Marketing the Bard

Shakespeare in Performance and Print, 1660-1740

By: Don-John Dugas

Dugas credits the reemergence of Shakespeare's plays and his rise to fame in the 1700s to economic factors surrounding the theater business including the acquisition and adaptation of Shakespeare's plays by the Tonson publishing firm, which marketed collector's editions of his work, spurring a price war and rousing public interest"--Provided by publisher.

Fountainhead of Jihad

The Haqqani Nexus, 1973-2012

By: Vahid Brown,Don Rassler

Drawing upon a wealth of previously unresearched primary sources in many languages, the authors shed much new light on a group frequently described as the most lethal actor in the current Afghan insurgency, and shown here to have been for decades at the centre of a nexus of transnational Islamist militancy, fostering the development of jihadi organisations from Southeast Asia to East Africa. Addressing the abundant new evidence documenting the Haqqani network's pivotal role in the birth and evolution of the global jihadi movement, the book also represents a significant advance in our knowledge of the history of al-Qaeda, fundamentally altering the picture painted by the existing literature on the subject.

The Broadview Guide to Writing: A Handbook for Students - Sixth Edition

By: Corey Frost,Karen Weingarten,Doug Babington,Don LePan,Maureen Okun

“Even the most useful reference guides are not always, well, shall we say, riveting. A refreshing exception is the new Broadview Guide to Writing, which is smart, helpful, and even fun to read.” —Gerald Graff and Cathy Birkenstein, authors of They Say / I Say: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing Key Features —A coil-bound reference text suitable for a range of introductory composition and writing courses —Divided into three sections: Writing Processes (including Research, Argumentation, and Style) Writing Mechanics (Grammar, Usage, and Punctuation) Writing Contexts (Writing in different academic disciplines, Forms and conventions, and citation) —Comprehensive treatment of citation style guides, with 2016 MLA style updates —Expanded treatment of research methods, argument structures, and writing in the workplace —A unique section on “How to Be Good With Words”—issues of gender, race, class, religion, sexual orientation, disability, etc. —Expanded coverage for those whose native language is not English —All-new chapter on reading images —Extensive companion website featuring interactive exercises Increasingly, writing handbooks are seen as over-produced and overpriced. One stands out: The Broadview Guide to Writing is published in an elegant but simple format, and sells for roughly half the price of its fancier-looking competitors. That does not change with the new edition; what does change and stay up-to-date is the content of the book. The sixth edition brings a substantial re-organization of the contents under three headings: Writing Processes, Writing Mechanics, and Writing Contexts. Coverage of APA, Chicago, and CSE styles of documentation has been substantially expanded, and the MLA section has now been fully revised to take into account all the 2016 changes. Also expanded is coverage of academic argument; of writing and critical thinking; of writing about literature, of paragraphing; of how to integrate quoted material into one’s own work; of balance and parallelism; and of issues of gender, race, religion etc. in writing. The chapter “Seeing and Meaning: Reading (and Writing About) Visual Images” is entirely new to the sixth edition.

Her Way

The Hopes and Ambitions of Hillary Rodham Clinton

By: Don Van Natta Jr.,Jeff Gerth

The truth about the most important woman in America In Her Way, two Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times investigative journalists deliver: Previously undisclosed details about the Clinton's multi-decade plan for powerincluding 8 years in the White House for Bill and 8 years for Hillary. Never-before-revealed information about Hillary's involvement in her husband's campaigns - including cover-ups and the truth about Bill's draft record. New details regarding Hillary's rivalry with Al Gore - and why it is likely to heat up. Provocative new information about Hillary's vote to authorize the Iraq War, and the steps she has taken to distance herself from that vote. Revelations about Bill Clinton's role in Hillary's campaign and his surprising opinion of Barack Obama New details of Hillary's failure to adhere to Senate ethics rules, and what this says about her political empire She is one of the most influential and recognizable figures in our country, and perhaps the single most divisive individual in our political landscape. She has been the subject of both hagiography and vitriolic smear jobs. But although dozens of books have been written about her, none of them have come close to uncovering the real Hillary -- personal, political, in all her complications. Now, as she make her historic run for the presidency, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times reporters Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr. bring us the first comprehensive and balanced portrait of the most important woman in American politics. Drawing upon myriad new sources and previously undisclosed documents, Her Way shows us how, like many women of her generation, Hillary Rodham Clinton tempered a youthful idealism with the realities of corporate America and big-league politics. It takes readers from the dorm rooms at Wellesley to the courthouses of Arkansas and Washington; to the White House and role as First Lady like none other; inside the back rooms of the Senate, where she expertly navigates the political and legislative shoals; to her $4 million mansion in Washington, where she presides over an unparalleled fundraising machine; and to her war room, from which she orchestrates ferocious attacks against her critics. Throughout her career, she has been alternately helped and hindered by her marriage to Bill Clinton. Her Way unravels the mysteries of their political partnership -- one of the most powerful and enigmatic in American history. It also explains why Hillary is such a polarizing figure. And more than any other book, it reveals what her ultimate hopes and ambitions are -- for herself and for America.

An Owner's Manual for Consciously Evolving Your Consciousness

Romancing the Absurd A Mystery Novel Based on Reinvented Reality

By: Don McCrea-Hendrick

This Owner's Manual provides you with detailed ways to Consciously Evolve Your Consciousness while addressing other important related issues: The Brain and How to Use It, The Law of Giving and Receiving, How to Meditate, How to Chant Nam Myoho Renge Kyo, Wishing People a Happy Life, The Probability of Being Born, Spiritual Philosophy, Neuroscience and Neurogenesis (how to grow new stem cells), Evolution of the Subconscious Mind. By the time you read this Owner's Manual, you will be on your way to evolving your own consciousness. Included with this Owner's Manual is the novel Romancing the Absurd, a story of redemption for two of the characters who dabble in consciously evolving their consciousness. When financial investigator Tony T. Trueblé is hired to interview key players in a major lawsuit against a venture capitalist group, his world is turned upside down as he is dragged through a seedy underworld of corruption, dishonesty, and murder. He must not only get the job done but do so without giving into his insatiable cravings for vodka, weed, and causal, meaningless sex. Sensational, satirical, and sometimes absurd, Romancing the Absurd is a literary murder mystery full of intrigue, suspense, philosophy, and absurdist cutthroat behavior. Nine people die under bizarre circumstances. A handful of people get screwed (in more ways than one). The story takes humorous and philosophical twists and turns, leaving you laughing at the murderous tactics some folks are willing to use to get ahead in this world. Throughout the story, there runs an undercurrent of reflection, hope, and redemption for Tony, who strives to right his wrongs, and Jim der Bacon, accused of murder yet able to focus on consciously evolving his own consciousness. For Tony, redemption comes through writing and his new awareness that one can consciously evolve their consciousness. Romancing the Absurd is the final result of Tony's studies, hard work, and shocking struggles with himself, others, and the universe at large. Based on real-life venture capitalists, businessmen, and lawyers, the story is structured using reinvented reality.

Robert K. Greenleaf

A Life of Servant Leadership

Robert K. Greenleaf

A Life of Servant Leadership

By: Don M. Frick

Thousands if not millions of people have heard the term “servant leadership,” introduced by Robert K. Greenleaf in his landmark essay The Servant as Leader, published in 1970. There are now Centers for Servant Leadership in ten countries and counting. His work is regularly cited by some of the most prominent business writers and leaders in the world, such as Ken Blanchard, Stephen Covey, Peter Senge, Margaret Wheatley, and Peter Block. And yet until now there has been no biography of the man who first developed this revolutionary idea. Don Frick was given unfettered access to all of Greenleaf’s papers and correspondence. The result is a fascinating book that details the sources of Greenleaf’s thought, describes his friendships with dozens of well-known people, and shows how he influenced business history well before his first book was published at the age of 73, and lived his own life as a servant leader. As Director of Management Research at AT&T for 38 years, Greenleaf was known as “AT&T’s Kept Revolutionary.” Among other unusual initiatives, he oversaw a novel program which taught executive decision making through great literature, established the first corporate assessment center using knowledge gleaned from the OSS’s approach to training civilian spies during World War II, and invited leading philosophers and theologians to have conversations with AT&T executives. After a period of soul searching and some surprising experiments in consciousness, Greenleaf retired from AT&T and began to develop the concept of servant leadership, the then-heretical notion that leaders lead best by serving their followers rather than “commanding” them. He continued to promote the idea through teaching, writing, and consulting until his last years, and was instrumental in creating a score of important organizations such as The Center for Creative Leadership and Yokefellow Institute. Always, Greenleaf was a seeker opening himself up to novel experiences and astonishing people. He was a complex person—an introvert who served in public roles, a wise person who refused to give others “The Answer,” a brilliant thinker who often declared, “I am not a scholar.” His grave carries the epitaph he wrote for himself: “Potentially a good plumber; ruined by a sophisticated education.”

What was it like to be in a Bible College music group? What was it like to travel with Ruben Ratzlaff, Dallas Meserve, Warren Bell, Jim Crain and Hal and Evelyn Martin? What was the Al Hammond Song? Where did Eileen Alder think we should sing? I'm sure you have never in your life wondered about those things, but they're answered in this book. This is a book about my experience in a Southern Gospel Quartet in my home church and at San Jose Bible College. It's about one of the most intense formative periods in my life. It's about an era, a church, a school, a style of music and how five over the top fellows learned to minister together.

