Dall'autrice di Melody, una storia sul potere della riconciliazione in un mondo di pregiudizi.\r\n\r\n«Ogni volta che suono dimentico me stessa. La musica scivola fuori e diventa oro. Sono un uccello con il dorso turchese che sorvola la savana. Sono una tigre che corre nella giungla. Sono una pantera, nera e misteriosa. Sono forte.»\r\n\r\nDalla separazione dei genitori, la vita di Isabella è divisa a metà tra casa di sua madre e casa di suo padre. Quello che più la fa sentire divisa non è però il fatto di doversi spostare fisicamente di settimana in settimana e cambiare continuamente ritmi e stili di vita. Il vero motivo di confusione riguarda la sua identità: il padre ha infatti origini africane, mentre la madre è bianca. Isabella è quindi mulatta, aspetto che la fa sentire profondamente insicura su chi è e su come definirsi. L'unica certezza che ha è il suo amore per il pianoforte e la volontà di partecipare all'importante competizione a cui l'ha iscritta la sua insegnante. La data di Pianopalooza si fa sempre più vicina e incombente. Dato che tutti gli adulti nella sua vita lavorano, il fratellastro Darren si offre d'accompagnarla in auto fino all'Università di Cincinnati. Durante il tragitto, i due vengono fermati dalla polizia che, esclusivamente perché è un ragazzo di colore, incolpa Darren di aver appena rapinato una banca nelle vicinanze. Nella confusione del momento e credendo che Isabella stia per tirare fuori dalla tasca un'arma, una poliziotta fa partire un colpo di pistola... Età di lettura: da 12 anni.

Towards the tail end of the 1980s, Neil Hannon: a talented singer/songwriter from Northern Ireland, formed his first line-up of The Divine Comedy. In 1989, he signed a deal with independent label, Setanta Records, which led to The Divine Comedy becoming the label's most successful chart act of the 1990s. \n\n In this book, Alan Draper examines the thirteen original studio albums released under The Divine Comedy banner between 1990 and 2022. This overview includes some interesting additional recordings including single releases and also takes in the pair of albums recorded by offshoot project: The Duckworth Lewis Method, on which Hannon combined forces with fellow Irishman, Thomas Walsh. \n\n The sweeping eclecticism on display throughout the recording career of The Divine Comedy is simply breathtaking: from indie roots on the 1990 debut album Fanfare For The Comic Muse; through the groundbreaking hybrid chamber-pop of Liberation and Promenade; to hit singles during the 1990s Britpop era and ambitious orchestral arrangements on later masterworks such as Fin De Siecle and Absent Friends. Through all these changes, Neil Hannon's restless spirit has remained a constant factor at the heart of The Divine Comedy, resulting in the extraordinary and ongoing canon of music explored in this book

Climate change is reshaping patterns of displacement around the world. Extreme weather events destroy homes, environmental degradation threatens the viability of livelihoods, sea level rise and coastal erosion force communities to relocate, and risks to food and resource security magnify the sources of political instability. Climate displacement—the displacement of people driven at least in part by the impacts of climate change—is a pressing moral challenge that is incumbent upon us to address.\n\nThis book develops a political theory of climate displacement. Most work on climate displacement has tended to take an idealized 'climate refugee' as its focus. But focusing on the figure of the climate refugee obscures the complexity and heterogeneity of climate displacement. Instead, this book takes the empirical dynamics of climate displacement as its starting point. It examines the moral and political problems raised by the interaction of climate change and displacement in five domains: community relocation, territorial sovereignty, labour migration, refugee movement, and internal displacement. In each context, climate displacement raises distinct questions, which this book explores on their own terms. At the same time, this book treats climate displacement as a unified phenomenon by examining the overarching questions of responsibility and fairness that it raises. The result is an empirically grounded political theory that both maps the conceptual terrain of climate displacement and charts a course for meeting the moral challenge that it raises.

La lunga battaglia iniziata all'Università della California nell'autunno 1964 dal Free Speech Movement e sfociata nei mesi successivi nei grandi sit-in e nella rivolta studentesca, repressa dalla burocrazia accademica e dalla polizia di Berkeley, non è stata soltanto una lotta per la libertà di parola e di propaganda politica all'interno del campus. Guidata da giovani e giovanissimi studenti, la ribellione di Berkeley ha colpito e messo in questione l'intera struttura dell'istruzione universitaria americana, la sua subordinazione al potere economico e la sua incapacità di dare risposte alle innumerevoli domande della nuova generazione di studenti \"radicali\". In questo libro, Hal Draper, militante del Free Speech Movement, documenta dall'interno la rivolta di Berkeley, offrendo al lettore una cronaca della più grande rivolta studentesca che ci sia mai stata in America. Prefazione Roberto Giammarco. Introduzione Mario Savio.

