sage the dose

O livro oficial da aclamada e premiada série da Netflix, The Crown, mistura ficção e extensa pesquisa de maneira elegante, traz fotos históricas e registros do seriado e mostra a formação de uma jovem rainha no século XX. The Crown: Os bastidores da História é a leitura que acompanha a primeira temporada da série vencedora do Emmy, Globo de Ouro, BAFTA e SAG Awards. O livro se concentra no recorte temporal de 1947 a 1955, que compreende a primneira temporada de série, quando a jovem Elizabeth II é consagrada rainha, e traz um texto refinado e dois encartes de fotos marcantes do dramático período. Elizabeth não esperava que seu pai, George VI, morresse tão jovem e tão cedo, deixando-a para ocupar o trono do Império Britânico e reger uma instituição global. Coroada aos 25 anos, ela já era esposa e mãe. The Crown: Os bastidores da História mostra a jornada de uma mulher aprendendo a se tornar soberana de seu povo. Os principais momentos sociais, políticos e pessoais que envolvem a vida de Elizabeth afetaram não só a Família Real como o mundo à sua volta. Enquanto o Reino Unido se levantava da sombra da Segunda Guerra, a nova monarca enfrentava desafios pessoais. A mãe não acreditava em seu casamento; o tio exilado zombava de suas habilidades para governar o Império; o marido ressentia-se por ter sacrificado a carreira e o nome de sua família; e a irmã embarcava em um caso de amor que ameaçava os laços seculares entre a Igreja e a Coroa. A premiada série original da Netflix, The Crown, criada pelo dramaturgo Peter Morgan, adaptou para a televisão os muitos personagens e acontecimentos que atravessam o reinado da rainha Elizabeth II. Mas o que é real? O que é ficção? Essas são perguntas que pairam na mente dos fãs da série e daqueles que já acompanham a história da Família Real britânica. Em The Crown: Os bastidores da História, o consultor histórico da série e biógrafo da Família Real, Robert Lacey, estabelece os limites entre o real e o fictício, destrinchando a primeira temporada da série - estrelada por Claire Foy como a rainha Elizabeth II; Matt Smith como Philip, duque de Edimburgo; e John Lithgow como Winston Churchill -, a qual retrata os acontecimentos históricos que envolvem a monarquia britânica de 1947 até 1955. Acompanhe a história de como a rainha Elizabeth II empenhou-se para assegurar que a Coroa estivesse sempre em primeiro lugar, tornando-se a monarca britânica com maior tempo de governo. The Crown: Os bastidores da História acrescenta ainda mais detalhes e profundidade aos acontecimentos da série, trazendo uma rica pesquisa histórica e fotografias, tanto da série quanto da Família Real, e também pintando um retrato íntimo da vida dentro do Palácio de Buckingham e da famosa residência no número 10 da Downing Street, moradia oficial do primeiro-ministro inglês. O leitor vai encontrar uma rainha Elizabeth II como nunca vista antes.

»Ich habe mich gefragt: Wie ist das eigentlich, wie spricht denn nun der Logos, gerade auch hier in dieser Tagung? Ich behaupte mal, er spricht auch aus mir irgendwie, und in ganz vielfältiger Form aus allen Menschen. Das ist doch etwas Erstaunliches, da tönt er aus der Musik von Lorenz Stolzenbach in einer besonderen Weise, da spricht er in der Sprache von Johannes Stüttgen, da tönt er in den Gesprächen der Menschen miteinander, untereinander, über Sprachgrenzen hinweg, und natürlich auch in der Menschenweihehandlung. Aber was macht das eigentlich? Es wird immer mehr und mehr, und man hat den Eindruck: Irgendwie kriege ich das gar nicht mehr zusammen. Auch in der Vorbereitung wurde mir das immer mehr deutlich; nun habe ich hier 19 Blätter mit Sachen, über die man mal reden könnte und mal darüber nachdenken könnte. Was davon jetzt noch übrig bleibt, das werden wir einfach sehen; ich kann es nicht genau sagen. Aber das Vielstimmige scheint mir tatsächlich eine Urwesenheit des Logos zu sein.« »I asked myself: How is it actually, how does the Logos speak, especially here in this conference? I would say that it also speaks through me in some way, and in many different ways through all people. It’s amazing – it resounds in a special way in the music of Lorenz Stolzenbach, it speaks in the language of Johannes Stüttgen, it echoes in the conversations of people with each other, among themselves, across language barriers, and of course also in the Act of Consecration. But what does it actually do? It increases and increases until one has the impression, »I just somehow can’t get it together«. This also became clearer to me as I was preparing; I now have 19 sheets of paper here with questions to talk about and think about. What comes of it now, we'll just have to see; I can’t say, exactly. But this polyphony actually seems to me to be a primal essence of the Logos.«

