Book Description
"The Invention Game" delves into the heart of its thesis: how conceptual fictions can forge alternative realities. It provocatively suggests that societal norms, laws, and even morality are constructs formed by influential ideas. What if pivotal notions had been different? What if a seemingly insignificant change in perspective had reshaped the course of history? As characters grapple with the consequences of their choices, readers are challenged to consider the profound implications of their own beliefs. How have the great inventions of history shaped their lives? How do the ideas they hold dear dictate the world they live in?

Mister N. The voice of hope. Life is a Story - story.one
Author: Darya Karenina
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 3711522149
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
He was the voice of hope, the voice of truth. Mister N - a hero, Danko, who took his heart out of his chest to light the way for all of us in the impenetrable darkness. He is the king of hope, the king of light that will never go out. Even despite the vile Death peeking over his shoulder and playing him the last melody on the violin. What if he wore irony and humor like armor, and a radiant smile served as his visor? Grief came in waves: high tide - wet eyes, almost hysteria, rejection, bargaining, lack of air, low tide - silence, depression, disbelief, unawareness. This is not an attempt to immortalize anyone, elevate anyone, or become famous. This is not a manifesto, not a cry for help, not a desire to hype. It's just psychotherapy that we all need. I share my pain with you, but to support or argue is your choice.

My suitcase was packed the day before I left. Adventures ahead and absolutely no plan what was awaiting me. Now I am living in the US and living my personal dream - selling the best chocolate in the world to worlds largest retailers. On the way I met so many great people for whom I am infinitely thankful. Meeting new people usually means answering the same questions all the time. What is your name? How are you? Where are you from? Where do you work? Living abroad shifts those questions slightly and I collected 12 questions that I get frequently asked and decided to write down my thoughts of them. I don't want to give the answer "Fine, how are you?". I want to dive deeper and explain. All those things that don't fit in the thirty second answer.

One Word for Kids

ISBN: 1119430313
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 54
Book Description
From the authors who created the One Word movement, impacting schools, businesses, and sports teams around the world, comes a charming fable that can be read and shared by everyone. If you could choose only one word to help you have your best year ever, what would it be? Love? Fun? Believe? Brave? It’s probably different for everyone. How you find your word is just as important as the word itself. And once you know your word, what do you do with it? In One Word for Kids, bestselling author Jon Gordon—along with coauthors Dan Britton and Jimmy Page—asks these questions to children and adults of all ages, teaching an important life lesson in the process. This engaging, fully illustrated fable follows Stevie, a young boy falling asleep on the first day of school. His teacher gives the class an assignment: to find the one word that will help them have their best year ever. To discover their one word, they must look inside themselves, look up, and look out. At home, Stevie is upset because he can’t find his word. After his dad offers some helpful advice, Stevie excitedly begins the quest for his word. His search helps him discover a lot about himself, what he loves, and what is important to him. An easy read with a powerful message, One Word for Kids appeals to readers of all ages and is an ideal entry point into discussing a valuable lesson in a fun and engaging way.
