  Enneagram - Discover Yourself...

  The Enneagram isn't about classifying people into a certain type according to a few questions and leaving them there with all the judgments that come with their personality type. In reality, the Enneagram is a complex system that keeps on giving you secret internal knowledge about yourself and your psyche the more you delve into it. The Enneagram recognizes nine types of personalities, each with their own attributes that interact with each other to form the core of your being. By studying each personality, you can get a deeper understanding of people, their motives and desires, and the core beliefs that surround everything they do.  
  The Enneagram is also important because of the knowledge it can give you about your words and actions. We tend to have very little information about ourselves because most of our motives and drives are so inherent to us that we have lost any trace of their emergence. The behavior that we normalize might just be toxic, and we aren't able to see it for what it is because we are blinded by ourselves.  
  In this book, we’re going to take a look at the idea of identity and what it means, the perspective that the Enneagram presents us with on identity, how you can use the Enneagram personality test to help you and your partner formulate a better relationship, how by identifying your personality type you can achieve self-growth, the different subtypes under the main Enneagram types, how it can be used at work and business to make communication better within the corporation, and how parents can use the Enneagram personality types to help their children.

  Scottish History - William...

  This book consists of two titles: 
  Book 1: Scotland is an old country with an ancient history. There is no doubt about that. Many traditions, words, symbols, and other cultural aspects we see as normal today, originate from Scotland. Scotland's documented history started with the Roman Empire's entryway in the first century, when the province of Britannia broadened as far north as the Antonine Wall. Caledonia, to the north, was home to the Picti, whose uprisings drove Rome's armies back to Hadrian's Wall. As Rome withdrew from Britain, the Scoti, a group of Gaelic pirates, started colonizing Western Scotland and Wales. Ancient Scotland saw the Neolithic Age around 4000 BC, the Bronze Age around 2000 BC, and the Iron Age around 700 BC before the arrival of the Romans. 
  Book 2: The Film "Brave Heart" has it right on some points but does a bad job with historic precision with others, most likely because they're just attempting to dramatize a Hollywood film, not promoting dull precision. Let's see what info we can learn from history about the real William Wallace. William Wallace was a Scottish knight. In order to comprehend the impact of that time's knight civilization and roles, we will discuss the idea itself. We will also discuss the brutal reign of Edward I of England, the sadistic murder of William Wallace (worse than you might think), and several other factors contributing to his capture, his resistance, and his following.

  uTOpia - Towards a New Toronto

  Alana Wilcox, Jason McBride

  Since the election of Mayor David Miller in November 2003, Toronto has experienced a wave of civic pride and enthusiasm not felt in decades. At long last, Torontonians see their city as a place of possibility and potential. Visions of a truly workable, liveable and world-class city are once again dancing in citizens’ heads. In the past two years, this spirit has, directly or indirectly, manifested itself in multifarious forms: in writer Sheila Heti’s sui generis lecture series, Trampoline Hall; in the transformation of derelict hotels such as the Drake and the Gladstone into cultural hotspots; in renewed interest in waterfront revitalization and public transportation; in exciting, controversial architectural developments such as the OCAD building, the expansion of the ROM and the AGO; in the [murmur] project, which catalogues stories about Toronto neighbourhoods and broadcasts them to people’s cell phones; in the explosion of the local independent music scene.
     
  uTOpia aims to capture and chronicle that spirit, collecting writing by many of the people inspired by and involved in these projects. Featuring passionate, visionary essays by thirty-four different journalists, artists, thinkers, architects and activists, uTOpia is a compendium of ideas, opinions and strategies. The anthology explores plans to redevelop the Island airport into a Ward’s Island-style community; how the Zeidlerfamily is energizing artist-run centres; what a car-free Kensington Market might mean; the necessity and beauty of laneway housing; the way past efforts to combat devastating developments like the Spadina Expressway have shaped current activism; what a utopian Toronto might look like mapped out; and much, much more. Playful, erudite and accessible, uTOpia writes Toronto as it is shared and created by the people who live here. Though it is by no means a complete picture of what is happening in the city right now, it will hopefully show that what was once just a T-shirt slogan – I Heart T.O. – is now genuine, heartfelt sentiment.
