Download or read book The Struggle for the Streets of Berlin written by Molly Loberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who owns the street? Interwar Berliners faced this question with great hope yet devastating consequences. In Germany, the First World War and 1918 Revolution transformed the city streets into the most important media for politics and commerce. There, partisans and entrepreneurs fought for the attention of crowds with posters, illuminated advertisements, parades, traffic jams, and violence. The Nazi Party relied on how people already experienced the city to stage aggressive political theater, including the April Boycott and Kristallnacht. Observers in Germany and abroad looked to Berlin's streets to predict the future. They saw dazzling window displays that radiated optimism. They also witnessed crime waves, antisemitic rioting, and failed policing that pointed toward societal collapse. Recognizing the power of urban space, officials pursued increasingly radical policies to 'revitalize' the city, culminating in Albert Speer's plan to eradicate the heart of Berlin and build Germania.

Download or read book Struggletown written by Janet McCalman and published by Melbourne Univ. Publishing. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The old Struggletowners, if they could see it now, would not believe their eyes.’ In Struggletown, Janet McCalman takes us into the inner-city industrial working-class suburb of Richmond, in Melbourne, before the gentrification of the 1970s. This is a narrative richly informed by the voices and memories of those who lived there during this time — the Struggletowners themselves — as well as by McCalman’s familiarity with the objects, buildings and topography of their physical environment and her impressive awareness of larger social forces, structures and patterns. As urban life continues to develop in new directions and complex human and political relations suggest new futures, the difficulty and necessity of remembering, now, also lends this classic work a palpable new relevance.

Download or read book Trust the Flames written by Katie Delimon and published by Katie Delimon. This book was released on 2023-02-18 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Trust the Flames is a palate cleanser and a much-needed shot of reality. In a world of highlight reels and curated depictions of life, Katie Delimon assures us that the path to a beautiful life is often a rugged, messy, unfiltered one. Read this memoir." - Alicia Cook, best-selling poet and author of Sorry I Haven’t Texted You Back. Katie Delimon’s debut memoir takes us on an unforgettable—and deeply relatable—adventure as she unabashedly shines a spotlight on all of her humanness including her shame, trauma, recovery, and ultimately, her spiritual awakening. Woven into Delimon’s journey of self-realization and healing is a remarkable love story of a twin flame journey, which just gets more incredible with each turn of the page! (Don't worry; you’ll learn exactly what a “twin flame is” as you read on!) After experiencing life in the deep backwoods of West Virginia, the grimy brilliance of New York City, and the beautiful beaches of Australia, Delimon ultimately begins her search for serenity during a stint in South East Asia, where she’s robbed and left penniless, catapulting her desire to uncover calm out of chaos and mindfulness out of mindlessness. It’s a true story of transformation, generational trauma and parental loss; of finding solace and safety in the silence of ashrams; of love dying, but then ultimately wildly blooming in the deserts of Burning Man. Delimon is a phoenix rising from the ashes, a woman who burned through the layers of who she thought she should be, in order to find out who she truly was.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally ... Financial Therapy for your bank balance! There is a ‘collective secret’ that says, we should all have a good handle on money as we grow into adulthood. Yet we are generally never taught about managing money let alone how our individual psychology may affect our relationship with it. Money is one of the most profound relationships in our lives. Of which most of us we have not received true guidance, support and any profound understanding of how money can and will trigger our emotional landscape. The Billionaire Buddha repairs this often broken relationship and builds a sense of inner security beyond what is happening to us financially. From here we grow in trust in ourselves, to provide all that we need in our lives. The Billionaire Buddha is a step by step guide to understanding our unique relationship with money. It uncovers the hidden drives, beliefs and behaviours that make us stress about money • under manage our money • compulsively spend • makes us envious of other’s wealth • overwork or underearn • have crazy debt • stress about our mortgage • can't save or budget • gamble heavily • makes us afraid to take some financial risk • make bad investments • fixate on money and manifesting • believe our self-worth is affecting our net-worth • argue with our partner about money • fear for our retirement • believe our level of money is a definition of our value as a human being • make us feel like we are constantly striving but only surviving • beat ourselves up for not being richer and, and, and the rest! In this therapeutic book we unpack at our early upbringings (our Attachment Relationships) with money and how this has laid the foundation of how we relate to our finances. Through the Billionaire Buddha 28 Day Challenge, we analysis our specific relationship with money, deconstruct our beliefs and behaviours and ultimately build a healthy foundation, that serves both the self and our bank balance. Most ‘money books’ are Financial Education tools - providing knowledge, skills, aptitude and educational resources to take more control over our economic lives. The Billionaire Buddha is about Economic Empowerment. Improving the attitudes, behaviours, beliefs, triggers, recovery from financial trauma, resilience and psychological well being in order to take more control over our economic lives. When one feels Economically Empowered… they feel they have the capability and capacity to improve their financial well being • are better able to have control over their day-to-day, month to-month finances • they are less vulnerable to economic abuse • have more psychological capacity to absorb financial shock • they have the psychological resilience to recover from financial trauma • their belief in their ability to achieve financial self-efficacy increases • are able to model and teach their children about Economic Empowerment • are better able to focus and stay on track to meet financial goals. Plus, most ‘money book’ educational strategies work if you have the same temperament, personality, disposition risk profile or circumstances as the author. This book is designed so that you, the reader discovers what your unique money psychology is … and then get that working for you, financially. The Billionaire Buddha covers the big subjects… Money & Pain - Money & Shame - Money & Power - Money & The Saboteur Jane Monica-Jones is a Psychotherapist, Financial Therapist and Financial Counsellor.

His athleticism has taken him from inner-city Auckland, where he grew up, to the highest sporting moments in Twickenham, Eden Park and Sydney's Olympic Stadium.

Sonny Bill's love of family, his faith, his skill and performance throughout his unparalleled sporting career, his ability to unite a team under pressure, his grace in owning his mistakes, the challenges of leaving home as a young man and dealing with a negative culture and the temptations that followed, and his courage in speaking out for the vulnerable and calling out injustice are all aspects of an inspiring life story. Sonny Bill Williams was the first Muslim to play for the All Blacks. Driven by a fierce moral compass, Sonny Bill Williams thoughtfully and authentically uses his standing and platform as both a UNICEF Ambassador and an elite sportsperson to speak out on political issues that confront the world today and to benefit those struggling in life. He is a dedicated family man, devoted to his faith, committed to his teammates, respectful of his fans and aware that the path he has taken can inspire and empower others. Working with Alan Duff, award-winning author of Once Were Warriors, this will be the must-read autobiography of the year.
