Download or read book Divided Sisters written by Midge Wilson and published by Doubleday. This book was released on 1996 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the advent of the women's movement, women have often expressed the belief that black and white women in society have a great many common concerns, and are in fact natural allies. The reality is more sobering. In Divided Sisters, Midge Wilson and Kathy Russell, the acclaimed authors of The Color Complex, tackle the nature of relationships between black and white women, and explore how they do, and don't, get along. Based on scores of interviews, cultural literature and extensive research, Divided Sisters examines relations between black and white women as children, as adults, at school and in college, at work and at home. Truthfully as adults relatively few women feel they are close friends with a woman from another racial background. The book exposes many of the challenges and obstacles that complicate interracial relationships in a society with a long history of racial inequality. What Midge and Kathy discover is that the concerns and frustrations of black and white women are often different, and that these differences are frequently not communicated. For example, women thrown together for the first time in college are often ill-prepared to handle cultural differences in dress, customs, attitudes and background. In addition, peer pressure, economic and historical inequality, real or perceived racism, and fear, play a role in dividing rather than uniting women. Divided Sisters is a landmark book that will open readers' eyes to the realities and challenges of bridging what is too frequently a cultural divide."

Download or read book Ethics its Ecdysis written by Hiral Kapasi and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2023-08-19 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is ethics subject to evolution? Has ethics chosen evolution over extinction in its course of existentialism? Does a paradigm shift in the sequence of our priorities and the immortality in the motion of time, act as a catalyst for the evolution of ethics? Does constantly judging the lack of the conventionally established ethical standards in all our present-day actions, prevent us from celebrating the presence of ethics in its best possible contemporary form today? Ethics & its Ecdysis makes you wonder if ethics as a phenomenon is subject to evolution, just like every other living being despite being abstract in nature, or not? This book attempts to answer these curious questions through a very interesting story. With business ethics as the plot and ecdysis as the theme, the author has attempted to discover the possibility of the evolution of ethics through a realistic, relatable and relevant story. Ultimately, this book leaves you with the power to decide whether you choose to accept the ecdysis of ethics and keep pace with reality OR accept the extinction of the conventionally rigid connotations of ethics and fossilize your place in the real space.
Download or read book A Possibility of Whales written by Karen Rivers and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2018-03-13 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of a girl who—thanks to her friends, her famous dad, and a chance encounter with a whale—learns the true meaning of family. Twelve-year-old Natalia Rose Baleine Gallagher loves possibilities: the possibility that she’ll see whales on the beach near her new home, that the boy she just met will be her new best friend, that the photographers chasing her actor father won’t force Nat and her dad to move again. Most of all, Nat dreams of the possibility that her faraway mother misses and loves Nat—and is waiting for Nat to find her. The thing is, Nat doesn’t even know who her mother is. She left Nat as a baby, and Nat’s dad refuses to talk about it. Nat knows she shouldn’t need a mom, but she still feels like something is missing. In this heartfelt story about family, friendship, and growing up, Nat’s questions lead her on a journey of self-discovery that will change her life forever.
Download or read book Fierce Leadership written by Susan Scott and published by Currency. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of the acclaimed book Fierce Conversations comes the antidote to some of the most wrongheaded practices of business today. · “Provide anonymous feedback.” · “Hire smart people.” · “Hold people accountable.” These are all sound, business practices, right? Not so fast, says leadership visionary and bestselling author Susan Scott. In fact, these mantras — despite being long-accepted and adopted by business leaders everywhere — are completely wrongheaded. Worse, they are costing companies billions of dollars, driving away valuable employees and profitable customers, limiting performance, and stalling careers. Yet they are so deeply ingrained in organizational cultures that no one has questioned them. Until now. In Fierce Leadership, Scott teaches us how to spot the worst “best” practices in our organizations using a technique she calls “squid eye”–the ability to see the “tells” or signs that we have fallen prey to disastrous behaviors by knowing what to look for. Only then, she says, can we apply the antidote.. Informed by over a decade of conversations with Fortune 500 executives, this book is that antidote. With fierce new approaches to everything from employee feedback to corporate diversity to customer relations, Scott offers fresh and surprising alternatives to six of the so-called “best” practices permeating today’s businesses. This refreshingly candid book is a must-read for any manager or leader at any level who is ready to take a long hard look at what trouble might be lurking in their organization - and do something about it.
