Book Synopsis The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness by : Paula Poundstone
Download or read book The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness written by Paula Poundstone and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A remarkable journey. I laughed. I cried. I got another cat.” —Lily Tomlin “Paula Poundstone is the funniest human being I have ever known.” —Peter Sagal, host of Wait Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me! and author of The Book of Vice “Is there a secret to happiness?” asks comedian Paula Poundstone. "I don’t know how or why anyone would keep it a secret. It seems rather cruel, really . . . Where could it be? Is it deceptively simple? Does it melt at a certain temperature? Can you buy it? Must you suffer for it before or after?” In her wildly and wisely observed book, the comedy legend takes on that most inalienable of rights—the pursuit of happiness. Offering herself up as a human guinea pig in a series of thoroughly unscientific experiments, Poundstone tries out a different get-happy hypothesis in each chapter of her data-driven search. She gets in shape with taekwondo. She drives fast behind the wheel of a Lamborghini. She communes with nature while camping with her daughter, and commits to getting her house organized (twice!). Swing dancing? Meditation? Volunteering? Does any of it bring her happiness? You may be laughing too hard to care. The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness is both a story of jumping into new experiences with both feet and a surprisingly poignant tale of a single working mother of three children (not to mention dozens of cats, a dog, a bearded dragon lizard, a lop-eared bunny, and one ant left from her ant farm) who is just trying to keep smiling while living a busy life. The queen of the skepticism-fueled rant, Paula Poundstone stands alone in her talent for bursting bubbles and slaying sacred cows. Like George Carlin, Steve Martin, and David Sedaris, she is a master of her craft, and her comedic brilliance is served up in abundance in this book. As author and humorist Roy Blount Jr. notes, “Paula Poundstone deserves to be happy. Nobody deserves to be this funny.”

Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of Sondheim Studies by : Robert Gordon
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Sondheim Studies written by Robert Gordon and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Sondheim Studies offers a series of cutting-edge essays on the most important and compelling topics in the growing field of Sondheim Studies. Focusing on broad groups of issues relating to the music and the production of Sondheim works, rather than on biographical questions about the composer himself, the handbook represents a cross-disciplinary introduction to comprehending Sondheim in musicological, theatrical, and socio-cultural terms. This collection of never-before published essays addresses issues of artistic method and musico-dramaturgical form, while at the same time offering close readings of individual shows from a variety of analytical perspectives. The handbook is arranged into six broad sections: issues of intertextuality and authorship; Sondheim's pioneering work in developing the non-linear form of the concept musical; the production history of Sondheim's work; his writing for film and television; his exploitation and deployment of a wide range of musical genres; and how interpretation through key critical lenses (including sociology, history, and feminist and queer theory) establishes his position in a broader cultural context.
Download or read book Confrontation! written by R. O. Gunther and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-05-13 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles and King have been convinced that their purpose in life now was more important than their past endeavors to bring peace and safety to the world. Those adventures have been vividly told in our previous three publications. Please see the Preface. It had been a year since the publishing of their third book—The Sharp Sword. The accurate research contained therein sharply concluded: that most ancient book in the world, The Bible—all though written by men, must have been inspired by God. Now in this publication, Confrontation, it was found that The Sharp Sword had been having a wide circulation. Organizations had been requesting more information and personal interviews: religious organizations inquired; philosophic groups; atheistic and agnostic believers; even a mythological society had responded. Therefore Confrontation with the world’s religious-philosophic communities became their determination. Their conclusions were of earthshaking importance. They were confident that the Bible clearly discloses God’s purpose in creating and also his activity throughout history and down to this eventful period in which we live. Can these conclusions be true—really? An academic delving into the Bible’s contents; a non emotional, non prejudiced study uncovers real reality which overrides the present superficial reality is that smothering daily life.
Download or read book A Climate Of Change written by Kit Adam and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-12-26 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in the 1980s and traversing through the following decade, A Climate of Change tells the story of two young men as they fall in love and develop friendship. Along the way, a dark past casts a constant shadow over not only their love but of those around them: institutional child abuse. With the love and support of Robbie, Simon’s family deals with the trauma, but despite what they hope is a resolution, they cannot defeat the power of one of the world’s largest religious organizations. A tale that explores young love, chasing the dream, and a series of tragic losses, A Climate of Change is told through the eyes three of the characters—Robbie, then Simon, and also Cal. It is an observation of young life, the landscape, the notion of relationships, and the disturbing horror of manipulation of young boys by those they trusted. From the beaches of southern Australia to the towns and countrysides of England, Scotland, Canada, Europe, and back to the eastern coast of Australia, these young men mature and grow stronger. Can lives be rebuilt and restored? Can love triumph over tragedy?

Download or read book Reading Comics written by Mila Bongco and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study explores how the definition of the medium, as well as its language, readership, genre conventions, and marketing and distribution strategies, have kept comic books within the realm of popular culture. Since comics have been studied mostly in relation to mass media and its influence on society, there is a void in the analysis of the critical issues related to comics as a distinct genre and art form. By focusing on comics as narratives and investigating their formal and structural aspects, as well as the unique reading process they demand, this study presents a unique contribution to the current literature on comics, and helps clarify concepts and definitions useful in studying the medium. (Ph.D. dissertation, University of Alberta, 1995; revised with new preface, bibliography, and index)
