Download or read book Not Much Fun written by Dorothy Parker and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-10-20 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dorothy Parker collected most of her verse in three compilations from 1926-31, but some of her most entertaining and heartbreaking work was unknown to the general public until 1996, when Stuart Y. Silverstein collected 121 of Mrs. Parker's "lost" poems and free verses in Not Much Fun. Now Mr. Silverstein has added several previously un-collected items, and has expanded his critically acclaimed introduction, in this revised and updated edition ofNot Much Fun." "The heretofore "lost" poem reproduced here was likely typed by Dorothy Parker herself - note the four typographical errors - after her affair with the philandering reporter Charles MacArthur. The original typescript is preserved in the archives of the Special Collections of the Fales Library of New York University." --Book Jacket.

Download or read book Look written by James H. Gilmore and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mastering the Way You See the World Inspired by Edward de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats method, Jim Gilmore has created a unique and useful tool to help our ability to perceive. In his latest book, Look: A Practical Guide for Improving Your Observational Skills, Gilmore introduces the metaphor of “six looking glasses.” Each looking glass represents a particular skill to master in order to enhance the way we look at the world. The six skills include binoculars, bifocals, magnifying glass, microscope, rose-colored glasses, and blindfold looking. Each looking glass provides an observational lens through which to see the world differently. This framework will help its users to: • See the big picture • Overcome personal bias • Pinpoint significance • Better scrutinize numerous details • Uncover potential opportunities • See what’s in the mind’s eye These varying perspectives offer myriad practical applications: They can help any executive, manager, or designer more richly observe customer behavior, philanthropists and policy makers more keenly identify human needs, and anyone else interested in innovative thinking to first ground their ideation in practical observation. Gilmore helps readers grasp the Six Looking Glasses by including helpful everyday examples and practice exercises throughout. Put into practice, this method of looking will help you see the world with new eyes.

Download or read book The Spirituality of Grandparenting written by Ralph Milton and published by Wood Lake Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Our spiritual vocation as grandparents is to delight in our grandchildren." So begins Ralph Milton, in this latest addition to the beautifully and lavishly illustrated Spirituality of... series. More than a celebration of grandchildren, this book is a celebration of grandparenting, and of the very real gifts it offers to both the grandchild and to the grandparent. Which is not to say that grandparenting is always easy or fun. While Milton shares lots of stories of hugs and giggles, of silly songs and tender moments, he also knows that many grandparents struggle with the challenge of long-distance grand-parenting, with the pain and tension of separation from grandchildren due to marriage break-up, and with the anxiety and distress of grandchildren who are in trouble or who are ill. But Milton doesn't dwell on these things. Rather, he returns, always, to the delight, wonder, and love, which is foremost in the experience of any grandparent; and to the inherent bond that exists between older adults and children. This remarkable book is for grandparents who are new to the role and for grandparents who have earned their degree in 'grandparentology' through long experience. It's for 'traditional' grandparents and for grandparents of adopted children; it's for surrogate grandparents and even for grandparents-in-waiting.

Book excerpt: The inspiration for Chloé Zhao's 2020 Golden Lion award-winning film starring Frances McDormand. "People who thought the 2008 financial collapse was over a long time ago need to meet the people Jessica Bruder got to know in this scorching, beautifully written, vivid, disturbing (and occasionally wryly funny) book." —Rebecca Solnit From the beet fields of North Dakota to the campgrounds of California to Amazon’s CamperForce program in Texas, employers have discovered a new, low-cost labor pool, made up largely of transient older adults. These invisible casualties of the Great Recession have taken to the road by the tens of thousands in RVs and modified vans, forming a growing community of nomads. Nomadland tells a revelatory tale of the dark underbelly of the American economy—one which foreshadows the precarious future that may await many more of us. At the same time, it celebrates the exceptional resilience and creativity of these Americans who have given up ordinary rootedness to survive, but have not given up hope.
