Synopsis

In her groundbreaking work, "The Sex Side of Life," Mary Ware Dennett navigates the often-taboo subject of sexuality with a refreshing blend of straightforwardness and scholarly inquiry. Written in an accessible style, the book amalgamates scientific research, personal anecdotes, and societal critiques, challenging the prevailing moralistic views of early 20th-century America. Dennett not only elucidates the biological and psychological components of human sexuality but also advocates for sexual health education, underscoring its essential role in personal and societal well-being. Her writing not only informs but also stirs the conscience, encouraging readers to rethink their attitudes toward sex and intimacy. Mary Ware Dennett was a prominent advocate for social reform, a suffragist, and a pioneering figure in the birth control movement. Her experiences as a mother and her engagement in feminist causes prompted her to address the widespread misinformation surrounding sexual health. The frustrations she faced in discussions about women's reproductive rights and sexual autonomy fueled her desire to educate and empower others, making this work not only timely but also deeply personal. For readers seeking a comprehensive and candid exploration of human sexuality, Dennett's "The Sex Side of Life" is an indispensable resource. It challenges outdated perceptions and invites a more enlightened understanding, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of sexuality, health, and social justice.

    A Grammar Series That Uses the Functional Approach
    
    KEY FEATURES 
    - Functional approach to grammar teaching, using exemplars to illustrate the usage before defining the structure and rules
    - Vocabulary taught through language-in-use to build the learners’ vocabulary through use rather than memorisation of rules
    - Contemporary topics to inculcate 21-century skills amongst learners
    - Use of literature to help learners understand how grammar is used in text
    - A comprehension section comprising texts from different genres so that learners may relate grammar to different types of works produced in English
    - Phonics in Grades 1 and 2 to teach the very basis of language
    - Uniquely stylised illustrations
    - Activities such as puzzles, crosswords, word grids and games to aid the facilitator in using the concept of ‘flipped classroom’
    - Periodic tests to help the learners self-assess the acquisition of concepts
    - Digital component to cater to a technology-driven classroom
    
    DESCRIPTION: 
    My Blue Book of Grammar is a course that has been conceptualized and designed keeping in mind the increasingly dynamic role of the English language in today’s world. Especially in our country, where English serves as the lingua franca, a grammar course has to offer not only an exposition of the pedagogy but also the exhibition of the utility of that pedagogy. The aim of a grammar series should be to encourage the development of competency amongst learners, even though their proficiency levels may vary. While the level of exposure to English of all learners may be different, a grammar series should aid in the development of a certain level of confidence amongst the learners, with the end result being that they are able to converse without hesitation in English.

    Unlock the more straightforward side of Nausea with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!This engaging summary presents an analysis of Nausea by Jean-Paul Sartre, which follows one man as he becomes truly aware of the existence of the world around him and grapples with the rising sense of panic this causes. This realisation leads him to abandon the historical biography he is working on and embrace fiction instead, as a way of freeing himself from his nausea. This highly original book, which is one of the classic works of existentialism, combines elements of the essay and the novel as a way of transmitting the author's philosophical ideas. Jean-Paul Sartre was a French writer, philosopher and political activist. He was a leading figure in the existentialist philosophical movement, and participated in the French Resistance during the Second World War. In 1964, he became the first person to ever turn down a Nobel Prize.Find out everything you need to know about Nausea in a fraction of the time!This in-depth and informative reading guide brings you:• A complete plot summary• Character studies• Key themes and symbols• Questions for further reflectionWhy choose BrightSummaries.com?Available in print and digital format, our publications are designed to accompany you on your reading journey.

    Celestial Promise

    Hayley Ann Solomon

    • 0
    In this collection of poetry, written over half a lifetime, Hayley Ann Solomon focuses primarily on the pursuit of excellence, immortality achieved through finite life, love in all its forms, and social justice. As it waxes and wanes, the collection cycles through sequences of lyrical ballads, sonnets, elegies, haiku, snippets of nonsensical verse; all blended with a substantial dose of existential philosophy and social comment. 
    The collection covers a full spectrum, from the darkest psycho-social moments, to zeniths of absolute joy. The liberal use of consonance, assonance, alliteration, echoes and half-echoes, rhyme and cross-rhyme make for a style rich in sound-play. This, together with strong metrical awareness – very often iambic or trochaic pentameter and tetrameter – evokes a flow that is quite typically euphonic. There is therefore a sense of lyricism despite a broad diversity of topics and moods. 
    The anthology evolves to become a promise of regeneration, in synchrony with the phases of the moon, from which it takes its celestial title.
