Download or read book Planet of Slums written by Mike Davis and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2007-09-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “profound . . . brilliant” account of the rise of the world’s slums and the failures of modern urbanization—by the world’s leading urbanist (Arundhati Roy, activist and Booker Prize–winning author) According to the United Nations, more than one billion people now live in the slums of the cities of the South. In this brilliant and ambitious book, Mike Davis explores the future of a radically unequal and explosively unstable urban world. From the sprawling barricadas of Lima to the garbage hills of Manila, urbanization has been disconnected from industrialization, and even from economic growth. Davis portrays a vast humanity warehoused in shantytowns and exiled from the formal world economy. He argues that the rise of this informal urban proletariat is a wholly unforeseen development, and asks whether the great slums, as a terrified Victorian middle class once imagined, are volcanoes waiting to erupt.

Download or read book Peregrine 7 written by Karen Greatorex Ao and published by Idol: a Tree. This book was released on 2013-12-06 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katlin Gindred na Bortheran, princess and heir to the Tayan Empire, has been brought back from the dead. The most expensive genes available were used to create her original body, and thousands of years of careful breeding, paired with a lifetime of intensive training, have made her a brilliant pilot, instructor, leader and fighter. But one battle against the ships of the Silerian Empire ended in a violent crash-landing that brought her to her demise. Katlin must put aside her humiliation and surmount her defeat if she is to resume her duties as princess and regain respect, but a message from a stranger seems to imply that her death was not quite as she had thought. In a universe torn apart by two warring empires, Katlin must decide which side is really worth fighting for, and which of her instincts to trust. Contains some graphic scenes and profanity.

Download or read book Bloc Life written by Peter Molloy and published by Random House. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was life before the fall. 1989 was a year of astonishing and rapid change: the fall of the Berlin Wall marked the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and an end to an entire way of life for millions of people behind the Iron Curtain. Bloc Life collects first hand testimony of the people who lived in East Germany, Czechoslovakia and Romania during the Cold War era, and reveals a rich tapestry of experience that goes beyond the headlines of spies and surveillance, secret police and political corruption. In fact, many of the people remember their lives under communism as 'perfectly ordinary' and even hanker for the 'security' that it offered. From political leaders, athletes and pop stars, to cooks, miners and cosmonauts, the stories collected in Bloc Life evoke the moods, preoccupations and experiences of a world that vanished almost overnight.

Download or read book An Introduction to the World of Work written by David Spurling and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to the World of Work Synopsis We have subdivided the modules into personal and business since this seems a logical approach. Educationalists suggest an inductive approach to education is the best one where we go from the experience of the students to the underlying principles and therefore we have put in the personal modules first. The objective of all the modules is both to help people within schools or colleges to be faced with realistic choices which can be answered if necessary in the classroom but also to provide material which can be used by young people working on their own. Young people need to have transferable skills and some of these can be obtained by looking at the ways in which businesses approach them. It is therefore worthwhile trying to build up a portfolio of ways in which businesses have these approaches and to see which ones are effective and why, also which ones are totally misplaced.

Download or read book Thinking through Children s Literature in the Classroom written by Agustín Reyes-Torres and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-30 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of understanding literature as a central part of children’s education. Fiction and nonfiction literary works constitute a source to open young minds and to help them understand how and why people – themselves included – live as they do, or to question through critical lenses whether they could live otherwise. By integrating philological, cultural, and pedagogical inquiries, Thinking through Children's Literature in the Classroom approaches the use of literature as a crucial factor to motivate students not only to improve their literacy skills, but also to develop their literary competence, one that prepares them to produce independent and sensible interpretations of the world. Of course, the endeavor of forming young readers and fostering their ability to think begins primarily by having well-read teachers who are enthusiastic about teaching and, secondly, by having students who are willing to learn. To encourage and sustain them through the critical turns of their own thinking processes, educators must surely display a sound pedagogic knowledge apart from deep literary expertise.