Der New York Times Bestsellerautor Carl Weber und die Essence Bestsellerautorin La Jill Hunt kehren mit einer Geschichte über Liebe, Verrat und Rassismus in die nächste Ausgabe der äusserst beliebten Family Business-Serie zurück. Seit seiner Kindheit in Georgia kämpft LC Duncan, das Oberhaupt und der Anführer des Duncan-Clans, gegen Rassismus. Selbst jetzt, wo er und seine Familie wirklich erfolgreich sind, kann der Rassismus immer noch direkt ins Gesicht schlagen. Vielleicht liegt es am politischen Klima oder einfach an schlechtem Timing, aber LC und der Rest der Duncans werden von dem ultimativen machtgierigen Rassisten, Sheriff KD Shrugs, herausgefordert. Nevada Duncan ist in dem Alter, in dem Mädchen und Sex ständig in seinen Gedanken sind. Sein attraktives Gesicht und sein überlegener Intellekt ziehen Kia an, die schöne Blasian-Callgirl, die ihn verführt, in einen Ort zu fliehen, an dem die Duncans definitiv nicht willkommen sind – El Paso, Texas, die Heimat von KD Shrugs. Was ist das Schlimmste, was einem gutaussehenden, reichen Millennial passieren kann? Rio Duncan würde sagen, es ist eine Verwechslung der Identität, nachdem er in einem Nachtclub von jemandem niedergeschlagen wurde, der denkt, er sei Roman Johnson, ein Räuber, der zufällig Rios Doppelgänger ist. Was als Nächstes passiert, wird die grösste Dose Würmer öffnen, mit der die Duncans je konfrontiert wurden. Machen Sie sich bereit für eine weitere Achterbahnfahrt mit der Familie Duncan.

Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni turns the Ramayana around by telling it in the voice of Sita ... this inversion is a gift - it presents us a with a way to know an already well-known story better and to love an already beloved story more' -- Arshia Sattar 'This inspired evocation of the goddess Sita is an epic song of strength and solidarity told with joy and intensity. It brings to life the personalities and predicaments of the Ramayana' -- Namita Gokhale 'Among the many, many Ramayanas there are now even - thankfully - some "Sitayanas", but I know of none with the special magic that Chitra Divakaruni ... brings to the telling' -- Philip Lutgendorf 'Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's Sita ... is an epitome of courage and self-respect, showing a path for all women. While weaving a familiar story, Chitra provides deep and surprising insights' -- Volga 'An incomparable storyteller' -- Denver Post 'Divakaruni's stories are irresistible' -- The New York Times Book Review 'Divakaruni's storytelling talents put her right up there with the best' -- Miami Herald 'In recasting the Ramayan as a love story Divakaruni accords Sita parity with Ram, revealing her innate strength. By giving primacy to her thoughts and feelings this also becomes the private tale of Shri and Shrimati Ramchandra Raghuvanshi, two wonderful people who loved each other but who broke up. To readers well-acquainted with that tragedy of modern times, the failed marriage, it will appeal. The ending, however, surpasses all expectations.' -- The Sunday Standard 'The success of both The Palace Of Illusions and The Forest Of Enchantments hinges acutely on the skill with which Divakaruni deploys the narratorial voice.' -- Mint 'The Forest of Enchantments is one of the simplest and most beautiful retellings of Sage Valmiki's epic.' -- Jetwings 'Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni does justice to the women of Ramayana ... The Forest of Enchantments is not just a retelling of a much-told epic, rather it is a book that tells it like it is - balanced and non-judgmental.' -- Huffpost 'A work ... of pluralities and possibilities ... This is the Sitayan we will give to our daughters, that they may imbibe Sita's strength, and even more proudly to our sons, who will learn how a woman is to be treated' -- The Wire 'Banerjee is markedly feminist ... Her spin on the most pivotal moment of Sita's life, the agnipariksha episode, is a moment of feminist brilliance. Her Sita answers all the questions we would have had when listening to the Ramayana while leaving us with plenty of food for thought.' -- The New Indian Express 'Divakaruni's retelling reminds her readers that the Ramayana, besides being a morality tale, is a love story at its heart' -- Huffpost 'Divakaruni and her women characters are a formidable pair' -- The Wire The Ramayana, one of the world's greatest epics, is also a tragic love story. In this brilliant retelling, Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni places Sita at the centre of the novel: this is Sita's version. The Forest of Enchantments is also a very human story of some of the other women in the epic, often misunderstood and relegated to the margins: Kaikeyi, Surpanakha, Mandodari. A powerful comment on duty, betrayal, infidelity and honour, it is also about women's struggle to retain autonomy in a world that privileges men, as Chitra transforms an ancient story into a gripping, contemporary battle of wills. While the Ramayana resonates even today, she makes it more relevant than ever, in the underlying questions in the novel: How should women be treated by their loved ones? What are their rights in a relationship? When does a woman need to stand up and say, 'Enough!

