We the Other People -The Beggars of the Mercury Lights- introduces a new voice in American social literature, narrating the relationship between political power and invisible poverty amidst a crisis of conservative values, social injustice, the excesses of extremism, and the politicization of human suffering as a tool of power in the United States. The story focuses on a family, the Newmans, whose recent economic misfortune has plunged their patriarch into a depressive state in the years leading up to the global health crisis, which forms the backdrop of the novel. Steve Newman struggles to overcome his condition, creating imaginary games in which he blends experiences and fiction as therapy to ward off depression. From his misfortune and desperation emerges the resilience that rescues him from the demons that haunt him, turning him into a more compassionate member of society. Steve must come to terms with his new life, no longer from the height of opulence as he did before his failure, but now knowing firsthand society's abandonment of the poor and the socially 'invisible.' Castaño-Bedoya's novel recreates the lives of those who endure the difficulties of existence under the failure of the Constitution, and who clamor for their universal right to live without fear.

From the bestselling, award-winning authors of Musashi's Dokkodo... "Whether you're an entrepreneur, negotiator, or just someone seeking to improve your strategic thinking, I highly recommend this book." - Mark Raffan General Sun Tzu (544 - 496 BC) was one of the most celebrated strategists in all of human history. He recorded his winning precepts in Art of War sometime around 510 BC. It is the earliest surviving and most revered tome of its kind, one that centuries later is still widely referenced by captains of industry, heads of state, military leaders, martial artists, law enforcement professionals, lawmakers, mediators, diplomats, and businesspeople who need a competitive advantage in dealing with conflict. With methods so powerful they can conquer an adversary's spirit, you can use Master Tzu's strategies to overcome any challenge, from warfare to self-defense to business negotiations. This book starts with the classic 1910 translation of Art of War, adds modern and historical insight, and demonstrates how to put the master's timeless wisdom to use in your everyday life. In this fashion, the Art of War becomes accessible for the modern mind, simultaneously entertaining, enlightening, and practical.

His mastery of military strategy was so exceptional that he reportedly transformed 180 courtesans into skilled soldiers in a single training session. While that episode was likely exaggerated, historians agree that King Ho-Lu, with Sun Tzu at his side, defeated the powerful Ch'u state in 506 BC before heading north to subdue the states of Qi and Chin and forge his empire.

Ranked as one of the top 10 negotiation experts in the world by Global Guru's, he has been featured in Entrepreneur, Forbes, Supply and Demand Chain Executive Magazine, and appeared on dozens of podcasts.
In 1989 my husband Bill and I moved to a small town in France called La Varenne-Saint-Hilaire, a suburb southeast of Paris. Before leaving the States, Bill gifted me with a Nikon N2020 35mm film camera. We moved into a lovely home, three houses up from the Marne River that flows nearby. I loaded up my backpack with water, lots of film, and the desire to explore our new location. I spent hours in my darkroom developing my photos while Chewy, our cat, waited outside the door.Living in France was truly magical. The things those old buildings have seen and heard. Too bad they can't talk. Getting lost was typically unfortunate for anyone but not for me in Paris. I wandered endlessly and stumbled upon something new every time. Maybe because I knew this was not our permanent home, it made every day much more special.A feeling of awe would wash over me as I walked down an alleyway or some random cobblestone street as I let my mind wander and imagined some of the greatest minds ever had walked these same streets.Of course, we explored the obligatory things one must see and do-Versailles, Provence, Chantilly, etc. But we also visited towns we had never heard of, or someone from work would tell us, "You must see this place," and off we'd go. Sometimes a coin had to be flipped to see if we went left or right. We were never disappointed. It was like discovering something new-the sights, smells, and sounds different from one another-a photographer's paradise.Those were beautiful days that I would never forget; days spent exploring and appreciating the beauty of life all around me through my lens-capturing memories that will last forever in my mind's eye.The photos in this book are just some of the stories I wanted to share. Maybe they'll remind you of vacations taken, that first kiss, or when you walked down those same cobblestone streets or watched the sunset while drinking an espresso at a sidewalk cafe. Perhaps they'll inspire you to get out more and explore the world around you.

Ghazi Rayan, MD delivers this pivotal and immersive history detailing the growth of medical progress and its connection to the movement of people and ideas across borders. From the desk of acclaimed speaker and academic Ghazi Rayan, MD comes a broad and ambitious work of both history and culture.Beginning with the origins of medical practice in ancient history and continuing to the present day, our understanding of healthcare has relied largely on the free trade of ideas.

This work allows students of history and medicine to: - Study the evolution of medical thought across multiple periods of history, connecting individual achievements to methodological advancements in the field - Understand the significance of immigration for cultural and technological development - Tie the global historical narrative more closely to the story of American history - Recognize the current state of the American healthcare system, how it came to be, and the challenges it presently facesReaders will learn the history of medicine and healthcare over thousands of years, with a specific focus on U.S. history, including the Revolutionary era, the Civil War, and the great leaps taken at the turn of the century. Delivering a powerful, nonpolitical message, Dr. Rayan makes a compelling case for the importance of legal immigration to the future of progress.
