Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making decisions is something we do all the time. We decide what we’re going to wear for the day, what we’re going to eat and make so many other large and small decisions from moment to moment. Decision-making is how we survive, but just because we do already do it doesn’t necessarily mean we have the skills or fortitude to Make Better Decisions. Sound decisions that are aligned with our values, hopes, dreams, and aspirations require more than a rote response. What we fail to understand are the fundamentals of making the right decision for ourselves, and in some cases, those who depend on us for some of life’s most important decisions. Make Better Decisions provides a road map to shoring up our decision-making skills and helping us to follow a path that aligns with where we want to go. Without these crucial skills, we can inadvertently sabotage our efforts and create roadblocks to our success. Here is a sampling of what you’ll find in this book: · How to unlearn bad decision-making skills · Why it’s important to not make rash decisions · Creating realistic deadlines for yourself · How to create and weigh better options · When to see help from an outside source · How to put what you’ve learned into practice If you’re ready to take your decision-making skills to the next level, read Make Better Decisions today!

Book Synopsis Dog Whistles, Walk-Backs, and Washington Handshakes by : Chuck McCutcheon
Download or read book Dog Whistles, Walk-Backs, and Washington Handshakes written by Chuck McCutcheon and published by ForeEdge from University Press of New England. This book was released on 2014-09-02 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the amusement of the pundits and the regret of the electorate, our modern political jargon has become even more brazenly two-faced and obfuscatory than ever. Where once we had Muckrakers, now we have Bed-Wetters. Where Blue Dogs once slept peaceably in the sun, Attack Dogs now roam the land. During election season--a near constant these days--the coded rhetoric of candidates and their spin doctors, and the deliberately meaningless but toxic semiotics of the wing nuts and backbenchers, reach near-Orwellian levels of self-satisfaction, vitriol, and deceit. The average NPR or talk radio listener, MSNBC or Fox News viewer, or blameless New York Times or Wall Street Journal reader is likely to be perplexed, nonplussed, and lulled into a state of apathetic resignation and civic somnolence by the rapid-fire incomprehensibility of political pronouncement and commentary--which is, frankly, putting us exactly where the pundits want us. Dog Whistles, Walk-Backs, and Washington Handshakes is a tonic and a corrective. It is a reference and field guide to the language of politics by two veteran observers that not only defines terms and phrases but also explains their history and etymology, describes who uses them against whom, and why, and reveals the most telling, infamous, amusing, and shocking examples of their recent use. It is a handbook of lexicography for the Wonkette and This Town generation, a sleeker, more modern Safire's Political Dictionary, and a concise, pointed, bipartisan guide to the lies, obfuscations, and helical constructions of modern American political language, as practiced by real-life versions of the characters on House of Cards.

Book Synopsis Eminent Parliamentarians by : Philip Norton
Download or read book Eminent Parliamentarians written by Philip Norton and published by Biteback Publishing. This book was released on 2012-10-22 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To celebrate the centenary of the 1911 Parliament Act, John Bercow, Speaker of the House of Commons, instigated a series of public lectures in which current parliamentarians assessed the careers and characters of parliamentary giants. The result was a sequence of fascinating appraisals covering a distinguished but eclectic array of politicians who made a name for themselves not only in the House of Commons but also throughout the country. The subjects of the lectures came from diverse backgrounds, advocated very different political philosophies and, indeed, some make surprising bedfellows. But they all had one thing in common: driven by a set of particular beliefs, they were prepared to do whatever was necessary in pursuit of their goals. From Nicholas Soames's warm, familial tribute to his grandfather Winston Churchill to Neil Kinnock's account of an affectionate - though sometimes fraught - relationship with Michael Foot, the roll-call of both lecturers and subjects is outstanding. With his subject sitting in the audience, Tristram Hunt delivers the lecture on Tony Benn; Shirley Williams looks at the life of Nancy Astor, the first woman to take her seat in Parliament; Philip Norton and Peter Tapsell tackle the towering figures of Enoch Powell and F. E. Smith; as an authority on his subject, Kenneth Morgan discusses David Lloyd George, while fellow historian Gordon Marsden speaks on Aneurin Bevan; Douglas Hurd reflects on the life of Iain Macleod; and Andrew Adonis and John Whittingdale both provide an insider's insight into the parliamentary lives of Roy Jenkins and Margaret Thatcher. With a foreword by John Bercow and an introduction by Philip Norton, this is an impressive collection of lectures delivered by expert speakers on the most eminent of parliamentarians.
Book Synopsis The House of Commons by : Emma Crewe
Download or read book The House of Commons written by Emma Crewe and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-04-23 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The House of Commons is one of Britain's mysterious institutions: constantly in the news yet always opaque. In this ground-breaking anthropological study of the world's most famous parliament, Emma Crewe reveals the hidden mechanisms of parliamentary democracy. Examining the work of Members of Parliament – including neglected areas such as constituencies and committees – this book provides unique insights into the actual lives and working relationships of parliamentarians. 'Why do the public loathe politicians but often love their own MP?' the author asks. The antagonistic façade of politics irritates the public who tend to be unaware that, backstage, democracy relies on MPs consulting, compromising and cooperating across political parties far more than is publicly admitted. As the book shows, this is only one of myriad contradictions in the labyrinths of power. Based on unprecedented access and two years of interviews and research in the Palace of Westminster and MPs' constituencies, The House of Commons: An Anthropology of MPs at Work challenges the existing scholarship on political institutions and party politics. Moving beyond the narrow confines of rational choice theory and new institutionalism, Emma Crewe presents a radical alternative to the study of British politics by demonstrating that all of its processes hinge on culture, ritual and social relations. A must-read for anyone interested in political anthropology, politics, or the Westminster model.

Book Synopsis Executive Leadership and Legislative Assemblies by : Nicholas D. J. Baldwin
Download or read book Executive Leadership and Legislative Assemblies written by Nicholas D. J. Baldwin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between a head of government (head of the executive branch) and a nation's parliament or legislative assembly (the legislative branch) has long been the focus for comment and analysis - for example, has the prime minister in the United Kingdom come to a position of dominance at the expense of the power of parliament? Does the American president stand head and shoulders above Congress? Is a French president master of the system? Need the Russian president pay attention to the Duma? What of the position in other parliamentary and presidential systems? In this book, Baldwin seeks to provide answers, and does so by drawing upon the knowledge and expertise of an international group of scholars whose essays advance our knowledge of the subject.

Book Synopsis The French Parliament and the European Union by : Olivier Rozenberg
Download or read book The French Parliament and the European Union written by Olivier Rozenberg and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the European Union has changed the French Parliament since 1992. It supports the view that the institutional adaptation of both assemblies to European affairs is largely superficial as it lacks a genuine involvement from members of parliament. Nevertheless, the role of backbenchers has changed in the context of European integration. New ways of behaving, thinking and representing have emerged. From specialized representatives to constituency members, from presidential aspirants to Eurosceptic sovereigntists, French national parliamentarians have adapted differently to the EU. Far beyond the sole scrutiny of European draft legislation, the book provides a comprehensive map of this changing environment. It supports the view that the process has been driven by the search for day-to-day emotional gratifications rather than utilitarian strategies.
