Book 2020 Year of Plenty

Download or read book 2020 Year of Plenty written by Dr Afiniki Akanet and published by Affinity Global Enterprises Limited. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her usual conversational style, Dr. Akanet, through her perspective as a GP (family doctor) and mother to two young children, shares her ups and downs of 2020, while trying to move house. Moving home, particularly when it involves buying or selling a house, has been noted to be one of the three most stressful life events, and doing so during a pandemic would make it even more challenging. 2020 brought with it challenges and changes most of us never expected, taking some of us to almost breaking point. This book will take you through one family’s journey, to discover how they survived such a tough year, and reflect on whether there could really be blessings to count for 2020. Based on true events, with stories about parenting, faith, marriage, patients, estate agents and immigrant perspectives, this book will bring you smiles, tears, inspiration and hope for the days ahead. Book Reviews: “A record of the real-life experiences of one medical family as the novel Coronavirus, emanating from Wuhan in China, slowly embraced the whole world. It is often amusing and sometimes poignant in its detail of her days in the 'new normal' and very surreal world into which we were all suddenly plunged!” - Paul Sheffield “I expected a book about 2020 to be all doom and gloom, but was surprised to find myself laughing out loud at times." - Dr. Anna Nguyen (GP) “Afiniki is not only a talented mother and professional, but an eternal feel-good optimist. If anyone is going to see the good in 2020, it is going to be Afiniki.” - Trish Adudu (BBC presenter) “This book is a very interesting read, and one which I am sure will be of great interest to school students in a couple of generations time” - Margaret Greenway “There’s no doubt that 2020 will live in all of our memories as a year like no other! But what have we learned through it? And what can we take away, moving forward? Have a read of one reflection of not only what was lost this year, but also what was gained.” - Diane Rickard

Book Fallow Lands of Plenty

Download or read book Fallow Lands of Plenty written by Eric Klein and published by IAP. This book was released on 2023-05-01 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can public schools feed themselves? That deceptively simple question is like a fingernail picking at a fray in the fabric of 21st century public education. Fallow Lands of Plenty chronicles one high school’s attempt to feed itself and, in doing so, unravels the fabric of neoliberal education, exposes its logics of dependence and control, and begins to weave a new tapestry of education for community cooperation and resilience. Set during the ongoing transition between post-industrial globalization and the community structures that are to come, this rich narrative moves from furrows of Appalachian red clay soil, to the mountaintop homesteads of elder seed savers, to the conveyor belts of sterilized food sorting machines, and, finally, to a school’s cafeteria on the day that 250 portions of student-grown sweet potatoes were served. Along the way, Fallow Lands centers knowledges of place as well as the literal and metaphorical seeds of relocalized food and education systems. Critical and theoretically informed, the text disobeys the values, purpose and canon of public education and proposes a fledgling pedagogy to address the challenges of the coming age. ENDORSEMENTS: "Eric Klein’s Fallow Lands of Plenty is a stirring manifesto for transforming public schools into centers of learning about community resilience and for transitioning to a “pedagogy of relocalization” that prepares students for the unstructuring of the hegemonic corporate food regime set in motion by climate collapse. What sets Fallow Lands of Plenty apart is the ethic of relational care that informs Klein’s deeply personal style of writing. Incisive, radical, and accessible, the writing uplifts students, teachers, elders, cafeteria women, and extension agents as co-producers of new modes of public schooling in rural Appalachia that foster collective ownership of learning and intergenerational transfers of knowledge cast out by official state curricula." — Anatoli Ignatov, Appalachian State University "A must read for today and tomorrow’s generations. Fallow Lands of Plenty reminds us that our ancestors did things a certain way, for certain reasons, and the survival of this knowledge may very well mean our own." — Heath Robertson, Cherokee Central Schools