In questo libro viene affrontato un discorso sul dimagrimento senza peli sulla lingua, nello stile caratteristico di Draper. \"Pare che perdere peso sia diventato uno dei passatempi preferiti dell'umanità, una grande industria per l'imprenditore di successo ed una specializzazione per la comunità medico-scientifica. Chi avrà il coraggio di leggere questo affronto verbale all'autodistruzione - al proprio contributo ad un corpo grasso e deteriorato è ad un passo dalla soluzione\". \"La mia rudezza è gentilezza sotto mentite spoglie. Chi direbbe ad un bambino di mettere la mano in un alveare per gustarne il miele?\"

His name was Prince, and he was funky. He was also inspiring, infuriating, visionary and otherworldly. Channelling contradictions in search of his own unique truth, he eventually changed his name to an unpronounceable glyph that merged the male and female symbols in an outward expression of his inner dualities. Gifted with the ability to play almost every instrument on his records, and shifting between musical styles as much as he switched-up his looks, he refused to acknowledge boundaries. Instead, he brought opposing forces together in a life-long quest to reconcile a dirty mind with a love for God. In doing so, the mini Minneapolis genius became a world-conquering icon whose towering legacy continues to shape pop culture.

In the early 1970s, a strange apparition began to appear on the stages of a vibrant U.K. gig circuit in the shape of a band of West Country troubadours, rejoicing under the odd name of Stackridge. Their music presented an extraordinary mix of styles, from genres as diverse as folk, classical, progressive rock, jazz, pop and music hall. \n In this book, Alan Draper traces the ever diverging and remerging paths of the core four Stackridge songwriters: Andy Davis, James Warren, Mutter Slater and Crun Walter, both within and without Stackridge. It's a trip that spans half a century of recording. Commencing with their eclectic debut album Stackridge in 1971, it proceeds via many fascinating musical paths and occasional cul-de-sacs en route. \n\n The band's 1970s heyday was marked by many personnel reshuffles and after their dissolution in 1976, James Warren and Andy Davis combined to form The Korgis, who scored worldwide hits with 'If I Had You' and the much-covered standard 'Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime'. Also taking in The Korgis, Mutter Slater Band and solo projects, our trip finally arrives in the 21st century as Stackridge return for a second career and a heroes' welcome from their dedicated fan base.

A different and exciting form of self-care in the form of practical mind to body self-regulation.\n\n\n\nIn the challenging times of the 21st century, looking after oneself and navigating the bumps in the road has become more difficult than ever. However, this fascinating book, written by two psychotherapists with many years of experience, provides a simple and reliable means of restoring the balance which is vital for the robust body mind system we need if we are to be able to bounce back from adverse experiences.\n\n\n\nIt is this balance (homeostasis) that provides us with the highway to wellbeing and it is our body mind system's innate capacity to self regulate which is at the core of this book. Using six key Autogenic Training exercises, the authors provide readers with the skillset to self regulate at any time or any place. These exercises can activate the parasympathetic nervous system and involve body scans, breathing and other bodily awareness exercises.

An 800-CEO-READ \"Editor's Choice\" March 2019\n\n\n\nHow We Can Harness Carbon to Help Solve the Climate Crisis\n\n\n\nIn order to rescue ourselves from climate catastrophe, we need to radically alter how humans live on Earth. We have to go from spending carbon to banking it. We have to put back the trees, wetlands, and corals. We have to regrow the soil and turn back the desert. We have to save whales, wombats, and wolves. We have to reverse the flow of greenhouse gases and send them in exactly the opposite direction: down, not up. We have to flip the carbon cycle and run it backwards. For such a revolutionary transformation we'll need civilization 2.0.\n\n\n\nA secret unlocked by the ancients of the Amazon for its ability to transform impoverished tropical soils into terra preta-fertile black earths-points the way. The indigenous custom of converting organic materials into long lasting carbon has enjoyed a reawakening in recent decades as the quest for more sustainable farming methods has grown. Yet the benefits of this carbonized material, now called biochar, extend far beyond the soil. Pyrolyzing carbon has the power to restore a natural balance by unmining the coal and undrilling the oil and gas. Employed to its full potential, it can run the carbon cycle in reverse and remake Earth as a garden planet.\n\n\n\nBurn looks beyond renewable biomass or carbon capture energy systems to offer a bigger and bolder vision for the next phase of human progress, moving carbon from wasted sources:\n\n\n\n\n\ninto soils and agricultural systems to rebalance the carbon, nitrogen, and related cycles; enhance nutrient density in food; rebuild topsoil; and condition urban and agricultural lands to withstand flooding and drought\nto cleanse water by carbon filtration and trophic cascades within the world's rivers, oceans, and wetlands\nto shift urban infrastructures such as buildings, roads, bridges, and ports, incorporating drawdown materials and components, replacing steel, concrete, polymers, and composites with biological carbon\nto drive economic reorganization by incentivizing carbon drawdown\n\n\nFully developed, this approach costs nothing-to the contrary, it can save companies money or provide new revenue streams. It contains the seeds of a new, circular economy in which energy, natural resources, and human ingenuity enter a virtuous cycle of improvement. Burn offers bold new solutions to climate change that can begin right now.
