Book Synopsis Basic Black With Pearls by : Helen Weinzweig
Download or read book Basic Black With Pearls written by Helen Weinzweig and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliant, lost feminist classic that is equal parts domestic drama and international intrigue. Shirley and Coenraad’s affair has been going on for decades, but her longing for him is as desperate as ever. She is a Toronto housewife; he works for an international organization known only as the Agency. Their rendezvous take place in Tangier, in Hong Kong, in Rome and are arranged by an intricate code based on notes slipped into issues of National Geographic. He recognizes her by her costume: a respectable black dress and string of pearls; his appearance, however, is changeable. But something has happened, the code has been discovered, and Coenraad sends Shirley (who prefers to be known as “Lola Montez”) to Toronto, the last place she wants to go. There the trail leads her through the sites of her impoverished immigrant childhood and sends her, finally, to her own house, where she discards her pearls and trades in her basic black for a dress of vibrant multicolored silk. Helen Weinzweig published her first novel when she was fifty-eight. Basic Black with Pearls, her second, won the Toronto Book Award and has since come to be recognized as a feminist landmark. Here Weinzweig imbues the formal inventiveness of the nouveau roman with psychological poignancy and surprising humor to tell a story of simultaneous dissolution and discovery.

Book Synopsis Pearls from the Practice of Life by : John Chuck
Download or read book Pearls from the Practice of Life written by John Chuck and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-08 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recognition of a human condition that spans the entire spectrum from wonderful to miserable, and with a strong preference for the wonderful, Dr. John Chuck draws on over 30 years of experience as a family physician, wellness leader, and teacher to create this guide to help you struggle less, thrive more, and live your best life, one filled with joy and meaning. His "pearls" of insight and wisdom will help you to better understand our shared predicament as human beings, namely our suffering and mortality, and leverage evidence-based habits to meet your hierarchy of needs for survival, safety, love and belonging, esteem, and self-actualization in the one very short life you have been given. Just as mollusks make pearls in response to irritants, you can use your struggles to create a new and improved version of yourself. In the pages of Pearls, you will find the makings of that metamorphosis. The book features 69 chapters divided into six parts. Read start to finish, it delivers a comprehensive message of hope and healing that begins with birth and ends with death. At the same time, each chapter is written so that it can stand alone as an inspirational message to be revisited or shared with others in need of perspective and encouragement. In Part I, "First Things First," he reviews the roles that nature and nurture play in setting our floors and ceilings, proposes a new twist on the age-old pursuit of happiness and achievement, shares a method for strategic winning, highlights the important role of connection to others, self, and a higher power, and offers a solution to the decision paralysis and self-consciousness that often hinder our progress. Part II, "The Work World," outlines the economic fundamentals of life and the attitudes and actions that maximize one's opportunities for paid employment and success in the workplace. Part III, "Lofty Goals," describes a life that rises above self, the pedestrian and mundane, to pursue aspirational team-based initiatives that lift up and transform entire communities and societies. In Part IV, "Getting Things Done," he writes about the many drivers of consistent productivity, including harnessing realms of energy, identifying and successfully navigating the chapters of life, exercising servant leadership, and engaging the emotions and intellect that drive human decisions and practices. Part V, "Struggles," focuses on the common challenges that impede our ability to claim joy and meaning and the adaptive behaviors that help us to turn our challenges into opportunities for growth. The book concludes with Part VI, "Doctor Stuff," Dr. Chuck's summary of the inescapable aging processes and degenerative changes that define our morbidity and mortality, and his endorsement of the perspectives, intentions, and habits that help us mitigate the sting of death and the finality of the grave.
Download or read book Uncaring written by Robert Pearl and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2021-05-18 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctors are taught how to cure people. But they don’t always know how to care for them. Hardly anyone is happy with American healthcare these days. Patients are getting sicker and going bankrupt from medical bills. Doctors are burning out and making dangerous mistakes. Both parties blame our nation’s outdated and dysfunctional healthcare system. But that’s only part of the problem. In this important and timely book, Dr. Robert Pearl shines a light on the unseen and often toxic culture of medicine. Today’s physicians have a surprising disdain for technology, an unhealthy obsession with status, and an increasingly complicated relationship with their patients. All of this can be traced back to their earliest experiences in medical school, where doctors inherit a set of norms, beliefs, and expectations that shape almost every decision they make, with profound consequences for the rest of us. Uncaring draws an original and revealing portrait of what it’s actually like to be a doctor. It illuminates the complex and intimidating world of medicine for readers, and in the end offers a clear plan to save American healthcare.

