Download or read book The Last Lecture written by Randy Pausch and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Download or read book Wayward Son written by Rainbow Rowell and published by Wednesday Books. This book was released on 2019-09-24 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE HOTLY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL TO THE NO. 1 BESTSELLER CARRY ON Simon Snow is back and he's coming to America! The story is supposed to be over. Simon Snow did everything he was supposed to do. He beat the villain. He won the war. He even fell in love. Now comes the good part, right? Now comes the happily ever after... So why can’t Simon Snow get off the couch? What he needs, according to his best friend, is a change of scenery. He just needs to see himself in a new light. That’s how Simon and Penny and Baz end up in a vintage convertible, tearing across the American West. They find trouble, of course. (Dragons, vampires, skunk-headed things with shotguns.) And they get lost. They get so lost, they start to wonder whether they ever knew where they were headed in the first place. With Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell has written a book for everyone who ever wondered what happened to the Chosen One after he saved the day. And a book for everyone who was ever more curious about the second kiss than the first. It’s another helping of sour cherry scones with an absolutely decadent amount of butter. Come on, Simon Snow. Your hero’s journey might be over – but your life has just begun.

Download or read book The Racial Railroad written by Julia H. Lee and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Racial Railroad argues the train has been a persistent and crucial site for racial meaning-making in American culture for the past 150 years. This book examines the complex intertwining of race and railroad in literary works, films, visual media, and songs from a variety of cultural traditions in order to highlight the surprisingly central role that the railroad has played - and continues to play - in the formation and perception of racial identity and difference in the United States. Despite the fact that the train has often been an instrument of violence and exclusion, this book shows that it is also ingrained in the imaginings of racialized communities, often appearing as a sign of resistance. The significance of this book is threefold. First, it is the only book that I'm aware of that examines the train multivalently: as a technology, as a mode of transportation, as a space that blurs the line between public and private, as a form of labor, and as a sign. Second, it takes a multiracial approach to cultural narratives concerning the railroad and racial identity, which bolsters my claim about the pervasiveness of the railroad in narratives of race. It signifies across all racial groups. The meaning of that signification may be radically different depending upon the community's own history, but it nevertheless means something. Finally, The Racial Railroad reveals the importance of place in discussions of race and racism. Focusing on the experiences of racialized bodies in relation to the train - which both creates and destroys places - secures a presence for those marginalized subjects. These authors use the train to reveal how race defines the spatial logics of the nation even as their bodies are often deliberately hidden or obscured from public view"--

Download or read book Soldier s Heart A Novel written by Pamela Foster and published by Oghma Creative Media. This book was released on 2019-08-19 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeremiah Jones is a man haunted by the horrors of war. When he set off to fight in the Spring of ’61, he was but an ignorant boy seeking renown on the fields of glory. Fighting for the grays, he survives a score of battles with names like Sharpsburg, Gettysburg, and Chickamauga with nary a scratch. What he witnesses in those fights, though, leaves behind scars far deeper than any bullet or bayonet ever could. Wounded to the depths of his soul, Jeremiah returns at war’s end to the girl he left behind. But four years is an eternity, and life back home has moved on without him. His soul seeking peace, but his warrior's heart desiring only battle, Jeremiah's mind is caught between heaven and hell. Though he rides the saddle-preacher circuit, bringing the word of the Lord to all who'll listen, inside rages the killing beast that war birthed within him. The only ones he can count on are two ghosts, the first two men—but far from the last—who tried to stand against him. Tried, and failed. While he rests overnight in the tiny town of Freshwater, a desperate young girl named Adeline steals Jeremiah’s horse trying to escape a life worse than death. Realizing her motivations, he pursues, as much to rescue her as to recover his horse. It’s a decision that will change Jeremiah’s life forever. In the days to come, he faces a rash of renegade Indians, desperate homesteaders, and an offshoot of the infamous James gang intent on taking the girl for their own amusements. Pairing up with an unlikely ally, an Osage renegade named Montega, Jeremiah gives his all to keep Adeline safe. Even as he does, though, a nagging fear pulls at his heart. Will Adeline be the death of him? Or his ultimate salvation?

Download or read book JOURNEY OF THE INNOCENT written by Aida Payton and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-06-28 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My name is Aida Payton and this is my true story. Find out the true word of God inside this book based on my life experiences here in the United States of America and the Philippines. I am the person that never went to school or tutorial and yet Jesus himself taught me, the holy family, Angels and all saints. Find out Gods' or Jesus' name in more than 500 translations into different names. The reason I wrote this book is because a lot of people misinterpreted the word of God and use God's name for war. Example like for Christians and Muslims, killing each other for nothing I would say. I am going to correct this, the way God Jesus teaches me. We're supposed to treat each other like Brothers and Sisters, Uncles and Aunts, Niece and Nephews, Grand Father's and Grand Mother's. We are supposed to respect each other. We are not supposed to be fighting each other because of different religions or because we were raised differently. That is beyond God's Imaginations, so here I am, he sent me to deliver his message to all kinds of people in this world. That's why I have to write his name into different languages because we speak different languages. That's why we call God Jesus in different names. In my next Book I will write how People got deceived by bad spirit. I say this because it happened to me and because of God Almighty's Jesus Christ help, bad spirit no place in his Distractions. He can never win over me. We worship the same God in different names.
