Book Synopsis Jaguar of Sweet Laughter by : Diane Ackerman
Download or read book Jaguar of Sweet Laughter written by Diane Ackerman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-07-27 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Natural History of the Senses Diane Ackerman revealed herself as a naturalist who writes with the sensuous immediately of a great poet. Now Jaguar of Sweet Laughter presents the work of a poet with the precise and wondering eye of a gifted naturalist. Ackermans's Olympian vision records and transforms landscapes from Amazonia to Antarctica, while her imaginative empathy penetrates the otherness of hummingbirds, deer, and trilobites. But even as they draw readers into the wild heart of nature, Ackerman's poems are indelible reminders of what it is to be a human being—the "jaguar of sweet laughter" that, according to Mayan mythology, astonished the world because it was the first animal to speak.
Book Synopsis Laughter in the Shadows by : Stuart E. Methven
Download or read book Laughter in the Shadows written by Stuart E. Methven and published by US Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This memoir of a CIA operations officer captures the spirit of the early years of the Agency, a period sometimes described as its "finest hours." Using the alias "St. Martin," Stuart Methven served in the CIA from the 1950s through the 1970s." "The book opens by describing the author's training in the clandestine arts and subsequent assignment to Asia in a country he names "Bushido." There he is involved in numerous operations, including one that takes him under the ocean, and earns his case officer's "brevet." A nation-building program in "Cham" follows, which begins well enough when Methven gains a tribal leader's confidence by parachuting badly needed supplies to his mountain village. It ends abruptly, however, with a coup d'etat and civil war that forces Methven's evacuation, the first of several during his career." "His next assignment is in South Vietnam working to counter another budding insurgency. Methven spends four years in the mountain and delta provinces of Vietnam before being given a sabbatical to MIT's School of International Studies. After completing his studies, he returns to Southeast Asia as a deputy station chief with a focus on a large Soviet mission in "Samudra" and the recruitment of Soviet military officers. Promoted to station chief, his final assignment is in central Africa, where his station becomes center stage for a large covert operation that attracts Soviet and Cuban military intervention." "Glimpses of the CIA from the inside are rare, and Methven's recollections of his experiences during a formative period in the agency's history will be of particular value to those with an interest in the CIA and international affairs - and in spy stories."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Redeeming Laughter by : Peter L. Berger
Download or read book Redeeming Laughter written by Peter L. Berger and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amid the variety of human experiences, the comic occupies a distinctive place. It is simultaneously ubiquitous, relative, and fragile. In this book, Peter L. Berger reflects on the nature of the comic and its relationship to other human experiences. Berger contends that the comic is an integral aspect of human life, yet one that must be approached and analyzed circumspectly and circuitously. Beginning with an exploration of the anatomy of the comic, Berger addresses humor in philosophy, physiology, psychology, and the social sciences before turning to a discussion of different types of comedy and finally suggesting a theology of the comic in terms of its relationship to folly, redemption, and transcendence. Along the way, the reader is treated to a variety of jokes on a variety of topics, with particular emphasis on humor and its relationship to religion. Originally published in 1997, the second edition includes a new preface reflecting on Berger’s work in the intervening years, particularly on the relationship between humor and modernity.
Book Synopsis Land Without Laughter by : Ahmad Kamal
Download or read book Land Without Laughter written by Ahmad Kamal and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-08 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the veins of the men of Tataristan courses the blood of Mongol, Hun, Macedonian and Chinese…the fanaticism of Saladin’s and Tamerlane’s Islam, and a rich heritage of Chinese wile." This is the land and these are the countrymen of Ahmad Kamal’s ancestors. A Muslim of Tartar stock, Mr. Kamal was born in America. His great-grandfather fought against the Russians in Central Asia. More than a century later, his American descendant returned to renew the battle in the 1930s. Kamal entered Turkestan through India and Tibet, crossing in mid-winter the most formidable frontier in the world, the Himalayan passes. The account of this journey — under constant threat of extinction from falling avalanches of snow — begins a series of almost incredibly hazardous adventures, told with an authenticity that unrolls the whole richly colored tapestry of a strange, feudal, and barbaric land. AuthorBio: Ahmad Kamal was born on a Colorado Indian reservation in 1914 of Turco-Tatar parents who were forced into exile by the Tsar for participation in the 1905 Revolution. Kamal's genetic makeup imprinted all his endeavors be they as deep sea diver, combat pilot, horseman, warrior, and as exponent of national self-determination. He commanded the Basmachi Rebellion in Turkistan in the 1920's and 1930's, supported the independence of Indonesia and Algeria, and was commanding General of the Muslim liberation forces of the Union of Burma into the 1980's. Though he devoted his entire life to the independence of his fatherland from the Russian and Chinese yokes, he died a month short of the collapse of the USSR. Japan's press, Asahi Shimbun marked his exsistence stating: "Ahmad Kamal lived like a Samurai—and died like a Samurai."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A car accident had caused her to become a wisp of a green soul, but it had actually attached itself to the body of a young lady of an official. "Since I'm here, I might as well settle down." Fang Zijun consoled himself. She received a piece of news that caused her to be stunned with her eyes wide open. One month later, they would be entering the palace for the talent show? With her title of doctor returning to the country, it shouldn't be too arduous for her to stay in the palace for three years! It was a pity that his luck had made a fool of him and offended someone he shouldn't have. "Woman, if you can't cure This King's illness, don't even think of leaving!" The man's sinister gaze, taking advantage of his pale face, trembled with fear! "Woman, you can only be This King's woman in your life!" The man lightly smiled. With a crafty gaze, he was extremely proud. "Woman, even if you have already gone to the underworld, This King will still find you and bring you back!" It was a bit domineering, with a heart piercing regret that made him wish he was dead, but there was nothing more he could do. Last night, the westerly wind withered the jade-green trees. Alone on the tall building, looking at the road, several entanglement, things are different. Once the lead flower was washed away, one would be standing on top of the imperial court, scheming to rule the world! On the palace wall, the faint smile from yesterday could be heard. After a few peach blossoms had drifted down, it was as if he was in the afterlife.
