<p>Using Equine Photography as Mental Health Therapy is a self help book that outlines the usefulness of equine photography as a tool for mental health difficulties and depression. The author only briefly touches on the technical aspects of the art of photography as she believes it's not about the quality of the images that you make that's important.</p> <p>This particular type of therapy is all about your emotions, thoughts and feelings in the moment and beyond. She has chosen the horse as the subject of this book, because not only does she love them (a lifelong passion!), she also knows that they are the perfect animal to help humans to heal.</p> <p>Tina Collins is an ambassador for equine assisted therapy and she wrote this book as she agrees that the horse is a 'divine mirror': an animal capable of reflecting your emotions back at you. They help you learn about yourself and can break down psychological barriers.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The essence of divinity is found in every single thing. Nothing can live by anything else. It enlivens them, and its existence exists in each existent. Do not attribute duality to God. #2 Before anything existed, there was only Ein Sof. Ein Sof was all that existed. Similarly, after it brought into existence what exists, there is nothing but it. Nothing exists outside of its power. #3 God is one without two, inestimable. Genuine divine existence engenders the existence of all of creation. The inner essences secretly constitute a chain linking everything from the highest to the lowest, extending from the upper pool to the edge of the universe. #4 We all emerge from Ein Sof and are included in it. We live through its dissemination. It is the perpetuation of existence. The fact that we sustain ourselves on vegetation and animal life does not mean that we are nourished on something outside of it.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Miller had appeared as Dave Letterman’s guest fifty-six times over two decades. He had logged thirty-two appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. He had stood alone in front of a crowd and cracked wise every night for more than thirty years. #2 The feud between Leno and Letterman was well known among their friends. Leno had taken over for Letterman as host of The Tonight Show, and Letterman had always wanted the job. #3 The George stories were more accessible to an outsider. Elayne Boosler remembered a middle-of-the-night phone call she had with Miller in 1976, when he asked her for money so he could buy drugs. She gave him $75, and he called her an enabler years later because of it. #4 The funeral was filled with drug references and jokes. No one had any idea what was about to happen.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>The book "Connecting Worlds" introduces readers to the themes of transformative and participatory research through story, by reflecting on the author's journey of becoming and being a researcher engaged in the work of social change. Participation in the bush life of the 1970s Yukon, exposure to the complex culture of Mexico and a battle with cancer at the age of thirty-two prompted Daniel Buckles to work with people living on the edge: Honduran peasants inventing new agricultural technologies for hillside agriculture; landless Bangladeshi women gleaning nutrient-rich food from their surroundings; small religious communities standing in solidarity at the centre of disaster relief efforts in the Philippines and Burkina Faso; grassroots organizations fighting to protect urban forests in Ottawa, Canada. The experiences suggest that how we chose to connect to the worldーthe creative tension between self, others and natureーcan become the catalyst for an engaged life and the realization that there is no separation between the parts of life.</p> <p><strong>Review Comments</strong></p> <p>"Connecting Worlds is an absorbing travelogue of contemporary social struggles, a captivating journey of sound and light, no small amount of adventure and many stories about how change really happens. I read the book twice: first with envy and the second time with admiration."</p> <p>ー Pat Roy Mooney is a Giraffe Hero, author of Shattering: Food, Politics, and the Loss of Genetic Diversity and recipient of the Right Livelihood Award and the Pearson Medal of Peace.</p> <p>"As a young anthropologist, it is inspiring to read this candid and informative book. Buckles doesn't shy away from imagining a better world, and demonstrates how anthropology's methods can be used to get us there."</p> <p>ー Emma Bider, PhD candidate and author of We Animals.</p> <p>"This is a wonderfully refreshing and energizing book that celebrates the possibility of many different worlds."</p> <p>ー Michel Pimbert is Professor of Agroecology and Food Politics at Coventry University (UK), and author of Food Sovereignty, Agroecology and Biocultural Diversity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Medici family was descended from a knight called Averardo, who fought for Charlemagne during his conquest of Lombardy in the eighth century. They came to Florence in the thirteenth century. #2 The first Medici to be mentioned in the records of Florence is one Chiarissimo, who appears on a legal document dated 1201. The family became money-changers and gradually prospered. By the end of the thirteenth century, they had become one of the better-known business families in the city. #3 The city of Florence was the main economic power in Europe in the thirteenth century, due to the new growth industry of banking. The setting up of banks in the main trading centers greatly facilitated this burgeoning international trade, and in the process merchant bankers accumulated large assets. #4 During the fourteenth century, Florence became known for its banking supremacy and the trustworthiness of its bankers. The city’s currency, the florin, became an institution.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong>With a Foreword written by prominent Australian Christian leader, Tim Costello AO, this book combines high-quality photos of nature, interesting scientific background and Biblical reflections in a totally unique way. Readers may be drawn to see the natural world and God as perhaps they have not done so before.</strong></p> <p>Forty-four stunning photographs reveal incredibly diverse aspects of God's creationーHis 'first book'ーinviting both appreciation and contemplation. Of these, 34 are accompanied by firstly, a background explanation with relevant scientific detail and secondly, a reflection inspired by the image. In writing the reflections, the authors, both Bible college graduates who have served in full time Christian ministry, have drawn from various parts of God's 'second book'ーthe Bible. The reflections consider not only what has been recorded about creation, but also about its Creator, humanity and our role and responsibilities.