Book excerpt: As we travel throughout our journey of living life we may already be a believer that God and His power is real yet still struggle at times deliberately developing a more personal and intimate relationship with God that we begin to realize that the scripture in Psalms 34, that many are the afflictions of the righteous, is quite true and as a result, we may also begin to realize what more it is that we may need to learn or do that will better prepare as well as equip us for our journey yet ahead no matter the terrain or storms that may come our way! In book 3 of the 4-part book series, the focus is on ensuring that we as believers realize that just as we prepare for a new season or a change in weather conditions in the natural, so should we in the spiritual by ensuring that we have indeed put on the whole armor of God so that we truly are able to weather the storm while continuing to trust God as our true GPS believing that not only will He GUIDE as well as PROVIDE, but He also will be our SHIELD during our times of uncertainty, unchartered territory and the unknown.
Download or read book Wayfinding written by M. R. O'Connor and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At once far flung and intimate, a fascinating look at how finding our way make us human. In this compelling narrative, O'Connor seeks out neuroscientists, anthropologists and master navigators to understand how navigation ultimately gave us our humanity. Biologists have been trying to solve the mystery of how organisms have the ability to migrate and orient with such precision—especially since our own adventurous ancestors spread across the world without maps or instruments. O'Connor goes to the Arctic, the Australian bush and the South Pacific to talk to masters of their environment who seek to preserve their traditions at a time when anyone can use a GPS to navigate. O’Connor explores the neurological basis of spatial orientation within the hippocampus. Without it, people inhabit a dream state, becoming amnesiacs incapable of finding their way, recalling the past, or imagining the future. Studies have shown that the more we exercise our cognitive mapping skills, the greater the grey matter and health of our hippocampus. O'Connor talks to scientists studying how atrophy in the hippocampus is associated with afflictions such as impaired memory, dementia, Alzheimer’s Disease, depression and PTSD. Wayfinding is a captivating book that charts how our species' profound capacity for exploration, memory and storytelling results in topophilia, the love of place. "O'Connor talked to just the right people in just the right places, and her narrative is a marvel of storytelling on its own merits, erudite but lightly worn. There are many reasons why people should make efforts to improve their geographical literacy, and O'Connor hits on many in this excellent book—devouring it makes for a good start." —Kirkus Reviews

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed as a masterpiece of American travel writing, Blue Highways is an unforgettable journey along our nation's backroads. William Least Heat-Moon set out with little more than the need to put home behind him and a sense of curiosity about "those little towns that get on the map -- if they get on at all -- only because some cartographer has a blank space to fill: Remote, Oregon; Simplicity, Virginia; New Freedom, Pennsylvania; New Hope, Tennessee; Why, Arizona; Whynot, Mississippi." His adventures, his discoveries, and his recollections of the extraordinary people he encountered along the way amount to a revelation of the true American experience.

Download or read book Cartographies of Travel and Navigation written by James R. Akerman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finding one’s way with a map is a relatively recent phenomenon. In premodern times, maps were used, if at all, mainly for planning journeys in advance, not for guiding travelers on the road. With the exception of navigational sea charts, the use of maps by travelers only became common in the modern era; indeed, in the last two hundred years, maps have become the most ubiquitous and familiar genre of modern cartography. Examining the historical relationship between travelers, navigation, and maps, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation considers the cartographic response to the new modalities of modern travel brought about by technological and institutional developments in the twentieth century. Highlighting the ways in which the travelers, operators, and planners of modern transportation systems value maps as both navigation tools and as representatives of a radical new mobility, this collection brings the cartography of travel—by road, sea, rail, and air—to the forefront, placing maps at the center of the history of travel and movement. Richly and colorfully illustrated, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation ably fills the void in historical literature on transportation mapping.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New perspectives on digital scholarship that speak to today's computational realities Scholars across the humanities, social sciences, and information sciences are grappling with how best to study virtual environments, use computational tools in their research, and engage audiences with their results. Classic work in science and technology studies (STS) has played a central role in how these fields analyze digital technologies, but many of its key examples do not speak to today’s computational realities. This groundbreaking collection brings together a world-class group of contributors to refresh the canon for contemporary digital scholarship. In twenty-five pioneering and incisive essays, this unique digital field guide offers innovative new approaches to digital scholarship, the design of digital tools and objects, and the deployment of critically grounded technologies for analysis and discovery. Contributors cover a broad range of topics, including software development, hackathons, digitized objects, diversity in the tech sector, and distributed scientific collaborations. They discuss methodological considerations of social networks and data analysis, design projects that can translate STS concepts into durable scientific work, and much more. Featuring a concise introduction by Janet Vertesi and David Ribes and accompanied by an interactive microsite, this book provides new perspectives on digital scholarship that will shape the agenda for tomorrow’s generation of STS researchers and practitioners.

Download or read book From Iron Butt to Melted Heart written by Marshall Madill and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inspired by a newspaper article, Marshall Madill had dreamed of riding a motorcycle to Alaska since the days of his youth. However, this dream consisted of a leisurely ride by day, taking in all the sites, and sleeping under the stars by night. In his mind, Marshall had always budgeted an entire month for this trip. And while Marshall and his wife Jan are avid motorcycle enthusiasts, he really never envisioned himself as an "Iron Butt" motorcyclist. An "Iron Butt" in the motorcycle world is someone who rides their motorcycle one thousand miles in a single twenty-four hour period. Marshall and Jan felt they were really being aggressive when they rode four hundred miles in a day. The one time they did seven hundred miles in a day, neither could hardly walk or sit down either one. They were in quite a predicament. Marshall had absolutely no desire nor intent to even attempt to ride his motorcycle one thousand miles in a day. Then one day, he discovered a handful of fellow motorcycle enthusiasts that he knew were avid "Iron Butt" participants. Being competitive by nature, his attitude about "Iron Butt" riding began to temper. Soon he was hearing about an "Iron Butt" event called "48 States Plus Alaska In 10 Days or Less". When Marshall heard it involved Alaska, his interest was immediately peaked. He spent the next fifteen months planning and preparing for this "Iron Butt" ride. He prepared physically. He prepared mentally. He studied and memorized the maps of the route, which would take him to every one of the 48 Contiguous United States of America and then on to Alaska. This route would cover over 8,600 miles in less than 10-days. Marshall would definitely need to be an "Iron Butt" in order to accomplish this goal. This is the story of how Marshall planned and prepared for the ride. It is the story of the life lessons Marshall learned throughout the planning, preparation, the ride itself, and even since the official trip was completed. It is the story of how God invited Himself along for the journey and it's the story of how Marshall was transformed from an "Iron Butt" to a "Melted Heart" by the special individuals that he encountered all along the journey. Come along Marshall relives and shares with you this adventure of a lifetime that changed his life forever.
