Beschreibung

Currency Changes explores the evolution of American money and monetary policy, revealing how decisions about currency standards have shaped the nation's economic trajectory. It examines the gold standard era, the establishment of the Federal Reserve System, and the eventual move away from gold, highlighting the motivations and consequences of these shifts. The book emphasizes how these policies have influenced economic stability and growth, providing crucial insights into the cyclical nature of economic booms and busts.

The book presents a chronological analysis, starting with early monetary systems and progressing through the rise and fall of the gold standard. It dissects the impacts of these systems on inflation, employment, and economic growth, offering a balanced analysis rather than advocating for any particular policy. By examining historical patterns and consequences, Currency Changes aims to equip readers with the knowledge to understand current debates about economic inequality, government intervention, and the future of the dollar.

Supported by primary source documents and economic data, this accessible work of economic history takes a long-term perspective, emphasizing the reactive nature of U.S. monetary policy. It connects to political science, sociology, and international relations, providing a comprehensive understanding of the forces shaping the U.S. economy. Ultimately, it seeks to inform readers and encourage well-reasoned conclusions about the future of American money.

How To Be an Equine Therapy...

HowExpert, Dana Feiwus

If you want to improve other people’s lives as an equine therapy assistant, then check out this "How To Be an Equine Therapy Assistant" guide.
A person with a disability is only limited if they allow themselves to be. Where doctors’ methods fail, horses are there to help provide results. Equine therapeutic riding (commonly called horse therapy) is a fairly new form of therapy designed for people of all ages who live with any number of both physical and mental impairments.In its simplest sense, riding forces the human body to mimic the movement patterns of the horse’s pelvis, which in turn adds to their own range of movement while away from the barn.
Here’s what you’ll learn by reading this guide:
• Eligibility requirements for riders
• Explanations behind the reason that equine therapy works
• How to become a volunteer, which is a necessary component of every therapeutic riding program
• The positions open to volunteers
• Tips on handling the horses
• The equipment used during lessons
• The variety of exercises and activities utilized in each lesson
• The role of the volunteers in the improvement of the riders
• The visible/audible benefits of therapy riding
• The emotional impact of therapy riding on the volunteers
Equine therapy is a life-changing experience for everyone involved. There’s plenty more to learn in these pages before signing up to be a volunteer yourself!
About the Expert
My name is Dana Feiwus. I am a recent graduate of the University of North Texas with a major in English, Creative Writing. I began volunteering at ManeGait Therapeutic Horsemanship in McKinney, Texas two years ago because I was always fond of horses. However, I soon learned that therapy riding is about much more than horses, and I have been there almost every weekend since I began.

Religion Unburdened by Belief -...

Joshua Nathaniel Pritikin

Religion Unburdened by Belief poses the question: what would religion without belief actually look like? If you stripped away the creeds, the doctrines, the articles of faith—what’s left? Is there anything left?
The book takes up this question with the Way of Open Inquiry, a thought experiment. It’s an attempt to design religion from a blank slate. At stake is how you live, what you're willing to give up, and who you'll be on the other side. What would religion look like if you built it from the essentials?
Where do you even start? What do humanity’s oldest religious practices—trance, ritual, spirit-work—still have to teach us? Is there a role for altered states—meditation, say—and if so, what is it? Should psychedelics play a role, and how? How do you design something that’s both safe enough to practice and transformative enough to matter? How do you build community around lived experience rather than shared doctrine? What would it mean to design a religion that resists its own codification?
Consider this an invitation. Faith optional. Courage required.
Reviews:“A counterintuitive yet compelling case for religious exploration divested from belief systems.” — Kirkus Reviews“Inviting, open-minded “field manual” for exploring spiritual experiences.” — BookLife

The Ethical Sellout -...

Lily Zheng, Inge Hansen

In the age of identity politics, the fear of selling out is rampant-but Zheng and Hansen say there's nothing wrong with it and show how to do it without betraying your deepest values and beliefs. 
 
 
What happens when you're a proud person of color, but you fall in love with a white person? What if you don't believe in working for megacorporations, but one offers you a six-figure salary, and you have a family to feed? Will you sell out, and is that wrong? 
 
The truth is we're all sellouts. Our life circumstances change in ways we can't predict. Offering practical assessment scenarios and hard-hitting questions, Zheng and Hansen propose new ways of authentically thinking about marginalization, privilege, and self-interest, including five key components of ethically selling out: 
-	Lose the purity politics-you're a human being, not a model member of a group. 
-	Embrace your changing identities, roles, and expectations-see change as growth, not betrayal. 
-	Maintain a sense of meaning-hang on to your personal values as you navigate life's changes. 
-	Seek a chosen family and community-isolation only reinforces negative reactions to selling out. 
-	Constantly question your world-don't accept the status quo!
