Download or read book Delicate Homes written by Xena Mindhurst and published by Publifye AS. This book was released on 2024-10-08 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Delicate Homes" explores the profound impact of subtle design changes on personal well-being and happiness. This groundbreaking book bridges the gap between architecture, psychology, and self-improvement, arguing that small, intentional adjustments to our living spaces can significantly enhance our quality of life. The author introduces the concept of "delicate design," explaining how elements like light, color, and texture influence our emotions and behaviors. Structured in three parts, the book first explores the psychology of space and mindful design principles. It then offers practical, room-by-room guidance for implementing these ideas, and finally examines the long-term benefits of creating harmonious home environments. One intriguing concept introduced is "micro-zoning," the practice of creating distinct areas within a single space through subtle design cues. The book draws on diverse evidence, including case studies, expert interviews, and a unique year-long study conducted by the author. What sets "Delicate Homes" apart is its accessibility and focus on achievable changes. Unlike traditional home improvement guides, it emphasizes small, affordable adjustments that can have outsized impacts on well-being. By combining architectural theory with practical advice, the book offers a fresh perspective on how we can shape our environments to support our best selves, making it valuable for anyone seeking to improve their living space and, by extension, their life.

Download or read book Disasterology written by Samantha Montano and published by Harlequin. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part memoir, part expert analysis, Disasterology is a passionate and personal account of a country in crisis—one unprepared to deal with the disasters of today and those looming in our future. With temperatures rising and the risk of disasters growing, our world is increasingly vulnerable. Most people see disasters as freak, natural events that are unpredictable and unpreventable. But that simply isn’t the case – disasters are avoidable, but when they do strike, there are strategic ways to manage the fallout. In Disasterology, Dr. Montano, a disaster researcher, brings readers with her on an eye-opening journey through some of our worst disasters, helping readers make sense of what really happened from a emergency management perspective. She explains why we aren’t doing enough to prevent or prepare for disasters, the critical role of media, and how our approach to recovery was not designed to serve marginalized communities. Now that climate change is contributing to the disruption of ecosystems and worsening disasters, Dr. Montano offers a preview of what will happen to our communities if we don’t take aggressive, immediate action. In a section devoted to the COVID-19 pandemic, what is thus far our generation’s most deadly disaster, she casts light on the many decisions made behind closed doors that failed to protect the public. A deeply moving and timely narrative that draws on Dr. Montano's first-hand experience in emergency management, Disasterology is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand how our country handles disasters, and how we can better face them together.
Download or read book The Story of Avis written by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1985 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most prolific and popular American writers of her time, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps is, nearly a century later, once more coming to be considered a major author. The Story of Avis, her most ambitious and successful novel, has long been out of print and will prove a revelation to modern readers. Avis is the story of a larger-than-life heroine, a promising artist, who against her better judgment is persuaded by her lover, Philip Ostrander--a "new man"--to marry. The failure of their modern marriage, and in due course of Avis's career, is inevitable. Phelps depicts the turmoil of her characters' inner lives with great sensitivity and with a skill that is striking. A feminist who clearly saw the constraints of traditional gender roles upon women and men, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps was ahead of her own time in post-Civil War America. She remains highly readable today. "The Story of Avis (1877) will shock any reader who still thinks nineteenth-century American women's fiction is sentimental and pious. This novel is angry, not sentimental; iconoclastic, not pious; it concerns a talented and dedicated painter whose marriage destroys her genius."--Choice "This ornately articulate novel is playful; both kind and hopeful in its vision of the female conundrum. . . . I had intended to speed read it]. I ready every word."--Joyce Bright, Belles Lettres
