Book Synopsis Seeking Love in Modern Britain by : Zoe Strimpel
Download or read book Seeking Love in Modern Britain written by Zoe Strimpel and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seeking Love in Modern Britain charts the emergence of the modern British single through an account of the dating industry that sprang up to serve men and women. It shows how – amid a period of unprecedented sexual and social change – 'the single' became a key unisex identity and lifestyle. From around 1970, a growing, cottage-style matchmaking industry in Britain was offering the romantically solo a choice between computer dating firms, such as Dateline or Compudate, introduction agencies and the lonely hearts pages of Private Eye, Time Out and others. Zoe Strimpel reveals how this rapidly expanding landscape of services was catering to a new breed of single people, and how – by the late 1990s – singleness had become the culturally mainstream, wholly expected part of the romantic life cycle that it is today. Refuting the widespread idea that the Internet invented modern dating, this book uses an eclectic and engaging range of first-person accounts and snapshots from the time to show that the story of contemporary romance, mediated courtship and singleness began in a time long before Tinder.

Download or read book Modern Romance written by Aziz Ansari and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The #1 New York Times Bestseller “An engaging look at the often head-scratching, frequently infuriating mating behaviors that shape our love lives.” —Refinery 29 A hilarious, thoughtful, and in-depth exploration of the pleasures and perils of modern romance from Aziz Ansari, the star of Master of None and one of this generation’s sharpest comedic voices At some point, every one of us embarks on a journey to find love. We meet people, date, get into and out of relationships, all with the hope of finding someone with whom we share a deep connection. This seems standard now, but it’s wildly different from what people did even just decades ago. Single people today have more romantic options than at any point in human history. With technology, our abilities to connect with and sort through these options are staggering. So why are so many people frustrated? Some of our problems are unique to our time. “Why did this guy just text me an emoji of a pizza?” “Should I go out with this girl even though she listed Combos as one of her favorite snack foods? Combos?!” “My girlfriend just got a message from some dude named Nathan. Who’s Nathan? Did he just send her a photo of his penis? Should I check just to be sure?” But the transformation of our romantic lives can’t be explained by technology alone. In a short period of time, the whole culture of finding love has changed dramatically. A few decades ago, people would find a decent person who lived in their neighborhood. Their families would meet and, after deciding neither party seemed like a murderer, they would get married and soon have a kid, all by the time they were twenty-four. Today, people marry later than ever and spend years of their lives on a quest to find the perfect person, a soul mate. For years, Aziz Ansari has been aiming his comic insight at modern romance, but for Modern Romance, the book, he decided he needed to take things to another level. He teamed up with NYU sociologist Eric Klinenberg and designed a massive research project, including hundreds of interviews and focus groups conducted everywhere from Tokyo to Buenos Aires to Wichita. They analyzed behavioral data and surveys and created their own online research forum on Reddit, which drew thousands of messages. They enlisted the world’s leading social scientists, including Andrew Cherlin, Eli Finkel, Helen Fisher, Sheena Iyengar, Barry Schwartz, Sherry Turkle, and Robb Willer. The result is unlike any social science or humor book we’ve seen before. In Modern Romance, Ansari combines his irreverent humor with cutting-edge social science to give us an unforgettable tour of our new romantic world.

Book Synopsis The Diet for Your Mind to Help You Fin by : Oscar Settle
Download or read book The Diet for Your Mind to Help You Fin written by Oscar Settle and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The" Diet for the Mind belongs on the bookshelf next to the many books for the body diet. After all, which is more important, to diet to have a healthy fine scrupled physical body, which will one day rot and return to the earth, or to diet to have a mind fed with the spirit of good to save the soul, which will live eternally "The" mind diet has completed my dieting, because now I know the truth and I am free. I am free in mind, body and soul. "The" Diet for the Mind will teach that God is a trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and God created man as a trinity; spirit, body and soul. Furthermore, "The" Diet teaches on the trinity of evil, the trinity of consciousness, and the trinity of Christianity "The" Diet for the Mind has a menu that begins with appetizers and ends with desserts. The diet explains why humanity needs a diet, the appetizers, for the mind and how to diet and change the mind to find the dessert, love. The Holy Bible is used by Minister Settle as The Manual because The Manual is from the creator, and all has to agree that the creator's manual is the best resource for the creation. Thus, as humanity supplies a manual for instructions on the existence of whatever is created, the creator of humanity has provided his manual for the education, edification, and instructions to his creation; humanity. So, Chevrolet instructs on the care and maintenance of the existence of the Chevrolet car, and ditto is true with Ford cars. Thus, it doesn't take a PHD in the study of existence to accept that the creator knows what is best for the creation. "The" Diet for the Mind is not based upon Minister Settle's diet or any other mortal's instructions. Rather, "The" mind diet is presented from the creator's instructions, found in the manual for the diet, the Holy Bible
