Beschreibung

Swahili Trade explores the fascinating rise of the Swahili Coast in East Africa, a region that transformed from a collection of small settlements into a vibrant hub of culture and commerce. By examining the extensive trade networks connecting the coast to Arabia, India, and China, the book reveals how maritime trade shaped the economic, social, and cultural landscape of the Swahili civilization. The book highlights the agency of Swahili merchants and rulers in forging a distinct cultural identity. The book argues that the Swahili coast was not merely a passive recipient of outside influences, but actively shaped its own destiny by strategically engaging in trade. It examines the rise of key city-states like Kilwa, Mombasa, and Zanzibar, illustrating their evolution into bustling ports. For example, archaeological finds reveal the material wealth resulting from these trade ventures. 

 
Swahili Trade is structured in three sections, first introducing the geography and early trade networks, then examining the peak of Swahili civilization, and finally analyzing the decline of Swahili power and its lasting legacy. This book offers a unique perspective by emphasizing the agency of the Swahili people in shaping their own history. It moves away from Eurocentric narratives and highlights the dynamism and creativity of African societies in the pre-colonial era.

    Once you've been admitted to college, the next step is to develop a strategy of how to find your best life there. But for decades, Professor James T. Hamilton has seen students struggle with their college journey. Some avoid challenging experiences, follow a path of familiar expectations, and rely on shortcuts. Others aim for perfection, ignore their friends and health, labor over what subjects to study, and neglect spending time outside the classroom. The pressure to make college valuable and interesting can feel overwhelming. 
     
     
     
    If only students could learn how others have navigated these challenges. You could ask alums to look back on friendships and college-to-career paths and provide advice. Now, you don't have to wish because You Got In! Now What? tackles the burning questions you have. 
     
     
     
    Hamilton designs lessons to help you find purpose, manage time, maintain friendships and family relationships, stay physically and mentally healthy, and choose classes, majors, and careers. Each lesson is accompanied by an essay based on research and reflections from students, alums, and professors to provide observations for how you can embrace the best that college has to offer. With these insights, you'll explore new ideas, meet people, have adventures, and most importantly, beyond just earning a degree, get an education.

    Unwanted Advances - Sexual...

    From a highly regarded feminist cultural critic and professor comes a polemic arguing that the stifling sense of sexual danger sweeping American campuses doesn’t empower women, it impedes the fight for gender equality. 
    Feminism is broken, argues Laura Kipnis, if anyone thinks the sexual hysteria overtaking American campuses is a sign of gender progress.  
    A committed feminist, Kipnis was surprised to find herself the object of a protest march by student activists at her university for writing an essay about sexual paranoia on campus. Next she was brought up on Title IX complaints for creating a ""hostile environment."" Defying confidentiality strictures, she wrote a whistleblowing essay about the ensuing seventy-two-day investigation, which propelled her to the center of national debates over free speech, ""safe spaces,"" and the vast federal overreach of Title IX. 
    In the process she uncovered an astonishing netherworld of accused professors and students, campus witch hunts, rigged investigations, and Title IX officers run amuck. Drawing on interviews and internal documents, Unwanted Advances demonstrates the chilling effect of this new sexual McCarthyism on intellectual freedom. Without minimizing the seriousness of campus assault, Kipnis argues for more honesty about the sexual realities and ambivalences hidden behind the notion of ""rape culture."" Instead, regulation is replacing education, and women’s hard-won right to be treated as consenting adults is being repealed by well-meaning bureaucrats. 
    Unwanted Advances is a risk-taking, often darkly funny interrogation of feminist paternalism, the covert sexual conservatism of hook-up culture, and the institutionalized backlash of holding men alone responsible for mutually drunken sex. It’s not just compulsively readable, it will change the national conversation.

    How does a child survive years of unimaginable abuse? 
    She splits. 
    And splits again. And again. And again. 
    And she does survive. But not without consequences. 
    As a young adult, years after her physical abuse has ended, Maggie Walters struggles with an 
    unpredictable temper and socially difficult behaviour. After several false starts she finds a therapist 
    who she trusts, just enough, to start talking about the childhood locked away behind the anger and 
    isolation she has learnt to live with. 
    Eventually she is diagnosed with Multiple Personality Disorder, MPD (now known as Dissociative 
    Identity Disorder or DID). 
    Gradually, she understands. It was not Maggie who survived her childhood. The instinct to survive 
    created an alternative identity called Annie, who with a myriad of other ‘alters’, lived through the 
    abuse inflicted on her. 
    Decades later, with a husband and three much-loved children, Maggie strives to live a normal life 
    despite a past which has left her internal world with a hidden, dark secret. Every day, unseen by 
    those around her, trigger incidents fill her head with voices, the chaotic remnants of her other selves 
    who lived the childhood she couldn’t. This is the ‘normal’ which Maggie has learned to live with. 
    In SPLIT Maggie tells the story of managing this ‘normal’, of understanding and accepting her past, 
    and standing strong in the life she has built from the ashes of her broken childhood. 
    It is a story not only of survival, but of self-acceptance, of the triumph to simply live. You will not 
    read another book like it.
