Download or read book Complete Guide to Living, Working and Studying in the UK written by Rajiv Immanuel and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thinking of moving to the UK to live, work or study? You may have many practical questions about the UK and you want answers now. You want information on a range of topics connected with your forthcoming life in the UK. You may be interested in scholarships, jobs, work permits, salaries and many more things. You may want to settle in the UK permanently. This book has all the answers to your questions. Learn from one who has been through it before you.How fair and balanced can one be about one's own country of birth? "Most people cannot see themselves as others see them," wrote Napoleon Hill nearly a hundred years ago in his book Think And Grow Rich. If a person born in the UK were writing this book, you would expect the writer to give quite a different take on their own culture. Rajiv Immanuel, the author, like you, is a foreigner.A former international student, he puts his two decades of experience of living in the UK at your service in this book. He tells it to you like it is. For the truth about living, working and studying in the UK this is the book you need. The current edition features a new section on Brexit and its effects.This book contains all the best insights, tips, help and advice of the author's 18 books on the subject of preparing foreigners for UK life.The following questions are some of those answered in this book:What are the realities of UK life?What must I be aware of as a newly arrived foreigner in the UK?What risky behaviours must I avoid to save my life?How can I permanently settle down in the UK?What are the difficult things about life in the UK?What jobs and careers are in great demand in the UK and where specifically (which region)?Which UK towns and cities are crime-ridden and best avoided?Which are the best places to live in the UK?Which universities are located in crime hotspots?As a student what is the likelihood of my becoming a victim of crime?What are the best scholarships for studying in the UK?How can I get many of the benefits of a British private education for my child without paying for it?What not to do in Britain? Yes, there are things you must not do in Britain. Finding answers by yourself through experience can take you twenty years and make you go through much pain. Life is too short for that kind of experiment.Fortunately there is an easier way through this book.Mark H. McCormack in his book "What They Don't Teach You at Harvard Business School" writes, "Most people wouldn't know opportunity even if it jumped up and down and socked them on the jaw." In this book there is enough extraordinary information for an intelligent foreign student to secure a top-class scholarship to study in the UK with all expenses paid (fees, living expenses, warm clothing, and air travel to and from the UK).This is a life changing opportunity. Are you savvy enough to take it?Newly arrived foreigners in the UK are very vulnerable both as victims of crime and as lawbreakers themselves (the latter by being ignorant of the law). Migrants need to be aware of the law on practical aspects of UK life. One of the aims of this book is to do just that for you. Being ignorant of the realities of life in the UK can cost you your life. Learn about the realities of UK life in this book and safeguard yourself. Save yourself time. Don't reinvent the wheel. Arm yourself with the vital information in this book and let your UK life begin on a winning note. Avoid embarrassments, failures, unhappiness or even tragedy. Don't be penny-wise and pound foolish with your life and career. (How have other readers rated this book? Go to www.goodreads.com, type in this author's name and see)

Book excerpt: The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.

Download or read book Britain's Living Past written by Anthony Burton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Britain's Living Past is a celebration of the best of the past, of things that have been preserved because they still matter to the community. It is a book in which the emphasis is very much on the word 'living'; looking at traditions, pastimes and working practices, some centuries old, that survive today not as museum pieces or in pages of a history book but as part of everyday modern life. From reminders of Britain's great maritime past in the crafts of the shipwright and the rope maker, to the organised mayhem that is the Ashbourne Tuesday football match and the exotic splendour of Giffords traditional circus, writer Tony Burton and photographer Rob Scott have travelled the length and breadth of our great nation to recreate for the reader the amazing sights they have seen. Together they have travelled from Shetland in the far north to the tip of Cornwall. They have sailed along the Scottish coast in a paddle steamer and learned how to make Melton Mowbray pork pies by hand. They have watched ponies galloping through the streets of Appleby and resisted the temptation to try too many of the sweets in the world's oldest sweet shop. This is a book that delights in the rich diversity of our historic survivors. For both author and photographer it has been a pleasure to witness many skilled people at work: to discover the complexity of building a fairground organ or to marvel at the skill and athleticism of circus performers. This is a book of rich variety that celebrates the great survivors from our islands' history.

Download or read book The Condition of the Working-Class in England in 1844 written by Frederick Engels and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2014-02-12 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Condition of the Working Class in England is one of the best-known works of Friedrich Engels. Originally written in German as Die Lage der arbeitenden Klasse in England, it is a study of the working class in Victorian England. It was also Engels' first book, written during his stay in Manchester from 1842 to 1844. Manchester was then at the very heart of the Industrial Revolution, and Engels compiled his study from his own observations and detailed contemporary reports. Engels argues that the Industrial Revolution made workers worse off. He shows, for example, that in large industrial cities mortality from disease, as well as death-rates for workers were higher than in the countryside. In cities like Manchester and Liverpool mortality from smallpox, measles, scarlet fever and whooping cough was four times as high as in the surrounding countryside, and mortality from convulsions was ten times as high as in the countryside. The overall death-rate in Manchester and Liverpool was significantly higher than the national average (one in 32.72 and one in 31.90 and even one in 29.90, compared with one in 45 or one in 46). An interesting example shows the increase in the overall death-rates in the industrial town of Carlisle where before the introduction of mills (1779–1787), 4,408 out of 10,000 children died before reaching the age of five, and after their introduction the figure rose to 4,738. Before the introduction of mills, 1,006 out of 10,000 adults died before reaching 39 years old, and after their introduction the death rate rose to 1,261 out of 10,000.

Download or read book Made In Britain written by Evan Davis and published by Abacus. This book was released on 2011-05-19 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are countries famous for making? For Japan, the answer might be electronic goods. For Germany, automobiles. For France, perhaps a Louis Vuitton bag. But what about Britain? Here, Evan Davis sets himself the task of finding out. Offering a fascinating look at our manufacturing industries and revealing the various companies that might not be household names, but are very much world leaders in their fields, he shows how we have learnt to specialise in high end and niche areas that are the envy of the world. Taking in our disappointments and successes, Made in Britain is a brilliantly readable tour of our economic history, exploring the curious blend of resilience, innovation and economic free-thinking that makes us who we are.
