Within these pages, you'll delve into the realm of semantics, where you'll discover the fascinating study of word meanings and the relationships between words and the concepts they represent. You'll uncover the power of context to transform meaning and explore the nuances of figurative language, revealing the hidden depths of expression.

Venturing into the realm of pragmatics, you'll uncover the art of effective communication. You'll learn to decipher the speaker's intentions behind their words, navigate the unspoken rules that govern conversations, and master the strategies for conveying meaning beyond the literal. You'll also gain insights into the challenges and opportunities of cross-cultural communication, bridging linguistic and cultural divides.

Sociolinguistics takes you on an exploration of the intricate relationship between language and society. You'll discover how language shapes our identity and worldview, the hidden power structures embedded in language, and the fascinating interplay between language and gender. You'll examine the role of language in shaping social groups and communities, and investigate the dynamics of language variation across different regions and social contexts.

Psycholinguistics opens the door to the fascinating inner workings of the human mind as it processes and produces language. You'll explore the remarkable journey of language acquisition, from a baby's first babbles to the development of complex linguistic structures. You'll investigate the architecture of language in the brain, unraveling the neural pathways that enable us to understand and produce speech. You'll delve into the complexities of bilingualism, examining the unique cognitive and linguistic challenges and benefits of speaking multiple languages.

Computational linguistics invites you to witness the convergence of technology and language. You'll explore the marvels of natural language processing, where machines are equipped with the ability to understand and generate human language. You'll investigate the intricacies of machine translation, the challenges of bridging the gap between different languages, and the potential of language modeling to predict words and phrases, paving the way for seamless human-computer interaction.

Historical linguistics takes you on a journey through time, tracing the evolution of languages and uncovering the hidden stories of their origins. You'll examine the processes of language change, the forces that drive linguistic diversification, and the fascinating relationships between languages. You'll explore the methods of comparative linguistics, which allow us to reconstruct ancient languages and uncover the common ancestors of modern-day tongues.

  • Hope Rising - How Christians Can End Extreme Poverty in This Generation - cover

    Hope Rising - How Christians Can...

    Extreme poverty does not have to exist. When Christians accept that fact and start living accordingly, we will find the solution is already within our reach. 
    Worldwide, 18,000 children die from preventable causes every day. If that statistic leaves you feeling powerless, you are not alone—but you are wrong. If a false sense of powerlessness has lulled you into apathy, it’s time to shake off the grogginess of low expectations and get to work. We can make this world a place where kids do not die from easily preventable diseases. 
    In Hope Rising, Scott Todd of Compassion International pens a galvanizing, comprehensive vision of the movement that will eradicate extreme global poverty through transformative Christian generosity—and do it within our lifetime. Todd provides riveting evidence to show that we are much closer to that goal than you might think. 
    According to Todd, we live in an historic moment, and chances are you are already part of it. The gospel is already reshaping lives from thoughtless consumption to informed concern. Twenty-first-century Christians are generating multi-continent grassroots movements through communications and travel. Public and private sectors are working together.  It’s a whole new era of philanthropy, compassion, and justice aimed at eradicating the pandemic of extreme global poverty. 
    This is a future we have the God-given power to create. This is the history we hope to write. 
    As Todd envisions, “The twenty-first-century Christians embraced the entirety of their gospel—the truths it proclaims and the muscles it demands—with a new integrity. They did not deteriorate into humanist liberalism, as some had feared. Nor did they pile works on top of Grace…They simply determined that their world did not need to have children dying of preventable causes such as dirty water.”

    Invested - How Three Centuries...

    Invested examines the perennial and nefarious appeal of financial advice manuals. Who hasn’t wished for a surefire formula for riches and a ticket to the good life? For three centuries, investment advisers of all kinds, legit and otherwise, have guaranteed that they alone can illuminate the golden pathway to prosperity—despite strong evidence to the contrary. In fact, too often, they are singing a siren song of devastation. And yet we keep listening. Invested tells the story of how the genre of investment advice developed and grew in the United Kingdom and the United States, from its origins in the eighteenth century through today, as it saturates our world. The authors analyze centuries of books, TV shows, blogs, and more, all promising techniques for amateur investors to master the ways of the market: from Thomas Mortimer’s pathbreaking 1761 work, Every Man His Own Broker, through the Gilded Age explosion of sensationalist investment manuals, the early twentieth-century emergence of a vernacular financial science, and the more recent convergence of self-help and personal finance. Invested asks why, in the absence of evidence that such advice reliably works, guides to the stock market have remained perennially popular. The authors argue that the appeal of popular investment advice lies in its promise to level the playing field, giving outsiders the privileged information of insiders. As Invested persuasively shows, the fantasies sold by these writings are damaging and deceptive, peddling unrealistic visions of easy profits and the certainty of success, while trying to hide the fact that there is no formula for avoiding life’s economic uncertainties and calamities.

    Do intrusive thoughts stifle your days? 
    Are you overwhelmed and paralysed by constant doubts? 
    Are anxiety and depression preventing you from living the life you want? 
      
    Anger, fear, sadness and shame are notoriously difficult emotions to manage, because nature has forged their purpose purely to protect us. Sometimes trauma can interfere with your ability to regulate your emotions, amplifying them and generating devastating effects for you and others. 
    It is very difficult to ignore these emotions. Sometimes they get in the way, impede your progress and make an intimate relationship or career advancement impossible. Although we can't control many of the things that happen to us, we can certainly control how we react to those things. 
      
    From this book you will learn:How CBT works.How mental patterns are established and vicious circles are blocked.What emotional levers are, and how to react to them.To eliminate anxiety, depression and panic attacks.How to set goals and begin to use CBT.Basic and advanced techniques of CBT.How to challenge (and beat) negative and automatic thoughts.How to prevent relapses. 
      
    CBT has incredible benefits, and perhaps the most encouraging aspect is that you do not need to spend anything on drugs and therapists, both of which can be an impediment to your progress. 
      
    This book will most likely not be the ‘complete cure’ for all your problems. HOWEVER, I GUARANTEE that if you read and re-read every single chapter carefully, ABSORB all the advice and APPLY the techniques provided by this manual, you will immediately experience a feeling of relief, and you will see significant improvements and progress in every aspect of your life.
