Beschreibung

Bicycle History explores the captivating journey of the bicycle, revealing its profound influence on society and technology. More than just a mode of transport, the bicycle sparked social change, impacting urbanization and even the women's suffrage movement. The book traces the bicycle's evolution from rudimentary wooden contraptions to today's sophisticated models, highlighting its role in sports, recreation, and broader historical trends.

 
Early bicycles like the "dandy horse" paved the way for innovations such as the high-wheel bicycle and the safety bicycle, each representing significant technological leaps. The book uniquely combines technological history with social analysis. It examines how the bicycle became a symbol of freedom and independence, influencing urban planning and military strategies.

 
Bicycle History progresses through different stages of the bicycle's development, from early prototypes to its impact on society and the rise of cycling as a sport. Readers will gain insights into the bicycle's impact on engineering, sociology, and urban studies, solidifying its place as a catalyst for social progress and a reflection of humanity's innovative spirit.

Waiting for Mister Rogers reveals a Kindergarten teacher's journey to find answers for the broken children entering her classroom—and the wounds in her own heart—through the personal notes, speeches, and writings of Fred Rogers.

    At first, neither George Washington nor the Continental Congress approved of enlisting African Americans in the new army. Nevertheless, Black men—both slave and free—filled the ranks and served in all of the early battles. Black sailors also saw action in every major naval battle of the Revolution, including members of John Paul Jones's crew aboard the Bonhomme Richard. At least thirteen Black Americans served in the newly formed US Marine Corps during the war. 
     
     
      
    Bravery among African Americans was commonplace, as recognized by their commanders and state governments, and their bravery is recorded here in the stories of citizen Crispus Attucks at the Boston Massacre; militiaman Price Esterbrook at Lexington Green; soldier Salem Poor at Bunker Hill; and marine John Martin aboard the brig Reprisal. 
     
     
      
    As interest in colonial history enjoys renewed popularity due to works like Hamilton, and the issues of prejudice and discrimination remain at the forefront of our times, African Americans in the Revolutionary War offers an invaluable perspective on a crucial topic that touches the lives of Americans of every color and background.

    As election season swirls with fear-based platforms, this book offers a fresh approach to understanding one's personal perceptions of fear and the reactions they cause. Each topic is presented with an Interview, the Good news and the Not-So-Good News, a Mindfulness Practice, and an Affirmation.  
    We’ve all heard the warning at some point in life: “Go ahead. What’s to fear?” Little did we know just how big those words would impact our lives. They were meant to encourage and empower, but over time became engrained in our minds causing doubt and making us wonder, what else is there to fear? This has left some stuck with the same self-destructive fears they’ve had since childhood; fears that now hold them back from success, happiness, peace of mind, and even . . . love. 
    Fear is a natural survival skill that cannot be eliminated from our psyche—nor should it be because it’s a part of our inner fabric. So then, how do we grow and achieve the greatness life has to offer if our inherent fears keep trying to undermine us, to slow us down and divert us? We live in a world of mass media coverage and social networks that view the world with divisive intentions and opposing beliefs all in an effort to stir fear and build support. Instead of surrendering to our fears and obeying them, perhaps it’s time to listen and learn.Dennis Merritt Jones, DD has been practicing and teaching New Thought principles for over 40 years. These lessons serve to help people understand how their true inner nature can thrive and prosper in the real world where others tend to make it difficult to succeed. In this timely new book, When Fear Speaks, Listen, Dr. Dennis has identified the dominant “7 Messengers of Fear” that are alive and active within us: ANGER, WORRY, JUDGEMENT, SELFISHNESS, SHAME, LONELINESS, AND UNCERTAINTY
