Think and Grow Rich: The Landmark Bestseller Now Revised and Updated for the 21st Century (Think and Grow Rich Series) Part of: Think and Grow Rich (3 Books) | by Napoleon Hill and Arthur R. Pell

 

 

Think and Grow Rich has been called the "Granddaddy of All Motivational Literature." It was the first book to boldly ask, "What makes a winner?" The man who asked and listened for the answer, Napoleon Hill, is now counted in the top ranks of the world's winners himself.

The most famous of all teachers of success spent "a fortune and the better part of a lifetime of effort" to produce the "Law of Success" philosophy that forms the basis of his books and that is so powerfully summarized in this one.

In the original Think and Grow Rich, published in 1937, Hill draws on stories of Andrew Carnegie, Thomas Edison, Henry Ford, and other millionaires of his generation to illustrate his principles. In the updated version, Arthur R. Pell, Ph.D., a nationally known author, lecturer, and consultant in human resources management and an expert in applying Hill's thought, deftly interweaves anecdotes of how contemporary millionaires and billionaires, such as Bill Gates, Mary Kay Ash, Dave Thomas, and Sir John Templeton, achieved their wealth. Outmoded or arcane terminology and examples are faithfully refreshed to preclude any stumbling blocks to a new generation of readers.

 

Rich Dad Poor Dad: What the Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not! Part of: Rich Dad Poor Dad (14 Books) | by Robert T. Kiyosaki

 

 

It's been nearly 25 years since Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad first made waves in the Personal Finance arena.
It has since become the #1 Personal Finance book of all time... translated into dozens of languages and sold around the world.

Rich Dad Poor Dad is Robert's story of growing up with two dads — his real father and the father of his best friend, his rich dad — and the ways in which both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing. The book explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to be rich and explains the difference between working for money and having your money work for you.

20 Years... 20/20 Hindsight
In the 20th Anniversary Edition of this classic, Robert offers an update on what we’ve seen over the past 20 years related to money, investing, and the global economy. Sidebars throughout the book will take readers “fast forward” — from 1997 to today — as Robert assesses how the principles taught by his rich dad have stood the test of time.

In many ways, the messages of Rich Dad Poor Dad, messages that were criticized and challenged two decades ago, are more meaningful, relevant and important today than they were 20 years ago.

As always, readers can expect that Robert will be candid, insightful... and continue to rock more than a few boats in his retrospective.

Will there be a few surprises? Count on it.

Rich Dad Poor Dad...
• Explodes the myth that you need to earn a high income to become rich
• Challenges the belief that your house is an asset
• Shows parents why they can't rely on the school system to teach their kids
about money
• Defines once and for all an asset and a liability
• Teaches you what to teach your kids about money for their future financial
success

The Nobleman's Guide to Scandal and Shipwrecks (Montague Siblings, 3) Book 3 of 3: Montague Siblings Novella | by Mackenzi Lee

 

 

Return to the enchanting world of the Montague siblings in the finale to the New York Times bestselling and Stonewall Honor-winning series, featuring a teenage Adrian Montague as he desperately seeks the now adult Monty and Felicity―the older siblings he never knew he had.

The sole heir to his family’s fortune, Adrian Montague desperately wants to be free―from his father’s high expectations; the grief of losing his beloved mother; and the constant war being waged inside his mind. Adrian was diagnosed with hysteria at a young age and it’s always been kept a secret. But when he has a breakdown at his engagement party, the public learns Adrian’s worst fear: he might not be fit to run the Montague estate.

Thankfully, Adrian is given an opportunity to avoid the impending scandal: a trip to the Caribbean to claim the last of his mother’s possessions. But along the way, Adrian discovers another secret lurking in his family tree. He is actually the youngest of three children―his sister Felicity and brother “Monty” went missing over a decade ago. Now Adrian has the chance to find them and offer to pass the estate back to the rightful heirs.

Adrian expects to win his long-lost brother over with the promise of wealth and inheritance, while dreaming of a quiet life where Adrian doesn’t feel like a burden to anyone. But when Adrian finally tracks him down, Monty refuses to return home. The only thing he can convince Monty of is to accompany him across the ocean as an act of tribute to their mother, hoping that during the voyage he can persuade Monty into taking the weight of inheriting the estate off his shoulders.

