Sinossi

Civic Participation Levels explores the varying degrees of civic engagement and volunteerism across different nations, seeking to understand why some societies thrive while others struggle with apathy. It examines how citizens interact with their governments and communities, focusing on participation in civic organizations, volunteerism, and political processes. The book highlights that variations in civic participation are not random but are influenced by institutional frameworks, socio-economic factors, and cultural attitudes. One intriguing insight is the significant impact of trust in government on promoting civic participation, demonstrating that higher trust levels correlate with increased engagement. This book analyzes large-scale international surveys and case studies to provide both quantitative and qualitative insights. It examines the impact of government policies on volunteerism and investigates the role of digital technologies in shaping contemporary civic action. By integrating perspectives from political science, sociology, and economics, the book offers a holistic understanding of civic behavior. The book progresses from establishing a theoretical framework to examining case studies and proposing actionable policies to promote broader civic engagement. Civic Participation Levels stands out due to its integrated approach, combining quantitative analysis of global datasets with qualitative case studies. This allows for uncovering the complex mechanisms underlying civic participation. For example, the book notes the critical role of social cohesion and access to resources as determinants of civic engagement. The book is valuable for students, scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in strengthening civil society.

    Dear Husband has been a bad boy. 
      
    He’s been very demanding of his good little housewife and her body, and now Erica fed up with his calloused attentions. 
      
    Dear Husband feels rather weak at the gym while pumping iron, and there is a little shrinkage going on, but it just must have been a long work week. When Erica is late returning from her book club and there’s no dinner on the table, though, Dear Husband is ready to lay down the law of the household. Until he finds himself unable to subdue good wifey that night. The tables are turned, and he’s the one on his knees giving pleasure. 
      
    Suddenly helpless to deny her, Dear Husband chafes at being expected to where that dress for the dinner party. He wasn’t expecting what walked through the door. The whole posse – or rather – the whole coven. The only books Erica has been reading lately are full of spells and incantations. 
      
    With the help of some serious gender bending spells, Erica is able to her Dear Husband how it feels to be the “weaker” gender. Dear Husband gets a taste of his own forceful medicine as he’s bent to his wife’s will – and bent over in the process. 
      
    PSA: This story contains a young lady expected to please at all times and ready for revenge. There will be gratification and mindless submission to women with complete mastery – in any slot these women wish to be masters of. At least one of those slots is natural for a man to have, and at least one is engineered by sheer witchcraft. Dear Husband will be placed in all sorts of compromising positions.

    The inspirational story of the compassionate and wise animals of the Gentle Barn and how they became a therapeutic salve for countless guests—and mentors for all of us in how to live and die 
     
    In Cow Hug Therapy, Ellie Laks recounts the extraordinary journey that started with her first teacher, Buddha—not the religious figure, but a rescued miniature Hereford cow. One evening Buddha wrapped her neck around an exhausted and upset Ellie and transferred a singular form of healing and comfort with an incredible impact. Understanding that this was something to be shared with others, Ellie developed Cow Hug Therapy, a groundbreaking approach to emotional healing that has proved effective for trauma, illness, disabilities, addiction, grief, and stress. 
     
    This colorful and compelling narrative introduces the healing mavens of the barnyard, each with a unique story of being rescued from trauma and treated with love and respect. In their new role at Ellie’s Gentle Barn sanctuaries, these animals have transformed lives and ignited breakthroughs and newfound purpose for visitors including a young mother who lost her baby, a suicidal teenager, a wounded serviceman, an open-heart-surgery patient, and many more. A testament to empathy and the mission to heal animals, people, and the planet, Cow Hug Therapy serves as a beacon of hope for all seeking healing and connection. 
     
    “This book shows not only the power of Cow Hug Therapy with these wonderful creatures, but also their beautiful, individual personalities.”—Christina Applegate

    What's the secret to lasting happiness? How do you gain the resilience needed to weather life's inevitable storms? For ancient philosophers like Socrates, Marcus Aurelius, Zeno, and Epictetus, these questions were more than mere musings—they were key elements of a school of thought called Stoicism. 
     
     
     
    In The Stoicism Workbook, you'll learn how thinking like Socrates can help you identify what truly matters in your life, and build the resilience needed to go and get it! Combining ancient philosophical wisdom with modern psychology, this practical self-help workbook will help you think flexibly, maintain inner peace, adapt to difficult situations, and improve your overall mental health and well-being. You'll also discover how the core Stoic virtues can be your compass as you navigate an increasingly uncertain world. 
     
     
     
    Stoicism isn't about being emotionless in the face of pain or suffering. It's about giving yourself space for reflection before reacting. It's about seeing opportunities in everyday challenges. It's about wielding the power to decide to what extent sadness, pain, and anger affect you. 
     
     
     
    Let this workbook guide you to learn more, and put this ancient wisdom into practice every day.