Download or read book Code 3 written by Sean C. Cusack and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-05-31 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year was 1995 and three very successful private ambulance companies joined forces in a mammoth merger to thwart the impending threat of FMR (Frequent Medical Response), the U.S.A.s largest nationally based private ambulance company. Power Ambulance from Chicago, Reagan-Stiller Ambulance from Greater Chicagoland, and Baileys Ambulance from southern Illinois and Indiana combined forces to become Tri*Medic Transport Incorporated. Code 3: The Rise & Fall of a Private Ambulance Empire proves that people from all walks of life are attracted to the strange realm that is Emergency Medical Services (E.M.S.). But like average employees, many of them come and go. Like druggies, they get their quick fix and then they leave. E.M.S. sees them come and go like the motions of the ocean. But what they leave behind are their unforgettable stories. Code 3: The Rise & Fall of a Private Ambulance Empire is not your typical novel about the heroisms of what takes place in the back of an ambulance, rather, Code 3 takes you on a fast-paced lights and sirens ride through the delightful disgraces that are hidden well from the public eye. The tribulations of the mighty E.M.S. Tri*Medic are well chronicled in this in-depth partisan culture of the unique private ambulance company world. Code 3: The Rise & Fall of a Private Ambulance Empire is a dauntless expos of Nazi Germany and the Titanic Disaster, uniquely intertwined in the unforgiving E.M.S. field of battle. Code 3 is set inside a huge garage on the north side of Chicago that is a branch of the massive private ambulance company merger. It was inside this garage that most of the mayhem took place, making for an unforgettable reading experience. Like the stories and characters involved in the inception of this novel, you will never forget it.
Download or read book Outside Influences written by Adam Ginsberg and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outside Influences takes a refreshing stance on life’s journey to address the dynamic forces swirling around outside that affect the direction and ultimate meaning of people’s lives. Life’s journeys are a mosaic of experiences, encounters, interactions, and ideas. What happens on those journeys makes up the stuff of life and determines the outcome of the adventure. But most of what has been written about the journey, life, and success deals only with internal factors people can influence. In Outside Influences, serial entrepreneur Adam Ginsberg finally acknowledges and includes the myriad of outside factors that also contribute to the meaning of people’s lives. Adam shows that the elegant, complex choreography of inside and outside forces is not something to be feared, but something to be acknowledged and understood, with more than sixty catalytic concepts to stimulate thinking, stretch readers’ minds, and help people calibrate the healthy tension between where they are and where they want to be. Not just about gaining plain old success, Outside Influences guides readers to coming to peace with the contradictions so apparent in life. Readers learn to understand what is happening when the idiosyncrasies of the system manifest themselves and appreciate the bounty or cope with the challenges and, ultimately, achieve new levels of success.

Book excerpt: Why would there be a contract out on Edwin de Valu's life? Edwin -- the wiry low-level editor at Panderic Press. Why has rage disappeared from the roads and McDonald's gone alfalfa? How come everyone seems so damn happy? And most importantly, who, or what, is Tupak Soiree? When an enormous self-help manuscript lands on Edwin's desk, it's headed for the trash. Edwin's cynicism of self-help books, coupled with his filthy mood that morning, results in him dismissing Tupak Soiree's What I Learned on the Mountain and using it as a doorstop. However, Tupak's manuscript is unique -- a self-help book that actually works. Before Edwin knows it, a chain of events begins that affects not only his own life but the world at large. For those who choke on Chicken Soup for the Soul or have choice words for Dr. Phil, Will Ferguson offers up a killer dose of Happiness™ -- a masterpiece of comic fiction.
