Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Rose explores her myriad inspirations in this collection of twenty-five fashionable knitting projects that show the potential in beautiful yarn . . . marvelous.” —Library Journal Cirilia Rose is the epitome of the new knitwear designer—young, educated, curious, and excited to share her passion for all ideas knit and purl. Her attitude toward curating her own collection of designs is informed as much by travel, cultural history, and tried-and-true sourcebooks as it is by modern media and technology. In Magpies, Homebodies, and Nomads, Rose takes readers behind the scenes of her design process, showing them how she curates and organizes ideas and translates them into knitwear designs. Through twenty-five projects that fall into three categories—Magpies (accessories for the small amounts of precious yarns that knitters inevitably collect), Homebodies (garments for time spent close to home), and Nomads (garments to wear when venturing out into the world)—Rose shares her modern aesthetic and invites readers to develop their own. “So not only do we have twenty-five patterns—many of them timeless and some of them quirky—we also have a lot of attentive commentary on color selection, styling tips, and useful info on substituting yarns. This is one new book that I would highly recommend. Not only for the patterns, but especially for the spirit of the book and the thoughtful way Cirilia Rose approaches her knitting and explains her process.” —Knit and Tonic “This is a gem of a book.” —Kangath Knits “This latitude that Rose has given herself to combine disparate elements makes all her designs fresh, hip and youthful.” —My Central Jersey

Download or read book Trans Bodies, Trans Selves written by Laura Erickson-Schroth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-05-12 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is no one way to be transgender. Transgender and gender non-conforming people have many different ways of understanding their gender identities. Only recently have sex and gender been thought of as separate concepts, and we have learned that sex (traditionally thought of as physical or biological) is as variable as gender (traditionally thought of as social). While trans people share many common experiences, there is immense diversity within trans communities. There are an estimated 700,000 transgendered individuals in the US and 15 million worldwide. Even still, there's been a notable lack of organized information for this sizable group. Trans Bodies, Trans Selves is a revolutionary resource-a comprehensive, reader-friendly guide for transgender people, with each chapter written by transgender or genderqueer authors. Inspired by Our Bodies, Ourselves, the classic and powerful compendium written for and by women, Trans Bodies, Trans Selves is widely accessible to the transgender population, providing authoritative information in an inclusive and respectful way and representing the collective knowledge base of dozens of influential experts. Each chapter takes the reader through an important transgender issue, such as race, religion, employment, medical and surgical transition, mental health topics, relationships, sexuality, parenthood, arts and culture, and many more. Anonymous quotes and testimonials from transgender people who have been surveyed about their experiences are woven throughout, adding compelling, personal voices to every page. In this unique way, hundreds of viewpoints from throughout the community have united to create this strong and pioneering book. It is a welcoming place for transgender and gender-questioning people, their partners and families, students, professors, guidance counselors, and others to look for up-to-date information on transgender life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fresh Fruit, Broken Bodies provides an intimate examination of the everyday lives, suffering, and resistance of Mexican migrants in our contemporary food system. Seth Holmes, an anthropologist and MD in the mold of Paul Farmer and Didier Fassin, shows how market forces, anti-immigrant sentiment, and racism undermine health and health care. Holmes was invited to trek with his companions clandestinely through the desert into Arizona and was jailed with them before they were deported. He lived with Indigenous families in the mountains of Oaxaca and in farm labor camps in the United States, planted and harvested corn, picked strawberries, and accompanied sick workers to clinics and hospitals. This “embodied anthropology” deepens our theoretical understanding of the ways in which social inequities come to be perceived as normal and natural in society and in health care. In a substantive new epilogue, Holmes and Indigenous Oaxacan scholar Jorge Ramirez-Lopez provide a current examination of the challenges facing farmworkers and the lives and resistance of the protagonists featured in the book.

This book was released on 2020 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume an international team of scholars address the theme of books as sacred beings from an impressively diverse range of primary material and perspectives. Yet, as a group, they meld to engage and advance previous research to solidify the conclusion that human cultures, especially religious groups, often ritualize bodies as sacred books and books as divine beings. The studies collected here not only increase the range of examples of this phenomenon. They also show the wide variety of ways in which the identity of books, bodies and beings gets both ritualized and theorized. The articles are bracketed by an introduction to the collection, and then by a concluding essay that extrapolates the theme of books as sacred beings on a more general level.

