Gutting (Talking God), Terry Eagleton (Ideology), Nedra Glover Tawwab (Set Boundaries, Find Peace), and Catherine Belsey (A Future for Criticism).

    If you experienced emotional trauma in childhood—neglect, parentification, physical or sexual abuse, or unhealthy family dynamics—your core wounds may be deep or even hidden. You may struggle with relationships, or feel like you just don't belong. And if you've sought refuge as a spiritual seeker, you may feel alienated by the dogmatic and inevitably shallow "love and light" spirituality scene that can often bypass real struggles of mental health, trauma, and loss. It's time for an in-depth approach to healing. 
     
    Ora North will lead you on a journey to uncover and better understand your shadow self, allowing you to integrate unconscious aspects of yourself, shore up repressed emotions, and tap into the self-awareness necessary to heal core wounds. You'll explore nine archetypes of the self, including the shadow self, the higher self, the wounded self, the creative self, and more. And finally, you'll discover strategies to help you continue this journey on your own, such as tapping into your intuition, energy work, inner child healing, and boundary setting. If you're seeking lasting change in your life, this book goes beyond the toxic positivity and "good vibes" only aspects of popular spirituality to help you heal the emotional wounds at your very core—allowing you to fully understand who you are, and feel truly connected with the world around you.
