Book Synopsis Pandemic Proofing Students With One Habit by : Elbert House
Download or read book Pandemic Proofing Students With One Habit written by Elbert House and published by elbert house. This book was released on 2009-05-05 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The root words program is self teaching and involves students in repetitive behaviors as described by William James in his 1899 speech to teachers on students' habits in removing anxiety about the upshot of their education and becoming friends with their nervous system. This program is also visibly expressed by the mystery associated with the assurances inherent in the home court advantage and the repeating of behaviors by the sixth man in the stand in the short period of time it takes to view a basketball game. This visible representation is an excellent teaching model for understanding what the root words card games and program will do. Others have described repeating behaviors for visible observation but with far longer intervals of time between the repetitive behaviors and the assured outcome that repeating causes. Root words are foundational. Students become engrossed in the fun and entertainment of the program's activities.

In addition it will improve their self-image, cause them to practice thoughtfulness, inspire unity in pursuing goals, and develop a focal mindset.
Book Synopsis Planet Neptune and the Modern Us Presidents: Franklin Roosevelt to Barack Obama by : Suzanne Angioli
Download or read book Planet Neptune and the Modern Us Presidents: Franklin Roosevelt to Barack Obama written by Suzanne Angioli and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While studying the astrological birth charts of all the US presidents, I discovered that those of the thirteen modern US presidents, from Franklin Roosevelt to Barack Obama, all had the natal Sun (the planet most associated with ones basic identity) making an aspect (certain designated degrees between two planets) to their natal Neptune. This was surprising since I would have thought that politicians, particularly those aspiring to the presidency, would have an overwhelming emphasis on the Sun-Mars aspect, but not on the Sun-Neptune aspect. What I discovered in my research was that good politicians are not warriors (Sun-Mars) per se who use the techniques of warfare to muscle their way through adversity. Rather, they are good actors (Sun-Neptune) who are essentially chameleons (Sun-Neptune) operating in the foggy (Neptune) realm of subtlety (Neptune) and seduction, using their sensitivity (Neptune) and charm (Neptune) to serve their intuitive (Neptune) sides to try to achieve their goals. It became apparent that a good politician is excellent at assuming different roles in order to fit a given political situation and move his agenda forward. The Sun in aspect to Neptune is not unusual, but there is no aggregate population that has 100 percent of its members with this aspect like the modern presidents. I was intrigued with this occurrence and thus set out to research their individual biographies to see just how this aspect played out in their lives. After all, it seemed to be almost a prerequisite for being elected to the modern Oval Office.

Book Synopsis Dreams from My Father by : Barack Obama
Download or read book Dreams from My Father written by Barack Obama and published by Crown. This book was released on 2007-01-09 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ONE OF ESSENCE’S 50 MOST IMPACTFUL BLACK BOOKS OF THE PAST 50 YEARS In this iconic memoir of his early days, Barack Obama “guides us straight to the intersection of the most serious questions of identity, class, and race” (The Washington Post Book World). “Quite extraordinary.”—Toni Morrison In this lyrical, unsentimental, and compelling memoir, the son of a black African father and a white American mother searches for a workable meaning to his life as a black American. It begins in New York, where Barack Obama learns that his father—a figure he knows more as a myth than as a man—has been killed in a car accident. This sudden death inspires an emotional odyssey—first to a small town in Kansas, from which he retraces the migration of his mother’s family to Hawaii, and then to Kenya, where he meets the African side of his family, confronts the bitter truth of his father’s life, and at last reconciles his divided inheritance. Praise for Dreams from My Father “Beautifully crafted . . . moving and candid . . . This book belongs on the shelf beside works like James McBride’s The Color of Water and Gregory Howard Williams’s Life on the Color Line as a tale of living astride America’s racial categories.”—Scott Turow “Provocative . . . Persuasively describes the phenomenon of belonging to two different worlds, and thus belonging to neither.”—The New York Times Book Review “Obama’s writing is incisive yet forgiving. This is a book worth savoring.”—Alex Kotlowitz, author of There Are No Children Here “One of the most powerful books of self-discovery I’ve ever read, all the more so for its illuminating insights into the problems not only of race, class, and color, but of culture and ethnicity. It is also beautifully written, skillfully layered, and paced like a good novel.”—Charlayne Hunter-Gault, author of In My Place “Dreams from My Father is an exquisite, sensitive study of this wonderful young author’s journey into adulthood, his search for community and his place in it, his quest for an understanding of his roots, and his discovery of the poetry of human life. Perceptive and wise, this book will tell you something about yourself whether you are black or white.”—Marian Wright Edelman

Book Synopsis Debating the Obama Presidency by : Steven E. Schier
Download or read book Debating the Obama Presidency written by Steven E. Schier and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to present both the arguments for and against Barack Obama’s presidency and its policies. In it, prominent political scientists and Washington think tank scholars address Obama’s domestic, economic and foreign policies and his political legacy. Contrasting perspectives assess the consequences of the large aspirations of the Obama presidency and the political and policy challenges Obama encountered in the pursuit of those aspirations. Barack Obama’s project in the White House involved installing lasting changes in national policy and politics. Institutionally, the Obama administration sought to preserve control of Congress through maintenance of reliable partisan Democratic majorities, and enhance influence over the federal courts through a steady stream of liberal judicial appointees. The administration sought increased autonomy over the executive branch by a reorganizations spawned by a national economic crisis and an ambitious domestic policy agenda. Politically, the Obama administration sought the entrenchment of consistent Democratic electoral majorities. Such large ambitions have generated enduring controversies surrounding his presidency, controversies that receive a full airing and debate in this volume. Contributions by Alan I.

