Book Synopsis Beyond Final Arrangements by : David Merde
Download or read book Beyond Final Arrangements written by David Merde and published by Wordclay. This book was released on 2008-04 with total page 535 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clifton Mortuary was Jeremy Taylor's fourth employer in his sixteen-year career in the death care industry. A well proportioned, fit and relatively handsome man, Jeremy was considered personable although sometimes hard to read. Working in a profession that had been reduced to a mere trade was depressing enough by itself. There was little room for imagination and creativity but Jeremy's dedication to serving families was tempered with enthusiasm and when possible, humor. His mundane career and life however, were destined to change when he met Rhonda. Some misappropriate delegation and poor judgement, mixed with bouts of mismanagement, would result in a traumatic mistake at the mortuary. The life-altering event would be instrumental in changing him and the slumbering industry forever. Beyond Final Arrangements provides an inside look at the death care business tempered with humor, sadness, romance, sex, conflict and lawsuits.
Book Synopsis Beyond the Good Death by : James W. Green
Download or read book Beyond the Good Death written by James W. Green and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In November 1998, millions of television viewers watched as Thomas Youk died. Suffering from the late stages of Lou Gehrig's disease, Youk had called upon infamous Michigan pathologist Dr. Jack Kevorkian to help end his life on his own terms. After delivering the videotape to 60 Minutes, Kevorkian was arrested and convicted of manslaughter, despite the fact that Youk's family firmly believed that the ending of his life qualified as a good death. Death is political, as the controversies surrounding Jack Kevorkian and, more recently, Terri Schiavo have shown. While death is a natural event, modern end-of-life experiences are shaped by new medical, demographic, and cultural trends. People who are dying are kept alive, sometimes against their will or the will of their family, with powerful medications, machines, and "heroic measures." Current research on end-of-life issues is substantial, involving many fields. Beyond the Good Death takes an anthropological approach, examining the changes in our concept of death over the last several decades. As author James W. Green determines, the attitudes of today's baby boomers differ greatly from those of their parents and grandparents, who spoke politely and in hushed voices of those who had "passed away." Dr. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, in the 1960s, gave the public a new language for speaking openly about death with her "five steps of dying." If we talked more about death, she emphasized, it would become less fearful for everyone. The term "good death" reentered the public consciousness as narratives of AIDS, cancer, and other chronic diseases were featured on talk shows and in popular books such as the best-selling Tuesdays with Morrie. Green looks at a number of contemporary secular American death practices that are still informed by an ancient religious ethos. Most important, Beyond the Good Death provides an interpretation of the ways in which Americans react when death is at hand for themselves or for those they care about.

Book Synopsis Beyond All Expectations by : Felice Falzarano
Download or read book Beyond All Expectations written by Felice Falzarano and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2024-03-24 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life usually throws far too many curveballs to leave anyone without a wide array of fascinating anecdotes. Of all those thrown at me, I’m presenting the most significant, with this book. With my autobiographical memories I’m depicting my personal life, as a child, in my native country; Italy, as a young man and legal immigrant, in my adoptive country; the USA. Most important of all, a life about dreams I have pursued, of which many have come true and some in vain. Whereas, when people read about my experiences as an entrepreneur in the USA, it may seem to them that I have created, with my writing, a theater of dramas. It may seems that way, on the contrary, all of it it’s true. It was during that time that the ugliest of all curveballs were thrown at me, from all sides. This is the true story of my life, in two different parts of the worlds. Starting from re-enactments of family affections, of painful moments, and loving sentiments, to the most intriguing story of my life as legal immigrant and as a businessman in the USA. Particularly my involvement in the daily struggle that exists lately in the Apparel Industry in New York. An industry, which, like many others, according to my knowledge and to real facts, was destroyed and was given away to other countries, with the complicity of the corrupt politicians in Washington DC.
Book Synopsis Beyond Britannia by : Simon McDonald
Download or read book Beyond Britannia written by Simon McDonald and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2023-11-03 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An argument for a new approach to foreign policy in the United Kingdom. What should the future of British foreign policy look like? For too long, successive governments have shied away from acknowledging uncomfortable truths about the decline of Britain’s military capabilities. As we approach the middle years of the twenty-first century, a new set of urgent and daunting challenges lie ahead, including climate change, technological development, the rise of AI, and a growing threat from China. The need for us to reconcile ourselves with our position in the world has never been more acute. In Beyond Britannia: Reshaping UK Foreign Policy, Simon McDonald persuasively argues that the United Kingdom’s significant soft-power strengths can be harnessed to expand its international influence. Such a shift will only be possible, he says, if we first acknowledge the challenges of Brexit and the need to reduce our unrealistic hard-power ambitions. Excellence in areas that other countries care about will keep the United Kingdom internationally relevant in the second half of the century in a way that nostalgia for a lost pre-eminence will not.

