Sinopse

"Men Enjoy Hobbies" explores the rise of male leisure in 1960s America, a period of significant social change. Fueled by post-war economic growth and emerging retirement trends, men found themselves with unprecedented free time, prompting a re-evaluation of traditional masculinity. The book examines how this newfound leisure impacted American society, delving into the burgeoning hobby industry and its role in shaping male identity. It reveals how shifts in work-life balance allowed men to explore activities like woodworking and model trains, driving new forms of self-expression. The study offers unique insights into how consumer culture responded to these shifts. The work begins by establishing the demographic and economic conditions that fostered the rise of male leisure, transitions into an examination of the social and psychological impact of this newfound freedom, and finishes with an examination of the societal impact of these trends. The book analyzes retirement data, sociological studies, and advertising campaigns to provide a nuanced understanding of the era. By combining quantitative data with qualitative analysis, "Men Enjoy Hobbies" provides a compelling look at the evolving roles of men in society, the impact on family dynamics, and the creation of new avenues for self-fulfillment. The book’s exploration of male leisure and its connection to broader social trends makes it a valuable resource for those interested in American social history and the evolution of gender roles.

    Will we choose life for our children and the future of our planet? Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth: Extreme weather patterns wreak havoc. Pollutants sour soils and waterways. Fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, the solutions can’t come through the same systems that created those problems. ​ Ecological justice requires us to challenge our assumptions about creation and our relationship to it. It requires decolonization. We must turn to the leadership of Indigenous communities who struggle for all life as land and water protectors, and we must call on people of faith to join them—to confront climate change and resource extraction and choose life for our children and the future of our planet. This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus.

    For many years, Camilla was portrayed in a poor light, blamed by the public for the break-up of the marriage between Prince Charles and Lady Diana. Initially, Queen Elizabeth refused to see or speak to her, but, since the death of Prince Philip, Camilla had become one of the Queen's closest companions. Her confidence in Camilla and the transformation she had seen in Prince Charles since their wedding resulted in her choosing the first day of her Platinum Jubilee year to tell the world that she wanted Camilla to be Queen Consort, not the demeaning Princess Consort suggested in 2005. 
     
     
     
    Angela Levin uncovers Camilla's rocky journey to be accepted by the royal family and how she coped with her brutal portrayal in Netflix's The Crown. The public have witnessed her tremendous contribution to help those in need, especially during COVID. Levin has talked to many of Camilla's long-term friends, her staff, and executives from the numerous charities of which Camilla is patron. She reveals why Camilla concentrates on previously taboo subjects, such as domestic violence and rape. Most of all, Levin tells the story of how Camilla has changed from a fun-loving young woman to one of the senior royals' hardest workers. She has retained her mischievous sense of humor, becoming a role model for older women and an inspiration for younger ones.
