Manuel Strong
James and Florine Manuel, an ordinary African-American couple, left behind an extraordinary legacy. Their story contradicts the stereotypes of Black people in the United States of America. Following the example of their ancestors who rose from slavery, they encouraged their children and everyone around them to also become high achievers. But they never boasted about their accomplishments—and they gave all the credit to God. One of the most special things about them is how they applied their desire and drive. They did it in love for each other and for their children. This love resulted in an enduring marriage, and they raised their children in love even when times were hard. As you read about their lives, you’ll walk away with this pivotal truth: All human beings can achieve great things despite obstacles. They can also overcome negative stereotypes. Manuel Strong is only one more story on the mountain of others, but it comes at a time when America is struggling to confront the legacy of its past.
Echo of Jesus' Prayer - In the Church
Jesus prayed that his followers would be one. This book answers the questions, has this prayer been answered or is it yet to be answered? Oneness was so important to Jesus that it was one of the major themes of his prayer with and for his disciples shortly before he went to the Garden of Gethsemane where he was betrayed. When something is one's last prayer, be sure that it is of utmost importance and highest priority. This book's intent is to clearly present his prayer, explaining the astonishing background behind it, emphasizing the significance of oneness, elaborating on the weight he placed on it, stating the amazing impact he predicted oneness would bring, highlighting its strategic impo...
Ethnobotany
Ethnoecology has blossomed in recent years into an important science because of the realization that the vast body of knowledge contained in both indigenous and folk cultures is being rapidly lost as natural ecosystems and cultures are being destroyed by the encroachment of development. Ethnobotany and ethnozoology both began largely with direct observations about the ways in which people used plants and animals and consisted mainly of the compilation of lists. Recently, these subjects have adopted a much more scientific and quantitative methodology and have studied the ways in which people manage their environment and, as a consequence, have used a much more ecological approach. This manual...
Cities, Networks, and Global Environmental Governance
As a result of global dynamics—the increasing interconnection of people and places—innovations in global environmental governance haved altered the role of cities in shaping the future of the planet. This book is a timely study of the importance of these social transformations in our increasingly global and increasingly urban world. Through analysis of transnational municipal networks, such as Metropolis and the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group, Sofie Bouteligier's innovative study examines theories of the network society and global cities from a global ecology perspective. Through direct observation and interviews and using two types of city networks that have been treated separately in the literature, she discovers the structure and logic pertaining to office networks of environmental non-governmental organizations and environmental consultancy firms. In doing so she incisively demonstrates the ways in which cities fulfill the role of strategic sites of global environmental governance, concentrating knowledge, infrastructure, and institutions vital to the function of transnational actors.
