Sinopse

In 'Cappy Ricks Retires', Peter B. Kyne explores themes of perseverance, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit. Set in the early 20th century, this book follows the titular character, Cappy Ricks, as he navigates the challenges of retirement and ultimately finds himself returning stronger than ever. Kyne's writing style is engaging and filled with vivid descriptions that transport the reader back in time. The book also delves into the complexities of family dynamics and the importance of maintaining a sense of purpose in one's later years. With its engaging plot and well-developed characters, 'Cappy Ricks Retires' is a compelling read for fans of classic literature and historical fiction. Peter B. Kyne, known for his ability to craft heartwarming and insightful stories, brings his unique perspective to this tale of redemption and second chances. His own experiences may have influenced the themes of resilience and never giving up that are prevalent throughout the book. I recommend 'Cappy Ricks Retires' to readers looking for a touching and inspirational story that resonates with the human spirit.

    The American workplace exhibits a growing imbalance when it comes to human identity. Leaders are frequently defined in the absence of their critical social identifiers, but the exclusion of these identifiers is a mistake and ignores essential physical, cultural, and spiritual realities. Their exclusion is especially problematic for leaders of the Black identity and the Christian faith. Color-blind ideology harms people of color, while religion-blind systems damage people of faith, and both are especially problematic for individuals who reckon with both realities.Rather than abandoning an individual's social identities, the ones we choose and the ones we do not, Leading While Black draws on the lived experiences of executive-level leaders of the Christian faith and Black identity, and offers a testament to the power of a living God in the social fabric of public life. Instead of ignoring the narrative arc of social identities and the weight they carry when considering an individual's conception of leadership, Torrance Jones leans into the value of those identities and asserts their integral importance for Black leaders and for those who work with and for Black voices.

    David Hume (1711–1776) is a towering and intriguing figure. He was the preeminent philosopher in what is now called the Scottish Enlightenment, a time that was “crowded with genius” and in a place regarded as the rebirth of the golden era of Athens. His writing displayed an astonishing range, addressing everything from metaphysics to politics, and in subject after subject he produced fresh, novel, and brilliant insights.

    ***Evening Standard's best non-fiction 2021*** 
     
    'A brilliant, searing exposé of the lies underpinning work' - Owen Jones 
     
    'Work hard, get paid.' It's simple. Self-evident. But it's also a lie—at least for most of us. For people today, the old assumptions are crumbling; hard work in school no longer guarantees a secure, well-paying job in the future. Far from a gateway to riches and fulfilment, 'work' means precarity, anxiety and alienation. 
     
    In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by award-winning actor Libby Mai, Amelia Horgan poses three big questions: what is work? How does it harm us? And what can we do about it? While abolishing work altogether is not the answer, Lost in Work shows that when we are able to take control of our workplaces, we become less miserable, and can work towards the transformative goal of experimenting with 'work' as we know it. 
    Whether you listen on your commute, or while working from home, Lost in Work will empower you to see beyond the systematic problems you face at your job.
