Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

We have always associated blackness with failure, negativity, and witchcraft. We have always associated darkness with less than, disapproval, and unattractiveness. We have always associated blackness with inequality, injustice, and incrimination. However, it is in the midst of the darkness that things began to adapt and organize. It is in the middle of the night that things start to grow and develop. It is in the midst of the darkness that things ultimately reproduce as in the story of the Black Diamond.

Modern Discoveries in Neuroscience... And What They Reveal About You (Collection)

By: Dale Purves,Miriam Boleyn-Fitzgerald,Andrew Koob

3 remarkable books reveal what neuroscientists have just learned about your brain — and you! Neuroscientists have made absolutely stunning discoveries about the brain: discoveries that are intimately linked to everything from your health and happiness to the age-old debate on free will. In these three extraordinary books, leading scientists and science journalists illuminate these discoveries, helping you understand what they may mean — and what may come next. In Brains: How They Seem to Work, Dale Purves reviews the current state of neuroscientific research, previewing a coming paradigm shift that may transform the way scientists think about brains yet again. Building on new research on visual perception, he shows why common ideas about brain networks can’t be right, uncovers the factors that determine our subjective experience, sheds new light on the so-called “ghost in the machine,” and points towards a far deeper understanding of what it means to be human. Next, in Pictures of the Mind, Miriam Boleyn-Fitzgerald uses images from the latest fMRI and PET scanners to illuminate science’s new understanding of the brain as amazingly flexible, resilient, and plastic. Through masterfully written narrative and stunning imagery, you'll watch human brains healing, growing, and adapting… gain powerful new insights into the interplay between environment and genetics… begin understanding how people can influence their own intellectual abilities and emotional makeup… and join scientists in tantalizing discoveries about everything from coma to PTSD and Alzheimer’s. Finally, in The Root of Thought, Andrew Koob shows why glial cells — once thought to be merely “brain glue” — may actually hold the key to understanding intelligence, treating psychiatric disorders and brain injuries, and perhaps even curing Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. You'll learn how these crucial cells grow and develop... why almost all brain tumors are comprised of them… and even their apparent role in your every thought and dream! From world-renowned scientists and science journalists, including Dale Purves, Miriam Boleyn-Fitzgerald, and Andrew Koob

Sporting Justice

The Chatham Coloured All-Stars and Black Baseball in Southwestern Ontario, 1915–1958

By: Miriam Wright

Although many know about Jackie Robinson’s experiences breaking major league baseball’s colour barrier in 1947, few are familiar with the Chatham Coloured All-Stars, a Black Canadian team from 1930s Ontario who broke racial barriers in baseball even earlier. In 1933, the All-Stars began playing in the primarily white world of organized amateur baseball. The following year, the All-Stars became the first Black team to win a provincial championship. Sporting Justice begins with a look at a vibrant Black baseball network in southwestern Ontario and Michigan in the 1920s, which fostered the emergence of the Chatham Coloured All-Stars in the 1930s. It follows the All-Stars’ eight years as a team (1933-1940) as they navigated the primarily white world of amateur baseball, including their increasing resistance to racism and unfair treatment. After the team disbanded, Chatham Coloured All-Stars players in the community helped to racially integrate local baseball and supported new Black teams in the 1940s and 1950s. While exploring the history of Black baseball in one southwestern Ontario community, this book also provides insights into larger themes in Canadian Black history and sport history including gender, class, social justice, and memory and remembrance.

Broken-But Not Destroyed

By: S. Miriam Clifford

The Author had entered into this life by rape of a woman without being asked to be born, without having made any effort to get here. A newborn does not know she is alive. There is no realization factor; for the infant is, as if it was, unconscious. An irresistible instinct impels her as she becomes a woman; her life takes a deep plunge felt by the indifferent blows of tragedy, such as dying at a young age, starvation, physical and emotional abuse, financial ruin, automobile accident, divorce and homelessness and the list goes through many situations. Each predicament centers on the story of someone who came into her life. ¬ e fabric of our lives is the sum total of all our experiences. ¬ Thinking back to what shaped the Author, provides a revealing perspective. She did not write these thoughts from a palace. Miriam wrote them while she was going through the roughest times in her life; in journals, on napkins, and on cardboard, on the streets of emptiness. An Atheist meets her Maker - Jesus - again, this time in the dark alley in New York City. ¬ The journey of forgiveness, redemption, healing and restoration provides powerful insight why each person is obliged, in spite of self to investigate on their journey that the human thought is related to the principle reason that nothing is without cause. ¬ ere one discovers that their life is mapped out for a purpose, an assignment, leading into destiny. Her life changes 360 degree as she starts reflecting on her life which propels her into a voyage of the true-self discovery, finding and then knowing the source of life is God. Life is not about finding yourself; it is about discovering who God created you to be.

