Download or read book Kabul Beauty School written by Deborah Rodriguez and published by Random House. This book was released on 2007-04-10 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soon after the fall of the Taliban, in 2001, Deborah Rodriguez went to Afghanistan as part of a group offering humanitarian aid to this war-torn nation. Surrounded by men and women whose skills–as doctors, nurses, and therapists–seemed eminently more practical than her own, Rodriguez, a hairdresser and mother of two from Michigan, despaired of being of any real use. Yet she soon found she had a gift for befriending Afghans, and once her profession became known she was eagerly sought out by Westerners desperate for a good haircut and by Afghan women, who have a long and proud tradition of running their own beauty salons. Thus an idea was born. With the help of corporate and international sponsors, the Kabul Beauty School welcomed its first class in 2003. Well meaning but sometimes brazen, Rodriguez stumbled through language barriers, overstepped cultural customs, and constantly juggled the challenges of a postwar nation even as she learned how to empower her students to become their families’ breadwinners by learning the fundamentals of coloring techniques, haircutting, and makeup. Yet within the small haven of the beauty school, the line between teacher and student quickly blurred as these vibrant women shared with Rodriguez their stories and their hearts: the newlywed who faked her virginity on her wedding night, the twelve-year-old bride sold into marriage to pay her family’s debts, the Taliban member’s wife who pursued her training despite her husband’s constant beatings. Through these and other stories, Rodriguez found the strength to leave her own unhealthy marriage and allow herself to love again, Afghan style. With warmth and humor, Rodriguez details the lushness of a seemingly desolate region and reveals the magnificence behind the burqa. Kabul Beauty School is a remarkable tale of an extraordinary community of women who come together and learn the arts of perms, friendship, and freedom.

However, while her assistant is busy with motherhood, Mma Ramotswe must tackle tea-making and detective work alone.

But the agency is resilient, adaptable and open to useful lessons - in particular, that our enemies and allies are not always obvious.

Download or read book Salon Des Femmes written by Gary M. Douglas and published by Access Consciousness Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-09 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you lived in a world where everybody was kind to each other? What if you were the one who could assist in creating that?What if you had a relationship that was loving, caring, and receiving--and not unaware, not hating, and not judging?Gary Douglas is on a mission to end the perpetual conflict between men and women. Salon des Femmes is based on a series of teleclasses Douglas held with a group of women. They discussed men, sex, relationships, men's and women's roles, and creating amazing, harmonious relationships. It blends the ground-breaking Access Consciousness® tools and processes, insightful revelations and heart-warming inspiration. Says Douglas: "My desire is to give women in the world a greater sense of peace with others and peace with self and the place where they wouldn't feel like they have to fight for everything they are getting."Douglas encourages women to become "pragmatists of femininity," applying their feminine power to create what they want. A "pragmatic relationship" is where partners strive to make things work for everyone involved, he says. "Happily ever after doesn't occur unless you are willing to become pragmatic about your choices.""Salon des Femmes is a profound book. If it's read with care, it will change women's lives in really big ways."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Women of the French Salons" by Amelia Gere Mason is a collection of stories (often called "sketches") of some of the women who made the French Salons so illustrious. This society is known for its decadence and high culture which was, in part, thanks to the women who occupied the spaces alongside the men. Thus, Mason's work pays tribute to these women in a fascinating read.

Download or read book Women in Early America written by Dorothy Auchter Mays and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-11-23 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume fills a gap in traditional women's history books by offering fascinating details of the lives of early American women and showing how these women adapted to the challenges of daily life in the colonies. Women in Early America: Struggle, Survival, and Freedom in a New World provides insight into an era in American history when women had immense responsibilities and unusual freedoms. These women worked in a range of occupations such as tavernkeeping, printing, spiritual leadership, trading, and shopkeeping. Pipe smoking, beer drinking, and premarital sex were widespread. One of every eight people traveling with the British Army during the American Revolution was a woman. The coverage begins with the 1607 settlement at Jamestown and ends with the War of 1812. In addition to the role of Anglo-American women, the experiences of African, French, Dutch, and Native American women are discussed. The issues discussed include how women coped with rural isolation, why they were prone to superstitions, who was likely to give birth out of wedlock, and how they raised large families while coping with immense household responsibilities.
