A Woman'S Journey Round The World From Vienna To Brazil, Chili, Tahiti, China, Hindostan, Persia, And Asia Minor

By: Pfeiffer Ida

A Woman's Journey Round the World" with the aid of Ida Pfeiffer is an amazing travelogue that unveils the brilliant journey of a nineteenth-century Austrian explorer. Ida Pfeiffer, a girl in advance of her time, launched into an exquisite solo journey around the globe, defying societal norms and expectations of her generation. Pfeiffer's narrative takes readers on a fascinating expedition through various continents and cultures. Her adventures spanned from the distinguished islands of the South Pacific to the rugged landscapes of South America and the faraway areas of Asia. With keen observations, she vividly defined the various human beings, customs, and environments she encountered. What makes Pfeiffer's adventure particularly noteworthy is that she defied the conventions of her time, as ladies hardly ever ventured into the challenging world of exploration and journey. Her narrative isn't handiest an account of her bodily travels but also a testomony to her braveness, curiosity, and determination. "A Woman's Journey Round the World" presents a unique attitude on the 19th-century international, offering insights into the cultural diversity, herbal wonders, and societal structures of that technology. Pfeiffer's writing is marked by using its spirit of journey and her ability to transcend the limitations of her time, making her a trailblazer for ladies tourists and explorers.

Interactive Decision Aids in E-Commerce

By: Jella Pfeiffer

This book gives recommendations on which interactive decision aids to offer in webstores. Interactive decision aids are tools that help online shoppers to compare and evaluate product information. Consumers can, for instance, exclude products that do not meet certain criteria, they can highlight certain information or they can assign ratings of different kinds. Interactive decision aids are important, because finding the preferred product in a short amount of time increases both the customers’ satisfaction and, in turn, the sales volume.This book includes a detailed description of decision aids, closely studies how decision aids are related to the decision behavior of customers, and develops a comprehensive system of decision aids, which is very flexible, increases both customer satisfaction and confidence, and can be used intuitively. The close link between typical behaviors and the decision aids allows webstores to learn about customers’ decision-making behavior by using a simple click stream analysis. The book is written in an easy-to-read style and provides both practical recommendations and knowledge about consumer behavior

Heart of Conferring

By: Jennifer Wessberg,Tanya M. Pfeiffer

Weve all read or heard somewhere that our students are supposed to be reading for a large part of our readers workshop. But, what do we do when they are reading? How do we do conferring in a way that is manageable and effective for our students? How do we know if Sarah chose an appropriate book? How do we know if the little boy who loves non-fiction isnt just staring at the cool pictures? What should a child do after the conference? The Heart Of Conferring delivers a commonsense approach to all these questions and more. This book provides a structure and a roadmap to the fourth part of our readers workshop (read aloud, shared reading, guided reading, independent reading/conferring), the part that is most often overlooked. Conferring; The Heart of Conferring, written by two everyday teachers, takes the reader on a journey through the essential steps of the conferring process in the readers workshop. This book provides the everyday, working teacher with dialogue from real reading conferences, the benefits of why we do this, and the ever allusive how to confer effectively and keep it going all year long. This book will be enlightening to any teacher who confers, wants to confer or has tried and stopped. It will be an effective tool for the seasoned veteran or the first year teacher. Join us on our journey through the Heart of Conferring.

Race Passing and American Individualism

By: Kathleen Pfeiffer

Pfeiffer studies the fiction of William Dean Howells, Frances E.W. Harper, Jean Toomer, James Weldon Johnson, Jessie Fauset, and Nella Larsen. She supports the ambiguous theory that the African-American characters found in these six authors' works are reinventing themselves by passing as white.

Battling the Big Lie

How Fox, Facebook, and the MAGA Media Are Destroying America

By: Dan Pfeiffer

“BATTLING THE BIG LIE is an important read for anyone who’s wondering how the far right traffics in lies and what we can all do to fight back.” ―PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA THE INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER OF YES WE (STILL) CAN! AND CO-HOST OF POD SAVE AMERICA. BATTLING THE BIG LIE explains how to combat political disinformation and dangerous lies of the right-wing propaganda machine. In BATTLING THE BIG LIE, bestselling author Dan Pfeiffer dissects how the right-wing built a massive, billionaire-funded disinformation machine powerful enough to bend reality and nearly steal the 2020 election. From the perspective of someone who has spent decades on the front lines of politics and media, Pfeiffer lays out how the right-wing media apparatus works, where it came from, and what progressives can do to fight back against disinformation. Over a period of decades, the right-wing has built a massive media apparatus that is weaponizing misinformation and spreading conspiracy theories for political purposes. ⁠This “MAGA Megaphone”⁠ that is personified by Fox News and fueled by Facebook⁠ is waging war on the very idea of objective truth—and they are winning. This disinformation campaign is how Donald Trump won in 2016, almost won in 2020, and why the United States is incapable of addressing problems from COVID-19 to climate change. Pfeiffer explains how and why the Republicans have come to depend on culture war grievances, crackpot conspiracies, and truly sinister propaganda as their primary political strategies, including: Republican efforts from Roger Ailes to Steve Bannon and Donald Trump to sow distrust while exploiting the media’s biases and the Democratic Party’s blind spots. The optimization of Facebook as the ultimate carrier of Trumpist messaging. Educating the Left to stop clutching pearls and start “fighting fire with fire.” How to fight back against the trolls spreading disinformation and hate on the Internet. A functioning democracy depends on a shared understanding of reality. America is teetering on the edge because one of the two parties in our two-party system views truth, facts, and science as their opponent. BATTLING THE BIG LIE is a call to arms for anyone and everyone who cares about truth and democracy. There are no easy answers or quick fixes, but something must be done.