The First Portuguese Republic

Between Liberalism and Democracy (1910-1926)

By: Miriam Pereira

The first Portuguese Republic stood between 1910 and 1926. A characteristic of the Republican period was the strong civil participation, particularly by the urban population. Freedom of press and of association became constitutional rights and incentivized a powerful and very diversified associative movement in which trade unions and friendly societies stood out in the political spectrum as they promoted popular education and culture. The time-span studied is characterized by Portugals colonial expansion in Africa, an important factor in Portugals involvement in the Great War. As changes in education, in the concept and structure of family and in the status of women linked with the new politics, so emerged a different relationship between State and Church, new avenues for the development of economic activity, an increased focus on better labour conditions, and emigration to Brazil. Miriam Halpern Pereira provides a clear overview of the Republics many achievements and the internal political and wider international limitations resulting in its downfall. The political, social and cultural causes of the military overthrow of the first Portuguese Republic are analyzed against the backdrop of the concomitant rise of fascist regimes in other European countries in the years preceding the 1929 Depression. The work provides a much needed updated synthesis of the myriad circumstances of the period, and is intended for both the general public and students of modern Europe. In a clear and concise style Between Liberalism and Democracy sheds new light on a controversial epoch of Portuguese history.

Transnational Actors in War and Peace

Transnational Actors in War and Peace

Militants, Activists, and Corporations in World Politics

By: David Malet,Miriam J. Anderson

Transnational Actors in War and Peace explores the identities, organization, strategies, and influence of transnational actors involved in contentious politics, armed conflict, and peacemaking over the last one hundred years. While the study of transnational politics has been a rapidly growing field, to date, the disparate array of actors have not been analyzed alongside each other, making it difficult to develop a common theoretical framework or determine their relative influence on international stability, war, and peace. This work seeks to fill this gap by bringing together a diverse set of scholars focused on a range of transnational actors, such as: pirates, foreign fighters, terrorists, private military security companies, criminal networks, religious groups, diasporas, political exiles, NGOs, environmental activists, global news agencies, and feminist advocacy networks. Each chapter examines a different transnational actor and is structured around five components: how the actor is organized; how it interacts with other actors; how it communicates both internally and externally; how it influences conflict/peace; and how it reflects developments in transnationalism.

Power and Politeness in Action

Power and Politeness in Action

Disagreements in Oral Communication

By: Miriam A. Locher

This study investigates the interface of power and politeness in the realization of disagreements in naturalistic language data. Power and politeness are important phenomena in face-to-face interaction. Disagreement is an arena in which these two key concepts are likely to be observed together: both disagreement and the exercise of power entail a conflict, and, at the same time, conflict will often be softened by the display of politeness (defined as marked relational work). The concept of power is of special interest to the field of linguistics in that language is one of the primary means to exercise power. Often correlated with status and regarded as an influential aspect of situated speech, the workings of the exercise of power, however, have rarely been formally articulated. This study provides a theoretical framework within which to analyze the observed instances of disagreement and their co-occurrence with the exercise of power and display of politeness. In this framework, a checklist of propositions that allow us to operationalize the concept of power and identify its exercise in naturalistic linguistic data is combined with a view of language as socially constructed. A qualitative approach is used to analyze the concepts of power and politeness. The material for analysis comes from three different contexts: (1) a sociable argument in an informal, supportive and interactive family setting, (2) a business meeting among colleagues within a research institution, and (3) examples from public discourse collected during the US Election 2000.

By: Miriam Parker

A charming and redemptive novel about unexpected second chances, following a publicist who, after the sudden implosion of her career, takes a job as a dorm mom at a Sonoma boarding school that happens to be her alma mater Gillian thought she had everything she ever wanted—as a successful publicist running her own Manhattan firm and working with a high-profile-celebrity clientele, she finally made herself at home among the elite who eluded her throughout her youth. That is, until her career implodes, leaving her jobless, friendless, and with a googleable reputation that follows her everywhere. So, when she receives an offer to become a “dorm mom” at Glen Ellen Academy, the prestigious Sonoma boarding school she attended two decades earlier on scholarship, she leaps at the opportunity for a change of scene—at least until she can figure out how to rehabilitate her career. But Gillian is surprised to find herself enjoying her new life: her role as a mentor is unexpectedly fulfilling, she finds a community, and most surprisingly of all she runs into an old flame from her own time at school, who is just as dashing now as he was then. However, just as she begins to feel comfortable, a scandal surfaces on campus that threatens to derail everything, and Gillian must figure out how to save her job, her students, her friends, and her new romance before it’s too late.

