Download or read book Silent Voices written by Adam J. Berinsky and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past century, opinion polls have come to pervade American politics. Despite their shortcomings, the notion prevails that polls broadly represent public sentiment. But do they? In Silent Voices, Adam Berinsky presents a provocative argument that the very process of collecting information on public preferences through surveys may bias our picture of those preferences. In particular, he focuses on the many respondents who say they "don't know" when asked for their views on the political issues of the day. Using opinion poll data collected over the past forty years, Berinsky takes an increasingly technical area of research--public opinion--and synthesizes recent findings in a coherent and accessible manner while building on this with his own findings. He moves from an in-depth treatment of how citizens approach the survey interview, to a discussion of how individuals come to form and then to express opinions on political matters in the context of such an interview, to an examination of public opinion in three broad policy areas--race, social welfare, and war. He concludes that "don't know" responses are often the result of a systematic process that serves to exclude particular interests from the realm of recognized public opinion. Thus surveys may then echo the inegalitarian shortcomings of other forms of political participation and even introduce new problems altogether.

Book Synopsis The Sound of a Silent Voice by : Jennifer Breeden
Download or read book The Sound of a Silent Voice written by Jennifer Breeden and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-13 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written during a journey of trying to heal from PTSD from experiencing extreme violence, sexual abuse, entrapment, and rape. It has been creatively turned into poetry as poetry is generally about life situations and emotions. Since a broken heart or a heart of sorrow needs something creative to read with heartfelt words that are needed as well as a little guidance, pain was twisted with passion of writing and became a book of guidance to help in the pursuit of finding a silenced voice and to become stronger. I have learned that if you follow your passion/ what makes you truly happy, you will become stronger and more resilient to the problems you face day-to-day due to traumatic situations and problems. This book is full of emotional poems that will help you through so many hard times and help you see a situation in a whole different light. Again, I hope that when you read this book, it works as a stepping-stone toward reaching for your dreams. Never give up. Nothing is impossible!
Download or read book Silent Voices written by Judith Favor and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-12-17 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir's unsparing look at Leo and Cordelia Wright has bite and gravity. Two quiet people viewed through the lens of compassion offers fresh perspectives on the multiple causes and consequences of unspoken emotion. In 1912 the banker and the stenographer fell wildly in love. They were wed and buried her mother shortly before becoming proud parents. In 1929 Leo lost his livelihood and his pride. The prickly silences began. In 1934 his jobless father abandoned his mother. The bank foreclosed, leaving Margaret Mary Wright homeless. Leo and Cordelia faced a tough decision. Eventually they packed his elderly mother off to Oregon's public institution for paupers. The silences increased in intensity and hostility In 1942 Leo went to work building naval vessels in the Kaiser shipyard. A crime caused Cordelia to distrust him, dropping Leo into extended silences of longing, guilt and hoped-for reconciliation. In 1945 he was killed. Cordelia, a widow now with two adolescents to support, sought divine assistance on how to make a living. Prayerful silence soon led to her support of orphaned Japanese schoolgirls, a radical commitment in racist post-war Oregon. Across her lifespan my grandmother experienced shaming silence, bonding silence, confusing silence, punishing silence and, finally, revelatory silence. This memoir illustrates how the myriad facets of silence can impact personal and social relationships for harm or for healing.