Download or read book Jewels written by Victoria Finlay and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2007-08-14 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, precious stones have inspired passions and poetry, quests and curses, sacred writings and unsacred actions. In this scintillating book, journalist Victoria Finlay embarks on her own globe-circling search for the real stories behind some of the gems we prize most. Blending adventure travel, geology, exciting new research, and her own irresistible charm, Finlay has fashioned a treasure hunt for some of the most valuable, glamorous, and mysterious substances on earth. With the same intense curiosity and narrative flair she displayed in her widely-praised book Color, Finlay journeys from the underground opal churches of outback Australia to the once pearl-rich rivers of Scotland; from the peridot mines on an Apache reservation in Arizona to the remote ruby mines in the mountains of northern Burma. She risks confronting scorpions to crawl through Cleopatra’s long-deserted emerald mines, tries her hand at gem cutting in the dusty Sri Lankan city where Marco Polo bartered for sapphires, and investigates a rumor that fifty years ago most of the world’s amber was mined by prisoners in a Soviet gulag. Jewels is a unique and often exhilarating voyage through history, across cultures, deep into the earth’s mantle, and up to the glittering heights of fame, power, and wealth. From the fabled curse of the Hope Diamond, to the disturbing truths about how pearls are cultured, to the peasants who were once executed for carrying amber to the centuries-old quest by magicians and scientists to make a perfect diamond, Jewels tells dazzling stories with a wonderment and brilliance truly worthy of its subjects.
Book Synopsis A Pearl in the Storm by : Tori Murden McClure
Download or read book A Pearl in the Storm written by Tori Murden McClure and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-04-07 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the end," writes Tori McClure, "I know I rowed across the Atlantic to find my heart, but in the beginning, I wasn't aware that it was missing." During June 1998, Tori McClure set out to row across the Atlantic Ocean by herself in a twenty-three-foot plywood boat with no motor or sail. Within days she lost all communication with shore, but nevertheless she decided to keep going. Not only did she lose the sound of a friendly voice, she lost updates on the location of the Gulf Stream and on the weather. Unfortunately for Tori, 1998 is still on record as the worst hurricane season in the North Atlantic. In deep solitude and perilous conditions, she was nonetheless determined to prove what one person with a mission can do. When she was finally brought to her knees by a series of violent storms that nearly killed her, she had to signal for help and go home in what felt like complete disgrace. Back in Kentucky, however, Tori's life began to change in unexpected ways. She fell in love. At the age of thirty-five, she embarked on a serious relationship for the first time, making her feel even more vulnerable than sitting alone in a tiny boat in the middle of the Atlantic. She went to work for Muhammad Ali, who told her that she did not want to be known as the woman who "almost" rowed across the Atlantic Ocean. And she knew that he was right. In this thrilling story of high adventure and romantic quest, Tori McClure discovers through her favorite way—the hard way—that the most important thing in life is not to prove you are superhuman but to fully to embrace your own humanity. With a wry sense of humor and a strong voice, she gives us a true memoir of an explorer who maps her world with rare emotional honesty.

Book excerpt: Shakuntala Bharvani s story of a thirty-six-year-old woman, widowed at an early age and a Reader in English, presents a protagonist in whom are blended innocence and naivete with an urge for independence and feminist ideas. Sangeeta Chainani is banished by her aristrocratic Sindhi family to the quiet ashram of Dukh Door, a Gandhian haven of simple living and high thinking, where, they hope, she will pursue her doctoral dissertation on Dorothy Richardson and forget her love affair with Iqbal, a divorced Muslim dentist. But matters other than literature and the quiet life keep intruding her childhood memories, the stories of Sind and its folk tales narrated to her by elderly relations as Bharvani presents a cross-section of Indian society with a touch of satire and humour.
