Synopsis

"Meter Mechanics" explores the foundational elements that shape poetry across various cultures, revealing the hidden architecture of verse. It highlights how understanding rhythm and sound enhances our appreciation of poetic artistry. Intriguingly, poets throughout history have used techniques ranging from classical quantitative meters to accentual-syllabic systems, demonstrating meter's adaptability.

 
The book argues that a thorough grasp of metrical systems offers deeper insights into a poet's intentions and a work's cultural context. The book uniquely combines rigorous analysis with a broad, comparative approach. It guides readers through fundamental concepts like foot, line, and stanza, then examines the historical development of meter in diverse poetic traditions. Finally, it focuses on the practical application of metrical analysis, demonstrating how to identify and interpret metrical patterns. 

 
This journey allows readers to understand how metrical choices contribute to a poem's overall meaning and effect, enriching their engagement with language arts and poetry.

    Caregiving for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease or dementia is hard but with this book, you and your family will successfully face the challenges that these diseases present. 
     
    Dementia is a very common neurological disease of aging affecting millions of people in complex ways. There are multiple forms of the dementia, including Alzheimer's Disease, Lewy Body Dementia, Frontotemporal Dementia, and vascular dementia, among others, and many share features of slowly progressive and profound changes affecting memory, thinking, behavior, and personality. The disease often introduces personal and even financial strains, which can be at times hard to understand. Unfortunately, most forms of dementia have no definitive treatments to prevent, slow, or stop the progression, but there is a concerted effort in the scientific community to change this. There is a consistent hope that there will soon be a new era of scientific breakthroughs impacting dementia. Now, and in the future, patients with dementia, their friends, and their families need resources to successfully face the challenges introduced by the disease.Navigating Life with Dementia thoroughly covers the complexities of the dementias, the establishment of a diagnosis, what to expect throughout the stages of disease, and how to best anticipate and manage common problems.

    We broke our new series on learning Vietnamese down into different learning stages. Start with the "Lower Beginner" books followed by the "Beginner" and "Upper Beginner" books. Next, progress to the "Intermediate" series, then test and reinforce your knowledge with the "Conversations" series. 
    This audiobook is divided into units.While it provides different learning patterns and accommodates various needs, this audiobook focuses on helping you improve your ability to understand, speak, and memorise Vietnamese.  
    In Unit 1 you will hear Vietnamese decoded with each syllable spoken very slowly and clearly with repetition. Immediately before each sentence is spoken, you will hear the translation, so you will always understand what is being said. 
    Unit 2 focuses solely on increasing your listening ability, which will improve your abilities to engage in dialogue with a native Vietnamese speaker. This chapter requires you to listen very carefully to nuances in the language. 
    By Unit 3 you will already notice progress in your abilities to speak and understand Vietnamese. The spoken translation is followed by two repetitions in Vietnamese at a completely natural speed. While you are learning to process naturally spoken Vietnamese, Units 3 and 4 will help you memorise new vocabulary and full sentences. 
    In Unit 5 you can test yourself on how much you have learned. If you are having difficulties, we suggest you revisit the listening, speaking, or memorisation section of Units 1, 2 3 or 4, according to what you need more help with.

    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    “Children of Time” by Adrian Tchaikovsky explores the journey of humanity’s last survivors as they flee a dying Earth, seeking refuge on a distant, terraformed planet. However, the planet’s previous terraforming efforts have led to unexpected consequences, including the evolution of a new, intelligent species. The story focuses on the clash between humanity, struggling to survive, and the rapidly advancing civilization of spiders. Themes of evolution, survival, artificial intelligence, and the ethics of creation are central, raising questions about what it means to be human and the potential for other forms of sentience to inherit the Earth.

  • Slave Breeding - Sex Violence and Memory in African American History - cover

    Slave Breeding - Sex Violence...

    Gregory D. Smithers

    For over two centuries, the topic of slave breeding has occupied a controversial place in the master narrative of American history. From nineteenth-century abolitionists to twentieth-century filmmakers and artists, Americans have debated whether slave owners deliberately and coercively manipulated the sexual practices and marital status of enslaved African Americans to reproduce new generations of slaves for profit. 
     
     
     
    In this bold and provocative book, historian Gregory Smithers investigates how African Americans have narrated, remembered, and represented slave-breeding practices. He argues that while social and economic historians have downplayed the significance of slave breeding, African Americans have refused to forget the violence and sexual coercion associated with the plantation South. By placing African American histories and memories of slave breeding within the larger context of America's history of racial and gender discrimination, Smithers sheds much-needed light on African American collective memory, racialized perceptions of fragile black families, and the long history of racially motivated violence against men, women, and children of color.

    In 2005, firebrand radio talk show host Neal Boortz and Georgia congressman John Linder created The FairTax Book, presenting the American public with a bold new plan designed to eliminate federal taxes and the IRS, jump-start the U.S. economy, bring back lost industries and jobs, and recapture billions of untaxed dollars currently hoarded by criminal and offshore businesses. Their book became an immediate #1 New York Times bestseller, igniting a powerful grassroots tax reform movement that's spreading like wildfire across our nation. 
    Now, three years later, the authors are back to answer the outspoken and misinformed critics of their innovative proposal. Offering stunning new insights not covered in the original book, FairTax: The Truth debunks the negative myths and gross misrepresentations of this groundbreaking idea. The FairTax plan is simple, brilliant, and it will work—enabling you to keep all the money in your paycheck; eliminating the fraud, hassle, and waste of our current system; and revolutionizing the way America pays for itself.
