This book will change the way you look at your home and work
environments and all spaces you occupy as you realise the power you
have to change and improve your surroundings naturally, while
working with the four elements. Nature has provided us with a
bounty of natural ways to maintain health and harmony, and in this
new release, Dawn James eloquently shows you how to raise the
frequency in your home, work space, and general surroundings using
the elements of Air, Light, Water, and Earths gifts. In this book
Dawn shows you how to improve air quality, physically and
aesthetically; be aware of beneficial and harmful lighting; work in
harmony with the sun and the moon; raise the frequency of your
water for drinking, bathing, and cleaning; and work with Earths
gifts to positively transform your life and connect to the elements
that we rely on for sustenance and well-being.
With updated information that reflects the myriad changes in the
student loan industry that affect students and their parents
burdened with student loan debt, "CliffsNotes Graduation Debt,
Second Edition" provides a step-by-step road map for effectively
managing student loan debt and having a successful financial life.
Reyna Gobel has accumulated tens of thousands of dollars in
student loans, recovered from student loan default, and set herself
on a mission to help others who face a seemingly insurmountable
student loan burden, with a powerful message about taking a
step-by-step approach and not being overwhelmed by the sheer weight
of student loan debt.
Divided into small subsections geared toward those neck-deep in
debt, this book is easily digestible to students who aren't
inclined to focus on their finances. Readers are encouraged to take
action steps, such as finding long-lost student loans that may have
gone into default, discovering payment plans they can afford,
consolidating loans when it makes sense to do so, saving money on
eating out and groceries, improving credit scores, tweaking their
debt-to-income ratios so they can buy a home, and discussing their
student loan and non-student loan debt with their significant
others.
By the end of the book, readers will be on the road to financial
stability, with extra money for vacations and other fun stuff,
too.
Life Space Management is a book that throws up a new concept of
enhancing individual & organisational effectiveness by managing
the parameters of Life Space, a word coined by Kurt Lewin. Our
entire effectiveness in life depends on how well we create space
with others in the environment. All of us intrinsically yet
unknowingly practice the art of creating the right space, whenever
we interact with others. Our entire relationship blooms and grows
or diminishes based on the quantum of life space we create with
them. The author has researched on this new subject and put across
his views to help the reader evolve and grow more effective in
life.
Just as a traveler crossing a continent won't sense the curvature
of the earth, one lifetime of reading can't grasp the largest
patterns organizing literary history. This is the guiding premise
behind Distant Horizons, which uses the scope of data newly
available to us through digital libraries to tackle previously
elusive questions about literature. Ted Underwood shows how digital
archives and statistical tools, rather than reducing words to
numbers (as is often feared), can deepen our understanding of
issues that have always been central to humanistic inquiry. Without
denying the usefulness of time-honored approaches like close
reading, narratology, or genre studies, Underwood argues that we
also need to read the larger arcs of literary change that have
remained hidden from us by their sheer scale. Using both close and
distant reading to trace the differentiation of genres,
transformation of gender roles, and surprising persistence of
aesthetic judgment, Underwood shows how digital methods can bring
into focus the larger landscape of literary history and add to the
beauty and complexity we value in literature.
The papers of this special issue share a common message: what is
missing is not the development of complexity theory for human
activity systems but a better understanding of complexity acting in
society.
The Global Economy that sustains the civilized world is destroying
the biosphere. As a result, civilization, like the Titanic, is on a
collision course with disaster. But changing course via the body
politic appears to be well nigh impossible, given that much of the
populace lives in denial. Why is that? And how did we get into such
a fix? In this essay, biologists James Coffman and Donald Mikulecky
argue that the reductionist model of the world developed by Western
civilization misrepresents life, undermining our ability to
regulate and adapt to the accelerating anthropogenic transformation
of the world entrained by that very model. An alternative worldview
is presented that better accounts for both the relational nature of
living systems and the developmental phenomenology that constrains
their evolution. Development of any complex system reinforces
specific dependencies while eliminating alternatives, reducing the
diversity that affords adaptive degrees of freedom: the more
developed a system is, the less potential it has to change its way
of being. Hence, in the evolution of life most species become
extinct. This perspective reveals the limits that complexity places
on knowledge and technology, bringing to light our hubristically
dysfunctional relationship with the natural world and increasingly
tenuous connection to reality. The inescapable conclusion is that,
barring a cultural metamorphosis that breaks free of deeply
entrenched mental frames that made us what we are, continued
development of the Global Economy will lead inexorably to the
collapse of civilization.
This book authoritatively authenticates the scientific accuracy of
the Bible with new discoveries. The new scientific discoveries in
this book include how the universal gravitation in all forms of
matter is due to the residual effect of the strong force beyond
sub-nuclear range. Also, this book reveals how the four fundamental
forces of nature are unified in the strong force of the gamma ray
with new scientific discoveries on the structure of matter, which
simplify the complications of the theory known as quantum chromo
dynamics. BIC Subjects and Qualifiers: Physics (PH) BISAC Subject:
