  THE NOTORIOUS B.I.G. 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  The Notorious B.I.G., born Christopher Wallace, was a highly influential American rapper, known for his laid-back lyrical delivery and storytelling. He rose to fame in the mid-90s, becoming a central figure in East Coast hip-hop with his debut album, Ready to Die (1994). He was known for exploring themes of hardship, criminality, and celebration. His life was tragically cut short in a drive-by shooting in 1997. Life After Death, his second album, was released posthumously and achieved massive commercial success. He is widely regarded as one of the greatest rappers of all time. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Christopher Wallace, known as The Notorious B.I.G., was raised as a Jehovah's Witness, and attended St. Peter Claver Church in Brooklyn, graduating from the college in 1982. He also excelled in English at Queen of All Saints Middle School. 
    
  Despite being an honor student, Wallace dropped out of school at the age of sixteen due to his growing interest in drug dealing. He was influenced by the crack epidemic of the 1980s and 1990s and began selling marijuana around age twelve. 
    
  Wallace's early musical influences included Black artists like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye, as well as jazz, reggae, soul, and mento during visits to Jamaica. He later became influenced by artists like Run-DMC and LL Cool J, adopting the stage name CWest and forming a group called the Techniques.

From Professor Lynn Hunt comes this extraordinary cultural and intellectual history, which traces the roots of human rights to the rejection of torture as a means for finding the truth. She demonstrates how ideas of human relationships portrayed in novels and art helped spread these new ideals and how human rights continue to be contested today.

  School as a community -...

  In search of leadership in Waldorf schools.
  Leadership in Waldorf schools has a specific history. Whereas 40 years ago it was hardly allowed to formally exist because it represented power and hierarchy, now it is commonplace to have a headmaster, rector or director. In this book, Hans Passenier examines the development of leadership and organisation in Waldorf schools. He starts at the origins and finds principles that can help develop school organisations and their leadership in the future. In four parts, he unfolds the foundations, the tools to develop leadership and organisations and finally describes exercises to support that development as a school community.
  His thesis is that education is about children being diverse, having different abilities. Also that the educator should not be a carpenter, but a gardener. The image of the school as an organism is guiding, in which the school community is a place for the inner development of each individual in that school community.
  The horizontal and vertical dimensions guide the view of both leadership and organisational design.

  “A tour de force of spine care from a master spine surgeon who has literally seen it all over the course of a four-decade career! This book is a must-read that is accessible to both the layperson and healthcare professionals. I found it both enjoyable and informative.” — Dr. Andrew J. Schoenfeld, Harvard Medical School professor and Spine editor in chief
  		 
  A practical and occasionally provocative look at the state of spinal surgical care
  		 
  Just a few decades ago most spine surgery was literally a gamble: maybe you’d get better and maybe you wouldn’t. Today we have the knowledge, understanding, and technology to predictably relieve pain and neurological deficits like never before — yet many patients are still getting subpar care.  
  		 
  Foundational knowledge of surgical spine care isn’t spreading to the medical community, let alone to patients, whose quality of life hangs in the balance. With The Back Story on Spine Care, orthopedic specialist Dr. Drew Bednar presents case studies that illuminate the common issues plaguing patients — and their treatment — today.
  		 
  Back problems are among the most common health issues, and with Dr. Bednar’s insights, knowledge, and practical tips, medical professionals can provide care that leads to healthier backs and happier lives.