Book Synopsis The Voice of the Silence by : Helena Petrovna Blavatsky
Download or read book The Voice of the Silence written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and published by Library of Alexandria. This book was released on 2020-09-28 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE following pages are derived from "The Book of the Golden Precepts," one of the works put into the hands of mystic students in the East. The knowledge of them is obligatory in that school, the teachings of which are accepted by many Theosophists. Therefore, as I know many of these Precepts by heart, the work of translating has been relatively an easy task for me. It is well known that, in India, the methods of psychic development differ with the Gurus (teachers or masters), not only because of their belonging to different schools of philosophy, of which there are six, but because every Guru has his own system, which he generally keeps very secret. But beyond the Himalayas the method in the Esoteric Schools does not differ, unless the Guru is simply a Lama, but little more learned than those he teaches. The work from which I here translate forms part of the same series as that from which the "Stanzas" of the Book of Dzyan were taken, on which the Secret Doctrine is based. Together with the great mystic work called Paramartha, which, the legend of Nagarjuna tells us, was delivered to the great Arhat by the Nagas or "Serpents" (in truth a name given to the ancient Initiates), the Book of the Golden Precepts claims the same origin. Yet its maxims and ideas, however noble and original, are often found under different forms in Sanskrit works, such as the Dnyaneshvari, that superb mystic treatise in which Krishna describes to Arjuna in glowing colors the condition of a fully illumined Yogi; and again in certain Upanishads. This is but natural, since most, if not all, of the greatest Arhats, the first followers of Gautama Buddha were Hindus and Aryans, not Mongolians, especially those who emigrated into Tibet. The works left by Aryasanga alone are very numerous.

Book Synopsis Anything But Silent by : Kate Hennessy

Book excerpt: What would you go through as a parent to give your child the power of speech? Parents dream their children will achieve many great things, but most parents do not dream their children will struggle for years just to speak what is in their hearts and minds. Kathy Hennessy faced this challenge with not one but both of her children when they were diagnosed with childhood apraxia of speech. What does a child feel like when no one in the world understands what she is trying to say? Imagine the frustration when even your mom doesn t get it. Young Kate Hennessy understands all too well those feelings of exasperation and defeat. In this forthright and emotional story, Kathy tells of the mountains they climbed just for her children to have a chance at speech. Hennessy tells of the battles she waged with insurance companies, pediatricians, school systems, and family, while Kate shares her own experiences and those of her brother with bullies, friends, and following their dreams. Heart-breaking and heart-warming, the Hennessys tell of the intense commitment to therapy, the magic of Santa Claus, and the sadness of teaching children to defend themselves. Daughter Kate tells of the determination of her brother and herself not to be consumed or broken by their disability; Kathy shares her creative solutions to their early speech limitations and her pride in seeing them as young adults speak in public at national conferences on childhood apraxia of speech. Not only had they conquered their own challenges, they were leading the way for other children like them.
Download or read book We Are America written by John Deverteuil and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-24 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Self-serving, party-over-people politicians are driving America into the ground. Out of touch with their constituents, they will continue to pursue their own goals until the electorate begins to hold them accountable for the issues plaguing the nation. John deVerteuil is one of millions of disgruntled and frankly disgusted voters. He's part of the silent majority: a fiscally conservative, socially progressive block of independent voters. For years, political parties have ignored the silent majority, focusing instead on the party faithful. Yet elections are won by those candidates who can attract the most independent voters. Those voters have traditionally had no voice on the national stage, but they're beginning to realize their importance and find their collective voice. When they do, Washington will never be the same. We Are America: A Voice for the Silent Majority offers real, sustainable solutions to our national crises, including candid discussions on debt, term limits, taxation, and immigration. deVerteuil's common-sense strategies are designed to be implemented by concerned citizens-with or without the federal government's involvement. It's time for Washington politicians to fall in line with middle America's thoughts and values. If they refuse, it's time for the silent majority to raise its voice.
Download or read book Silent No Longer written by Amanda Helman and published by Square Tree Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trauma has a way of turning people into the walking dead... "I cannot tell you the exact moment that the slow progression towards the death of my innocent childhood began, but somewhere in those years between three and five, I gradually lost my voice and sense of identity. My home life was chaotic and unpredictable. Glimpses of the unspeakable, like shadows, refused to come into the light. My world was filled with those who sought to silence me.. So I just stopped speaking up. Things seemed blurred in so many ways...memories, thoughts. All I knew was to hide inside myself. My inner conscience locked all the painful hidden trauma away until much later when it came to light through my journey of discovery. I couldn't remember the details of the abuse I suffered back then, and it would take years for me to consciously deal with it, when God slowly began to reveal the truth about my sexual abuse." Amanda Helman's raw and emotionally transparent retelling of her journey through the darkness of abuse and rejection draws you into her world. The pain that left her silent and, unable to find her voice eventually shattered as the light of truth burst through and she was finally Silent No Longer.
