Download or read book Truth About Masks written by Judy Mikovits and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do we really need to wear masks? From the New York Times Bestselling authors of Plague of Corruption comes the must-read guide on masks and re-opening following the COVID-19 pandemic. The Truth About Masks is the book all America needs to be reading as the COVID-19 pandemic rages on. Written by New York Times bestselling authors Dr. Judy Mikovits and Kent Heckenlively, this book reviews the evidence for and against widespread public masking as provided by the Centers for Disease Control and the Mayo Clinic, as well as top scientific publications such as the New England Journal of Medicine and The Lancet. This debate needs to take place without fear and paranoia. Important questions raised in this book are the effect of masks on oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, how COVID-19 spreads, the effectiveness of various types of masks, those who are most vulnerable to COVID-19, and what measures should be taken by schools as children continue to return to in-person classes. The authors' previous book, Plague of Corruption, was the runaway science bestseller of 2020, and the authors bring that same passion and attention to detail to the mask question. As politicians and bureaucrats of all stripes are weighing in on this question, with some again placing their cities and states under mandatory masking provisions, we need to understand the science behind their decisions. Are such measures a reasonable response to current circumstances, or is it a dramatic overreach, which in many cases might make the situation even worse? America desperately needs this public conversation to take place with the best science we have available. As Americans have always done during difficult times, we must summon the courage to have these challenging conversations.
Download or read book Playing the Mask written by John Wright and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a wonderfully accessible introduction to a fresh and innovative acting technique for actors, theatre-makers and teachers to use in training and rehearsal. A mask releases the actor to be playful, and playfulness generates ideas, finds meaning, develops characterisation - and is infinitely more fun than traditional training.Rather than a dry guide to making masked theatre, it is about, for instance, playing Lady Macbeth in Red Nose, or Hamlet in the mask of The Victim, The Ogre or The Fool, or even Romeo and Juliet in grotesque half-masks... All in the name of liberating your creativity and, ultimately, improving your performance.Extensively illustrated with a rich variety of masks, this inventive and pragmatic book is full of invaluable games and exercises drawn from the author's own workshops, his experience as co-founder of both Trestle and Told by an Idiot, and his pioneering mask and clown work in many professional productions.
Download or read book The Mask written by Thomas B. Pryor and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mask: A Primer on the Myth of Reality" analyzes, explains and illustrates that what we refer to as "the world" is not independent of our perceptual apparatus, but is rather an abstraction: a collectively shared, individually refined conceptual "mask" that we ourselves impose on the dynamic flow of human sensory experience to render it comprehensible and, to a limited degree, manageable. The Mask is 280 pages long, it references great literature ranging from Moby Dick (the book derives its name from an Ahab quote: "All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. . . . If a man will strike, strike through the mask."), Don Quixote, Albert Einstein, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, and numerous similar sources to illustrate how human organisms, individually and collectively, impose conceptually posited Form on the Chaos of human perceptions to make our experience meaningful. The implications concerning Space and Time, "Being," Phenomena, Relativity, Intellect, Truth, Religion, God, Self, Determinism, Free Will, and the Biblically inspired concepts of Salvation and God's "Kingdom" are analyzed in the context of this insight. The author, Thomas B. Pryor, is an 83 year-old retired lawyer whose undergraduate major was in Psychology and who has an MA in History in addition to his law degree. See also the author's short (30 page) book entitled "The Incredible Substance of Being" addressing the same subject in a fictional framework.

But gender fluid Sal wants nothing more than to escape the drudgery of life as a highway robber and get closer to the upper-class—and the nobles who destroyed their home. When Sal steals a flyer for an audition to become a member of The Left Hand—the Queen's personal assassins, named after the rings she wears—Sal jumps at the chance to infiltrate the court and get revenge. But the audition is a fight to the death filled with clever circus acrobats, lethal apothecaries, and vicious ex-soldiers. A childhood as a common criminal hardly prepared Sal for the trials.

Download or read book The Mask A Periodical Performance by Edward Gordon Craig written by Olga Taxidou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No study of modern theater is complete without a thorough understanding of the enormous influence of visionary genius Edward Gordon Craig. Born in England in 1872, Craig went on to become famous world-wide as an actor, manager, director, playwright, designer, and most importantly an author and theorist, whose books were translated into German, Russian, Japanese, Dutch, Hungarian, and Danish. Although an essential parallel to the European avant-garde, Craig was often read as "exceptional" and highly innovative in his native Britain, thus, The Mask not only appears as Craig's main cosmopolitan project but also at times functions as a surrogate stage for his experiments in theater practice. The book has a comprehensive chronology, extensive notes and a bibliography making it an essential text for undergraduates, postgraduates, actors, theatre professionals, designers, directors, researchers and writers in the fields of theatre studies (especially theater set and lighting) and theater history.

Download or read book Transforming Your Reality written by Michelle Boone-Thornton and published by Transforming Your Reality. This book was released on 2023-11-24 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Michelle Boone-Thornton has worked alongside domestic and international leaders. She is an award-winning international speaker, author, and humanitarian. Dr. Boone-Thornton infuses both her personal and professional experiences in the fields of mental health and higher education to help readers understand how physically and emotionally debilitating it is to mask emotions. Consider the following... What are you covering up? Now, before you say...nothing, think about it. Do you let people see your real, full, authentic self? Or do you find yourself only showing people what you want them to see? Why? Probably because masking emotions is something that you have been taught, modeled, or it may just be a learned behavior. This book provides a straightforward explanation on how the devastation of COVID-19 uncovered emotions that we (as a society), or you, have been masking for years. The mask, although invisible, is perceived as a layer of protection. It hides what we consider flawed, broken, damaged, and imperfect. We all have things in our past that we don't want others to see or know about. This book will help you take an in-depth analysis of what influences the masking process as well as the illusions you, or others, may portray. Emotional wellness is the goal, but the transformation must start with you!

A. Carrick. (BookPage) FORTUNE FAVORS THE BOLD. MAGIC FAVORS THE LIARS. Ren is a liar and a thief, a pattern-reader and a daughter of no clan. Raised in the slums of Nadežra, she fled that world to save her sister. Now, she has returned with one goal: to trick her way into a noble house, securing her fortune and her sister’s future. But in the city of dreams, her masquerade is just one of many. Enigmatic crime lord Derossi Vargo, stony captain of the guard Grey Serrado, dashing heir Leato Traementis, and the legendary vigilante known as the Rook all have secrets that could unravel her own.
