The Truth of Yoga
A succinct, approachable guide to the origins, development, key texts, concepts, and practices of yoga. Yoga is practiced by many millions of people worldwide and is celebrated for its mental, physical, and spiritual benefits. And yet, as Daniel Simpson reveals in The Truth of Yoga, much of what is said about yoga is misleading. For example, the word “yoga” does not always mean union. In fact, in perhaps the discipline’s most famous text—the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali—its aim is described as separation: isolating consciousness from everything else. And yoga is not five thousand years old, as is commonly claimed; the earliest evidence of practice dates back about twenty-five hundred years. (Yoga may well be older, but no one can prove it.) The Truth of Yoga is a clear, concise, and accessible handbook for the lay reader that draws upon abundant recent scholarship. It outlines these new findings with practitioners in mind, highlighting ways to keep traditions alive in the twenty-first century.

Bank Job
Art hacks life when two filmmakers launch a project to cancel more than £1m of high-interest debt from their local community. Bank Job is a white-knuckle ride into the dark heart of our financial system, in which filmmaker and artist duo Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn risk their sanity to buy up and abolish debt by printing their own money in a disused bank in Walthamstow, London. Tired of struggling in an economic system that leaves creative people on the fringes, the duo weave a different story, both risky and empowering, of self-education and mutual action. Behind the opaque language and defunct diagrams, they find a system flawed by design but ripe for hacking. This is the inspiring story of how they listen and act upon the widespread desire to change the system to meet the needs of many and not just the few. And for those among us brave enough, they show how we can do this too in our own communities one bank job at a time.
AS Physics Mechanics Materials and Waves
This is a new book for Unit 2 AQA students or similar courses. It covers all the main concepts in the course for Unit 2 and has lots of pictures and diagrams with equations clearly put for quick revision. The whole document is rich with images of real equipment and crucial concepts. Printed the material covers 88 A4 pages, 13,000 words and many graphics and screen captures from teachers notes. It is an amazing culmination of all the experience of a Physics teacher of 12 years teaching experience. The title is also very cheap compared to the main publishers and worth a try!
Fo(u)nd Memories
From the inventive author of Paper Birds and Other Flying Objects comes a story collection unlike any other. Inspired by found photographs, Daniel Powell's stories explore childhood and growing up; family, both real and surrogate; memory; love; loss; and the uniquely human intersection of creativity, science, art, history, ingenuity, and imagination.Many of the characters in these stories are searching for a kind of earthly sacredness in -- or in spite of -- their fractured relationships, worlds, or selves, revealing Powell's fascination with not only the fissures in our lives but the wonder and possibility present in the brokenness.Fo(u)nd Memories is an invitation to take a journey through the yin and yang of life, examining the pains and joys with curiosity and empathy and leaving in its wake the sense that understanding, kindness, and love are all we truly need.
How to Live As Citizens of Heaven Volume I
How to Live as Citizens of Heaven is a compilation of letters to the body of Christ reminding them that believers are in this world, but not of this world.

We are subject to God, Jehovah, His Son, Christ Jesus, the King of King and the Lord of Lords and governed by the Holy Spirit. Citizens of Heaven is the God-ordained vision of Prophet Daniel Powell, Sr. and Prophetess Esther Powell, who, in addition to these letters on faith and conduct, etc., produced an audio series on character traits of those who walk in their citizenship. Volume I addresses the foundation of our faith, which is Christ Jesus. Citizens of Heaven as not being conformed to this world's system of thinking, but interacting in the earth as kings and priests, Citizens of Heaven.
Race, Class, and Community in Southern Labor History
As evidence by the quality of these essays, the field of southern labor history has come into its own.
Conflict of Interests
On the basis of extensive archival research, Alan Draper illuminates the role organized labor played in the southern civil rights movement. He documents the substantial support the AFL-CIO and its southern state councils gave to the struggle for black equality, suggesting that labor's political leadership recognized an opportunity in the civil rights movement. Frustrated in their efforts to organize the South, labor leaders understood the potential of newly enfranchised blacks to challenge conservative southern Democrats. At the same time, white union members in the South were more interested in defending their racial privileges than in allying themselves with blacks. An explosive tension developed between labor's political leadership, desperate to create a party system in the South that included blacks, and a rank and file determined to preserve southern Democracy by excluding blacks. This book looks at the ways that tension was expressed and ultimately resolved within the southern labor movement.
