Download or read book Rediscovering Fire written by Guinevere Liberty Nell and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Guinevere Liberty Nell visits this historical laboratory of social science to study the lessons in basic economics that it teaches. Nell observes that the founders of the Soviet experiment, Lenin and other Bolshevik leaders, wrote volumes of articles and books on Marxist theory and then proceeded to enact the very policies that they promised. Therefore the Soviet experiment provides an ideal lens through which to view the consequences of various interpretations of economic theories and Marxist theories. However, despite the wealth of information available on the Soviet experiment, few writers have closely analyzed this historical process and what lessons it might offer for market economies. In this book, Nell carefully considers Soviet theory and practice, and draws out the lessons that Soviet planners learned. Each chapter considers one theory; the experience in the Soviet Union of policies based on this theory, and the reforms that planners implemented as the system evolved as well as in response to changes in the local and international conditions; and the lessons for market economies that this experience offers. Nell's lessons capture the dynamic nature of the economy and illustrate insights from the debate between socialists and Austrian economists. They should be useful and informative not only for readers interested in basic economics, but also for economists interested in heterodox approaches to economic modeling and theory, as well as for the citizen interested in rethinking the assumptions underlying mainstream policy debates.
Download or read book Reading and Writing Cancer How Words Heal written by Susan Gubar and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important addition to the literature of cancer by an award-winning scholar and memoirist. Elaborating upon her “Living with Cancer” column in the New York Times, Susan Gubar helps patients, caregivers, and the specialists who seek to serve them. In a book both enlightening and practical, she describes how the activities of reading and writing can right some of cancer’s wrongs. To stimulate the writing process, she proposes specific exercises, prompts, and models. In discussions of the diary of Fanny Burney, the stories of Leo Tolstoy and Alice Munro, numerous memoirs, novels, paintings, photographs, and blogs, Gubar shows how readers can learn from art that deepens our comprehension of what it means to live or die with the disease. From a writer whose own memoir, Memoir of a Debulked Woman: Enduring Ovarian Cancer, was described by the New York Times Book Review as “moving and instructive…and incredibly brave,” this volume opens a path to healing.

Book excerpt: Unfortunately, in this day and time, we are all touched by cancer - oneself, a loved one, a friend and/or a coworker. The day I received my diagnosis, I was afraid, shocked, confused, angry, and disappointed. How did this happen? How did I get cancer? What would happen to my family? What would people remember about me? I had a lot of questions and I wasn't sure what to tell people.Being diagnosed with cancer reawakened a part of me that had been lulled to sleep by the pain of my past. I didn't like the treatment, yet I was thankful for the journey. I met a lot of great people and learned I lot along the way. Whether I lived or died, I learned to appreciate each moment of every day of my life. I began to live differently, love differently and enjoy life. How Cancer Saved My Life is about the impact cancer had on my life, emotionally, spiritually, and physically - the good and the bad, joys and sorrows. It's also about ways to care for family and friends diagnosed with cancer. As you read, I hope that you are encouraged and empowered so that when someone is diagnosed with cancer, anxiety and fear doesn't paralyze the survivor or caretaker from "living life." Prepare to laugh, cry, think deeply, and live life to the fullest. Like cancer, my story is an emotional roller coaster. This is not a book to be read from cover to cover because it's really three books in one; Part I - How cancer saved my life, Part II - My cancer journey through blogs and pictures, Part III- Caring for family and friends with cancer.Remember that everyone's journey is different. I wouldn't cancer on anyone yet I am thankful for the experience.Enjoy the journey! Chandra
