  The fascinating story of the Red River Settlement, now Winnipeg, in the years 1813 to 1816, told with archival journals, reports, and letters
  		 
  Unsettled tells the story of two hundred Highlanders who flee the Scottish Clearances in 1813 to establish a settlement on the Red River in what eventually became Winnipeg. They are sponsored by the Earl of Selkirk, a man who has never been west of Montreal. Families who have never left their Highland crofts take an epic journey over ocean, up wild rivers, and through boundless wilderness, surviving disease and brutal winter only to face the determined opposition of fur barons who want no sodbusters threatening their trade and are prepared to stop at nothing to destroy their dream.
  		 
  The “empty” land they’ve been promised is also anything but, already occupied by First Nations bands and the beginnings of that proud nation soon to be called Métis, whom they must befriend or fight.
  		 
  Unsettled takes you inside the experience, relying on journals, reports, and letters to bring these days of soaring hope, crushing despair, and heroic determination to life — to bring their present into ours.

  Wired to Manage - Coordination...

  Standard project management was built for a brain that isn't yours.If you have ADHD, you already know. The Gantt charts, the daily stand-ups, the "just break it down" advice — they don't only fail. They fail, and then the failure gets misread, by everyone including you, as being bad at your job.You are not bad at your job. Coordination — holding deadlines, sequencing dependencies, delegating, leading people — is a bundle of executive functions, and in ADHD those functions run differently. This book rebuilds coordination around how your brain actually works: backward planning that makes invisible prep time visible, externalising everything so a leaky working memory can't lose it, designing around hyperfocus instead of against it, and feedback that doesn't detonate.Twenty-three short chapters. One idea each. A ten-minute step at the end of every one, always optional, never homework. Listen in any order and start with whatever is on fire.Grounded in published research, referenced in full in the written editions.Part of The Wired Collection from Rondanini Publishing.

  Worse Than Nothing - The...

  Why originalism is a flawed, incoherent, and dangerously ideological method of constitutional interpretation 
   
   
   
  Originalism, the view that the meaning of a constitutional provision is fixed when it is adopted, was once the fringe theory of a few extremely conservative legal scholars but is now a well-accepted mode of constitutional interpretation. Three of the Supreme Court's nine justices explicitly embrace the originalist approach, as do increasing numbers of judges in the lower courts. 
   
   
    
  Noted legal scholar Erwin Chemerinsky gives a comprehensive analysis of the problems that make originalism unworkable as a method of constitutional interpretation. He argues that the framers themselves never intended constitutional interpretation to be inflexible and shows how it is often impossible to know what the "original intent" of any particular provision was. Perhaps worst of all, though its supporters tout it as a politically neutral and objective method, originalist interpretation tends to disappear when its results fail to conform to modern conservative ideology.

  The Heart Yoga Teachings

  Recorded on March 30 and 31, 1969 at a New York City sculpture studio, these are the original talks by Ram Dass that became basis for his seminal book, Be Here Now. Over 40 years later, Be Here Now still stands as the highly readable centerpiece of Western articulation of Eastern philosophy and continues to be the instruction manual of choice for generations of spiritual seekers. 
   
  
   
  Ram Dass talks about how we can be present and utterly accepting of each moment in life as it is in the here and now, and uses stories such as the Sermon on the Mount and the teachings of Ramakrishna to illustrate concepts such as finding the sacred in the “profane”, grasping and why we do it, yin and yang duality and oneness, and unconditional love. 
   
  
   
  These talks are a primer on the fundamental underpinnings of so many spiritual practices popular today. We are also extremely pleased to have the inspired artwork of Peter Max on this digital download cover. 
   
  
   
  Following is a transcribed excerpt from one of these seminal teachings: "If I think life is just a game, then I am taking from it the meaning of its acts. I am denigrating the precious nature of the life process. Do you think the man that made the music stand was able to make a more exquisite music stand because he was not attached to making a music stand? Do you think he really got closer to the essence of music standness because he did not remain in subject object relation to the music stand? That’s the issue."
