Sinopsis

Every movement today runs on more than passion—it runs on platforms. The Mobilization Machine explores how algorithms, trending systems, and digital platforms amplify grassroots activism and shape the narratives that drive political change.Written for students and future civic leaders, this book explains how online systems determine visibility, organize communities, and accelerate campaigns. It examines both the potential and the pitfalls: from the power of digital mobilization in giving voice to the marginalized, to the risks of echo chambers, manipulation, and algorithmic bias.Far from alarmist, the book provides a balanced and professional look at how digital tools can be harnessed ethically to strengthen democracy. By unpacking the mechanics of online mobilization, it equips readers with critical insight into how activism is evolving—and how to engage responsibly in digital political life.If you want to understand how activism is being rewritten by technology, this is your essential guide.

    Now, this timeless Buddhist classic struts onto the modern stage in contemporary queer vernacular. Neither a commentary nor a paraphrase, this verse-by-verse translation maintains the profound wisdom of the original Sanskrit while expressing the teachings in the vibrant language of our culture.

    33 Ways Not to Screw Up Your Journalism is a succinct, authoritative and encouraging handbook of practical and inspiring tools, techniques and values that journalists, whether they're students or newsroom veterans, need more than ever in our fractured and fact-tossed democracy. "Excellent for journalists of all ages and experience," says broadcast legend Dan Rather. Written by award-winning journalist and writing teacher and coach Chip Scanlan, former writing program director at The Poynter Institute, the book is a survival manual for journalists at a time when the news industry is in free fall and their profession is under assault. Journalists are often thrown into their craft with the most rudimentary understanding of what it means to be a journalist in a democracy. Its short, fact-packed chapters remedy that. It can be consulted at your desk or, slim enough to fit in a jacket pocket or purse, when you face a particularly thorny problem in the field. Its subjects range from treating sources with respect, being aware of your biases, plagiarism, fabrication, and ethical decision-making to letting fear stop you, combatting writer's block, and step-by-step guides to the writing process, interviewing and revision and the importance of multimedia and data journalism. Journalism is in trouble, but it's not too late to save it--or yourself--by mastering, sharing and implementing the most critical skills any reporter can have: the basics. Based on extensive research, personal experience and interviews with reporters, editors and publishers, 33 Ways Not To Screw Up Your Journalism is the essential companion for journalists and their professors and coaches.

    When do you become an adult? What does it mean to grow up? And what are the experiences that propel us forward ? or keep us stuck? 
     
    As we get older, we pass many milestones, but for some of us it can feel as if adulthood is always just out of reach. 
     
    Journalist and psychotherapist-in-training Moya Sarner goes on a journey into what growing up really involves, and how we do it again and again throughout our lives. She draws on case studies, as well as her training, and theories of child psychology, psychoanalysis, neuroscience, and more, to explore what it means to be a ‘grown up’ and how we can meet the challenges and opportunities of every stage of our lives.

    Introduction to the 100 Somethings Language Learning Series
     
    
     
    Welcome to a fresh, captivating way to learn a new language! The "A Hundred Reasons Why..." series helps you master Spanish through topics that interest you, such as art, science, and history. Each book offers 100 carefully selected reasons that serve as concise knowledge nuggets in both English and Spanish.
     
    
     
    How It Works:
     
      - Each reason is first presented in Spanish for you to interpret.
     
    - The next page provides the English translation and then repeats the reason in Spanish to help you understand unfamiliar terms. The second half of the book presents the content in English, then in the target language, and finally in English again, giving you the chance to translate in both directions and demonstrate true mastery of the material.
     
    - This format is repetitive to aid memorization and concise, ensuring streamlined learning.
     
    
     
    Benefits:
     
    - Concise Learning: The brief, one-sentence reasons are easy to remember and relate directly to your interests.
     
    - Reinforced Learning: Switching between English and Spanish solidifies your vocabulary and grammar naturally.
     
    - Engaged Learning: Associating new words with topics you're passionate about keeps your learning dynamic and engaging.
     
    - Dual Knowledge: You not only learn a new language but also deepen your knowledge of the specific subject matter.
     
    
     
    Ideal for those who thrive on clear and targeted information, this series makes learning both educational and enjoyable. Whether you're a beginner or looking to expand your linguistic skills, these books are crafted to enhance your journey effectively. Embrace this innovative approach and let your passions fuel your progress in mastering Spanish!
