In the spring of 2020, Tyrel Nelson lost his mother. And he lost his job in the summer. Isolated by the pandemic and hamstrung by agony, he felt forgotten by the world as it marched on. Unhappy, uneasy, and unemployed, he began picking himself up by putting down his thoughts on a yellow legal pad. Battling through his bereavement on paper proved to be cathartic. But he needed more – a writing project he could sink his grief into. So he sorted through many of the narratives he had composed over the last dozen years. Reflecting and reexamining his existence, Tyrel brainstormed what to do with the pieces which pulled at him the most. A compilation describing significant individuals, places, and moments during the past decade-plus started to take shape. Travels and Tribulations is an emotional collection of vignettes, which commences in 2008 and concludes in 2020. While readers follow him on excursions in North, Central, and South America, they also accompany Nelson to the peaks and valleys of his personal life. Profoundly impacted by the deaths of both his parents, the author guides the audience through his anguish, depicting reminiscences and regrets as he openly tries to make sense of everything.

If you work at a multinational company, at some point you may be asked to travel the world to maintain or install equipment or seek to boost your firms reputation. It happened to Andrew Mackay, and he was unprepared from the moment he stepped on an helicopter to go to a Chevron platform in the North Sea, when everyone was dressed for freezing temperatures except him. Working as what he calls a travelling prostitute, Mackay was surprised to find that almost all of the time, he was on his own. Higher-ups never asked about his well-being, and he had to quickly adapt to indigenous populations, cultures, and traditions. In sharing his experiences while working abroad, he hopes to prepare other employees at multinational companies who may not appreciate what traveling on the job entails. If your organisation has not done its homework in advance, your very life could be at risk. From being kidnapped at an airport, left stranded, forced to spend extra time in strange places, and navigating dangerous situations, youll learn how to survive when working overseas in Trials and Tribulations of a Travelling Prostitute.

"Native to the New World, the potato was domesticated by Andean farmers, probably in the Lake Titicaca basin, almost as early as grain crops were cultivated in the Near East. Full of essential vitamins and energy-giving starch, the potato has proved a valuable world resource. Curious Spaniards took the potato back to Europe, from whence it spread worldwide. Today, the largest potato producer is China, with India not far behind. To tell the potato's story, Lang has done fieldwork in South America, Asia, and Africa."--Jacket.

The Book of Tribulations is the earliest complete Muslim apocalyptic text to survive, and as such has considerable value as a primary text. It is unique in its importance for Islamic history: focusing upon the central Syrian city of Hims, it gives us a picture of the personalities of the city, the tribal conflicts within, the tensions between the proto-Muslim community and the majority Christian population, and above all details about the wars with the Byzantines. Additionally, Nu`aym gives us a range of both the Umayyad and the Abbasid official propaganda, which was couched in apocalyptic and messianic terms.