Clearly the science of medicine has progressed by leaps and bounds over the last twenty years—from computerized surgery to genetic modification. Yet medicine is more than just a science. It is also an art. As medical students complete their education, however, they may find that their training has been focused solely on the mechanics of diagnosis and treatment. While this scientific knowledge is fundamental to proper healthcare, it can overlook the importance of interacting with patients. In an attempt to refocus on how vital it is for doctors to consider their patients in full, Dr. Clifton K. Meador has written The Little Book of Doctors’ Rules . It offers simple and concise suggestions to humanize the practice of medicine. In this book, Dr. Meador draws on his nearly sixty-year medical career for nuggets of advice with both compassion and humor. Although there may not be a defined medical disease behind every physical symptom, Dr. Meador reminds us that the reason behind a symptom may be found if a doctor observes and listens carefully to a patient. He believes an effective physician treats a patient, not just a patient’s disease. The Little Book of Doctors’ Rules offers insightful rules that address a host of topics, which include developing a rapport with patients, treating dementia, and prescribing drugs. Designed for any healthcare professional, these short rules are easily understood and (mostly) non-technical. Here is a small sampling of Dr. Meador’s advice, from the sage and somber to the clever and sometimes controversial. While listening to a patient, do not do anything else. Just listen. Stop drug use in treatment whenever possible. If impossible, cease a patient’s use of as many drugs as possible whenever possible. Just because you know a lot of physiology, biochemistry, and anatomy does not mean you know anything about people. If all you listen to are symptoms, then all you will hear from your patients are symptoms. In addition to his own rules, Dr. Meador has included advice offered by some of the past giants of medicine. It is no coincidence that their words echo the message of this book, which gets to the true center of the healing arts.

Sometimes it seems that the interlocutor speaks a different language, and the dialogue does not stick, no matter how hard one tries to find arguments.

This audiobook will be useful to anyone who wants to build communication in different contexts, whether it's small talk, work negotiations, correspondence with clients, or trusting communication with family and friends.

In this cozy queer romantic fantasy, two members of a motley adventuring crew must confront monsters, hostile landscapes-and a growing attraction neither of them expected. Perfect fo r fans of Legends and Lattes and Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries. Sage has made her living as a ranger, moving constantly between adventuring parties, but has never had the chance to lead one of her own. So when she's offered the opportunity to assemble a crew and recover a rare magical artifact, it feels like a dream come true. There's just one problem: the quest leads straight into the most inhospitable part of the kingdom, with winter fast approaching. Araphi has always loved music, in defiance of her powerful family's expectations. All she wants is one last chance to perform before she has to wed to a man she does not love. Answering a call for a bard seems like the perfect escape-until she discovers it's for an adventuring party, led by the woman she hasn't been able to stop thinking about since she first laid eyes on her. As danger mounts and trust is tested, their newly formed band must learn to work together-or fail. And amid the chaos, Sage and Araphi must decide whether the greatest risk of all is falling for each other.

