Book Description
This book of poems is about heartbreak, the heartbreak of being in love with someone whose love was just out of reach. It made no difference if we were on opposite sides of the earth or sitting across from each other at a candlelit table; her love was always just out of reach. You ask yourself why he would torture himself in such a way. My answer would be, if you knew her like I did, that question would never even enter your mind. Add to the mix that she never knew how much I loved her and there you have a recipe for a poetry book of brokenhearted poems.

Getting from Here to There? Power, Politics and Urban Sustainability in North America
Author: Ernest J. Yanarella
Publisher: Universal-Publishers
ISBN: 1627345809
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Getting from Here to There? seeks to take the study of sustainable cities into a realm of analysis and critique that has not been seriously investigated in any explicit and systematic manner: the sphere of power and politics. Using detailed case studies of selected urban sustainability programs-some stillborn or short-lived, others celebrated, still others most promising-it focuses on the political agencies shaping them and the structural elements either impeding or facilitating efforts to build sustainable cities. To accomplish this task, the authors utilize three theories or models of urban power-growth coalition, urban regime, and neo-Gramscian hegemonic-to explore the dynamics of power and politics to better understand these cases and to derive important lessons about getting from here to there. These models offer valuable lessons for ongoing or future sustainable city programs, community or business groups, key policy makers, grassroots organizations, mayors, and urban planners involved in or contemplating moving urban sustainability projects forward, as well as students of urban politics and environmental and sustainability researchers.

Mind and Its World 1 Sourcebook
Author: Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche
Publisher: Nitartha International
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 493
Book Description
Mind and Its World I begins a detailed analysis of the subjective side of experience. It examines mind and how it perceives its world in valid and invalid ways based on the Classifications of Mind, which provides divisions and definitions of the types of mind identified in the epistemological tradition of Dignaga and Dharmakirti. The key point is the discernment of the aspects of mind that validly perceive things the way they are, which are distinguished from those aspects of mind that are mistaken and tainted by fundamental delusion, and thus keep one bound in samsara. It also introduces the two Hinayana philosophical systems, the Vaibhashika and Sautrantika schools, covering the two truths and the process of perception. Selected readings, analytical meditations, study questions, review summaries are included in the sourcebook.

The Post Office and Its Story
Author: Edward Bennett
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
A great deal has been written about the General Post Office in newspapers and magazines, but the books on the subject are comparatively few. And these volumes are either exhaustive historical treatises, or more popularly written descriptions of Post Office life and work. However, these works carry us no farther than the eve of penny postage, while the other books were written too long ago to be a guide to the Post Office of today. It is within the last twenty years that the Department has made the most rapid strides in the extension of its activities. Thus, what the author is attempting to do is to tell the story of the Department, briefly in its early beginnings, more fully in its modern developments, and in such a way as to give the reader the impression that the Post Office is alive, that it is in close touch with the needs of the nation, and is in less danger of being strangled with red-tape methods than at any time of its existence.
