Sinopsis

Lotte World Tower examines the iconic skyscraper as a symbol of South Korea's remarkable transformation and global ambition. The book delves into how a nation, once devastated by war, could engineer such an ambitious project, representing its technological prowess and economic resurgence. It explores the complex interplay of architectural design, Korean history, and economic development that made the tower possible. The book reveals how the building embodies South Korea's drive for innovation and its cultural pride, serving as a potent symbol of the nation's journey. 

 
The book presents its analysis across several chapters, starting with an introduction to the Lotte World Tower within the context of global skyscraper construction and its design. It then transitions into the historical and economic factors influencing its creation. The book also analyzes the tower's architectural design, focusing on the integration of Korean aesthetics and modern engineering. Finally, the book concludes with a discussion of the tower's social and cultural impact, and the practical considerations of maintaining such a large structure. This approach provides a complete picture of the tower's significance.

    Embody - Feel Heal and Transform...

    A new paradigm for embodied healing in a unique, experiential, therapeutic process in which expressive movement, guided imagery, ritual, music, and creative expression work together. 
      
    In Embody, Toni Bergins, the founder and creator of JourneyDance, an internationally renowned dance movement program, shares with readers a powerful way to address trauma mindfully so people can confront it, heal, and grow to love themselves unconditionally, just as they are. Embody is a dynamic, conscious practice that can help people release what no longer serves them and shows them how to stop stuffing/numbing the pain and start feeling, stop over-thinking/limiting, and get moving! 
      
    Embodiment is the new buzzword in personal transformation, but, most often, it is connected to static practices like breathwork and meditation. For Toni Bergins, embodiment is best achieved through active movement, and has created a practice where people literally get out of their heads and into their bodies! Her program is a trauma-informed one that offers a new promise: leading readers through deep, personal work but making it feel like play. In this book, she turns the heaviness of processing pain and past trauma into an expressive art aligned with the most recent research. Specifically, trauma expert Bessel van der Kolk, writes in his bestselling The Body Keeps the Score, “In order to overcome trauma, people need to feel safe enough to open their hearts and minds to others and become engaged with new possibilities. This can be done if trauma survivors are helped to confront and confess the reality of what has happened and are helped to feel safe again. In many cultures this involves communal rhythmical activities, such as dancing …” And that is Toni Bergins’ mission and method: to help readers move into a new story for their lives. 
      
    Embody features Toni’s prescription for a comprehensive healing journey, comprised of five core elements: 
      
    • Music, to open the doorways of impulse, imagination, creativity and healing to change mood and awareness; 
      
    • Movement, to enhance presence and confidence, and release old patterns and traumas; 
      
    • Mystical Inquiry, where imagery and creative visualization exercises are used to guide readers into an alchemic and shamanic state to investigate past hurts, and learn to trust their instincts; 
      
    • Prayers and Invocations, to raise energetic vibrations to a positive place with powerful affirmations; and 
      
    • Journaling, with writing prompts to process inner self-awareness learned on the dance floor or through any of the other Embody elements. 
      
    This enhanced audiobook features original music by the author and includes a supplemental PDF.

  • Stalking the Great Killer - Arkansas's Long War on Tuberculosis - cover

    Stalking the Great Killer -...

    Stalking the Great Killer is the story of Arkansas's struggle to control tuberculosis, and how the state became a model in its treatment of the disease. 
     
     
     
    To place the story of tuberculosis in Arkansas in historical perspective, the authors trace the origins of the disease. Arkansas suffered some of the worst ravages of the disease, and the authors argue that many of the improvements in the state's medical infrastructure grew out of the desperate need to control it. 
     
     
     
    In the early twentieth century, Arkansas established a sanatorium and thirty years later, the segregated Black sanitorium. These institutions helped slow the disease but at a cost: removed from families and communities, patients suffered from the isolation. Joseph Bates saw this when he delivered an uncle to the sanitorium in the 1940s. In the 1960s, Bates, now a physician, and his colleague Paul Reagan overcame a resistant medical-political system to develop a new approach to treating the disease. 
     
     
     
    In the age of Covid-19, this history offers valuable lessons about community involvement in public health, the potential efficacy of public-private partnerships, and the importance of leadership in the battle to eradicate disease.

    When British troops first deployed to Northern Ireland in 1969 to keep apart rioting factions of loyalists and nationalists, they could not have known that they were being drawn into the longest campaign in the British Army's history, a battle against the threat of a new rising force - the Provisional Irish Republican Army.   While patrols, vehicle bombs and incendiary speeches are the defining memories of the Troubles, the real war was fought out of sight and out of mind. For thirty years, Britain's Special Forces waged a ferocious, secretive struggle against a ruthless and implacable enemy. Harry McCallion's deep experience across the theatre of Northern Ireland offers a unique insight into nearly every major military action and operation in the Province. Having served seven tours with the Parachute Regiment, undergone selection for 14 Intelligence Company, completed six years with the SAS - including two tours with their anti-terrorism team - and received two commendations for bravery during service with the Royal Ulster Constabulary, there are few more qualified to tell this astonishing story. This book is his blistering account of the history of Britain's war against the IRA between 1970 and 1998. From new insights into high-profile killings and riveting accounts of enemy contact, to revelations about clandestine missions and the strategies used in combating a merciless enemy, Undercover War is the definitive inside story of the battle against the IRA, one of the most dangerous and effective terrorist organisations in recent history.

    CHANGE. 
    Either you can… make it, fight it, or accept it! 
    There are always options, and the choice is always yours. 
    The thesis of “Your Genesis” is that perception is key to change; if you change your perspective, you can change your life. It's a simple but often underrated truth. After a confusing and challenging start to life, the author found this to be the basis for his personal growth and evolution. So, how should we view our life? 
    Perception entails more than simply viewing the world through a bokeh lens filter of blind optimism, lavender, lollipops, and technicolor butterflies. It's also about awareness and acceptance. "Your Genesis" is a simple essay about change that is a concentrated resurgence of ancient philosophy into this frightening era when things like social media covertly threaten individual freedom and people's ability to change the course of their lives as much as a coronavirus has altered the course of humanity. 
    Everything has a genesis, a beginning.
