Comment se faire respecter ? En lisant ce petit manuel politique et citoyen qui vous apprend l’art d’avoir le dernier mot sans forcément agresser l’autre. Ce livre à la fois solide et pratique explique comment faire, lorsque le discours de l’autre vous place en position de dominé(e), pour rétorquer, avoir le dernier mot et garder la tête haute. Ce qui importe le plus ici, ce sont les situations de domination dont on n’arrive pas à sortir parce qu’on a intériorisé, à tort, le fait qu’on était dominé, ou faible, et donc qu’on n’avait a priori pas les moyens de lutter, d’où la perte de la fierté, de la dignité ou du respect dû. Qu’est-ce qui nous paralyse dans le discours de l’autre ? Quelles sont les marques de domination, de violence et de manipulation ? Comment récupérer de l’esprit critique et faire preuve de présence d’esprit pour échapper à l’emprise des préjugés ou de la pure réactivité ? Comment se positionner et rétorquer ? Comment s’émanciper en existant avec ses propres mots ?

Read Notorious RBG The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Audible Audio Edition Irin Carmon Shana Knizhnik Andi Arndt HarperAudio Books

Download As PDF : Notorious RBG The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Audible Audio Edition Irin Carmon Shana Knizhnik Andi Arndt HarperAudio BooksIrin Carmon I heard you can do 20 push-ups.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Yes, but we do 10 at a time. And then I breathe for a bit and do the second set.
Nearly a half century into being a feminist and legal pioneer, something funny happened to Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg The octogenarian won the Internet. Across America, people who weren't even born when Ginsburg made her name are tattooing themselves with her face, setting her famously searing dissents to music, and making viral videos in tribute. In a class of its own, and much to Ginsburg's own amusement, is the Notorious RBG Tumblr, which juxtaposes the diminutive but fierce Jewish grandmother with the 350-pound rapper featuring original artwork submitted from around the world.
Notorious RBG The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg offers a rich, intimate, unprecedented look at the justice and how she changed the world. From Ginsburg's refusal to let the slammed doors of sexism stop her to her innovative legal work, from her before-its-time feminist marriage to her perch on the nation's highest court - with the fierce dissents to match - get to know RBG as never before. As the country struggles with the unfinished business of gender equality and civil rights, Ginsburg stands as a testament to how far we can come with a little chutzpah.
Read Notorious RBG The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Audible Audio Edition Irin Carmon Shana Knizhnik Andi Arndt HarperAudio Books
"I don't think someone from my generation would have the imagination to design a book this way, or to include a photo feature about a Supreme Court Justice's "swag." But fundamentally this is a wonderful book about the difference an individual can make. The book's breezy style has a deeper and more serious significance, as well.
I was touched by many things in this book, not only the courage of Justice Ginsburg's opinions, or the loving handwritten note from her dying husband, but even by the photos illustrating her close friendship with Justice Scalia, one of her ideological opposites - it's rare to see such a mensh in these times. The format is terrifically creative for this sort of subject: the NY Times reviewer aptly described it as being "as if a scrapbook and the Talmud decided to have a baby." The latter comes in especially for the way the book's margins are used for commenting on everything -- not just for the obvious connections to a Justice who is Jewish. (Apropos of that, though, one thing did puzzle me: the recipe for pork in milk at the back. Breaking two of the Jewish religion's food taboos at once -- isn't that a little gangsta? Was that the idea, or is the whole thing a joke? And actually, one other thing: the publisher's subject classification on the back cover is "Fiction." Aside from the recipe, I hope not.)
I now live in Japan and teach comparative constitutional law there. Pretty much no one, including most law professors, can name the justices of the Japan Supreme Court, who are chosen for their anonymity, their conformity to a certain social background, and their timidity of thought. And throughout its nearly 70-year existence, the JSC has always upheld laws and regulations that limit civil rights. One reason I got this book was to be able to show my students how completely different the relationship between a country's Supreme Court and its citizens can be. In most countries of the world, a book like this would be inconceivable. While I'm not saying that many other Justices deserve such a tribute, this book should be a great reminder for Americans how lucky you are not only to have Justice Ginsburg, but also to be capable of such affectionate engagement with your government."

