Pot Culture
Author: Shirley Halperin
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1613128746
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 825
Book Description
“Essentially an encyclopedia of pot, filled with such top 10 lists as ‘best stoner movies’ . . . plus a ‘pot-parazzi’ section with celebrities sneaking a toke.” —Billboard Do you know the difference between burning one and Burning Man? Does using the name Marley as an adjective make total sense to you? Do you chuckle to yourself when the clock strikes 4:20? Are you convinced that the movie Dazed and Confused deserved an Oscar? If you answered “Dude!” to any of these questions, then Pot Culture is the book you’ve been waiting for. For those in the know, it’s the stoner bible. For novices, it’s Pot 101. Either way, Pot Culture encapsulates the history, lifestyle, and language of a subculture that, with every generation, is constantly redefining itself. From exhaustive lists of stoner-friendly movies, music, and television shows to detailed explanations of various stoner tools to celebrity-authored how-tos and an A-Z compendium of slang words and terms, it’s the ultimate encyclopedia of pot. Written by former High Times editors Shirley Halperin (now a senior writer at Entertainment Weekly and a TV talking head) and Steve Bloom (publisher of CelebStoner.com), and featuring contributions by a host of celebrity stoners, including Melissa Etheridge, Maroon 5’s Adam Levine, Redman, Steve-O, and America’s Next Top Model’s Adrianne Curry, Pot Culture provides the answers to everything you ever wanted to know about pot but were too stoned to ask. “This is a fun book that every toker should get their sticky green fingers on. Clever and informative . . . Great book and a must-buy for all us loadies.” —Blogcritics

Dialogue
Author: Emmanuel Olusola
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1039103626
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
I am glad to see a new work from Fr. Emmanuel Olusola on the importance of dialogue. In a world with advanced technologies for communication, coupled with increasing polarization, it is a task of both the Church and of society to create dynamics for dialogue in order to address differences in peaceful ways and to foster spaces for meaningful encounters to find a path forward amidst challenging situations. As this book argues, such spaces begin with each individual through intra-personal dialogue. Most Rev. Donald Bolen Archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada Member, Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, Vatican City, Italy Dr. Olusola’s book makes a significant contribution to knowledge about dialogue. The book not only establishes the interconnection between intra-personal and interpersonal dialogue, but also provides a fresh perspective in understanding dialogue from cultural, scientific, and Christian perspectives. Olusola convincingly presents the art of listening as an essential requirement for dialogue in the digital age. He summarily explores the power of dialogical conversation in building relationships. This book is a must for everyone interested in a peaceful family life, a rewarding workplace experience, and a better world at large. Rev. Fr. Gerald M. Musa, PhD Lecturer, Center for the Study of African Culture and Communication (CESACC) Catholic Institute of West Africa, Port Harcourt, Nigeria, West Africa