Book Perils of Plenty

    Book Details:
  • Author : Jonathan N. Markowitz
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2020-04-02
  • ISBN : 0190078278
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Perils of Plenty written by Jonathan N. Markowitz and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-02 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among scholars who focus on the politics of natural resources, conventional wisdom asserts that resource-scarce states have the strongest interest in securing control over resources. Counterintuitively, however, in Perils of Plenty, Jonathan N. Markowitz finds that the opposite is true. In actuality, what states make influences what they want to take. Specifically, Markowitz argues that the more economically dependent states are on resource extraction rents for income, the stronger their preferences will be to secure control over resources. He tests the theory with a set of case studies that analyze how states reacted to the 2007 exogenous climate shock that exposed energy resources in the Arctic. Given the dangerous potential for conflict escalation in the Middle East and the South China Sea and the continued shrinkage of the polar ice cap, this book speaks to a genuinely important development in world politics that will have implications for understanding the political effects of climate change for many years to come.

Book Genesis Moshe 1

  • Release : 2021-07-01
  • ISBN : 1098074270
  • Pages : 337 pages

Download or read book Genesis Moshe 1 written by Mark Pitrone and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You are holding the author's notes on the book of Genesis as he has taught it for more than fifteen years on succeeding Sabbaths and on various venues, both "brick and mortar" and online. Some men have made a mess of what Elohenu (our God) revealed to the patriarchs and prophets, both Old and New Testaments, translating it with the biases of their rabbis or pastors or denominations. Mark is attempting (he even succeeds once in a while) to understand it and teach it as close to El's [God's] original intent as he can get by eliminating those doctrinal biases. (For instance, "God nailed the Law to the cross." There were exactly two things nailed to the Roman torture stake. What were they? Hint: One was Yeshua or Jesus. Matthew 27:37, Mark 15:26, Luke 23:38, John 19:19-look these up and then think.) If that teaser intrigues you, see what Moshe [Moses] has to say in Genesis. There's a lot more than just what's written on the page.

Book The Ho  Living in a World of Plenty

Download or read book The Ho Living in a World of Plenty written by Eva Reichel and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-08-10 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is set in the anthropologically much-neglected multi-ethnic interior of Highland Middle India. It is the result of fieldwork done over a period of more than a decade among the Ho, an indigenous community of approximately one million people, who have shared cultural norms and the space of the hilly region of the Chota Nagpur Plateau with other aboriginal (adivasi) and artisan communities for ages. The book explores the structured tapestry of Ho people’s relations and interrelatedness within their culture-specific sociocosmic universe ensuring their social reproduction in the present and affording them the means for and the awareness of living in a world of plenty. This world of abundance – with the Ho as its conceptual centre – includes the Ho’s dead, their complex spirit world and supreme deity, and their tribal and nontribal fellow humans, and it manifests itself in manifold facets of their lives: socially, ritually, economically, and linguistically. "This is an important piece of work. The ethnographic details in it are invaluable. The fieldwork is superb. What comes across so magnificently is that unique quality of the author's human and emotional contact and shared understanding with the people." MICHAEL YORKE: University College, London; Upside Films

Book One Kensington

Download or read book One Kensington written by Emma Dent Coad and published by Quercus. This book was released on 2022-09-22 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kensington and Chelsea - one of the wealthiest spots on planet Earth - is also one of the most unequal. A short walk from Harrods, families cannot buy enough food to feed themselves. Desperate overcrowding is found in the shadow of ultraluxury property developments. A 20 minute bus ride across the borough can encompass a 30 year difference in life expectancy. Emma Dent Coad, a councillor in Kensington and Chelsea since 2006, and has spent her life fighting for those left behind in the Royal Borough. That fight became all the more urgent when, just a few days after she was unexpectedly and triumphantly elected MP for the area, the Grenfell Tower disaster occurred, illustrating to the country and the world just how neglected the most vulnerable members of our society had become. One Kensington lays bare the appalling degree of mismanagement and neglect that has made Kensington and Chelsea a grim symbol of an ever more divided country: a glimpse of a wider future of hollowed-out local government and cynical corruption. But through the depth of community connections and tireless political organising, it also suggests a potentially hopeful future for a new Britain.