Notorious RBG The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Audible Audio Edition Irin Carmon Shana Knizhnik Andi Arndt HarperAudio Books Reviews
- Great so far, but DO NOT get the version. There are a lot of interesting pictures/graphics that contribute to the book and you will be very very sad to have to look at them on a screen - the adaptation is terrible. At least now, its more expensive than the hardcover version, which is ridiculous. I flipped through the actual book and it is laid out well and aesthetically pleasing... the version is not that at all. I'm really disappointed.

While I'm not saying that many other Justices deserve such a tribute, this book should be a great reminder for Americans how lucky you are not only to have Justice Ginsburg, but also to be capable of such affectionate engagement with your government. - I've been a huge fan of RBG and was looking forward to a thorough account and analysis of her life, career, and achievements. But this just isn't it.
Sure it glosses over some major legal milestones, but it spends as much time on her workouts, wardrobe, baby pictures, etc. It contains a mere 200 sparsely printed but amply (and beautifully) illustrated pages, and really offers little other than coffee table amusement to any normal adult. I'm planning on either donating this to my son's middleschool library or gift it to a progressive minded pre-teen girl; that's the audience this book is pitched at.
My fault, I guess. It's a lesson learned in online shopping; I should have gone to a physical bookstore to browse before buying.
Giving 2 stars because it may be good for the right audience, i.e., inspiring pre-teens to the idea of public service. - An excellent book and very inspiring. I'm glad there is someone like her on the Supreme Court. One thing that stuck out for me was her explanation as to why she didn't retire early so that Obama could put in a good replacement for her. And the explanation was that many women have been pushed out early. And trying to push women out so they can make room for others isn't right. People were also trying to push out Breyer but RGB was the one getting most of the press for not leaving.
- I was disappointed as I wanted to read about why she is the woman she is, not a laundry list of her achievements. It was written in a very simple style with no challenging ideas, and no concepts that made me actually made consider the difficulties involved in her decision making.
I read about half of it and put it away, as I lost interest in what seemed like a love story about how much we should adore RBG. I already adore her and her ideals and did not want to read a litany of her life anecdotes. My life had more challenges and reading about hers came off as boring. Sorry, I wanted to love this book, but couldn't.

Download As PDF : The Nature of Plants An Introduction to How Plants Work Craig N Huegel 9780813064086 BooksPlants play a critical role in how we experience our environment. They create calming green spaces, provide oxygen for us to breathe, and nourish our senses. In The Nature of Plants, ecologist and nursery owner Craig Huegel demystifies the complex lives of plants and provides readers with an elucidating journey into their inner and outer workings.
Beginning with the importance of light, water, and soil, Huegel describes photosynthesis, plant circadian rhythms, and how best to position plants to receive optimal sunlight. He explains choosing artificial lights for landscaping, giving lucky bamboo its twisted shape, and tricking flowers like poinsettias to bloom at a specific time of year. He reveals how plants use water, what paths it takes to move nutrients and fuel growth, and why too much―or too little―can hurt. He also explains what essential elements plants need to flourish and what friendly bacteria, fungi, and insects help make a healthy soil.
Sections on plant structure and reproduction focus in detail on major plant organs―roots, stems, and leaves―and cover flowering, pollination, fruit development, and seed germination. The intricacies behind how plants reproduce are unraveled, including why not all flowering plants need pollinators, how it can take decades for some plants to produce offspring, and whether parents recognize their kin. Huegel even delves into the mysterious world of plant communication, exploring the messages and warnings conveyed to animals or other plants through chemical scents and hormones.
With color illustrations, photographs, and real-life examples from his own gardening experiences, Huegel equips budding botanists, ecologists, and even the most novice gardeners with knowledge that will help them understand and foster plants of all types.