When they reach their destination, Adrian and Monty find something hidden in their mother’s belongings―a clue pointing to a valuable artifact that could potentially save the Montague siblings from a curse that threatens their lives. But to retrieve it, they must chase an infamous myth through the wild sugar fields of Barbados to the haunting streets of New Orleans to mysterious uncharted islands off the edge of the map.

 

Every Day the River Changes: Four Weeks Down the Magdalena by Jordan Salama

 

 

An exhilarating travelogue for a new generation by a protege of John McPhee ("A born journalist") and Pico Iyer ("A writer, a traveler—a virtuoso—of rare talent and energy") about a journey along Colombia’s Magdalena River, exploring life by the banks of a majestic river now at risk, and how a country recovers from conflict.

An American writer of Argentine, Syrian, and Iraqi Jewish descent, Jordan Salama tells the story of the Rio Magdalena, nearly one thousand miles long, the heart of Colombia. This is Gabriel García Márquez’s territory—rumor has it Macondo was partly inspired by the port town of Mompox—as much as that of the Middle Eastern immigrants who run fabric stores by its banks.
 
Following the river from its source high in the Andes to its mouth on the Caribbean coast, journeying by boat, bus, and improvised motobalinera, Salama writes against stereotype and toward the rich lives of those he meets. Among them are a canoe builder, biologists who study invasive hippopotamuses, a Queens transplant managing a failing hotel, a jeweler practicing the art of silver filigree, and a traveling librarian whose donkeys, Alfa and Beto, haul books to rural children.
 
Joy, mourning, and humor come together in this astonishing debut, travel writing about a country too often seen as only a site of war, and a tale of lively adventure following a legendary river.

Parent Goals: The Millennial’s Guide to New Parent Preparedness by Lindsay Garrett

 

 

Child welfare and adoption specialist Lindsay Garrett, LCSW, teaches Millennials considering having kids how to emotionally prepare for parenthood, determine their parenting style and values, and establish sustainable support.

In your prime child-rearing years and mulling the question Am I ready to have a baby? Millennials contemplating kids can now turn to Parent Goals, a guide to emotional preparedness for parenthood. Child welfare and adoption specialist Lindsay Garrett leverages her professional expertise and experience as a new parent to lead readers through the mental prep work needed before embarking on this important life choice.

Parent Goals is the book to turn to before you make the decision to become a parent. Unlike other books on the topic that focus on pregnancy and kids’ life stages, Parent Goals outlines the most important—and least explained—aspects of having children, including emotional readiness, attachment theory, and determining your values as a parent.

In addition to offering advice and guidance, Parent Goals is the first book to address the emergence of the co-parenting style popular with Millennials, which involves a more equitable division of labor than we have seen in previous generations. Garrett’s down-to-earth and sometimes cheeky writing style makes Parent Goals an accessible and engaging read for the Millennial generation.

Leading Global Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: A Guide for Systemic Change in Multinational Organizations by Rohini Anand

 

 

How can multinational companies implement DEI initiatives across different countries and cultures? This book offers five proven principles for advancing social justice with a nuanced understanding of local customs.

DEI cannot be addressed globally through a single-culture worldview. The specifics of a successful DEI change effort in the United States may be irrelevant in another country. Succeeding locally - understanding the market and acknowledging local beliefs, regulations, and customs - is essential to succeeding globally. Thus, the question is, How do companies find the right balance between anchoring their efforts in the local context while pushing for change that may disrupt some of the cultural norms?

This book offers five overarching principles for transforming cultures to be inclusive globally:
1. Make it local.
2. Leaders change to lead change.
3. And it's good business too.
4. Go deep, wide, and inside out.
5. Know what matters, and count it.

These principles arise from Rohini Anand's own journey, as well as examples of more than thirty leaders from a variety of industries. Despite the urgency of the topic, little has been written on how to take cultural nuances into account while promoting social justice. This book makes a powerful contribution.

