In her usual conversational style, Dr. Akanet, through her perspective as a GP (family doctor) and mother to two young children, shares her ups and downs of 2020, while trying to move house. Moving home, particularly when it involves buying or selling a house, has been noted to be one of the three most stressful life events, and doing so during a pandemic would make it even more challenging. 2020 brought with it challenges and changes most of us never expected, taking some of us to almost breaking point. This book will take you through one family’s journey, to discover how they survived such a tough year, and reflect on whether there could really be blessings to count for 2020. Based on true events, with stories about parenting, faith, marriage, patients, estate agents and immigrant perspectives, this book will bring you smiles, tears, inspiration and hope for the days ahead. Book Reviews: “A record of the real-life experiences of one medical family as the novel Coronavirus, emanating from Wuhan in China, slowly embraced the whole world. It is often amusing and sometimes poignant in its detail of her days in the 'new normal' and very surreal world into which we were all suddenly plunged!” - Paul Sheffield “I expected a book about 2020 to be all doom and gloom, but was surprised to find myself laughing out loud at times." - Dr. Anna Nguyen (GP) “Afiniki is not only a talented mother and professional, but an eternal feel-good optimist. If anyone is going to see the good in 2020, it is going to be Afiniki.” - Trish Adudu (BBC presenter) “This book is a very interesting read, and one which I am sure will be of great interest to school students in a couple of generations time” - Margaret Greenway “There’s no doubt that 2020 will live in all of our memories as a year like no other! But what have we learned through it? And what can we take away, moving forward? Have a read of one reflection of not only what was lost this year, but also what was gained.” - Diane Rickard

It is integral to well-being, enabling people to realise their full potential, show resilience amidst adversity, be productive across the various settings of daily life, form meaningful relationships and contribute to their communities. Physical, psychological, social, cultural, spiritual and other interrelated factors contribute to mental health, and there are inseparable links between mental and physical health.” - World Health Organisation "A supremely practical and useful book. Original, palatable, and honest advice based on lived experiences, by a trained professional" - Arup Roy, Lead Surface Design Engineer “Niki writes in a lovely conversational style that makes it sound like a conversation with a friend. The book offers insight into the worldview of the author and how it shapes even the smallest decisions and experiences in her life. It challenges the reader to view life from a different perspective and encourages reflection on what is important. It is hopeful and encouraging in its tone. Power and Praise is worth a read.” - Zainab Oseni, General Practitioner (GP) with a special interest in global health “In this book, Niki gives so many anecdotes of situations/problems she has encountered in her life, followed by extremely helpful suggestions of how she overcame them…Niki is such a prolific writer that once you start reading this or any of her other books they are hard to put down until you reach the end. I highly recommend this book.” - Margaret Greenway, Retired administrator

Can public schools feed themselves? That deceptively simple question is like a fingernail picking at a fray in the fabric of 21st century public education. Fallow Lands of Plenty chronicles one high school’s attempt to feed itself and, in doing so, unravels the fabric of neoliberal education, exposes its logics of dependence and control, and begins to weave a new tapestry of education for community cooperation and resilience. Set during the ongoing transition between post-industrial globalization and the community structures that are to come, this rich narrative moves from furrows of Appalachian red clay soil, to the mountaintop homesteads of elder seed savers, to the conveyor belts of sterilized food sorting machines, and, finally, to a school’s cafeteria on the day that 250 portions of student-grown sweet potatoes were served. Along the way, Fallow Lands centers knowledges of place as well as the literal and metaphorical seeds of relocalized food and education systems. Critical and theoretically informed, the text disobeys the values, purpose and canon of public education and proposes a fledgling pedagogy to address the challenges of the coming age. ENDORSEMENTS: "Eric Klein’s Fallow Lands of Plenty is a stirring manifesto for transforming public schools into centers of learning about community resilience and for transitioning to a “pedagogy of relocalization” that prepares students for the unstructuring of the hegemonic corporate food regime set in motion by climate collapse. What sets Fallow Lands of Plenty apart is the ethic of relational care that informs Klein’s deeply personal style of writing. Incisive, radical, and accessible, the writing uplifts students, teachers, elders, cafeteria women, and extension agents as co-producers of new modes of public schooling in rural Appalachia that foster collective ownership of learning and intergenerational transfers of knowledge cast out by official state curricula." — Anatoli Ignatov, Appalachian State University "A must read for today and tomorrow’s generations. Fallow Lands of Plenty reminds us that our ancestors did things a certain way, for certain reasons, and the survival of this knowledge may very well mean our own." — Heath Robertson, Cherokee Central Schools

