Sinopse

"Titanic Story" offers a comprehensive exploration of the RMS Titanic's ill-fated voyage, delving into the intricate details of its construction, the human experiences onboard, and the disaster's lasting impact. The book meticulously reconstructs the events leading up to and following the sinking, highlighting the Edwardian era's societal aspirations embodied by the ship. It emphasizes how the tragedy prompted critical re-evaluations of maritime safety, unveiling the confluence of hubris, negligence, and systemic inequalities that contributed to the disaster.

 
The narrative progresses chronologically, commencing with the ship's design and construction, then unfolding into the passenger experience and the harrowing moments of the sinking and rescue efforts. Survivor accounts and historical documents enrich the narrative, providing a balanced perspective on the events. The book analyzes the aftermath, including inquiries and regulatory reforms, demonstrating how lessons learned from the Titanic disaster continue to influence modern maritime safety.

 
"Titanic Story" uniquely interweaves technical details, personal stories, and historical analysis, appealing to readers interested in World History and maritime disasters. By connecting to fields like engineering and sociology, the book provides a holistic view, avoiding sensationalism and offering a well-researched account that challenges romanticized notions. It provides valuable insights into early 20th-century society and the enduring legacy of this nautical disaster.

    This book aims to serve as both mirror and roadmap. I have identified eight issues that are most critical in the lives of young African American males: income inequality, anti-intellectualism, racial stereotypes, social promotion and retention, incarceration, inadequately trained teachers, ineffective assessments, and the lack of early childhood intervention. Subsequent chapters will begin by addressing those issues supported by statistics and stories culled both from my personal experience and from the experiences of others. The chapters present a general discussion of the topic and examine efforts to overcome the difficulties. Each chapter will close with a substantial section on solutions to the problems. The discussion concentrates on what works—the practical steps to move us from the current crisis to a future of parity and promise.

    Split - a life shared: living...

    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.
