  What does it mean to belong? In The Land is Sung, musicologist Thomas M. Pooley shows how performances of song, dance, and praise poetry connect Zulu communities to their ancestral homes and genealogies. For those without land tenure in the province of KwaZulu-Nata, performances articulate a sense of place. Migrants express their allegiances through performance and spiritual relationships to land are embodied in rituals that invoke ancestral connection while advancing well-being through intergenerational communication. Engaging with justice and environmental ethics, education and indigenous knowledge systems, musical and linguistic analysis, and the ethics of recording practice, Pooley's analysis draws on genres of music and dance recorded in the midlands and borderlands of South Africa, and in Johannesburg's inner city. His detailed sound writing captures the visceral experiences of performances in everyday life. The book is richly illustrated and there is a companion website featuring both video and audio examples.

  You chose to be an educator because you felt a sense of purpose, a wish to serve—it's not just a profession. 
   
  Teaching is a role that demands emotional presence, relational skill, and boundless energy. If you're feeling burned out, overwhelmed, and more disconnected from your purpose, then chances are your students are feeling that way too. In The Self-Led Educator, Joanna Curry-Sartori is leading the movement to help teachers and school leaders use the transformative tools of Internal Family Systems (IFS) to reclaim their love of teaching, work compassionately with their own "parts" to better serve students, and build a resilient and connected community. 
   
  Becoming self-led means that your thoughts, emotions, and actions will be guided by the core self, rather than your reactive impulses, self-protective tendencies, or desire to people-please. Curry-Sartori will help you identify the root causes of collective stress, student disengagement, and interpersonal conflict at school, while also providing proven tools to prioritize your own mental health and emotional well-being. Let this powerful book be your guide to becoming a more calm, clear, compassionate, creative, curious, and connected educator. You can lead your school community toward excellence . . . starting with yourself.

  Today people more than ever are overwhelmed by worry about current events. Why are some people devoured by hatred and bigotry? Can we avoid the next economic crisis? Can we prevent the next global war? Will computers take over our civilization any time soon? Even though Vertical Progress does not have all answers, it provides readers with plenty of new ideas to open the debate. Vertical Progress offers a hypothesis and rationale that provides not only a different look at past events but also explains much of what is happening now. The book sees the human society as a well-designed, complex information system that has a single purpose—to build a collective knowledge. Using results of the computer simulations author demonstrating that as just a heard of collaborative individuals, the society would not be able to make any substantial progress. The book logically connects the latest achievements of science with the findings of the computer simulation experiment to lead readers to the inevitable conclusion—the social information system would not make any progress unless it operates with more than one type of nodes. Hence, the author suggests that our civilization consists of more than one human kind.

  Quiet Time with The President -...

  One Sunday in 2001 ear, nose and throat specialist Dr Peter Friedland received an unexpected call from Nelson Mandela's personal physician. The former president was struggling to hear. Could Peter visit him at home?
  Friedland discovered that Mandela was using antiquated hearing aids and was struggling to maintain them. Soon he became a regular visitor to Mandela's home in Houghton where he experienced the elderly statesman, in the frailty of old age, away from the crowds. He was full of stories and always bearing a lesson.
  But outside Mandela's quiet house, Friedland's life was ricocheting from treating one victim of violent crime to another. On many days he worked as a head and neck trauma surgeon and found himself drawn into the victims' families. When his own family and friends were exposed to violent crime, he was driven to make a life-changing decision.
  In Quiet Time with the President, Friedland also examines the powerful forces that push people away from South Africa and those that pull them back. Telling his famous patient that he was planning to leave the country was insurmountably difficult for Friedland, but Mandela surprised him.
  He'd accept his leaving, but on one condition . . .

  Aion - Researches into the...

  C. G. Jung

  Aion is one of the major works of C.G. Jung's later years.  
   
  The title comes from the Greek word for aeon or age and refers to the age of Christianity, for, in Aion, Jung is concerned with the collective psychic development that the Christian era represents. How did it come about when it did? What psychic change did it represent? In exploring these questions, Jung (1875-1961) draws upon Christian symbolism and, in particular, the figure of Christ as a case study in the archetype of the Self.  
   
  The book begins with an account of the important concepts of the ego, the shadow and the anima/animus (here referred to as the syzygy). Jung then continues with his exploration of the Self archetype as represented through Christian symbolism and the figure of Christ. In particular, a discussion and critique of the Christian view of evil is provided. The symbolism of the fish, which recurs as a symbol of both Christ and of the devil, is examined in detail and a wide range of alchemical, pagan and gnostic material is drawn upon. The final chapter of the book proposes a model for the structure of the Self.  
   
  Aion is one of the most important volumes of the Collected Works and complements The Archetypes and the Collective Unconscious. Translated by R. F. C.Hull.
