Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hey there, it's Srinidhi Ranganathan, the master brain behind Bookspotz (bookspotz.com), the groundbreaking independent publication that took flight in May 2023. Partnering with the incredible Mr. Mohan Leela Shankar the AI Veteran, we set out to create something extraordinary - something out of the blue. The seed for Bookspotz was planted in our shared love for books and a burning desire to establish a platform that would redefine how readers discover captivating titles. Mr. Shankar and I, both passionate readers, had been immersed in discussions about our favourite reads for years. It was during one of these conversations, while dissecting the pages of the latest tech book, that we realized the absence of a centralized platform offering mind-blowing articles tailored to a reader's unique interests. We had experienced the struggle of finding compelling articles even on popular platforms, resorting to generic recommendations from friends, article directories, or online lists that didn't always hit the mark. This revelation ignited the spark to birth Bookspotz—a platform poised to revolutionize the internet by delivering cutting-edge articles to the masses. Months were dedicated to intense research and development, collaborating with a team of AI experts and software engineers to ensure Bookspotz was not only accurate but also user-friendly. Our mission was to create a haven for readers who craved tailored content. Alongside, we assembled a talented team of writers and editors committed to churning out top-notch content. Finally, in May 2023, the curtains lifted, and Bookspotz took its place in the digital realm. The response was overwhelming, with readers from every corner of the globe embracing the platform, subscribing eagerly to catch the latest articles and exclusive content. Bookspotz had become a haven for readers seeking a personalized and enriching literary experience. This Volume 1 book sets to outline the best of Bookspotz articles and videos that we’ve created till now. Happy exploring! Yours truly, Digital Marketing Legend, Srinidhi Ranganathan

Download or read book Hidden in Plain Sight written by Daniel J. K. Beavon and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Aboriginal people in Canada taught in schools and depicted in the media tends to focus on Aboriginal displacement from native lands and the consequent social and cultural disruptions they have endured. Collectively, they are portrayed as passive victims of European colonization and government policy, and, even when well intentioned, these depictions are demeaning and do little to truly represent the role Aboriginal peoples have played in Canadian life. Hidden in Plain Sight adds another dimension to the story, showing the extraordinary contributions Aboriginal peoples have made – and continue to make – to the Canadian experience. From treaties to contemporary arts and literatures, Aboriginal peoples have helped to define Canada and have worked to secure a place of their own making in Canadian culture. For this volume, editors David R. Newhouse, Cora J. Voyageur, and Daniel J.K. Beavon have brought together leading scholars and other impassioned voices, and together, they give full treatment to the Aboriginal contribution to Canada's intellectual, political, economic, social, historic, and cultural landscapes. Included are profiles of several leading figures such as actor Chief Dan George, artist Norval Morrisseau, author Tomson Highway, activist Anna Mae Pictou Aquash, and politician Phil Fontaine, among others. Canada simply would not be what it is today without these contributions. The first of two volumes, Hidden in Plain Sight is key to understanding and appreciating Canadian society and will be essential reading for generations to come.

Download or read book Into the Woods written by John Yorke and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2014-05-29 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of the fundamental narrative structure, why it works, the meanings of stories, and why we tell them in the first place. The idea of Into the Woods is not to supplant works by Aristotle, Lajos Egri, Robert McKee, David Mamet, or any other writers of guides for screenwriters and playwrights, but to pick up on their cues and take the reader on a historical, philosophical, scientific, and psychological journey to the heart of all storytelling. In this exciting and wholly original book, John Yorke not only shows that there is truly a unifying shape to narrative—one that echoes the great fairytale journey into the woods, and one, like any great art, that comes from deep within—he explains why, too. With examples ranging from The Godfather to True Detective, Mad Men to Macbeth, and fairy tales to Forbrydelsen (The Killing), Yorke utilizes Shakespearean five-act structure as a key to analyzing all storytelling in all narrative forms, from film and television to theatre and novel-writing—a big step from the usual three-act approach. Into the Woods: A Five-Act Journey into Story is destined to sit alongside David Mamet’s Three Uses of the Knife, Robert McKee’s Story, Syd Field’s Screenplay, and Lajos Egri’s The Art of Dramatic Writing as one of the most original, useful, and inspiring books ever on dramatic writing. Praise for Into the Woods “Love storytelling? You need this inspiring book. John Yorke dissects the structure of stories with a joyous enthusiasm allied to precise, encyclopedic knowledge. Guaranteed to send you back to your writing desk with newfound excitement and drive.” —Chris Chibnall, creator/writer, Broadchurch and Gracepoint “Outrageously good and by far and away the best book of its kind I’ve ever read. I recognized so much truth in it. But more than that, I learned a great deal. Time and again, Yorke articulates things I’ve always felt but have never been able to describe. . . . This is a love story to story—erudite, witty and full of practical magic. I struggle to think of the writer who wouldn’t benefit from reading it—even if they don’t notice because they’re too busy enjoying every page.” —Neil Cross, creator/writer, Luther and Crossbones “Part ‘how-to’ manual, part ‘why-to’ celebration, Into the Woods is a wide-reaching and infectiously passionate exploration of storytelling in all its guises . . . exciting and thought-provoking.” —Emma Frost, screenwriter, The White Queen and Shameless
