She combines insights, strategies, action plans exercises that will empower and enable you to unleash your full potential and to win at work.

  We broke our new series on learning German down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
  This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise German. The sample will give you a taste of what you can look forward to. 
  In Unit 1 you will hear German decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
  Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native German speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
  By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand German. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in German at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken German, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
  In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

  NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER 
  ""[A] scorching treatise on toxic masculinity. Joseph’s critiques of “the patriarchy... both overt and ingrained” are razor-sharp, but it’s the clear-eyed reckoning of his own place within it that tethers the soul of his book."" —Publishers Weekly 
  ""Joseph has learned a great deal from bell hooks here, and I think she would be proud because Patriarchy Blues is such a moving, inspiring, rigorous vision for living.” —Robert Jones, Jr., New York Times bestselling author of The Prophets 
  In this personal and poignant collection, the author of the New York Times bestseller The Black Friend examines the culture of masculinity through the lens of a Black man.  
  What does it mean to be a man today? How does the pervasive yet elusive idea of “toxic masculinity” actually reflect men’s experiences—particularly those of color—and how they navigate the world? 
  In this thought-provoking collection of essays, poems, and short reflections, Frederick Joseph contemplates these questions and more as he explores issues of masculinity and patriarchy from both a personal and cultural standpoint. From fatherhood, and “manning up” to abuse and therapy, he fearlessly and thoughtfully tackles the complex realities of men’s lives today and their significance for society, lending his insights as a Black man. 
  Written in Joseph’s unique voice, with an intelligence and raw honesty that demonstrates both his vulnerability and compassion, Patriarchy Blues forces us to consider the joys, pains, and destructive nature of manhood and the stereotypes it engenders.

  Wie formt Sprache unsere Identität? Wie inszenieren wir verschiedene Identitäten durch Sprache? Welche Normen bestimmen unseren Sprachgebrauch - und wie verändern sich diese im Lauf der Zeit, in Abhängigkeit von den beteiligten Akteur:innen? Was verraten historische Quellen über die damals Schreibenden und ihre Schreibpraktiken?
  Der Sammelband widmet sich diesen und weiteren Fragen zur Rolle von Sprache in gesellschaftlichen und technologischen Wandelprozessen. Er umfasst deutsch- und englischsprachige Beiträge, die interessante Einblicke in die Variabilität von Einzelsprachen bieten und sich in drei Teile gliedern: Sprachgebrauch und Sprachidentitäten in historischen Schriftzeugnissen (Teil I), Sprachgebrauch im Spannungsfeld von Norm, Variation und Didaktik (Teil II) und Sprachgebrauch, Sprachidentitäten und Indexikalität im Wandel (Teil III). Ergänzend dazu wird in der Einleitung erläutert, welches Konzept von Sprachidentität dem Sammelband zugrunde liegt und welche Argumente dafür sprechen, von mehreren Sprachidentitäten auszugehen.