Streamlined ID

A Practical Guide to Instructional Design

By: Miriam B. Larson,Barbara B. Lockee

Streamlined ID presents a focused and generalizable approach to instructional design and development – one that addresses the needs of ID novices as well as practitioners in a variety of career environments. Highlighting essentials and big ideas, this guide advocates a streamlined approach to instructional design: producing instruction that is sustainable, optimized, appropriately redundant, and targeted at continuous improvement. The book’s enhanced version of the classic ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) emphasizes the iterative nature of design and the role of evaluation throughout the design/development process. It clearly lays out a systematic approach that emphasizes the use of research-based theories, while acknowledging the need to customize the process to accommodate a variety of pedagogical approaches. This thoroughly revised second edition reflects recent advances and changes in the field, adds three new chapters, updates reference charts, job aids, and tips to support practitioners working in a variety of career environments, and speaks more clearly than ever to ID novices and graduate students.

The Drug Trial

Nancy Olivieri and the Scandal that Rocked the Hospital for Sick Children

By: Miriam Shuchman

Winner of the Writers' Trust of Canada's Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing and the Canadian Science Writers' Association's Science in Society Book Award. Poison-pen letters, possible medical misconduct and a swirl of competing accusations that led to two inquiries – the Olivieri affair ended careers and shook the international research establishment. A riveting anatomy of Canada’s most controversial drug trial, by the medical journalist who helped break the story. In August 1998, a medical scandal erupted in the national and international media whose consequences still reverberate. A charismatic young doctor named Nancy Olivieri, working with young people who suffered from a rare blood disorder, stated that she had discovered serious problems with an experimental drug manufactured by Canada’s largest drug company, Apotex. Though her research contract required her to remain silent, she decided she had no choice but to warn the patients enrolled in her trials. Apotex retaliated by cancelling her research and slamming her reputation. In the aftermath, Olivieri became a whistleblower applauded in academia and the media for standing up to powerful corporate interests. The Olivieri affair spawned two inquiries and multiple lawsuits, but the full story of Canada’s biggest science scandal has never been told – until now. In the hands of psychiatrist and medical journalist Miriam Shuchman, the debacle over the pill called L1 is revealed as a modern morality play in which every crack in the system of scientific research, corporate financing and peer review stands out in stark relief. By talking with the people whom both Olivieri and Apotex wanted to heal – the young men and women struggling to have normal lives despite debilitating treatment – Shuchman also brings us the moving story of the toll on patients’ health when battles break out among the physicians and researchers aiming to heal them.

Webs of Beauty

By: Miriam Myers

Patterns are found in many places in our world, from the back of a zebra to a rainbow in the sky. This script shows students the intricate patterns of a spiderweb and how patterns are often found everywhere in nature. The mathematical connection is understanding that patterns are a repetition of colors or objects, and that they can be created by putting shapes or colors together. This script is based on The Spider Weaver: A Legend of Kente Cloth by Julia Carnes.

Reflective Writing in Medical Practice

A Linguistic Perspective

By: Miriam A. Locher

This book reports the results of a linguistic analysis of reflective written texts, produced during medical education or practice. It explores the topics and communication skills the authors write about, how the narratives develop, how these texts are shaped, what genres influence their composition, how relational work surfaces in them and how the writers linguistically create their identities as experts or novices. It is clear that both experienced and trainee medics grapple with the place of emotions in their communicative acts, and with the idea of what it means to be a doctor. The book makes a valuable contribution to genre analysis, interpersonal pragmatics and the study of linguistic identity construction, and will be essential reading for those involved in teaching doctor–patient communication skills.

Out Of The Broom Closet

Living An Enchanted Life As A Spiritual Christian

By: Miriam Dawn Handfield

Out of the Broom Closet is a thought-provoking, engaging exploration of life as a “witchy” Christian. Packed full of scripture references, easy-to-follow suggestions for celebrating the Wheel of the Year and moon phases, and practical instructions for using the magickal gifts of the Holy Spirit, it’s sure to enlighten and inspire even the most skeptical of readers. Miriam grew up in several Protestant churches, but she always felt different or out of place. Drawn to what many consider “occult” practices, she knew there was something more for her spiritually. At the same time, she struggled with the disconnect between what she read in the Bible and what she heard taught by various Christian preachers and teachers. Inspired by her own dad to study the Word of God herself and pray about it, she entered a healing, fulfilling relationship with the Holy Trinity, nature, and her own convictions. Miriam knows that she’s not alone, and she prays that her story will encourage others to let their light shine and follow the path God is leading them down without guilt or fear. A book that could change your life, Out of the Broom Closet breaks down stereotypes and barriers and provides a pure, open look at the joy of serving Jesus as a “Christian Witch”. It will affirm and inspire those who experience their Christian life outside the prescribed confines of the church, and it will challenge their fellow believers to consider a broader understanding of spirituality.