As women, we are accustomed to putting others needs ahead of our own. Our daily life can and will cause us to lose focus if we don't create a balance in our lives. Women are remarkable beings. We have the natural ability to multi task. If we aren't careful, multi-tasking several tasks at once becomes the norm. However, because we've done these tasks so long, others begin to expect us to take on tasks that aren't rightfully ours. As a collective group, we have to support one another. When one of us is down, the collective group is here to lift you up. We have to affirm one another. We don't have to compete with our sister. We are all going in the same direction. God has and individual plan for each of us and we can help each other reach our goals. This journal is designed to encourage you for the entire year.

Has the COVID-19 pandemic derailed the global community’s commitment to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals by 2030? Are we heading for environmental collapse? Can we avert a climate catastrophe and enable peace, justice, and shared futures for humanity? These questions call for transformational change. This book explores the root causes of today’s failures and lays out a plan for real-world innovation labs using a SMART future design paradigm to achieve the UN’s 17 sustainability goals and 169 targets. SMART futures is a ‘systems literacy’ approach to problem solving that allows us to address challenges of our VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous) world as an integrated whole. This new paradigm shifts us from silo thinking to systems thinking. With lively storytelling and thought-provoking analysis, Dr. Claire Nelson opens a doorway to the future, and a vision of what success might look like. Her stories from the future present worldviews of the feminine and from the global South, which are often absent from contemporary global futures discourse.

Among scholars who focus on the politics of natural resources, conventional wisdom asserts that resource-scarce states have the strongest interest in securing control over resources. Counterintuitively, however, in Perils of Plenty, Jonathan N. Markowitz finds that the opposite is true. In actuality, what states make influences what they want to take. Specifically, Markowitz argues that the more economically dependent states are on resource extraction rents for income, the stronger their preferences will be to secure control over resources. He tests the theory with a set of case studies that analyze how states reacted to the 2007 exogenous climate shock that exposed energy resources in the Arctic. Given the dangerous potential for conflict escalation in the Middle East and the South China Sea and the continued shrinkage of the polar ice cap, this book speaks to a genuinely important development in world politics that will have implications for understanding the political effects of climate change for many years to come.

You are holding the author's notes on the book of Genesis as he has taught it for more than fifteen years on succeeding Sabbaths and on various venues, both "brick and mortar" and online. Some men have made a mess of what Elohenu (our God) revealed to the patriarchs and prophets, both Old and New Testaments, translating it with the biases of their rabbis or pastors or denominations. Mark is attempting (he even succeeds once in a while) to understand it and teach it as close to El's [God's] original intent as he can get by eliminating those doctrinal biases. (For instance, "God nailed the Law to the cross." There were exactly two things nailed to the Roman torture stake. What were they? Hint: One was Yeshua or Jesus. Matthew 27:37, Mark 15:26, Luke 23:38, John 19:19-look these up and then think.) If that teaser intrigues you, see what Moshe [Moses] has to say in Genesis. There's a lot more than just what's written on the page.

The book is set in the anthropologically much-neglected multi-ethnic interior of Highland Middle India. It is the result of fieldwork done over a period of more than a decade among the Ho, an indigenous community of approximately one million people, who have shared cultural norms and the space of the hilly region of the Chota Nagpur Plateau with other aboriginal (adivasi) and artisan communities for ages. The book explores the structured tapestry of Ho people’s relations and interrelatedness within their culture-specific sociocosmic universe ensuring their social reproduction in the present and affording them the means for and the awareness of living in a world of plenty. This world of abundance – with the Ho as its conceptual centre – includes the Ho’s dead, their complex spirit world and supreme deity, and their tribal and nontribal fellow humans, and it manifests itself in manifold facets of their lives: socially, ritually, economically, and linguistically. "This is an important piece of work. The ethnographic details in it are invaluable. The fieldwork is superb. What comes across so magnificently is that unique quality of the author's human and emotional contact and shared understanding with the people." MICHAEL YORKE: University College, London; Upside Films
