Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David’s girlfriend dumped him, he writes about bars for a shrinking newspaper, and he’s desperately searching for meaning amongst Sydney’s shallow social and dating scene. Then he meets a young woman at a party who just might be the answer to his life’s meaninglessness. However, she’s only 19 – and one of his journalism student’s friends. Drowning in the Shallows is about a man who tries to curb his sleazier tendencies in the #metoo era, about a cat’s ruthless attempt to dominate its owner, and about how – in a society obsessed with networking – we’re more estranged than ever.
Book Synopsis Sharks in the Shallows by : W. Clay Creswell
Download or read book Sharks in the Shallows written by W. Clay Creswell and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2021-06-14 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed account of over one hundred shark-related incidents on the coast of the Carolinas from a shark-bite investigator Powerful and mysterious, sharks inspire both fascination and fear. Worldwide, oceans are home to some five-hundred species, and of those, fifty-six are known to reside in or pass through the waters off the coast of both North and South Carolina. At any given time, waders, swimmers, and surfers enjoying these waters are frequently within just one-hundred feet of a shark. While it's unnerving to know that sharks often swim just below the surface in the shallows, W. Clay Creswell, a shark-bite investigator for the Shark Research Institute's Global Shark Attack File, explains that attacks on humans are extremely rare. In 2019 the International Shark Attack File confirmed sixty-four unprovoked attacks on humans, including three in North Carolina and one in South Carolina. While acknowledging that they pose real dangers to humans, Creswell believes the fear of sharks is greatly exaggerated. During his sixteen-year association with the Shark Research Institute, he has investigated more than one hundred shark-related incidents and has maintained a database of all shark–human encounters along the Carolina coastlines back to 1817. Creswell uses this data to expose the truth and history of this often-sensationalized topic. Beyond the statistics related to attacks in the Carolina waters, Sharks in the Shallows offers a history of shark–human interactions and an introduction to the world of shark attacks. Creswell details the conditions that increase a person's chances of an encounter, profiles the three species most often involved in attacks, and reveals the months and time of day with the highest probability of an encounter. With a better understanding of sharks' responses to their environment, and what motivates them to attack humans, he hopes people will develop a greater appreciation of the invaluable role sharks play in our marine environment.

Book excerpt: When I so desperately sought the approval of other people, it led me to live a life of chaos. I was literally like an infant being tossed around in a violent thunderstorm-or probably more like a hurricane. This way of living sent me down a path of destruction, thrown every which way in an attempt to "arrive" at Destination: "They Love Me" and trying to "be" whatever was required at that moment to be accepted. Holy moly, am I the only one? Giving the world an à la carte version of yourself will not lead to life. Instead, it will leave you with an unquenchable thirst for more, with your head on a perpetual swivel.I invite you on this journey with me beyond the shallow and into the deep__beyond the topics that are easy or socially accepted and into the deeper realm that begs to remain silent yet longs to be set free. Truly free. Journal your way to a life worth living.
Book Synopsis The Student's Research Companion by : Omid Aschari
Download or read book The Student's Research Companion written by Omid Aschari and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing research means to bravely battle several challenges at once: not only do you try to come to grasps with your topic, conduct a useful project, and write it all up. You also serve as crucial motivator and hardest critic. You are expected to challenge yourself enough to grow, but not enough to lose your wits. And those are only two of the countless difficult balances to keep. No wonder that especially junior researchers feel exhausting stress, encounter intellectual and emotional cramps, and sometimes seemingly turn into thoroughly drained ghosts at the end of their research journey. If you are wary of your upcoming final academic project since you have seen how others have struggled, this book is for you. It draws together fifty useful mindsets throughout the thesis process that can help you keep your nerves together, your mind sharp, and your productivity up. The (junior) research experience needs to improve. This book will help find ways to optimize this experience. It follows the notion to consider junior researchers first as human beings, second as citizens, and third as researchers. Researchers are not algorithms that pick and apply methodology to problems - researchers are people who seek opportunities to help solve societies' problems by growing into the ability to reliably answer questions. If you agree, then this book is for you.

Book Synopsis Strangers Drowning by : Larissa MacFarquhar
Download or read book Strangers Drowning written by Larissa MacFarquhar and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to devote yourself wholly to helping others? In Strangers Drowning, Larissa MacFarquhar seeks out people living lives of extreme ethical commitment, and tells their intimate stories: their stubborn integrity and their compromises; their bravery and their recklessness; their wrenching dilemmas. A couple adopts two children in distress. But then they think: if they can change two lives, why not four? Or ten? They adopt twenty. But how do they weigh the needs of unknown children in distress against the needs of the children they already have? Another couple founds a leprosy colony in the wilderness in India, living in huts with no walls, knowing that their two small children may contract leprosy or be eaten by panthers. The children survive. But what if they hadn't? How would their parents' risk have been judged? We honour such generosity and high ideals; but when we call people 'do-gooders' there is scepticism in it, even hostility. Why do moral people make us uneasy? Between her stories, MacFarquhar threads a lively history of the novels, philosophy, social science, and self-help that have contributed to a deep suspicion of do-gooders in Western culture. Through its sympathetic and beautifully vivid storytelling, Strangers Drowning confronts us with fundamental questions about what it means to be human. In a world of strangers drowning in need, how much should we help, and how much can we help? Is it right to care for strangers even at the expense of those we are closest to? Moving and provocative, Strangers Drowning challenges us to think about what we value most, and why.

Book Synopsis I Am the Decisions That I’Ve Made by : Ritchie Mcphee
Download or read book I Am the Decisions That I’Ve Made written by Ritchie Mcphee and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In writing this book, I was imagining myself living in a free World. This book was not written for anyone to subscribe to. The thoughts and expressions are just that, my thoughts and expressions, yes they belong to me. Ive always thought out of the box, and I mean out of the box without any confinements. Ive heard the expression out of the box on many occasions, but how far individuals are willing to venture out, is almost always limited. We should all have the freedom to think, we should all have the freedom to express ourselves, and we should all have the freedom to be free. How is it that we dont want to know who are enemies are, and how is it that we want others to think for us? I am right, but Im not afraid to be wrong. In essence everything is a matter of opinion. There is no right, and there is no wrong, for we are all right, and we are all wrong. It is just our interpretation of the truth, and for a lot of us, its what we want the truth to be.