</p> <p>The text addresses such questions as is the order, precision, diversity and beauty in nature merely random or accidental? What is the purpose of nature-creation? What parables for life are there in nature? What do natural disasters, death and decayーparts of nature that cannot be ignoredーmean? How should we respond to nature? What perspective should Christians bring to creation care?</p> <p>For people of faith, this book provides valuable insights and inspiration for daily meditation, prayer and responsible action. For those who simply love nature and recognise how significant it is, this book offers thought-provoking perspectives on beautiful images of the natural world.</p> <p>This book would be a great gift for such people as well as those with whom you would simply like to share, through the images, something of the sheer beauty of nature both here in Australia and elsewhere along with thoughtful text.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The maternal subject is a figure that disrupts or interrupts our notions of subjectivity. Motherhood is an undiscovered country in the literary sense, and we must venture into it lest our experience go unrecorded. #2 The division between mothering and creative work once seemed absolute. But in 1962, the careers of women with children were beginning to flourish. Mothers found ways to do their work, and were recognized for it. #3 The experience of being a mother is subjective, and it is difficult to explain or understand. It is everywhere in practice, but in theory, it seems nowhere. #4 The Freudian view of mothering is that it is the end of growth and achievement for a woman. The ideal situation is one in which the interests of mother and child are identical.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The 4th Viscount Townshend was a good choice for raising alarm bells about what British troops could expect from the Americans. His plump face and the bags under his eyes made him look like George III, but he was far fiercer. He had served in the British Army in Canada under Gen. James Wolfe, assuming command of the troops laying siege to Quebec City after Wolfe was killed. #2 The New York Assembly commissioned the golden George III, but not all New Yorkers were happy to see it arrive. The monument was a compromise, and while it proclaimed a loyalty to a certain version of reality not shared by everyone in the community, it still adorned New York as though no one had ever even considered disloyalty toward the king. #3 The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776, and New York’s Provincial Congress endorsed it a few days later. Gen. George Washington ordered it read aloud to the troops quartered in Manhattan. The soldiers heard about their unalienable Rights to Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. They learned that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, the people have the right to alter or abolish it. #4 The lead that made the New York statue so easy to pull down was precious. The British had been refusing to allow colonists to import the metal necessary to make bullets, so the rebels were desperate to make ammunition.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The elder Zanuck, Darryl, was chairman of the board of directors of the Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation and the Studio’s Los Angeles-based executive vice president in charge of world-wide production. He was also wearing sunglasses and smoking a large black cigar. #2 The turnaround of the Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation interested me, as it seemed to demonstrate the modus operandi of all studios, and the ethic of the motion picture people. #3 The motion picture ethic affects not only movie people but almost everyone living in the United States today. By adolescence, children have been programmed with a set of responses and life lessons learned mostly from movies, television, and the recording industry. #4 Richard Zanuck, the head of Fox, is a traffic manager. He does not assemble a package of story, talent, director, and producer, but rather is presented with one, take it or leave it. If he takes, which means putting up the money and providing the facilities, he risks losing his job.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On June 30, 1939, a major art auction took place at the Grand Hotel National in the Swiss resort town of Lucerne. The objects had been exhibited for some weeks before in Zurich and Lucerne, and a large international group of buyers had gathered. #2 The auction of German art was a disaster. It did not bring in nearly as much money as was hoped, and the museums did not receive a penny. The French journal Beaux Arts called the atmosphere at the Grand National stifling. #3 The Nazis had won their first parliamentary majority only six days before the museum locked up the show. Alfred Barr, who was a foreigner, was so furious that he asked architect Philip Johnson to buy several of the best pictures just to spite the sons-of-bitches. #4 The reception of modern art was not made any easier by the very mixed reception it had received for many years. In 1939, a Boston art critic, reviewing a show of contemporary German works, sadly declared: There are probably many people in Boston who will side with Hitler in this particular purge.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>Cannibal movies really are the least-effort-required horror movies to produce. A little fake (or not) blood and some expired meat donated by a sympathetic butcher, and you're good to go. All you have to do is promise the butcher a producer credit. The point I'm trying to make is, don't expect a lot of high-quality movies to be covered in this book. In fact, as with all of my movie guides, the lower your keep you expectations, the better. Satisfied, haters? Is that enough self-deprecation for you? You f-----g jackals.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
<p>Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I have always had a fascination with Johnny Mathis, a legendary singer who is almost never mentioned in gossip columns. I wish I were Johnny Mathis, and I believe that we all secretly idolize our imagined opposites, yearning to become the role models for others we know we could never be for ourselves. #2 I had always felt nuts, not romantic. I was too angry to be smooth. I was happily guilty to yearn for virtue. I had always followed the careers of Clarabell and Princess Summerfall Winterspring, hoping that I could someday have an extreme career in show business. #3 I wrote a letter to Johnny Mathis explaining why I wanted to meet him. I didn’t want to come to him with any agenda, sexual or racial, and I wasn’t. My Johnny Mathis lunacy was way beyond that anyway. #4 Johnny Mathis, the famous singer, was born in San Francisco in 1938. He was embarrassed around jazz people to be known for romantic music, and he wanted to be a jazz legend. He was a millionaire at twenty years old, but he never wanted to be anything but a good singer.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
