Summary

In a world where borders are increasingly blurred and people are more mobile than ever before, migration has become a defining issue of our time. This book tells the stories of some of the millions of people who have left their home countries in search of a better life.

Through a collection of personal narratives, this book explores the challenges and rewards of migration. The migrants in this book come from all over the world and have migrated for a variety of reasons. Some have fled war or persecution, while others have sought economic opportunities or a better life for their families.

No matter their reasons for leaving, all of the migrants in this book have faced challenges in their new countries. They have had to learn new languages, adapt to new cultures, and find new jobs. They have also faced discrimination and prejudice. But they have also found new opportunities, made new friends, and built new lives.

Their stories are a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit. They show us that even in the face of great difficulty, people can overcome adversity and achieve their dreams. They also remind us that migration is a complex issue with no easy answers. There are both challenges and rewards to migration, and each migrant's experience is unique.

This book is a valuable contribution to the literature on migration. It provides a nuanced and personal perspective on this important issue. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the challenges and rewards of migration.

    AN INNOVATIVE INVESTIGATION OF THE FIVE STRANGE WORLDS THAT WORSHIP WOMEN’S CHESTS. 
 
After years of biopsies, best-selling author Sarah Thornton made the difficult decision to have a double mastectomy. But, after her reconstructive surgery, she was perplexed: What had she lost? And gained? An experienced sleuth, she resolved to venture behind the scenes to uncover the social and cultural significance of breasts.  
 
Riotous and galvanizing, Tits Up excavates the diverse truths of mammary glands from the strip club to the operating room, from the nation’s oldest human milk bank to the fit rooms of bra designers. Thornton draws insights from plastic surgeons, lactation consultants, body-positive witches, lingerie models, and “free the nipple” activists to explore the status of breasts as emblems of femininity. She examines how women’s chests have become a billion-dollar business, as well as a stage for debates about race, class, gender, and desire.  
 
Everywhere she turns, Thornton encounters chauvinistic myths about this elemental body part that quietly justify deficits in women’s bodily autonomy and endorse shortfalls in their political status. Blending sociology, reportage, and personal narrative with refreshing optimism and wit, Thornton has one overriding ambition—to liberate breasts from centuries of patriarchal prejudice. 
 
“With a sociologist’s eye, a reporter’s nose, and a double-D brain, Sarah Thornton explores the contradictions, power, and fundamental formidability of breasts. … Exquisitely written and consistently illuminating.”—Mary Roach, New York Times best-selling author

    BOOK SUMMARY: This book takes a deep dive into the Old Testament and New Testament's use and development of the Wedding Metaphor in Scripture. The book develops the importance of the Wedding Metaphor in understanding the heart and character of God Himself. Additionally, we learn some amazing aspects of the plans and purposes of God regarding the Creation from beginning to the end of time. The Wedding Metaphor also supplies a new perspective on understanding the actions of God regarding the life and death of Jesus. This includes some insightful and helpful new understandings of the meaning of the cross (the atonement). Most importantly the book develops a clear view of God's intentions to re-create the Shalom of the Garden of Eden environment in the New Creation to come. ADDITIONAL INFO: This book represents a study of scripture through the consideration of the wedding metaphor. It emphasizes metaphor as a means of "inter-realm" communication. This facilitates those of us living in the earthly realm, being given a better insight into the events and reality of the spiritual realm.
