Sinossi

"The Dance Mafia" unveils the hidden power dynamics within the dance industry, revealing that success isn't solely based on talent. The book explores how underground dance battles, secretive organizations, and industry gatekeepers wield significant influence, shaping careers and opportunities.

 
It argues that meritocracy is often a myth, with social networks and unspoken rules playing a crucial role.

 
The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the disproportionate influence of certain dance organizations and the impact of cultural capital on a dancer's career trajectory. It also examines how the commodification of dance affects artistic expression.

 
Through a mixed-methods approach, combining interviews and archival research, the book progresses from introducing key players and concepts to unpacking power dynamics and analyzing case studies.

 
This exploration of the often-romanticized dance world offers a fresh perspective by combining investigative journalism with academic rigor.

 
It is valuable for dancers, choreographers, and anyone interested in the entertainment industry, providing insights into navigating the complex landscape and fostering a more equitable environment.

    A practical examination of teaching while nonmonogamous, and how parents and administrators can support polyamorous educators. 
    Educators are often overworked, underpaid and at the crosshairs of every cultural debate. Teachers dedicate themselves to creating safe, nurturing environments for students, but are themselves subjected to levels of personal scrutiny practically unseen in other professions. In some careers, keeping a picture of your loved ones on your desk isn’t worth a second thought. For teachers with nontraditional families, it can come with the risk of becoming a political football. 
    Informed by her firsthand experience as a nonmonogamous educator, Ashley Speed examines the typical objections raised about nonmonogamous people teaching children, how to refute them and how to navigate some of the difficulties of being a nonmonogamous teacher in today’s stormy political waters. It also offers practical advice for administrators and parents who want to support nonmonogamous teachers, and tips for teachers on how to make their classrooms friendly for kids from nonmonogamous families.

    What if death isn’t the end—but the beginning of wisdom? 
    The Tao of Death is a contemplative journey into the heart of life’s greatest mystery. Inspired by the ancient Tao Te Ching, this poetic adaptation invites you to explore death not with fear, but with reverence—as a sacred teacher that can awaken you to love, presence, and what really matters. 
    Each verse offers a gentle reflection, guiding you beyond the noise of modern life and into a deeper truth: that death and life are not opposites, but partners in the same sacred dance. 
    Whether you are grieving, awakening, or simply longing for a quieter path, this spoken version is designed to be listened to slowly, intuitively—like a meditation. Let it accompany you in stillness, in nature, or during times of transformation. 
    You don’t need to follow a religion to receive this wisdom. 
    You only need to listen with an open heart.

    Saving Port Moresby - Fighting...

    Powerfully written by Australia's leading military historian, Saving Port Moresby commemorates the 80th Anniversary of the Battles in New Guinea. 
    Japanese Major General Horii Tomitarô, commanding the South Seas Force, was after taking Kokoda Plateau in late July tasked with entering the Owen Stanley Range to capture Port Morseby.  
    After the battles for Deniki and Isurava, his troops were pushing south through the mountains. The Australians under Brigadier Arnold Potts, however, were not in rout, but were involved in a determined fighting withdraw. After fighting a delaying action at Templeton’s Crossing, the Australians took up a position along Mission Ridge, just south of Efogi Village.  
    Horii and his battalions attacked and after two days of bloody hand-to-hand fighting, the Australians were forced to again withdraw. To the veterans who fought here the battle would become known as ‘Butcher’s Corner’. After several further delaying actions, Potts and his men took up a position on Ioribaiwa Ridge, just 50-kilometres north of Port Moresby. 
    His brigade by now numbered fewer than 300 men. Here they were reinforced with the men of the 25th Brigade. Horii decided that he would establish himself of Ioribaiwa Ridge as his base for operations against the township. After a week of fighting the Japanese cut through the centre right flank of the Australian 25th Brigade, forcing the Australians to fall back to Imita Ridge, the last defensible ridge in the Owen Stanleys immediately behind lay Port Moresby.
