G&D Media 30 Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary: The 500
Book SynopsisA Bigger Vocabulary = A Brighter Future. Words. They''re the foundation of nearly everything of value in our world. They have the power to create and the power to destroy. The power to inspire and to terrify. The power to enlighten and also to obscure. And, more specifically for you, they have the power to attract wealth and success and guarantee your brighter future. This is not hyperbole - it is based on rock-solid research. Studies show that those people with large vocabularies are smarter, wealthier, and happier than the average person - and substantially so. And here''s the best news of all: a large vocabulary is not tied to your social status, your genes, or even your education level. It is a skill that can be learned - and it takes only 30 days. In this cutting-edge program, 30 Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary, personal development expert and English enthusiast Dan Strutzel will instruct, enlighten, and inspire you with a concentrated 30-day program that will teach you over 500 words. But, more than teaching you these words, the uniquely designed program will ensure that these words become a habit-knit part of your life - and with minimal effort on your part. Best of all, research shows that learning new words has an exponential effect on the size of your vocabulary - since learning one word naturally produces an association between two to three more words. In short, after reading and applying the system in this 30-day program, you will not only have a bigger vocabulary - you will have a brighter future! Here''s just a sampling of what you''ll learn: The 10 myths about building a dynamic vocabulary The secret behind the exponential effect of vocabulary building A 30-day program designed to maximize learning and comprehension of over 500 words The words you need to know about money and financial issues The words you need to know about persuading others The words you need to know about marriage, parenting, and other relationships The words you need to know about science The words you need to know to be a great conversationalist Why building a large, dynamic vocabulary is even more valuable in the digital age And much more!

Lexington Books Communicating the Climate Crisis: New Directions
Book SynopsisCommunicating the Climate Crisis puts communication at the center of the change we need, providing concrete strategies that help break the social inertia that blocks social change and cultural transformation. After reimagining “earth” not just as the ground upon which we walk but as the atmosphere we breathe—Eairth—the book examines our consumption-based identities in fossil fuel culture and the necessity of structural change to address the climate crisis. Strategies for overcoming obstacles start with facing the emotional challenges (and the mental health tolls) of the crisis that lead to climate silence. Breaking that silence through personal climate conversations is a powerful tool that elevates the importance of the problem, finds common ground, and eases “climate anxiety.” The lens of climate justice and faith-based worldviews helps articulate our moral responsibility to take drastic action to protect all humans and the living world. This book tells a new story of hope through action—not as isolated, “guilty” consumers but as social actors who engage hearts, hands, and minds to envision and create a desired future.Trade Review"In this comprehensive and engagingly written book, Julia Corbett lays out not only the scientific, philosophical, and emotional dimensions of global climate change, but a compelling primer for more effective communication about the most pressing environmental crisis of our time. This is a book for teachers and students, activists and politicians, scientists and artists—for anyone hoping to do a better job of communicating climate change or to understand how effective communication can enable all of us to face our changing planet." -- Scott Slovic, University Distinguished Professor of Environmental Humanities, University of Idaho"In her book Communicating the Climate Crisis, Julia Corbett stands unblinking in front of humanity’s fiercest enemy—like David stood before Goliath. In a calming voice, she patiently explains to her readers how we made this foe, and how with the strategic use of communication we can unmake it—and thereby create a better and more sustainable world." -- Ed Maibach, Director, Center for Climate Change Communication, George Mason UniversityTable of ContentsTable of ContentsChapter 1: EairthChapter 2: Fossil Fuel CultureChapter 3: Individuals as Social Actors, Not ConsumersChapter 4: Emotions and Climate SilenceChapter 5: Breaking the Silence: Strategies for Talking About Climate ChangeChapter 6: Justice and Faith: The Moral Imperative of Climate ChangeChapter 7: A New Relationship with EairthChapter 8: Telling a New Story

Lexington Books The Climate Girl Effect: Fridays, Flint, and Fire
Book SynopsisFrom podiums on international stages to mainstream media coverage, from crowds of youth marching in streets, to social media feeds, everywhere we look we can see girls rising in the climate justice movement. Carolyn M. Cunningham and Heather M. Crandall examine these climate activists from the intersection of gender studies, new media studies, and environmental activism. They include cases about iconic climate girls such as Greta Thunberg, Mari Copeny, and Autumn Peltier (Wiikwemkoong First Nation) and lesser-known climate girl activists who design technologies, global non-profit organizations, and lawsuits against governments. Crandall and Cunningham reveal that climate girl activists are consciously intersectional and aware of how systems of oppression, including racism, heterosexism, and capitalism, impact the climate crisis. Scholars of women’s and gender studies, environmental studies, and communications studies will find this book of particular interest.Trade ReviewThis book is an excellent entry point for those interested in learning more about the current wave of girls activism for climate justice. The authors are both scholars and admirers of the activists and movements they present, allowing them to capture the tensions at play, between anxiety and strength, media empowerment and fetishization, and the desire to change the world versus the desire to live “normal” lives in unprecedented times. In combining attention to girls studies, environmental activism, black and indigenous experiences, and social/new media savvy, the book makes notable contributions to how we understand intersectional and coalition activisms. -- Casey R.

IGI Global Understanding Ubuntu for Enhancing Intercultural
Book SynopsisGiven the importance of cross-cultural competence, it is important that scholars from different parts of the world describe the conceptual frameworks underlying their cultures to provide people with knowledge helpful for understanding and navigating cultural barriers and promoting harmony and productivity in places of work. The literature is replete with reference points for understanding Eurocentric worldviews. Little has been written about non-Eurocentric worldviews with respect to the subject of socio-cultural harmony and interpersonal relations such as Ubuntu, Africa's indigenous philosophy and its relevancy. This philosophy teaches the importance of maintaining good human relations and sensitivity to the wellbeing of other people both as individuals and collectively. In the teachings of this African conceptual framework, the wellbeing of others is more important than that of self. Another important distinguishing feature of Ubuntu is that it places great value on communalism as opposed to individualism. The tenets of Ubuntu include human-centeredness, teamwork, collaboration, cooperation, respect for diversity of opinion, and joint consideration of problems. These tenets can be applied for intercultural competence and communications. Understanding Ubuntu for Enhancing Intercultural Communications sheds some light on Ubuntu, Africa's unique philosophy, and explores how the knowledge of Ubuntu can help minimize cross-cultural communication barriers. Within this context, the chapters work to make readers aware of the existence of an African worldview, specifically Ubuntu, and its possible contribution to interpersonal communication. This book also shares the lived experiences of being born and raised in sub-Saharan Africa where Ubuntu is a way of life. This book is essential for businesses seeking to expand internationally and managers overseeing diverse workforces as well as business executives, government officials, public relations officers, academicians, researchers, and students including those studying African studies, world religions, international business, international relations, management, communication, and more.
