This book was released on 2014-01-18 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: કાલી પુરીનો વજનવિરોધી જંગ તો નાનપણથી ચાલતો રહ્યો છે. લડીલડીને, ડાયેટ કરીકરીને આજે એ ખુદને સંતોષ થાય એટલા વજન પર પહોંચી છે. અહીં જે ડાયેટ્સ છે, એ કાલીની જીવનકથનીના પ્રકરણ જેવા છે. બોલીવુડ બીટ્સ પર સૂર્યનમસ્કાર, કઠિન કોકોનટ વૉટરડાયેટ, બુલમિયાની કાળી કથની, જાતે ધડી કાઢેલો શૅમ્પેઇન ડાયેટ પ્લાન... નિખાલસભાવે લખાયેલાં આ પુસ્તકમાં કાલીએ વેઇટગેઇન અને વેઇટલૉસ સાથે સંકળાયેલી તમામ સારી-નરસી બાબતોને આવરી લીધી છે. વાચકને એણે માત્ર શું કરવું જોઈએ, એટલું જ નહીં, પણ કેવી રીતે કરવું જોઈએ, એ કહ્યું છે, કિલો બાય કિલો! વજન ગુમાવીને નવું જીવન મેળવનારની આ કથા છે. એ વાંચીને તમને લાગશે કે તમે પણ આ કરી શકો. શરીરને જળોની જેમ ચોંટી પડેલા પેલા છેલ્લા ત્રણ કિલો ઉતારવાના હોય કે કોઈ સોહામણાં સપનાંને સાકાર કરવા માટે દોટ લગાવવાની હોય, ધારો તો તમે આ બધું જ કરી શકો છો.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since his first publication in 1942, Luis Leal has likely done more than any other writer or scholar to foster a critical appreciation of Mexican, Chicano, and Latin American literature and culture. This volume, bringing together a representative selection of Leal’s writings from the past sixty years, is at once a wide-ranging introduction to the most influential scholar of Latino literature and a critical history of the field as it emerged and developed through the twentieth century. Instrumental in establishing Mexican literary studies in the United States, Leal’s writings on the topic are especially instructive, ranging from essays on the significance of symbolism, culture, and history in early Chicano literature to studies of the more recent use of magical realism and of individual New Mexican, Tejano, and Mexican authors such as Juan Rulfo, Carlos Fuentes, José Montoya, and Mariano Azuela. Clearly and cogently written, these writings bring to bear an encyclopedic knowledge, a deep understanding of history and politics, and an unparalleled command of the aesthetics of storytelling, from folklore to theory. This collection affords readers the opportunity to consider—or reconsider—Latino literature under the deft guidance of its greatest reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cody Pomeray had a gift for looking inside a person's soul with just a glance. This ability served him well, as the crook blew through the early 1980s, finding marks and picking them clean. But one fateful night, he targeted the wrong man... and was sentenced to the most savage prison in California. Pomeray would have been beaten to death on his first day if not for the intervention of Barnaby Creed, the most powerful crime lord in the Southland. Now five years later, Pomeray's out on parole, robbed of his special ability, and tasked with doing Creed "a little favor." He has no idea he's just stepped into a long con, and this time... he's the mark. Includes Duane Swierczynski's first issue script as a bonus feature!

Download or read book Mexican Ballads, Chicano Poems written by José E. Limón and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1992-07-24 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mexican Ballads, Chicano Poems combines literary theory with the personal engagement of a prominent Chicano scholar. Recalling his experiences as a student in Texas, José Limón examines the politically motivated Chicano poetry of the 60s and 70s. He bases his analyses on Harold Bloom's theories of literary influence but takes Bloom into the socio-political realm. Limón shows how Chicano poetry is nourished by the oral tradition of the Mexican corrido, or master ballad, which was a vital part of artistic and political life along the Mexican-U.S. border from 1890 to 1930. Limón's use of Bloom, as well as of Marxist critics Raymond Williams and Fredric Jameson, brings Chicano literature into the arena of contemporary literary theory. By focusing on an important but little-studied poetic tradition, his book challenges our ideas of the American canon and extends the reach of Hispanists and folklorists as well.

Download or read book Identity Economics written by George A. Akerlof and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-21 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How identity influences the economic choices we make Identity Economics provides an important and compelling new way to understand human behavior, revealing how our identities—and not just economic incentives—influence our decisions. In 1995, economist Rachel Kranton wrote future Nobel Prize-winner George Akerlof a letter insisting that his most recent paper was wrong. Identity, she argued, was the missing element that would help to explain why people—facing the same economic circumstances—would make different choices. This was the beginning of a fourteen-year collaboration—and of Identity Economics. The authors explain how our conception of who we are and who we want to be may shape our economic lives more than any other factor, affecting how hard we work, and how we learn, spend, and save. Identity economics is a new way to understand people's decisions—at work, at school, and at home. With it, we can better appreciate why incentives like stock options work or don't; why some schools succeed and others don't; why some cities and towns don't invest in their futures—and much, much more. Identity Economics bridges a critical gap in the social sciences. It brings identity and norms to economics. People's notions of what is proper, and what is forbidden, and for whom, are fundamental to how hard they work, and how they learn, spend, and save. Thus people's identity—their conception of who they are, and of who they choose to be—may be the most important factor affecting their economic lives. And the limits placed by society on people's identity can also be crucial determinants of their economic well-being.