"His eyes returned to mine, that invisible tether between us strung too tight.That magnetic pull, it was unbreakable, unyielding. Eternal.And it demanded that we collide." On the secluded continent of Edenvale, possessing magic is a death sentence. Those who have it are labelled Cursed, and by order of the king, they are Cleansed-a horrific event utilizing a hot, hungry pyre and an iron collar. Enemy to the king, a group known as the Cursed rebels defend their lands from his reach, creating an ongoing, bloodthirsty war. When Sage's brother is conscripted for the war, she is forced to trade in her cozy, peaceful cottage life and join the Cursed rebels to get him back. Her mission seems straightforward, but Von, the leader of the Cursed rebels, comes riddled with dark secrets. With his otherworldly eyes, black as a starless night, and a taste for juicy thigh-ahem-red apples, Sage knows better than to get involved with a guy like him. But knowing and doing are two very different things. Together with the Cursed rebels and Von, the king of inky deals and sexy, stolen moments, Sage embarks on the quest of a lifetime. Little does she know that fate is at work and the gods are watching her every move. For A Court of Thorns and Roses and Blood and Ash fans who are looking to scratch that insatiable itch. This one is for you.

The Hindu tradition does not have a central holy book like the Bible or Koran, but the text that comes closest is the Bhagavad Gita-which is translated in English as the Song of God. As part of a spiritual tradition known for its massive epics and metaphysical expositions, the Gita expounds and encapsulates the essential aspects of Hindu philosophy and spiritual teachings in a mere 700+ verses. It has, however, been extracted from the longest Hindu epic, the Mahabarata, but except for the first chapter, the Gita does not develop the story line of the Mahabarata, nor does it share its general style and focus. For this reason, scholars speculate it was originally an independent text inserted into the Mahabarata at a later date. In any case, it exists on its own now. The backdrop for the Gita is a battlefield during the Mahabarata War, which is dated around 1000 BC, against which is presented an intense conversation between a famous warrior, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, in the form of his charioteer. It is speculated the Bhagavad Gita was written around 600 BC, with authorship being attributed to the sage Vyasa. My personal relationship with the Gita began several decades ago when I was reading massive amounts of spiritual literature. My first reading was particularly memorable for me because even though I had no real understanding of the teachings, at several points I began weeping. Fast forward to 2004 when a conclusive spiritual occurrence ended my 37-year quest for "enlightenment." In the aftermath I found I could easily see and understand what the masters of the past were trying to teach, but that the myriad translations and misinterpretations of their works were obscuring the simplicity and obviousness of it.   Next thing I know I'm doing my own translations/versions of these ancient works, which resulted in The Perennial Way. Among the comments I received about that book were people asking that I also do the Bhagavad Gita, and so I did. It has been a true joy revisiting this great work. And yes, it still has the power to make me weep.

Unmasking the rituals and cultural norms that define communities of artificial intelligence (AI) workers, Humans of AI demonstrates that there would be no AI without human intervention. Not a day goes by without breathless commentary on the increasing power of this innovative technology. Hype flows from the sages of Silicon Valley. But who is behind the evolution of this technology, and how does it really work? In Humans of AI, anthropologist Joseph Wilson details his efforts to understand the process and customs of AI development. Wilson introduces readers to the hidden world of AI - behind the doors of chip design labs, coding bootcamps, and organizations teaching AI to speak dozens of languages. He meets philosophers envisioning a future without disease or death, a Nobel Prize-winning scientist who warns of AI's existential risks, and ghost workers whose invisible labor powers the world's biggest tech platforms. He also speaks with writers, artists, and developers wrestling with the promise and peril of AI to find out what they really think of ChatGPT. Wilson's empathetic and thoughtful investigation provides readers a front row view on how AI is actually made. Humans of AI is indispensable in reminding people that the work of AI is not miraculous or magical, but vividly human.
