  Harnessing the energy of provocative theories generated by recent understandings of the human body, the natural world, and the material world, Material Feminisms presents an entirely new way for feminists to conceive of the question of materiality. In lively and timely essays, an international group of feminist thinkers challenges the assumptions and norms that have previously defined studies about the body. These wide-ranging essays grapple with topics such as the material reality of race, the significance of sexual difference, the impact of disability experience, and the complex interaction between nature and culture in traumatic events such as Hurricane Katrina. By insisting on the importance of materiality, this volume breaks new ground in philosophy, feminist theory, cultural studies, science studies, and other fields where the body and nature collide.

  The Earthquake - Your Journey...

  Personal catastrophes are like an earthquake: they leave us too shaken to know what to do next, afraid that every step we take might spark another upheaval. But we can learn to resist our human instinct to hide from challenges. In this entertaining modern-day fable, Vince Poscente introduces us to the well-intentioned, conscious ant and the habitually fearful, subconscious elephant as seismic destruction changes their world and ultimately forces them to leave their oasis. 
   
   
   
  What Adir the ant and Elgo the elephant learn—and what you'll learn by journeying with them—is that the linear path they used to reach the oasis in The Ant and the Elephant does not work in the chaos after an earthquake. How can they breakthrough and thrive after a life-altering setback? The answer lies in the "Solution Loop," a tool that teaches them to use collaboration, curiosity, and creativity to: reframe dark times as illuminating experiences; resist the impulse to go it alone; find fresh perspectives; and eek a path where you can enjoy the journey. 
   
   
   
  The methodology is told using the time-honored method of a parable. Offering prescriptive advice, and  based on Poscente's study of practices like decoding human behavior, the neuroscience of performance, and interpersonal dysfunction around fear, The Earthquake is a must-listen.

This practice is done for business reasons, because the author's name alone will sell the books, no matter who actually wrote them. 
  In this audiobook, you will learn why eBooks are great ways to earn money these days and if you don’t have a talent for writing, you can employ the services of ghost writers that will help you write them.

  'Excellent... surefooted and perceptive, enlivened by a wealth of vignettes and anecdotes which bring to life the dramatic and frequently horrific events that have played a seminal role in forming Chinese society as it exists today' PHILIP SHORT, author of Mao: A Life
  
  Mao launched the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution in 1966 to purge his critics and blood a new generation of fighters. Ten years later, almost two million people had been killed and much of China's heritage, from precious manuscripts to ancient temples, had been obliterated.
  
  The shadow of these terrible years lies heavily over the twenty-first-century nation. The history of this period is so toxic that China's rulers have gone to great lengths to bury it – while a few brave men and women risk their freedom to uncover the truth. For as both they and the Party know, to grasp the history of the Cultural Revolution is to understand much about China today.
  
  Bombard the Headquarters! is not just Mao's story. It's the unforgettable stories of countless individuals, mass manias, of sacred mangos, and spectacular falls from grace. At once rigorous and readable, brief yet teeming with colourful detail, this is a marvel of historical storytelling.
  
  'A beautifully concise account that makes sense of a hugely complex event in modern Chinese history. Linda Jaivin puts her formidable, deep experience both of Chinese history and language to excellent use, conveying in 100 pages what most would struggle to achieve in a thousand' KERRY BROWN, author of China Incorporated

  As Hispanic citizens rally to the political right, they will provide the economic, cultural, and political renaissance to save the American republic. 
   
   
   
  Hispanics have moved materially to the political right in recent years—but why? What explains this marked and sustained shift? Bad Hombres details the radicalism of the modern Democratic Party, which has turned so many outcasts into political orphans. Steve Cortes provides evidence of the massive benefits of this Hispanic surge to the right. Cortes himself has been a key driver of this mass political movement, first as the lead Hispanic face of the 2016 and 2020 Trump campaigns, and presently as the primary Latino advocate for the New Right—patriotic populism. Given this vantage point, Cortes makes a powerful case that reveals how the teetering American nation will find a national rescue by entrepreneurial, tradition-minded Hispanic citizens.