Download or read book The Wisdom of Your Body written by Hillary L. PhD McBride and published by Brazos Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of us have a complicated relationship with our body. Maybe you've been made to feel ashamed of your body or like it isn't good enough. Maybe your body is riddled with stress, pain, or the effects of trauma. Maybe you think of your body as an accessory to what you believe you really are--your mind. Maybe your experiences with racism, sexism, ableism, heterosexism, ageism, or sizeism have made you believe your body isn't the right kind of body. Whatever the reason, many of us don't feel at home in our bodies. But being disconnected from ourselves as bodies means being disconnected from truly living and from the interconnection that weaves us all together. Psychologist and award-winning researcher Hillary McBride explores the broken and unhealthy ideas we have inherited about our body. Embodiment is the way we are in the world, and our embodiment is heavily influenced by who we have been allowed to be. McBride shows that many of us feel disembodied due to colonization, racism, sexism, and patriarchy--destructive systems that rank certain bodies as less valuable, beautiful, or human than others. Embracing our embodiment can liberate us from these systems. As we come to understand the world around us and the stories we've been told, we see that our perspective of reality often limits how we see and experience ourselves, each other, and what we believe is Sacred. Instead of the body being a problem to overcome, our bodies can be the very place where we feel most alive, the seat of our spirituality and our wisdom. The Wisdom of Your Body offers a compassionate, healthy, and holistic perspective on embodied living. Weaving together illuminating research, stories from her work as a therapist, and deeply personal narratives of healing from a life-threatening eating disorder, a near-fatal car accident, and chronic pain, McBride invites us to reclaim the wisdom of the body and to experience the wholeness that has been there all along. End-of-chapter questions and practices are included.

Book excerpt: Combining fragments of personal history, of memory and imagination, 'Oobanken' builds photographic narratives through constructions and performances. The spaces created are different in character from their wider surroundings, as if confined in an enclave or compound, revealing an attentiveness to what lies beyond the threshold of this self-imposed isolation.00Made while living in Yangon, Myanmar, this series derives from Jerome Ming?s early interest in built structures and interventions. While 'Oobanken' may direct us to inquire about the function of objects and the actions presented, Ming?s photographs also mirror the context in which they are made: that is, during a time of transition, in a place once isolated, a place once suspended in time.

