  How to Analyze People - Master...

  All of us judge people when we see them, and even if we aren't consciously aware of the conclusions that we make about people, we still do make them, as that determines our actions towards people. Reading people is a human habit and one that we cannot get rid of. We read people because we are threatened by new people that we meet, we want to determine if this person is someone that we can trust or not and a lot of times we end up making the wrong decisions. 
  The purpose of this book is to make this inexact science of judging people a little more exact. By giving you some standards based on which you can judge people, you will become consciously aware of how people function, and more importantly, you'll have a guideline according to which you can read body language. It'll also help you to be sure about the conclusions you come to because a lot of times, our intuition tells us that something is wrong with a person, but we just shut it off because we are too scared of coming off as judgmental. 
  Analyzing people is not only good for protecting yourself but also helps you to communicate better with your loved ones. You can notice small things once you start looking at people, and you will know how to manufacture a situation where everyone can feel comfortable. Being able to read body language also gives you a sense of control since you have information about people that you can use to judge their intentions, control their behavior, and even your behavior. 
  In this book, we're going to take a look at how the process of analyzing people works, why self-awareness is important and the role it plays in analyzing others, the basics of nonverbal and verbal communication, some intricacies of human psychology and lastly, the practical applications that you can derive out of all this knowledge.

  The color of one's skin and passport have long dictated the conditions of travel.  For Shahnaz Habib, travel and travel writing have always been complicated pleasures. Habib threads the history of travel with her personal story as a child on family vacations in India, an adult curious about the world, and an immigrant for whom roundtrips are an annual fact of life. Tracing the power dynamics that underlie tourism, this insightful debut parses who gets to travel, and who gets to write about the experience. 
   
   
   
  Threaded through the book are inviting and playful analyses of obvious and not-so-obvious travel artifacts: passports, carousels, bougainvilleas, guidebooks, trains, the idea of wanderlust itself. Together, they tell a subversive history of travel as a Euro-American mode of consumerism—but as any traveler knows, travel is more than that. As an immigrant whose loved ones live across continents, Habib takes a deeply curious and joyful look at a troubled and beloved activity.

  The People Want - A Radical...

  'The people want' - thus began the slogans chanted by millions of protesters in 2011 in what was dubbed the 'Arab Spring'. ?While the protests revealed a long-suppressed craving for democracy, they also laid bare a deep structural crisis. In this landmark work, Middle East analyst Gilbert Achcar examines the socio-economic roots and political dynamics of the regional upheaval. He assesses the peculiarities of the region's states and regimes, and sheds light on the movements that use Islam as a political banner. Achcar argues that the Arab Spring was but the beginning of a long-term revolutionary process - a perspective confirmed by a second wave of uprisings in 2019 - and outlines the requirements for a solution to the crisis. This new edition features a preface drawing a balance sheet of the upheaval's first decade.

  Battle of Towton The: The...

  When the Battle of Towton took place on Palm Sunday in 1461 near a small village in Yorkshire, it was the largest and bloodiest battle ever fought on English soil. Towton was one of the battles of the Wars of the Roses, a series of civil wars ravaging England from 1455-1487. These marked the longest period England has been in unrest, surpassing the 12th century civil war between King Stephen and Empress Matilda (Maud), which lasted 15 years. 
  Today, roses are a sign of love and luxury, but for over 30 years, they provided the symbols for two houses at war for control of the English throne. Thousands of people died and many more were injured fighting beneath the white rose of York and the red rose of Lancaster, and the noble families ruling England tore each other apart in a struggle that was as bitter as it was bloody. Though what followed was a period of strong rule under the Tudors monarchs, it ultimately came at a terrible cost, and even then, it was through Elizabeth of York that the Tudor line received its legitimacy. After all, while Henry VII won his throne in battle, Elizabeth of York was the daughter of King Edward IV of England, a Yorkist monarch. 
  Despite their limited social and economic impact, the political and personal dramas of the Wars of the Roses have ensured that they are well remembered and still part of the popular imagination.