Download or read book The Obama Victory written by Kate Kenski and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-07-16 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barack Obama's stunning victory in the 2008 presidential election will go down as one of the more pivotal in American history. Given America's legacy of racism, how could a relatively untested first-term senator with an African father defeat some of the giants of American politics? In The Obama Victory, Kate Kenski, Bruce Hardy, and Kathleen Hall Jamieson draw upon the best voter data available, The National Annenberg Election Survey, as well as interviews with key advisors to each campaign, to illuminate how media, money, and messages shaped the 2008 election. They explain how both sides worked the media to reinforce or combat images of McCain as too old and Obama as not ready; how Obama used a very effective rough-and-tumble radio and cable campaign that was largely unnoticed by the mainstream media; how the Vice Presidential nominees impacted the campaign; how McCain's age and Obama's race affected the final vote, and much more. Briskly written and filled with surprising insights, The Obama Victory goes beyond opinion to offer the most authoritative account available of precisely how and why Obama won the presidency.
Book Synopsis The Riddle of Barack Obama by : Avner Falk
Download or read book The Riddle of Barack Obama written by Avner Falk and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An internationally noted clinical psychologist offers readers the first psychological biography of Barack Obama. The Riddle of Barack Obama: A Psychobiography is the first complete psychological biography of President Barack Obama written by a professional clinical psychologist. Covering Obama's life to date, as well as the lives of his parents, grandparents, and other ancestors, this fascinating volume illuminates the personal, professional, political, emotional, intellectual, and creative aspects of Obama's personality, as well as the motives—conscious and unconscious—for his beliefs and actions. Dr. Avner Falk draws on hundreds of biographies, newspaper and magazine articles, interviews, investigative reports, and more, using psychoanalytic models developed by Sigmund Freud, Donald Winnicott, Peter Blos, Heinz Kohut, and Schiffer to probe Obama's psychological development. Examining every facet of the president's biography, he delves into his earliest feelings of abandonment and helplessness, his inner conflicts, his protective relationship with his mother, his ambivalent identification with his father, and his quest for identity. Perhaps most intriguingly, Dr. Falk explores the psychological origins of Obama's "fierce ambitions" and the ingredients of his charisma.

Book excerpt: A riveting, deeply personal account of history in the making—from the president who inspired us to believe in the power of democracy #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NAACP IMAGE AWARD NOMINEE • NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW AND PEOPLE NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The Washington Post • Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times • NPR • The Guardian • Slate • Vox • The Economist • Marie Claire In the stirring first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in strikingly personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency—a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil. Obama takes readers on a compelling journey from his earliest political aspirations to the pivotal Iowa caucus victory that demonstrated the power of grassroots activism to the watershed night of November 4, 2008, when he was elected 44th president of the United States, becoming the first African American to hold the nation’s highest office. Reflecting on the presidency, he offers a unique and thoughtful exploration of both the awesome reach and the limits of presidential power, as well as singular insights into the dynamics of U.S. partisan politics and international diplomacy. Obama brings readers inside the Oval Office and the White House Situation Room, and to Moscow, Cairo, Beijing, and points beyond. We are privy to his thoughts as he assembles his cabinet, wrestles with a global financial crisis, takes the measure of Vladimir Putin, overcomes seemingly insurmountable odds to secure passage of the Affordable Care Act, clashes with generals about U.S. strategy in Afghanistan, tackles Wall Street reform, responds to the devastating Deepwater Horizon blowout, and authorizes Operation Neptune’s Spear, which leads to the death of Osama bin Laden. A Promised Land is extraordinarily intimate and introspective—the story of one man’s bet with history, the faith of a community organizer tested on the world stage. Obama is candid about the balancing act of running for office as a Black American, bearing the expectations of a generation buoyed by messages of “hope and change,” and meeting the moral challenges of high-stakes decision-making. He is frank about the forces that opposed him at home and abroad, open about how living in the White House affected his wife and daughters, and unafraid to reveal self-doubt and disappointment. Yet he never wavers from his belief that inside the great, ongoing American experiment, progress is always possible. This beautifully written and powerful book captures Barack Obama’s conviction that democracy is not a gift from on high but something founded on empathy and common understanding and built together, day by day.
Book Synopsis The Triumphs of a Black President In a White America by : Nicholas A. Owoyemi
Download or read book The Triumphs of a Black President In a White America written by Nicholas A. Owoyemi and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-09-19 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The protagonist in this book is President Barack Obama. The antagonist is White America. Unlike many contemporary works of literature on race relations and politics, this book shuns the myopic views embedded in the ideological leanings of the right and left political spectrum. It underlines the disquietude of a wary White America that viewed a black presidency as a risky experiment. It explains how Republicans fiercely and relentlessly opposed Barack Obama and contemptuously plotted the downfall of his administration unsuccessfully. The book discusses the unique relationship of Barack Obama and Donald Trump, compares both personalities and underscores the social anxiety that propelled the election of Donald Trump to succeed Barack Obama. It also answers the question that many Americans have asked: Is President Donald Trump a racist? Here are some other intriguing excerpts from the book: "It is no secret that the United States has never been an "honest broker" when it comes to the actions of the Israeli government in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict." "In rather negative terms, the "red line" syndrome in Syria had indelibly marked President Obama's foreign policy in the eyes of the world ..." "The fact is that more whites have enrolled in Obamacare than blacks and Latinos put together." "The irrational invasion of Iraq and subsequent dismantling of its once-formidable military by the United States shifted the military dynamic in the area." "In 2016, gun lobbyists gave $5,900,000 to Republicans and $106,000 to Democrats during the election cycle."