Download or read book What Is A Homebody, How People Become Homebodies, Why Certain People Become Homebodies, And How The Economy Is Affected By Certain People Being Homebodies written by Dr. Harrison Sachs and published by The Epic Books Of Dr. Harrison Sachs. This book was released on 2024-10-15 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essay sheds light on what is a homebody, explicates how people become homebodies, elucidates why certain people become homebodies, and expounds upon how the economy is affected by certain people being homebodies. Succinctly stated, a homebody is a term that refers to a person who prefers to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode. A homebody is at a high probability to be domiciled at his abode for the vast majority of his time. Furthermore, a homebody is also at a high probability to forgo becoming traveler and living a transient life. A homebody is capable of completing the vast majority of his tasks remotely without exiting his abode to do so. A homebody is able to shop for products remotely, is able to procure services remotely, is able to work real private sector jobs based on voluntary demand remotely, is able to confabulate with friends remotely, is able to partake in salubrious hobbies remotely, and is able to be pursuant of following health optimization measures at his abode. A homebody is often keen on adorning his abode to be tailored to his decorating preferences. If an abode is meticulously tailored to a homebody’s decorating preferences and if he derives euphoria from taking a gander at the items on display in his home environment that he is fond of, then it can help him to alleviate stress if doing so can divert his attention away from dwelling on stressors. From the perspective of a homebody, it can be deduced that a real estate property is perceived be far more than just a locale for a homebody to dwell in. As of October of 2024, even though it is estimated that there are about 36,677,592,320 acres of land on planet Earth, a single real estate property is the primary environment of a homebody. A homebody engages in activities, such as leisure activities and career-oriented activities, at his abode since it can be far more convenient for him to do so at his abode than for him to do so at public locales. A homebody engages in activities at his abode also because it can be significantly less noisy to do so at his abode than to do so in public locales that have ambient noise. A homebody prefers to circumvent venturing into public locales. Furthermore, a homebody also prefers to circumvent being impeded by traffic. Moreover, a homebody also prefers to circumvent waiting in long lines. A homebody also prefers to circumvent frequenting depressing environments. A homebody is often eminently content with expending the vast majority of his time at his abode in lieu of disparate locales that are outside the vicinity of his home environment. Most homebodies also prefer to circumvent being exposed to second-hand smoke, lethal household cleaning products, and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. When homebodies venture into public locales, then they are all the more vulnerable to being exposed to second-hand smoke and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. A homebody is often recalcitrant about leaving his abode for a prolonged period of time. If a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would be unable to access the amenities that are at his abode. Furthermore, if a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would also need to cope with the ample inconveniences that are associated with the process of attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can significantly prolonged the time that it takes a homebody to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also render it more cumbersome for a homebody to attempt to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also bear ample costs, such as fuel costs, oil costs, tire rotation costs, and vehicle repair costs, if a homebody were to profusely utilize his vehicle to drive to distant locales where he can attempt to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. A homebody has a proclivity to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode since he is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time. A homebody is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combatting fatphobia and racism to reclaim a space for womxn at the intersection of fat and Black To be a womxn living in a body at the intersection of fat and Black is to be on the margins. From concern-trolling--"I just want you to be healthy"--to outright attacks, fat Black bodies that fall outside dominant constructs of beauty and wellness are subjected to healthism, racism, and misogynoir. The spaces carved out by third-wave feminism and the fat liberation movement fail at true inclusivity and intersectionality; fat Black womxn need to create their own safe spaces and community, instead of tirelessly laboring to educate and push back against dominant groups. Structured into three sections--"belonging," "resistance," and "acceptance"--and informed by personal history, community stories, and deep research, Fat Girls in Black Bodies breaks down the myths, stereotypes, tropes, and outright lies we've been sold about race, body size, belonging, and health. Dr. Joy Cox's razor-sharp cultural commentary exposes the racist roots of diet culture, healthism, and the ways we erroneously conflate body size with personal responsibility. She explores how to reclaim space and create belonging in a hostile world, pushing back against tired pressures of "going along just to get along," and dismantles the institutionally ingrained myths about race, size, gender, and worth that deny fat Black womxn their selfhood.

Book excerpt: A SUNDAY TIMES HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEAR 'A triumph' Guardian 'Glorious ... makes the past at once familiar, exotic and thrilling.' Dominic Sandbrook 'A brilliant book' Mail on Sunday Just like us, medieval men and women worried about growing old, got blisters and indigestion, fell in love and had children. And yet their lives were full of miraculous and richly metaphorical experiences radically different to our own, unfolding in a world where deadly wounds might be healed overnight by divine intervention, or the heart of a king, plucked from his corpse, could be held aloft as a powerful symbol of political rule. In this richly-illustrated and unusual history, Jack Hartnell uncovers the fascinating ways in which people thought about, explored and experienced their physical selves in the Middle Ages, from Constantinople to Cairo and Canterbury. Unfolding like a medieval pageant, and filled with saints, soldiers, caliphs, queens, monks and monstrous beasts, it throws light on the medieval body from head to toe - revealing the surprisingly sophisticated medical knowledge of the time in the process. Bringing together medicine, art, music, politics, philosophy and social history, there is no better guide to what life was really like for the men and women who lived and died in the Middle Ages. Medieval Bodies is published in association with Wellcome Collection.

Liz and Pete’s marriage has held up through time and circumstance, and their children, although not always perfectly mannered, seem to be clever and robust.

Jake, the eldest child, is flirting with a reckless reinterpretation of the past. And Pete, a ghost-writer who is striving to come to terms with his own masculinity, is flirting with a woman at work.