Decameron 57: The Dual Nature of Silence di Sàndor Halmosi ( I Quaderni del Bardo Edizioni di Stefano Donno)

Evidente che Halmosi ha fatto incetta delle avanguardie e ne ha vissuto le apoteosi, le intemperanze e gli sfilacciamenti, anche se adesso ha stemperato le sue esigenze di enigmi affidati interamente alla parola ed è entrato in uno spazio aperto, tutto personale, in cui le immagini hanno bisogno di trovare essenze irrorate di analogie non più snaturanti, ma dense di ritmo e di calore, ricche di pathos, pronte a tradire la logica, anzi a dissuaderla dalla sua occupazione. Una bella svolta, ma il suo verso non ha perduto l’incandescenza primordiale, la capacità di captare il delirio delle sillabe, il desiderio della parola di diventare mondo assoluto. Naturalmente il “maledettismo” gli è rimasto dentro; le abbuffate di Gregory Corso, di Ferlinghetti, di Bukowski ancora cercano la digestione per stemperarsi e costringere le immagini a trovare un assetto loquace fuori dalla improvvisazione, altrimenti come spiegare l’accanito citazionismo che va da Eliot a Rimbaud, da Verlaine a Suskind, da Voltaire e Joszef Attila a Bulgakov, ad Andersen, ai Grimm, a Pessoa? Tuttavia Halmosi riesce a trovare una sua voce che si fa strada fuori dal coro, “Attraverso la tenerezza del corpo. / Come tessuto dello spirito”, perché “Il diavolo non dorme. / Non può”. Non solo, come ogni diavolo si diverte a invertire la rotta dei significati, a squarciare i nessi, a scomporre la sintassi e a rompere la linearità d’ogni discorso, in modo da rendere la realtà un cerchio infernale nel quale scorgere la sintesi della vita, della morte e dell’amore. Si avverte, sotto la filigrana espressiva, che il poeta ha una sana tendenza al lirismo e che però lo ha subito come una peste da cui bisogna allontanarsi e perciò è necessario rompere gli schemi, tralasciare “i concetti barocchi”, immergersi nel caos linguistico facendo divergere ogni possibilità di accordi. Come a dire che tutto deve andare a finire al macero da cui poi pescare lacerti, bagliori, cenere di un incanto perduto e che non bisogna sospirare, perché la salvezza deve essere un guadagno che arriva dalla distruzione. (dalla prefazione di Dante Maffia)

Dolci di Calabria di Alessandra Uriselli

 

 

Questo libro nasce per far conoscere la tradizione dolciaria della Calabria, da una parte un occhio attento alla tradizione, dall'altra una reinterpretazione di dolci misti realizzati con i profumi e i sapori calabresi. Protagonisti principali di queste ricette sono l'amore, il ricordo, il legame fortissimo alla propria terra, l'incredibile interazione e il contatto che il cibo, in questo caso specifico, i dolci, creano nel vissuto di ogni persona. Un libro che possa permettere a chi è calabrese di rivivere alcuni momenti, a chi non lo è di approcciarsi in maniera semplice e con grande umiltà alla pasticceria di questa terra.

Ricette di Calabria: la Cucina Calabrese di Bianca Minerdo

 

 

Pane, olio extravergine di oliva e vino, verdure e legumi, frutta fresca e secca, carne, pesce, latticini, spezie e aromi, su tutti il peperoncino. Materie prime semplici e genuine elaborate in piatti tradizionali o rinnovati con misura, sempre nel solco della tipicità. Una cucina molto saporita, che sorprendentemente riesce anche a essere leggera ed equilibrata, in piena linea con la dieta mediterranea. Qualche esempio: polpette di melanzane, morzello, cavatelli con ragù di polpettine, stroncatura con alici e mollica, “millecosedde”, lo stocco variamente declinato, crostata del diavolo, fichi imbottiti. Ma anche ricette arbëreshe che raccontano la contaminazione tra la tradizione delle comunità albanesi e quella del territorio.

Sapori. Racconti, legende e gusti di Calabria di Elisabetta Motta e Francesco Forestiero

 

 

 

Etnobotanica in Calabria. Viaggio alla scoperta di antichi saperi intorno al mondo delle piante di Antonella Lupia, Carmine Lupia, e al.

 

 

