  Stories of Cape Cod is a rich and engaging journey through one of America’s most storied regions, told town by town and voice by voice. 
  Written in an inviting, conversational style, Jack Johnson brings Cape Cod’s past to life through a series of short historical narratives and local anecdotes that span centuries of New England life. From the early settlements of Bourne and Sandwich to the windswept shores of Chatham and Wellfleet, each chapter explores the unique character of a Cape town—its people, its industries, its legends, and the events that shaped it. 
  Listeners will encounter tales of maritime adventure, wartime service, invention, and everyday resilience, alongside memorable figures such as Myles Standish, Daniel Webster, Admiral Nimitz, and the lesser-known but equally fascinating locals who defined their communities. Stories of glassmaking, canal construction, fishing, shipbuilding, and small-town enterprise paint a vivid portrait of Cape Cod as both a working landscape and a cultural crossroads. 
  Narrated with warmth and clarity by Tony J. Martin, this audiobook feels less like a formal history and more like a guided walk through time—full of human detail, quiet drama, and regional charm. 
  Perfect for listeners interested in New England history, American local color writing, or the enduring spirit of coastal communities, Stories of Cape Cod preserves the voices, memories, and traditions that continue to shape the Cape.

  "A subtle and universal exploration of identity." —Aida Alami, the New York Times 
   
   
   
  Cairo, 1963: four years before her lone novel is finally published, the writer Enayat al-Zayyat takes her own life at age twenty-seven. For the next three decades, it's as if Enayat never existed at all. 
   
   
   
  Years later, when celebrated Egyptian poet Iman Mersal stumbles upon Enayat's long-forgotten Love and Silence in a Cairo book stall, she embarks on a journey of reflection and rediscovery that leads her ever closer to the world and work of Enayat al-Zayyat. 
   
   
   
  In this luminous biographical detective story, Mersal retraces Enayat's life and afterlife though interviews with family members and friend, even tracking down the apartments, schools, and sanatoriums where Enayat spent her days. As Mersal maps two simultaneous psychogeographies—from the glamor of golden-age Egyptian cinema to the Cairo of Mersal's own past—a remarkable portrait emerges of two women striving to live on their own terms. With Traces of Enayat, Iman Mersal embraces the reciprocal relationship between a text and its reader, between past and present, between author and subject.

  Emotional Intelligence 20 - How...

  Even though emotional intelligence lacks the volume of quantitative empirical cognitive research that IQ has, the research in the field of cognitive learning has suggested that emotional intelligence is a key fundamental aspect of education. According to a report published by the National Center for Clinical Infant Programs, the level of success that a student has learned new material boils down to their levels of confidence, self-control, curiosity, their ability to communicate, their cooperativeness, their relatedness, and their intentionality. All these traits are aspects of emotional intelligence. More recently, social scientists are beginning to uncover the relationship of emotional intelligence to other organizational psychologies, such as leadership, group performance, individual performance, interpersonal exchange, performance evaluations, and change management. Humans are social beings, and as such, our level of success when dealing with people is intimately linked with our level of emotional intelligence.

  ·      What Is Emotional Intelligence and How Does It Impact the Workplace?

  Aged just seven, Suzanne Heywood set sail with her parents and brother on a three-year voyage around the world. What followed turned instead into a decade-long way of life, through storms, shipwrecks, reefs and isolation, with little formal schooling.

This memoir covers her astonishing upbringing, a survival story of a child deprived of safety, friendships, schooling and occasionally drinking water… At seventeen Suzanne earned an interview at Oxford University and returned to the UK.
