Sinossi

Thomas D'Arcy McGee's 'The History of Ireland' is a comprehensive and detailed account of Ireland's past, spanning from ancient Celtic times to the author's contemporary era. McGee's work is not merely a historical recollection but a passionate narrative that delves into the cultural, political, and social dynamics that shaped the Irish nation. Written in McGee's eloquent prose, the book provides insight into Ireland's struggle for independence and its rich heritage. Thomas D'Arcy McGee, a prominent Irish-Canadian politician and writer, was deeply connected to his homeland's history and politics. His own experiences as an Irish immigrant in Canada and involvement in Irish nationalist movements undoubtedly influenced his decision to pen this seminal work on Irish history. I highly recommend 'The History of Ireland' to readers interested in delving deep into the complex and fascinating history of Ireland. McGee's authoritative and impassioned voice offers a unique perspective on the Irish past, making this book a valuable resource for history enthusiasts and scholars alike.

    Fanny Price, in Mansfield Park, tells her persistent suitor that 'we have all a better guide in ourselves...than any other person can be'. Sometimes, however, we crave external guidance: and when this happens we could do worse than seek it in Jane Austen's own subtle novels. Written to coincide with Austen's 250th birthday, this approachable and intimate work shows why and how - for over half a century - Austen has inspired and challenged its author through different phases of her life. Part personal memoir, part expert interaction with all the letters, manuscripts and published novels, Janet Todd's book reveals what living with Jane Austen has meant to her and what it might also mean to others. Todd celebrates the undimmable power of Austen's work to help us understand our own bodies and our environment, and teach us about patience, humour, beauty and the meaning of home.

    A professor of psychology at Harvard encourages readers to open themselves up to a more mindful understanding of learning which allows the dynamic nature of information to guide their awareness of the world.Radical in its implications, this original and important work may change forever the views we hold about the nature of learning. In The Power of Mindful Learning, Ellen Langer uses her innovative theory of mindulness, introduced in her influential earlier book, to dramatically enhance the way we learn. In business, sports, laboratories, or at home, our learning is hobbled by certain antiquated and pervasive misconceptions. In this pithy, liberating, and delightful book she gives us a fresh, new view of learning in the broadest sense. Such familiar notions as delayed gratification, ”the basics”, or even ”right answers”, are all incapacitating myths which Langer explodes one by one. She replaces them with her concept of mindful or conditional learning which she demonstrates, with fascinating examples from her research, to be extraordinarily effective. Mindful learning takes place with an awareness of context and of the ever-changing nature of information. Learning without this awareness, as Langer shows convincingly, has severely limited uses and often sets on up for failure.With stunning applications to skills as diverse as paying attention, CPR, investment analysis, psychotherapy, or playing a musical instrument, The Power of Mindful Learning is for all who are curious and intellectually adventurous.