Book Let God Be True and Every Man a Liar

Download or read book Let God Be True and Every Man a Liar written by Lonnell Stewart and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-02-16 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let God Be True and Every Man a Liar Whether it is in science, religion, or just common interaction between people, there is a pattern that seems to be pervasive among human beings. Humans have the ability to manufacture just about any type of situation, embellish it, and spin an entire imaginative universe from it. However, in reality, there only exists a real universe that God has created, and no matter how man may try to manufacture a different one, it will never replace or make void God's. Oftentimes people accept the many weird and fanciful detailed and well-thought-out reasonings presented such as aliens from outer space being the creators of our world or living things automatically springing from nonliving things given a certain amount of time. But realistically and logically carried to its final conclusion, none really adds up. It is only when an eternal and intelligent living God is made to be the source and foundation for the world in which we live do the parts begin to equal the whole. In this book, on focusing on the inclusion of God in the source and foundation of the parts, it is much easier to make the parts add up to equal the whole.

  • Pages : 234 pages

Download or read book Year of Plenty written by Craig L. Goodwin and published by Sparkhouse Press. This book was released on with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2008, Pastor Craig Goodwin and his young family embarked on a year-long experiment to consume only what was local, used, homegrown, or homemade. In Year of Plenty, Goodwin shares the winsome story of how an average suburban family stumbled onto the cultural cutting edge of locavores, backyard chickens, farmers markets, simple living, and going green. More than that, it is the timely tale of Christians exploring the intersections of faith, environment, and everyday life.This humorous yet profound book comes at just the right time for North American Christians, who are eager to engage the growing interest in the environmental movement and the quandaries of modern consumer culture. It speaks also to the growing legions of the "spiritual but not religious" who long for ways to connect heaven and earth in their daily lives.Contents Adobe Acrobat DocumentForeword Adobe Acrobat DocumentChapter 1 Adobe Acrobat DocumentSamples require Adobe Acrobat ReaderHaving trouble downloading and viewing PDF samples?"Craig Goodwin invites us into a life of paying attention. This is an experiment in God's ordinary: life centered in relationship, lived in a physical world of spiritual meaning, and expressed in daily acts of attentiveness that are unhooked from patterns that degrade us and imperil the world. It turns out to be a wonderful and complicating adventure. Free from grandiosity, sentimentality, or ideology, this book tells its story with captivating humanity and motivating honesty."-Mark LabbertonDirector, Ogilvie Institute for PreachingFuller Theological SeminaryAuthor of The Dangerous Act of Worship"As someone who had gotten good at resisting grumpy calls to reject our consumerist culture, I found this book delightfully refreshing and compelling. Craig Goodwin describes an experiment in 'familial art'-a creative effort to seek out new and very practical experiments living as more faithful stewardship of the earth's resources. I haven't started raising chickens or making homemade butter (yet!) after reading this wonderful book-but I have learned some profound lessons."-Richard J. MouwPresident and Professor of Christian PhilosophyFuller Theological Seminary"Many clergy and other church leaders ask for examples of how and where missional work is actually taking place. Here is a leader faithfully engaging this work in a practical, local, on-the-ground way that leads to new expressions of church in mission. This is the kind of story about a church-in-process we need to hear."-Alan J. RoxburghFounder of the Missional NetworkAuthor of The Missional LeaderAdjunct Professor at Fuller Theological Seminary"I heartily recommend Goodwin's charming, thoughtful, and extremely funny book. With remarkable insight and refreshing humility, Craig Goodwin takes us with him and his family as they learn who and what is behind the things we so often thoughtlessly purchase. Goodwin reminds us how much of community and life we have sacrificed in the name of convenience and low price. Through engaging narrative he skillfully integrates lessons on faith, life, and God, integrating the spiritual with the material and the local with the global. This is an important contribution to the ongoing conversation about our role as Christians in taking care of and enjoying God's creation."-Scott SabinExecutive Director, Plant With PurposeAuthor of Tending to Eden: Environmental Stewardship for God's PeopleReview in Eco-Journey
