Synopsis

In "From October to Brest-Litovsk," Leon Trotsky presents a comprehensive account of the tumultuous period following the October Revolution of 1917 up to the signing of the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk in 1918. Written with incisive clarity, this seminal work interweaves personal narrative with political analysis, offering a rich tapestry of events that shaped early Soviet Russia. Trotsky's literary style is characterized by its vigorous rhetoric and deep ideological commitment, effectively immersing the reader in the revolutionary fervor of the time, while also critiquing the internal and external threats to the nascent Bolshevik regime. The work serves as both a historical document and a persuasive argument for the revolutionary principles he espoused, situated firmly within the context of Marxist theory and the global struggle for proletarian empowerment. Leon Trotsky, a key figure in the Bolshevik Revolution and a prominent Marxist theorist, wrote this book during his exile from political power following a power struggle within the Communist Party. His firsthand experience as the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs and his pivotal role in negotiating peace with the Central Powers deeply informed his perspective on the intricacies of revolution and diplomacy. Trotsky's advocacy for permanent revolution and his analysis of historical materialism manifest in this narrative, reflecting both his political ideologies and his disillusionment with factionalism within the Soviet leadership. "From October to Brest-Litovsk" is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the Russian Revolution, negotiating peace amid conflict, and the foundational elements of Bolshevik principles. Trotsky'Äôs insights are as relevant today as ever, making this work not only a historical account but also a critical commentary on the struggle for revolutionary change. This book will enrich the reader's understanding of revolutionary dynamics and the political landscape of the early 20th century.

    If anything can bind together nearly 400 pupils and 100 school staff in challenging circumstances, it's love. And love is in plentiful supply at Parklands.The pupils at Parklands Primary School, located on the Seacroft estate in Leeds, often face significant hardship. Children start at the school significantly behind their peers nationally, especially in terms of their language and literacy. Yet the school is famed for outstanding learning --both in terms of Ofsted judgement and, more importantly, in achieving amazing outcomes for its learners.In this inspiring book, head teacher Chris Dyson shares the story of how he has steered the school towards the seemingly impossible educational dream of high achievement, personalised support and complete inclusion. He explains how the school setting can be a place where there is love but also hope and relentless ambition for children, and reflects on the steps that he and his staff have put in place to make this a reality for Parklands' pupils. Chris delves into how this culture and climate of love drives behaviour and decision-making throughout the school - and, as a result, how this creates a safe, loving environment in which all of its learners can thrive. Chris also provides insights into how the leadership team goes about raising funds for the school, and how they choose to spend it on both curricular and extracurricular projects. And, furthermore, how the school broadens its pupils' experiences and cultural capital by means of residential trips, in-school productions, and sports and arts provision.An uplifting read for all teachers and school leaders.

    DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT THE OFFICIAL BOOK. 
    This is a summary, & it does not accompany the official 
    "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success" by Carol S. Dweck, Ph.D., introduces the powerful concept of mindset, which has the potential to impact success in various aspects of life significantly. Based on extensive research, Dweck distinguishes between two mindsets: the fixed mindset, where people believe abilities are unchangeable, and the growth mindset, where individuals believe that abilities can be developed and improved over time. 
    Dweck's book demonstrates how adopting a growth mindset can lead to incredible achievement in education, work, sports, and the arts. She also delves into the concept of a "false growth mindset" and provides guidance on embracing a deeper and more authentic growth mindset. Furthermore, she extends the application of mindset beyond individuals to groups and organizations, emphasizing how it can shape the culture of these entities. 
    By understanding and fostering the right mindset, Dweck suggests that leaders, parents, teachers, and coaches can inspire personal growth and transformation in themselves and those they influence. "Mindset" offers invaluable insights into the psychology of success and provides practical strategies for harnessing the power of mindset to achieve outstanding accomplishments.
