Sinopsis

Erasers and Mistakes explores the fascinating history of erasers, revealing how this seemingly simple tool has profoundly shaped education and our approach to mistakes. Before erasers, removing pencil marks involved messy methods like using bread crumbs, which often damaged the paper. 

 
The book examines how the invention of rubber erasers revolutionized error correction, fostering a culture of experimentation and revision in learning and creativity. The book traces the historical development of erasers, from early natural materials to the rubber erasers and the eventual pencil-eraser combination. It delves into the impact of erasers on educational practices and teaching methodologies. 

 
By understanding the historical development and cultural impact of erasers, readers gain a new appreciation for their role in our daily lives and in the broader context of technology and education. The book begins with primitive erasing methods and progresses to the discovery of rubber and its application in erasers. Later chapters detail the technology's evolution and the eraser's influence on education, artistic expression, and attitudes toward perfectionism. 

 
Erasers and Mistakes provides a unique lens through which to view societal changes and the psychology of learning, making it a valuable resource for educators and anyone interested in the history of invention.

Meditations

Marcus Aurelius

Meditations is a series of personal writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor from 161 to 180 AD, recording his private notes to himself and ideas on Stoic philosophy.Marcus Aurelius wrote the 12 books of the Meditations in Koine Greek as a source for his own guidance and self-improvement. It is possible that large portions of the work were written at Sirmium, where he spent much time planning military campaigns from 170 to 180. Some of it was written while he was positioned at Aquincum on campaign in Pannonia, because internal notes tell us that the first book was written when he was campaigning against the Quadi on the river Granova (modern-day Hron) and the second book was written at Carnuntum.It is unlikely that Marcus Aurelius ever intended the writings to be published and the work has no official title, so "Meditations" is one of several titles commonly assigned to the collection. These writings take the form of quotations varying in length from one sentence to long paragraphs.The Meditations is divided into 12 books that chronicle different periods of Aurelius' life. Each book is not in chronological order and it was written for no one but himself. The style of writing that permeates the text is one that is simplified, straightforward, and perhaps reflecting Aurelius' Stoic perspective on the text. Depending on the English translation, Marcus' style is not viewed as anything regal or belonging to royalty, but rather a man among other men, which allows the reader to relate to his wisdom.

Do you struggle to set boundaries with others in your life? Has your past conditioned you to expect pushback when setting boundaries, or caused you to give up on trying to set boundaries altogether?

There is a science to creating boundaries—one that will empower you, deepen your connection with others, and improve your self-esteem. 
 
 
 
Setting Boundaries That Stick offers a scientific, neurobiological approach to boundary work. This unique guide will teach you to set healthy boundaries from the inside out by cultivating an "integrated brain," which allows you to respond to others with intention, rather than simply reacting based on instinct.

It's time to set boundaries in a way that empowers you to protect yourself, while also improving your relationships. By working from the inside out, this book will help you set healthy boundaries that actually stick.
