Book excerpt: A darkly insightful evocation of the post-industrial era, Joy, PA tells the story of a family teetering on the precipice of ruin. The Augenbaughs live in a broken and decaying town where the last vestiges of country-club wealth run up against the terrible realities of working-class poverty. Abigail, a fervent believer in the apocalyptic teachings of a radio preacher, is desperate to save her son from Judgment Day as she readies herself for the Rapture-due to arrive in just a few days. Her husband, Burns, has moved to the basement to live out his days in a medicated stupor, unable to cope with memories of his service in Iraq. Caught between the suffering of his mother and father, ten-year-old Willie fights the inherited demons that have savaged his parents' tenuous grasp on reality. The somber drama surrounding the Augenbaughs plays out with a piercing and commanding lyrical beauty. Both transfixing and disconcerting, Steven Sherrill's empathetic portrait of alienation elicits hope and sympathy amidst shattered but no-less-dignified lives.

Download or read book Connection Mode written by Nancy Sokol Green and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Connection Mode is a fantastic book! As a physician, I can highly recommend that my patients empower themselves with the wealth of knowledge and solutions offered in this book.” ​—Andrea Lorenze, MD “I can attest from personal experience with my family and patients to how effective this approach is. This revealing and insightful book will benefit all adults and kids.” —Robert Schwartz, MD, FAAPMR “Nancy’s ability to understand the complexities of the brain and nervous system and teach them to children, parents, and educators with such ease, understanding, and humor is life changing for everyone.” —Jen Larson, MSEd, school counselor Could simple changes to your brain and nervous system make your life easier? Drawing on humorous examples, true stories, and playful analogies, Connection Mode shows how our nervous system—including a surprisingly common missed opportunity to finish our lower brain development—often interferes with our lives in ways we don’t even realize. The book answers questions such as: • How can I stop feeling anxious, tired, and overwhelmed so much of the time? • How does my nervous system play a role when I argue or shut down in relationships? • How might my nervous system influence how I learn? • Why should I care if I never finished developing my lower brain? The good news is that we are all innately wired to live mainly in connection mode, in which each of us can learn with joy, be curious, show compassion, focus, and show up as who we truly are. Our brain and nervous system may just need a little help remembering that not everything in life is an attacking tiger. Connection Mode distills decades of compelling information from the Brain Highways program, which has guided 20,000 kids and adults to improve their lives by changing their brain and nervous system. The book offers a simple, time-tested trifecta approach for restoring our nervous system’s flexibility, which is the gateway to living primarily in connection mode. Once our nervous system no longer sees everything as a threat, the problems we had either disappear altogether or show up in ways that are not so stressful. Educator Nancy Green’s approachable voice and relatable stories may cause you to rethink what you believe about common diagnoses, anxiety, relationships, personalities, learning, and more. After reading Connection Mode, you’ll find it impossible not to look at others—and perhaps even yourself—with more curiosity and compassion. And if you incorporate the book’s specific actions, you’ll be well on the path to an easier life.

Book excerpt: Meet Michael Skelly, the man boldly harnessing wind energy that could power America’s future and break its fossil fuel dependence in this “essential, compelling look into the future of the nation’s power grid” (Bryan Burrough, author of The Big Rich). The United States is in the midst of an energy transition. We have fallen out of love with dirty fossil fuels and want to embrace renewable energy sources like wind and solar. A transition from a North American power grid that is powered mostly by fossil fuels to one that is predominantly clean is feasible, but it would require a massive building spree—wind turbines, solar panels, wires, and billions of dollars would be needed. Enter Michael Skelly, an infrastructure builder who began working on wind energy in 2000 when many considered the industry a joke. Eight years later, Skelly helped build the second largest wind power company in the United States—and sold it for $2 billion. Wind energy was no longer funny—it was well on its way to powering more than 6% of electricity in the United States. Award-winning journalist, Russel Gold tells Skelly’s story, which in many ways is the story of our nation’s evolving relationship with renewable energy. Gold illustrates how Skelly’s company, Clean Line Energy, conceived the idea for a new power grid that would allow sunlight where abundant to light up homes in the cloudy states thousands of miles away, and take wind from the Great Plains to keep air conditioners running in Atlanta. Thrilling, provocative, and important, Superpower is a fascinating look at America’s future.

Download or read book The Power of Opposition written by Simone Wegmann and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proposing a novel way to look at the consolidation of democratic regimes, this book presents important theoretical and empirical contributions to the study of democratic consolidation, legislative organization, and public opinion. Theoretically, Simone Wegmann brings legislatures into focus as the main body representing both winners and losers of democratic elections. Empirically, Wegmann shows that the degree of policy-making power of opposition players varies considerably between countries. Using survey data from the CSES, the ESS, and the LAPOP and systematically analyzing more than 50 legislatures across the world and the specific rights they grant to opposition players during the policy-making process, Wegmann demonstrates that neglecting the curial role of the legislature in a democratic setting can only lead to an incomplete assessment of the importance of institutions for democratic consolidation. The Power of Opposition will be of great interest to scholars of comparative politics, especially those working on questions related to legislative organization, democratic consolidation, and/or public opinion.