Book Synopsis Federalism beyond Federations by : Ferran Requejo
Download or read book Federalism beyond Federations written by Ferran Requejo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Second World War, a set of democratic European countries have established a decentralized system of government based on federal or regional patterns. Some of these systems initially displayed an asymmetrical trend, however, some democracies have implemented a subsequent process of re-symmetrization that changes the structure and the legitimization of the previous political agreements. Charting the evolution of decentralization processes and asymmetries implemented in Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Italy, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Ukraine and the United Kingdom, leading international scholars illustrate which countries have evolved more symmetrically, why this is so and what the role of political actors in these processes have been. In doing so, each case study: - Examines the causes of the legal and constitutional asymmetries and the main political cleavages. - Analyses the main institutions, actors and factors that influence the political dynamics of the territorial debate. - Questions whether there is such a process of re-symmetrization - Presents the main actors in favour of the process of re-symmetrization and of maintaining the constitutional and legal asymmetries Written accessibly and contributing to key debates on federalism and asymmetry, Federalism beyond Federations appeals to academics, politicians, decision-makers and all those interested in the political problems facing modern democracies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready to fully connect with your own creatively unfolding inner truths? That challenge -- and opportunity -- confronts readers of Journey to the Inner Circle, and Beyond: One Man's Search for His True Self, a true story by noted trainer/coach/movement specialist Blaise Eagleheart. In exploring the depths of Blaise's mid-1980s experiences, readers will be creatively moving through their own personal life journey. "These freeing inner worlds are the one common thread all Mankind has that will allow anyone to ascend to the higher aspects within the God Consciousness that they are," Blaise explains. Be prepared to enter into a world of illusion, of feeling, of question, of sensitivity, of awareness, and of truth. Be open enough to seriously question the realities that exist and circulate within your current life concept and belief structure. Blaise writes, "As I peeled the layers away, I knew that to find the answers I would have to give up my life to the intelligence that first consummated my life journey at the moment of my conception. The evolution of the journey from the outer world in Chapter 1 to the experience of my death in Chapter 11 -- my ideas, my questions, my insights and my knowledge -- all was transcribed to paper in the event I did not survive the journey. To find the truth I had to be willing to give up my existence, not intellectually, but emotionally, and through experience, not through words." Author Blaise Eagleheart lives in Victoria, B.C., where he is the owner and operator of Natural Movement Centre. He is an Integrated Movement Specialist, Medical Exercise Specialist and Personal Trainer. As someone who has always 'walked his own creative path, ' Blaise became passionately aware of how the mind, body and emotions are functionally integrated and how they operate individually and collectively. He has openly shared his awareness with others to make the world a better place. Blaise has always been a warrior, consciously confronting illusionary beliefs to find his own experiential truths. He physically trained as a fanatic throughout his twenties, challenging his self-imposed beliefs in order to find the endless possibilities of his creative movements through unorthodox training methods. He played and coached rugby at club, Island and Provincial levels, before immersing himself in the martial art of Chien Lung. He also studied Eastern healing arts and other energy-based disciplines. He then opened a dojo with his Teacher, where he taught biomechanics of movement and life skills, as well as martial art classes for children and adults. Blaise continues to incorporate this martial art philosophy in his work at Natural Movement Centre. Contact Blaise Eagleheart through www.NaturalMovementCentre.com.

Book excerpt: This book is the continuing saga of Lucia, an active teenager, whose curiosity and behavior tend to get her into trouble. At the age of thirteen, she inherits the Condado of Segoia from the presumed death of her father, Don Fernando, while on crusade. In addition, she inherits several titles and a vast amount of wealth from her mother, Lady Margaret, who dies while giving birth to Lucia. Her wealth is coveted by Don Raimundo Ortega Diaz, the Conde of Donato. He needs Lucia's wealth to raise an army to take the throne of Castile and to plunder the vast riches that lie to the south in al-Andalus. He plots her demise in order to obtain her wealth. Set against the backdrop of the ongoing war against the Moors in late twelfth-century Spain, Lucia is trying to mature into her role as condesa. However, her life is not easy. How is she going to handle a possible battle with an order of warrior monks and, later, with the church itself? How does she handle an attempted rape? What happened to her dear friend, Isabella, who she loved as a sister? Even a journey to visit parts of her condado can be fraught with danger, especially from the troublesome Moors. As if life wasn't difficult enough, Lucia has to combat a blizzard, along with her confidant and dear friend, Gabriella, on their way to Christmas in Palencia. What happened to Gabriella? Were they rescued, and if so, by whom? Questions asked and questions answered weave their way through this saga of an adventurous young teen.