Download As PDF : The Secret Wisdom of Nature Trees Animals and the Extraordinary Balance of All Living Things Stories from Science and Observation The Mysteries of Nature Trilogy Book 3 Audible Audio Edition Peter Wohlleben Jane Billinghurst translator Sean Barrett Inc Blackstone Audio BooksThe final audiobook in the Mysteries of Nature trilogy by the New York Times best-selling author of The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben.
Nature is full of surprises - deciduous trees affect the rotation of the Earth, cranes sabotage the production of Iberian ham, and coniferous forests can make it rain - but what are the processes that drive these incredible phenomena? And why do they matter?
In The Secret Wisdom of Nature, master storyteller and international sensation Peter Wohlleben takes listeners on a thought-provoking exploration of the vast natural systems that make life on Earth possible. In this tour of an almost unfathomable world, Wohlleben describes the fascinating interplay between animals and plants and answers such questions as "How do they influence each other?", "Do lifeforms communicate across species boundaries?", and "What happens when this finely tuned system gets out of sync?".
By introducing us to the latest scientific discoveries and recounting his own insights from decades of observing nature, one of the world's most famous foresters shows us how to recapture our sense of awe so we can see the world around us with completely new eyes.

- If you like the style of previous Peter Wohlleben books then you will enjoy The Secret Wisdom of Nature. Choosing ecosystems for its theme, the book is more united by conveying scientifically valid facts with emotional resonance than by a strict focus on its subject. This is not to say that the book has no larger themes. Only that whether one likes the book will be less determined by virtue of its conclusions than by whether one likes anecdotal science.
Essentially, Wohlleben aims for depicting the incredible amount of interconnectedness and homeostasis that takes part at the macro level between plants and animals. Thus, we learn of the effects of bacteria thousands of feet under the earth as well as the perennial Wohllebenian theme of the tragedy of the loss of old growth forests.
While the material will not be as surprising to readers as the science in the Hidden Life of Trees this doesn’t mean that it is uninteresting or not worth reading.
And Wohlleben’s larger theme that macro-level ecosystems are so complex that it is best if we simply try to limit the effects of our species as much as possible—rather than intervene to recreate older biological homeostases—is well-argued and relevant to present day environmentalism.
I cannot say my worldview was transformed by this book, but I can say I was not only entertained but educated to have more informed opinions on environmental issues. His realistic but optimistic approach to handling such problems in the Anthropocene era is a refreshing change from more alarmist perspectives.
In short, there are no real faults in the book just less material than the Hidden Life of Trees which will completely surprise the reader. It’s worth adding the perspective, tone and information in this book to one’s outlook on nature. - The Secret Wisdom of Nature is the third in author Wohlleben's trilogy. The first dealt with trees and the second with animals. Both were marvelous in the way science and Wohlleben's anecdotes were interwoven into enjoyable and easy to read text. That's nothing to say of his great knowledge, much learned by first hand observation, of our physical world. Secret Wisdom is written in the same manner with the same surprising facts, e.g. killing wolves in Yellowstone caused erosion along riverbanks. Huh!? Yes it's true. On page 167 the author writes, "Does that sound complicated? I think so too."
The real emphasis on the third book is the effect people have had on the environment and surprisingly it seems that even actions meant to help often have deleterious effects. Germans have made an effort to feed roe deer helping them make it through hard winters. Now there are more deer than ever and of course the effect on woodlands is not the best as the browsers are doing what they do best.
There's a dark side to human activity as well. It seems our success as a species is based in part on our ability and willingness to kill anything that flies, swims, crawls, or walks. But putting that aside our complete domination of the planet, even when well intentioned, can have unintended consequences. Let me add a personal note. This winter was very cold with record setting snow. We decided to feed wild turkeys to get them though the winter. The 105 turkeys are doing fine but they have scared off the crows, blue jays, and woodpeckers. By helping one specie we have probably hurt others. This is much of what Wohlleben writes.
Same size book as first two with same paper and same size print. Maybe not as good as first two books (they were really ,really good) but I'm still glad I bought it. Recommended. - As with his other books, the author takes us deep into the life of our planet, re-teaching what I believe we once all knew when we were more in step with our natural world...how flora and fauna live intricate, inter-woven lives. Reading Peter's books brings us back into balance with Nature, I highly recommend you read all three books.
- Love love love
- Very good!
- I love this book!
- I found it very interesting.
- Expediency and delivered as promised