Breaking and Entering

By: Don Gillmor

An Oprah Daily Best Book of 2023 • One of the Globe and Mail's Most Anticipated Titles of 2023 • Listed in CBC Books Fiction to Read in Fall 2023 • A 49th Shelf Fall Book To Put On Your List During the hottest summer on record, Bea's dangerous new hobby puts everyone's sense of security to the test. Forty-nine and sweating through the hottest summer on record, Beatrice Billings is rudderless: her marriage is stale, her son communicates solely through cryptic text messages, her mother has dementia, and she conducts endless arguments with her older sister in her head. Toronto feels like an inadequately air-conditioned museum of its former self, and the same could be said of her life. She dreams of the past, her days as a newlywed, a new mom, a new homeowner gutting the kitchen—now the only novel experience that looms is the threat of divorce. Everything changes when she googles "escape" and discovers the world of amateur lock-picking. Breaking into houses is thrilling: she’s subtle and discreet, never greedy, but as her curiosity about other people’s lives becomes a dangerous compulsion and the entire city feels a few degrees from boiling over, she realizes she must turn her guilty analysis on herself. A searingly insightful rendering of midlife among the anxieties of the early twenty-first century, Breaking and Entering is an exacting look at the fragility of all the things we take on faith.

In India and East Africa E-Indiya nase East Africa

A travelogue in isiXhosa and English

By: Davidson Don Tengo Jabavu,Tina Steiner,Mhlobo Jadezweni,Catherine Higgs,Evan M. Mwangi

A politician's journey to bring home Mahatma Gandhi's teachings home to South Africa in the wake of WWII In November 1949, Davidson Don Tengo (D.D.T.) Jabavu, the South African politician, Methodist lay preacher and retired professor of African languages and Latin at Fort Hare University in the Eastern Cape, set out on a four-month trip to attend the World Pacifist Meeting in India. The conference brought together delegates from over thirty countries to reflect on how Mahatma Gandhi’s life and teachings could inform pacifist work in the post-World War II era. Jabavu wrote an isiXhosa account of his journey up the east coast of Africa and to different parts of India which was first published in 1951 by Lovedale Press. His narrative contains wide-ranging reflections on the fauna and flora of the changing landscape, on intriguing social interactions during his travels, and on the conference itself, where he considered what lessons Gandhian principles might yield for oppressed South Africans engaged in struggles for freedom and dignity. He incorporates accounts of chance meetings with important figures of post-independence India and of the anti-colonial struggle in East Africa, as well as with members of the American civil rights movement. His commentary on non-violent resistance, and on the dangers of nationalism when coupled with militarism and racism, enriches the existing archive of intellectual and political exchange between Africa and India from a black South African perspective. This new edition includes Jabavu’s travelogue in the original isiXhosa, with an English translation by the late anthropologist Cecil Wele Manona. Tina Steiner’s introductory chapter examines the networks of international solidarity and friendship that Jabavu helped to strengthen in the course of his travels. A chapter by Mhlobo W. Jadezweni, whose updating of the original isiXhosa orthography has made Jabavu’s text accessible to new generations of readers, considers the richness of Jabavu’s isiXhosa style as a contribution to the archive of great African-language literature. Catherine Higgs provides biographical sketches of D.D.T. Jabavu and Cecil Wele Manona which situate this travelogue within the broader context of their lives. Evan M. Mwangi’s Afterword is a reflection on the historical and political significance of making African-language texts available to readers across Africa.

Mitch Rapp faces an old foe from Iran in the new thriller in Vince Flynn's #1 New York Times bestselling series, now written by bestselling author Don Bentley. In 2011, on a remote Iranian mountain, a group of high-level officials have just witnessed the successful demonstration of a new weapons system meant to upend the American-led war in Afghanistan by essentially decimating the population. The intelligence officer recognises what this development signifies even if his contemporaries do not. A fellow participant seems to agree with the intelligence officer’s reticence, remarking that he wished there was someone they could tell about this madness. But there is someone the intelligence officer can tell. One man who might just make a difference. In D.C., CIA Director Irene Kennedy presents the President with news that Bin Laden may have been found, but the President wants proof of Bin Laden's presence, and he only trusts one man to provide it. In Pakistan, Mitch Rapp encounters Azad Ashani, director of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security, the master spy who once functioned as Irene Kennedy’s back channel to the Iranian government. Ashani owes Rapp, and he intends to settle his debt by providing a piece of intelligence about an American special operations team in Afghanistan, about to interdict a high value target. However, Ashani knows the new Iranian weapons plan is a trap, and to stop it, he's willing to partner with only one man: Rapp.

