Deftly blending anecdote and analysis, Jim Slater gives valuable selective criteria for buying dynamic growth shares, turnarounds, cyclicals, shells and leading shares. He also covers many other vitally relevant aspects of investment such as creative accounting, portfolio management, overseas markets and the investor's relationship with his or her broker.

  • Author : Charlotte Perkins Gilman
  • Publisher : Graphic Arts Books
  • Release : 2021-01-05
  • ISBN : 151327483X
  • Pages : 157 pages

Download or read book The Home written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Home: Its Work and Influence (1903) is a sociological study by American author and feminist Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Inspired by her work as a social reformer and advocate for women’s suffrage, Gilman sought to write a work of nonfiction that explained the role of the home as a human institution, as well as to address the problems and inequities of home life—especially for women. In the beginning, Gilman argues that “[e]very human being should have a home.” The role of the home in human society, she claims, is not only to provide safety and comfort, but to facilitate the productivity, creativity, and individuality of every person. Despite this, the home has evolved far slower than all other human institutions, ensuring that the life of humanity has failed to progress as far as its ideals would suggest. Having identified this problem—as well as shown that women bear responsibility for maintaining households while men control the home as a system of power—Gilman moves through such topics as domesticity, cooking, entertainment, and children in order to properly identify the highly gendered roles of each member of the home. Ultimately, Gilman argues that a progressive home will benefit not only each individual within the family unit, but the whole of society at large. The Home: Its Work and Influence is a powerful work of sociological thought by a leading reformer and feminist of her day. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Charlotte Perkins Gilman’s The Home: Its Work and Influence is a classic of American literature and nonfiction reimagined for modern readers.

Book The Eight Zulu Kings

  • Author : John Laband
  • Publisher : Jonathan Ball Publishers
  • Release : 2018-08-17
  • ISBN : 1868428397
  • Pages : 518 pages

Download or read book The Eight Zulu Kings written by John Laband and published by Jonathan Ball Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-17 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Eight Zulu Kings, well-respected and widely published historian John Laband examines the reigns of the eight Zulu kings from 1816 to the present. Starting with King Shaka, the renowned founder of the Zulu kingdom, he charts the lives of the kings Dingane, Mpande, Cetshwayo, Dinuzulu, Solomon and Cyprian, to today's King Goodwill Zwelithini whose role is little more than ceremonial. In the course of this investigation Laband places the Zulu monarchy in the context of African kingship and tracks and analyses the trajectory of the Zulu kings from independent and powerful pre-colonial African rulers to largely powerless traditionalist figures in post-apartheid South Africa.

Book The home  its work and influence

Download or read book The home its work and influence written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-22 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charlotte Perkins Gilman's 'The home: its work and influence' is a poignant and insightful analysis of the role of women in the domestic sphere during the late 19th century. Through a blend of personal anecdotes, sociological observations, and forward-thinking ideals, Gilman challenges traditional notions of a woman's place in the home and society. Her writing style is clear, concise, and persuasive, making a compelling case for the need to redefine the perceived limitations of women's domestic work. Set against the backdrop of the women's rights movement and the turn of the century, Gilman's book remains a landmark text in feminist literature. Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a leading feminist and social reformer of her time, drew inspiration from her own experiences of postpartum depression and struggles within a traditional marriage to write 'The home: its work and influence.' Her unique perspective as a woman in a male-dominated society fueled her passion for advocating for women's autonomy and equality. Gilman's progressive views continue to influence feminist discourse today. I highly recommend 'The home: its work and influence' to readers interested in feminist literature, social history, and gender studies. Gilman's groundbreaking work sheds light on the complexities of gender roles and the importance of redefining domestic labor, making it a must-read for those seeking a deeper understanding of women's struggles for societal recognition and empowerment.

Book Popular Memories

Download or read book Popular Memories written by Ekaterina V. Haskins and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical exploration of the ways public participation has transformed commemoration and civic engagement in the United States In the last three decades ordinary Americans launched numerous grassroots commemorations and official historical institutions became more open to popular participation. In this first book-length study of participatory memory practices, Ekaterina V. Haskins critically examines this trend by asking how and with what consequences participatory forms of commemoration have reshaped the rhetoric of democratic citizenship. Approaching commemorations as both representations of civic identity and politically consequential sites of stranger interaction, Popular Memories investigates four distinct examples of participatory commemoration: the United States Postal Service's "Celebrate the Century" stamp and education program, the September 11 Digital Archive, the first post-Katrina Carnival in New Orleans, and a traveling memorial to the human cost of the Iraq War. Despite differences in sponsorship, genre, historical scope, and political purpose, all of these commemorations relied on voluntary participation of ordinary citizens in selecting, producing, or performing interpretations of distant or recent historical events. These collectively produced interpretations—or popular memories—in turn prompted interactions between people, inviting them to celebrate, to mourn, or to bear witness. The book's comparison of the four case studies suggests that popular memories make for stronger or weaker sites of civic engagement depending on whether or not they allow for public affirmation of the individual citizen's contribution and for experiencing alternative identities and perspectives. By systematically accounting for grassroots memory practices, consumerism, tourism, and rituals of popular identity, Haskins's study enriches our understanding of contemporary memory culture and citizenship.