«... questo lavoro vuole essere soprattutto un riconoscimento al sistema di valori incarnato dalla civiltà contadina, un vero e proprio tributo di riconoscenza al mondo rurale calabrese, depositario di un sistema di saperi di altissimo livello, anche se sprezzantemente e sbrigativamente liquidato - nel recente passato e sull’onda di un vuoto intellettualismo di maniera - come apparato residuale di superstizioni e credenze popolari privo di qualsivoglia spessore culturale». In queste parole si può cogliere il senso più profondo di questo libro, capace di guidare il lettore lungo un percorso che suscita continua meraviglia e stupore, in quanto aiuta a scoprire la straordinaria ricchezza del patrimonio floristico calabrese, non solo in termini di biodiversità, ma anche come patrimonio di risorse naturali sapientemente utilizzate dal mondo rurale. «In un mondo tacciato di ignoranza, come quello contadino, si ritrova invece una straordinaria capacità di apprendimento dei più intimi meccanismi di funzionamento della natura, una competenza esemplare su piante e animali, una padronanza incredibile di esperienze e conoscenze pratiche, un bagaglio inesauribile di consapevolezze inerenti l’ordine naturale che regna nel Creato, tanto da suscitare un profondo sentimento di rispetto e di ammirazione in chiunque si avvicina a questo mondo, con la curiosità dell’intelligenza viva e la serenità di giudizio degli spiriti liberi». Questo libro è un invito a scoprire i segreti della natura e a rispettarne le preziose risorse, di cui l’uomo deve imparare a divenire amorevole custode.

20 borghi da non perdere in Calabria di Gianfrancesco Solferino

 

C'è una Calabria nascosta, inesplorata e poco conosciuta, quella dei piccoli borghi che racchiudono tesori artistici, maestranze architettoniche, tradizioni e culture che sono testimonianze della storia millenaria della regione. Il libro di Gianfrancesco Solferino vuole raccontare questa Calabria, ricca di bellezza e di fascino, una Calabria che cattura e ammalia il visitatore, e lo fa attraverso 20 itinerari, alla scoperta di altrettanti borghi: Aieta, Altomonte, Aiello, Tropea, Soriano, Scilla, Bova, Gerace, Stilo, Serra San Bruno, Badolato, Squillace, Tiriolo, Cropani, Taverna, Santa Severina, Caccuri, Civita, Morano Calabro, Oriolo.

Calabria malata. Sanità, l'altra 'ndrangheta di Massimo Scura

 

 

I fatti presi in considerazione vanno dal 12 marzo 2015 al 18 aprile 2019. I comportamenti, invece, sono antichi. Attraverso l'analisi degli eventi e delle decisioni, non necessariamente illegittime, cerco di dimostrare che la Calabria non interessa a nessuno, se non quando si avvicinano le elezioni. La Calabria non è importante per Roma né, purtroppo, per i calabresi, che si sono arresi a quanto giudicano inevitabile e immutabile. Questa assuefazione collettiva è la droga venduta dall'altra 'ndrangheta, silenziosa, che si insinua nella vita quotidiana, in particolare della sanità pubblica, una miniera d'oro, per far proliferare i propri affari. Anche il nuovo si è subito adeguato.

Calabria: Viaggio alla scoperta della mia terra di Roberto Aiello e Giuseppina Mazzei

 

 

«Un consiglio per chi decide di visitare la Calabria: non abbiate paura di chiedere o di bussare alle porte quando è necessario. Amatela questa terra, se veramente volete capirla. Diversamente resterà, per voi avventurieri, un enigma».

Curioso di scoprire le proprie radici, Roberto decide di partire alla volta della Calabria. Racconta il suo viaggio con lo sguardo originale di chi non conosceva, e forse neppure immaginava, la complessità culturale e naturale della sua terra d’origine.
Il volume, ricco di note e riferimenti bibliografici, si snoda in cinque itinerari – 123 paesi – percorsi dal viaggiatore e conduce il lettore tra i castelli, le chiese, gli intricati vicoli, i parchi naturali e le spiagge di una Regione ricca di storia.

I. Da Tortora a Rende
II. Da Botricello a Orsomarso
III. Da Botricello a Crotone
IV. Da San Fili a Montalto Uffugo
V. Da Botricello a Savuto e Grimaldi

Roberto Aiello (Monaco, 1981). In adolescenza ha già le idee chiare sul suo futuro: esplorare il mondo. Lavora nel settore dell’ospitalità vivendo per brevi periodi in diversi Paesi, ma si accorge che non sa quasi niente della sua terra d’origine; decide dunque di partire alla scoperta della Calabria.

Giuseppina Mazzei (Catanzaro, 1987). Dopo i primi anni d’infanzia nella Bassa padana torna con la famiglia nel paese paterno, in Calabria. Qui scopre la passione per i versi e per la prosa. Ha insegnato filosofia e storia, ora si divide tra il lavoro di ricerca per un’università finlandese e la stesura dei suoi manoscritti.

 

White Fragility: Why It's So Hard for White People to Talk About Racism by Robin DiAngelo and Michael Eric Dyson

 

 

The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality.

In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt, and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.