By: Don Rauf

After Osama bin Laden, leader of the Islamic militant group al-Qaeda, took responsibility for the 9/11 attacks, President George W. Bush launched a battle against violent extremist organizations that threatened the security of America. His fight against terrorism sent millions of US troops into battle in Afghanistan and Iraq. This book looks at how President Bush led the War on Terror, the challenges and success of these efforts, and how his actions have shaped the world we live in today. Sidebars and quotes highlight key events, while full-color photos and straightforward, yet compelling text bring this very recent war to life for readers.

The Other Side

By: Don Lucas

Mac Lewis was a crew boat operator for a small boat rental company. On that blistering Louisiana afternoon, he was to conduct crewmembers of a large, inland oil-drilling barge to the latest drilling station. It was business as usual, and he brought his rowdy, roughneck farers to work without much ado. When night descended upon the waters, however, Mac found himself unable to sleep. After much tossing and turning to the sound of heavy drilling engines and clanging of pipes, he finally drifted into a listless sleep. However, Mac would wake up to an entirely new realm of existence. The clanging sounds and thunderous drilling were gone, to be replaced by an eerie quiet, a most unusual phenomenon in the midst of a drilling station. Not only that, but he would begin to realize that his entire body was different, too different to be his ? too different to be a man?s. With the final, unmistakable assessment to verify that his manhood was nonexistent, the unbelievable reality set in with dawning horror. Mac was now a man in a woman?s body. Who was this woman and why was he in her body? Why had it happened? Where in the world was he? The questions would come forth unrestrained and unanswered. Thus, begins the greatest adventure of Mac?s life, a surreal adventure indeed as, for the first time, he would view the world through the other side of the gender fence ? with the eyes, body, and life of a woman. As the questions drive him to seek for answers, he would find out just how it would feel to literally be in a woman?s shoes, dodging compromising situations, experiencing a much heightened danger on the streets and the ever-present emotions that course through a woman?s being. Lucas? The Other Side is absolutely riveting, a compelling read that readers will find hard to put down.

Quarterly Essay 63 Enemy Within

American Politics in the Time of Trump

By: Don Watson

In Enemy Within, Don Watson takes a memorable journey into the heart of the United States in the year 2016 – and the strangest election campaign that country has seen. Travelling in the Midwest, Watson reflects on the rise of Donald Trump and the “thicket of unreality” that is the American media. Behind this he finds a deeply fearful and divided culture. Watson considers the irresistible pull – for Americans – of the Dream of exceptionalism, and asks whether this creed is reaching its limit. He explores alternate futures – from Trump-style fascism to Sanders-style civic renewal – and suggests that a Clinton presidency might see a new American blend of progressivism and militarism. Enemy Within is an eloquent, barbed look at the state of the union and the American malaise. “If, as seems likely, Clinton wins, it will not be out of love, or even hope, but rather out of fear. She can win by simply letting her deplorable opponent lose. On the other hand, she’s nothing if not adaptable, and she could yet see the chance to lead the nation’s social and economic regeneration ... Call it a New Great Awakening or a New New Deal; it would owe something to both, and to Bernie Sanders as well, but also to her need to be more than the first woman president.” —Don Watson, Enemy Within ‘Must read...[Don Watson] is the ideal person to survey Trump’s America’ —The Weekend Australian ‘A fascinating journey through the United States...’ —ABC Brisbane, Weekend Bookworm

States of Confusion

How Our Voter ID Laws Fail Democracy and What to Do About It

By: Don Waisanen,Sonia R. Jarvis,Nicole A. Gordon

Shows the maddening difficulties that voter ID requirements create for participants in US democracy and offers concrete solutions for every person’s vote and voice to count Over the past decade, and throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of voter ID laws has skyrocketed, limiting the ability of nearly twenty-five million eligible voters from exercising their constitutional right to cast a vote. In States of Confusion, Don Waisanen, Sonia Jarvis, and Nicole Gordon explore this crisis and the difficulties it has created for American voters, offering practical solutions for this increasingly important problem. Focusing on ten states with the strictest voter documentation requirements, the authors show how people face major barriers to exercising their fundamental democratic right to vote and are therefore slipping through the cracks of our electoral system. They explore voter experiences by drawing on hundreds of online surveys, audits of 150 election offices, community focus groups, and more. Waisanen, Jarvis, and Gordon call on policymakers to adopt uniform national voter identification standards that are simple, accessible, and cost-free. States of Confusion offers a comprehensive and up-to-date look at the voter ID crisis in our country, as well solutions for practitioners, government agencies, and citizens.
