Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the indie rock sensation known as Japanese Breakfast, an unforgettable memoir about family, food, grief, love, and growing up Korean American—“in losing her mother and cooking to bring her back to life, Zauner became herself” (NPR). • CELEBRATING OVER ONE YEAR ON THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER LIST In this exquisite story of family, food, grief, and endurance, Michelle Zauner proves herself far more than a dazzling singer, songwriter, and guitarist. With humor and heart, she tells of growing up one of the few Asian American kids at her school in Eugene, Oregon; of struggling with her mother's particular, high expectations of her; of a painful adolescence; of treasured months spent in her grandmother's tiny apartment in Seoul, where she and her mother would bond, late at night, over heaping plates of food. As she grew up, moving to the East Coast for college, finding work in the restaurant industry, and performing gigs with her fledgling band--and meeting the man who would become her husband--her Koreanness began to feel ever more distant, even as she found the life she wanted to live. It was her mother's diagnosis of terminal cancer, when Michelle was twenty-five, that forced a reckoning with her identity and brought her to reclaim the gifts of taste, language, and history her mother had given her. Vivacious and plainspoken, lyrical and honest, Zauner's voice is as radiantly alive on the page as it is onstage. Rich with intimate anecdotes that will resonate widely, and complete with family photos, Crying in H Mart is a book to cherish, share, and reread.

In this way, the book provides a recurrent thematic emphasis on the pragmatic consequences of theory and research for the activities of communication and living together in communities. Taken as a whole, this collection illustrates that communication and community cannot be adequately analyzed in any context without considering other contexts, other levels of analysis, and other media and modes of communication.

Download or read book Emotional Design written by Don Norman and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-03-20 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why attractive things work better and other crucial insights into human-centered design Emotions are inseparable from how we humans think, choose, and act. In Emotional Design, cognitive scientist Don Norman shows how the principles of human psychology apply to the invention and design of new technologies and products. In The Design of Everyday Things, Norman made the definitive case for human-centered design, showing that good design demanded that the user's must take precedence over a designer's aesthetic if anything, from light switches to airplanes, was going to work as the user needed. In this book, he takes his thinking several steps farther, showing that successful design must incorporate not just what users need, but must address our minds by attending to our visceral reactions, to our behavioral choices, and to the stories we want the things in our lives to tell others about ourselves. Good human-centered design isn't just about making effective tools that are straightforward to use; it's about making affective tools that mesh well with our emotions and help us express our identities and support our social lives. From roller coasters to robots, sports cars to smart phones, attractive things work better. Whether designer or consumer, user or inventor, this book is the definitive guide to making Norman's insights work for you.

Download or read book The Use of Trauma Hormones for Emotional Energy Harvesting written by Caraf Avnayt and published by Krshna Avnayt. This book was released on 2019 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rituals that involve harvesting the emotional energy of whole populations are the very root of why the world's mainstream media even exists and are given the powers they are given to promote an entity or agenda even against the interests of the people. The extent to which these rituals are rooted in human blood sacrifice, ritual abuse are known to few as well as they are to the Jews, who through history have been a favorite sacrificial object. The use of human hormones in the perfume industry is well known but very little has been written about hormones of trauma taken from those ritually abused are used by the media and public figures to create fear, terror and evoke strong emotion which is then manipulated. The author is herself a survivor of ritual abuse and her personal experience bears witness to the practices described in this book. In 1967 there was a blood sacrifice of Jews, Muslims and Christians planned in and around Jerusalem, under the guise of another Israel-Arab war. This war ended abruptly in Six Days and has since been called the Six Day War. One of the reasons for this was intelligence that revealed the day of what was to be a sudden attack on Israel on all its borders. This book is made up of excerpts from the book 'Sara In the Wheelwork' which is a fictionalized account based on true events. A ritual abuse survivor who had been rescued from India to Israel in 1959 found that trauma hormones taken from her were being 'activated' again and knew from past experience that this meant the media was going to use her trauma in a mass telecast or as part of yet another ritual involving blood sacrifice.
