Book Description
Americans are being lied to ... We are lied to by our government, misled by the entertainment media, indoctrinated by our educational institutions, defrauded by our banking institutions, and subjugated by our employers. Nevertheless, we willingly grant these institutions power over nearly every aspect of our lives, and we even admire and assist those who are exploiting us. What is the purpose of the lies? To con each and every one of us out of our property rights, and to coerce us into consenting to our own fleecing--while venerating and revering the thieves. This is true no matter if one is truly poor, or one is a member of the upper-middle class. It doesn't matter if you are black, white, Latino, Asian, straight, gay, lesbian, Democrat, Republican, employee, manager, small-business owner, or greyhound dog. No matter how you earn your living, all those in the middle class have one thing in common. Like the greyhounds in a dog race, we have all been duped into pursuing an illusion, a goal that has been held in front of us as "The American Dream," a goal that has been deliberately rendered unattainable. This is because the act itself of "chasing the rabbit" is what enriches those few who benefit from our daily economic activity. Making the rabbit uncatchable ensures that we can never stop running after it. If you're a parent who cares about your children's future, if you're elderly and burdened with constant worry about surviving on a fixed income from social security, if you're a small business owner drowning in the quicksand of onerous taxes and crippling regulation, if you're a college student or recent graduate crippled with student loan debt--struggling or even unable to find a decent paying job, or if you're simply fed up with government lies and propaganda touting false hope and change for greater economic prosperity, financial security, and opportunity--all of which remain perpetually out of reach ... ...within these pages, you will learn what you can do about it.

Book Description
A woman diagnosed with dissociative identity disorder reveals her harrowing journey from abuse to recovery in this #1 New York Times bestselling autobiography written by her own multiple personalities. Successful, happily married Truddi Chase began therapy hoping to find the reasons behind her extreme anxiety, mood swings, and periodic blackouts. What emerged from her sessions was terrifying: Truddi’s mind and body were inhabited by the Troops—ninety-two individual voices that emerged to shield her from her traumatizing childhood. For years the Troops created a world where she could hide from the pain of the ritualized sexual abuse she suffered at the hands of her own stepfather—abuse that began when she was only two years old. It was a past that Truddi didn’t even know existed, until she and her therapist took a journey to where the nightmare began... Written by the Troops themselves, When Rabbit Howls is told by the very alter-egos who stayed with Truddi Chase, watched over her, and protected her. What they reveal is a spellbinding descent into a personal hell—and an ultimate, triumphant deliverance for the woman they became.

Chasing Rabbits
Author: Sunil Singh
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781948334389
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Curiouser and Curiouser . . . Mainstream math education over the last century has concretized an approach to mathematics that is rote, anxiety-producing, and far too focused on outcomes rather than the journey of discovery. In Chasing Rabbits, educator Sunil Singh offers an approach to mathematics that advocates getting lost, slowing down, feeling bewildered and disoriented, and even failing. Engaging with math in this way, he argues, can not only accomplish greater buy-in and enjoyment from math learners, but it can also affirm our sense of humanity and wellness overall. Singh invites the reader to explore his philosophy of mathematics through relating math to other disciplines, and to figures as diverse as MC Escher and Anthony Bourdain. Singh also delves into variously complex mathematical problems to offer concrete examples of what doing math differently looks and feels like. Mathematics, Singh demonstrates, ought to be a site not of stress and anxiety, but of wonder and joy. Endorsements "If you want to learn about what it's like to live a mathematical life by sitting around the campfire with a mug of cocoa, listening to a great storyteller who has done just that, this book is for you. It's superb. I loved it." -Keith Devlin, Stanford University "This book is a fascinating journey that illuminates the wonder, joy, and beauty of mathematics!" -Trena Wilkerson, NCTM president "Sunil Singh is a powerful storyteller who paints a vivid picture of mathematical wellness." -Mona Toncheff, NCSM president "Insightful introspections, rich rumination, and unexpected metaphors abound in this book!" -Francis Su, author of Mathematics for Human Flourishing

Pages : 272
Book Description
‘Two young women plunging into post-war Bosnia like two Alices into Wonderland . . . smart, energetic, passionate, announcing a major talent.’ - Aleksandar Hemon Sara hasn’t seen or heard from her childhood best friend, Lejla, in years. She’s comfortable with her life in Dublin, with her partner, their avocado plant, and their naturist neighbour. But when Lejla calls her and demands she come home to Bosnia, Sara finds that she can’t say no. What begins as a road trip becomes a journey through the past, as the two women set off to find Armin, Lejla’s brother who disappeared towards the end of the Bosnian War. Presumed dead by everyone else, only Lejla and Sara believed Armin was still alive. Confronted with the limits of memory, Sara is forced to reconsider the things she thought she understood as a girl: the best friend she loved, the first experiences they shared, but also the social and religious lines that separated them, that brought them such different lives. Translated into English by author Lana Bastašic, Catch the Rabbit tells the story of how we place the ones we love on pedestals, and then wait for them to fall off, how loss marks us indelibly, and how the traumas of war echo down the years.