«Guarda, purché tu non pianga più, ti dirò che, quando diventerai grande e nessuno vorrà sposarsi con te, e ti assicuro che sarà così perché sei così brutta che non ti si può guardare, mi sposerò io con te. Chiaro? Ora smetti di piangere?» La bambina lo guardò, gli fece un enorme sorriso e con la sua piccola manina si impossessò del dito pollice di Alan, siglando la promessa che lui le aveva appena fatto.
Una promessa di amore eterno
“Ti prometto che ti amerò per sempre”. Marian era stata la donna più falsa che avesse mai conosciuto e avrebbe voluto gridarle in faccia che, anche se fosse rimasta l'unica donna sulla faccia della terra, avrebbe preferito rimanere celibe piuttosto che cadere tra le sue grinfie.
Due donne che lottano per avere il rispetto di un paese pieno di uomini maschilisti. Una lotta che sono decise a vincere. E mentre combattono, si caricano sulle spalle il peso di promesse fatte molto tempo addietro.
Dopo ventitré anni, che valore può avere la promessa di matrimonio che fece Alan Martìn, che di anni ne aveva sette, a Elisa Parker il giorno in cui nacque?
Che valore può avere il “ti amerò per sempre” di una fidanzata che scappa e torna trentun anni dopo?
Elisa e Alan, Marian ed Eduardo avranno il compito di scoprirlo in questa storia piena di situazioni divertenti e momenti emozionanti.

Read Three Hundred Years of Decadence New Orleans Literature and the Transatlantic World Robert Azzarello Books
By Robert Jensen on Saturday, 1 June 2019
Read Three Hundred Years of Decadence New Orleans Literature and the Transatlantic World Robert Azzarello Books
Download As PDF : Three Hundred Years of Decadence New Orleans Literature and the Transatlantic World Robert Azzarello BooksNew Orleans’s reputation as a decadent city stems in part from its environmental precariousness, its Francophilia, its Afro-Caribbean connections, its Catholicism, and its litany of alleged “vices,†encompassing prostitution, miscegenation, homosexuality, and any number of the seven deadly sins. An evocative work of cultural criticism, Robert Azzarello’s Three Hundred Years of Decadence argues that decadence can convey a more nuanced meaning than simple decay or decline conceived in physical, social, or moral terms. Instead, within New Orleans literature, decadence possesses a complex, even paradoxical relationship with concepts like beauty and health, progress, and technological advance.
Azzarello presents the concept of decadence, along with its perception and the uneasy social relations that result, as a suggestive avenue for decoding the long, shifting story of New Orleans and its position in the transatlantic world. By analyzing literary works that span from the late seventeenth century to contemporary speculations about the city’s future, Azzarello uncovers how decadence often names a transfiguration of values, in which ideas about supposed good and bad cannot maintain their stability and end up morphing into one another. These evolving representations of a decadent New Orleans, which Azzarello traces with attention to both details of local history and insights from critical theory, reveal the extent to which the city functions as a contact zone for peoples and cultures from Europe, Africa, and the Americas.
Drawing on a deep and understudied archive of New Orleans literature, Azzarello considers texts from multiple genres (fiction, poetry, drama, song, and travel writing), including many written in languages other than English. His analysis includes such works of transcription and translation as George Washington Cable’s “Creole Slave Songs†and Mary Haas’s Tunica Texts, which he places in dialogue with canonical and recent works about the city, as well as with neglected texts like Ludwig von Reizenstein’s German-language serial The Mysteries of New Orleans and Charles Chesnutt’s novel Paul Marchand, F.M.C.
With its careful analysis and focused scope, Three Hundred Years of Decadence uncovers the immense significance―historically, politically, and aesthetically―that literary imaginings of a decadent New Orleans hold for understanding the city’s position as a multicultural, transatlantic contact zone.
