** OVER 300,000 COPIES SOLD!! ** Number 1 Amazon BEST SELLER over the last 74 weeks! I took home more in a year than the CEOs of McDonalds, IKEA, Ford, Motorola, and Yahoo....combined....as a kid in my twenties....using the $100M Offer method. It works. And it will work for you. Not that long ago though, my business had gotten so bad that I literally couldn't even give my services away for free. At the end of each month, I would look at my bank account hoping to see progress (but there wasn't). I knew something had to change...but what? Over the next 48 months, I went from losing money to making $36 for every $1 spent. In that time period, we generated over $120,000,000 across four different industries: service, e-commerce, software, and brick & mortar. But, unlike everyone else, we didn't have great funnels, great ads, or a wealthy niche. In fact, we didn't even send emails until we had crossed $50M in sales(!). Instead, we were able to do this one thing really well....we created offers so good, people felt stupid saying no. Here's exactly what this book will show you how to do:How To Charge a Lot More Than You Currently Are... a- The Tiny Market Big Money Process we use to laser focus on niche markets overflowing with cash b- The "Unfair" Pricing formula....how we 100x'd our pricing (and got more people to say yes....for real) c- The Value Flip...so you never get price compared again (that's a promise) d- The Virtuous Cycle of Price...use it to outspend your competition (for good) while using your product to attract the best talent. How To Make Your Product So Good, Prospects Find A Way To Pay For It a- The Unbeatable Value Equation....to make what you sell worth more than your prospects have ever received b- The Delivery Cube....to make delivering your products and services cost less but provide more c- The Trim & Stack Hack....to maximize profit using the absolute best delivery methods. (This has never been shared publicly and was how we made $17M in profit on $28M in revenue in a year when I was 28 years old). How To Enhance Your Offer So Much, Prospects Buy Without Hesitating a- The Scarcity Stack....how to use the three different types of scarcity in every offer you make (without lying) to get people to buy the moment you ask b- The "Everyday" Urgency Blueprint... to get prospects to buy RIGHT NOW, using everyday life to create real, ethical time pressure c- Unbeatable Bonuses...and watch your prospects' hesitations melt away as they begin reading their credit cards to you before you even finish! d- God-mode Guarantees...so good they make anyone say yes (even people who would never normally consider buying). I'll show you how to stack and layer all 4 types of guarantees together. I even give you my 13 favorite guarantees word-for-word to swipe for yourself. e- Magic Naming Formula to get the absolute highest response rates and conversion rates from everything you do to get new clients and so much more... The methods contained within this book are so simple, so instantaneous, and so effective, it's as if they work by magic. If you implement even one tactic in this book, you'll see the change in your prospects' demeanor. And you'll know the $100M Offer method worked when you start hearing "What do I need to do to move forward?" ...before you even ask for the sale.

Bernhard Jülg dürfte heute nur noch einigen Linguisten als Herausgeber von J.S. Vaters Bibliographie der Grammatiken und Lexika (1847) und einigen klassischen Philologen als Professor an den Universitäten Lemberg, Krakau und Innsbruck bekannt sein. Berühmt war er jedoch als Pionier der Mongolistik. Nachdem er 1847 sein Doktorat von der Universität Kiel für eine Skizze der kalmükischen Grammatik erhalten hatte und damit wohl der erste Doktor in diesem Fach überhaupt war, wollte I.J. Schmidt (1779-1847), der Begründer der Mongolistik in Europa, Jülg zu seinem Nachfolger an der Petersburger Akademie der Wissenschaften machen, was sein vorzeitiger Tod aber verhinderte. Das Kalmükische blieb indes für Jülg ein Leben lang sein Hauptinteresse, er sammelte und kopierte kalmükische Manuskripte und veröffentlichte die Erzählungszyklen Arji Borji und Siddhi-Kür in mongolischer bzw. kalmükischer Version mit deutscher Übersetzung. Für diese Publikation mussten mongolische und kalmükische Schrifttypen geschnitten werden, für deren Finanzierung Jülg die Österreichische Akademie und einen Innsbrucker Buchhändler gewinnen konnte. In Jülgs Korrespondenz mit dem berühmten Sprachwissenschaftler Hans Conon von der Gabelentz lässt sich die Lebensgeschichte dieses unermüdlichen Gelehrten beispielhaft nachvollziehen und zugleich spiegelt sie die Entwicklung der Sprachstudien im Deutschland des 19. Jahrhunderts wider.

African American educators shaped a role for themselves in the larger civil rights movement by striving for inclusion, on equal footing, in the National Education Association (NEA). This book explores the relationship between the NEA, the nation’s largest teacher organization, and the predominately black American Teachers Association, and illustrates how African American educators helped to redefine the NEA’s core ideology to include the support of policies, practice, and politics that promoted educational equity for children and educators who have been historically marginalized. Examining heated debates in African American communities and in the NEA, and the immediate and long-term effects of inclusion on educators and public school children, this book reveals teacher associations as something more than labor unions and educators as activists for educational equity, while it documents the perils, disappointments, and advantages of professional cohesion. The book’s documentation of leadership in particularly challenging settings fills a void in literature for teacher preparation and educational leadership programs.

Eine »öffentliche Biographie« Arthur Schnitzlers im Spiegel der Zeit - in bislang unerforschten Interviews, Meinungen und Protesten. Arthur Schnitzler gab angeblich keine Interviews, vermied es, Umfragen zu beantworten und äußerte sich nicht öffentlich. Doch über 180 weitgehend vergessene, bislang unerforscht Texte widerlegen diese Behauptung und bieten ein neues Bild seiner öffentlichen Person. Die Interviews, Meinungsäußerungen und Leserbriefe belegen Schnitzlers Bedeutung als Leserbriefschreiber und Interviewpartner für seine Zeitgenossinnen und Zeitgenossen. Martin Anton Müllers Edition stellt eine »öffentliche Biografie« dar, die dokumentiert, was man schon zu Lebzeiten von der Privatperson Schnitzlers wissen konnte. Der ausführliche Kommentar erläutert Fakten und Hintergründe, das Register erleichtert den Zugang und das Nachwort bietet eine vorzügliche Überblicksdarstellung. Insgesamt ergibt sich aus dieser Edition ein überraschendes Bild des berühmten Autors Arthur Schnitzler, der entgegen seiner angeblichen Zurückhaltung, in der Öffentlichkeit ein engagierter und eloquenter Gesprächspartner und Schriftsteller war.

Walter Fuchs (1902-1979) war einer der profiliertesten deutschen Sinologen, der dank seiner langen Tätigkeit in China und der Mandschurei auch über hervorragende Kenntnisse des Japanischen und des Mandschu verfügte. Die im dritten und letzten Teil der Fuchs gewidmeten Gesamtdarstellung veröffentlichten Briefwechsel zeichnen nicht nur sein Leben und seine Arbeit in den Jahren 1958-1979 nach, sondern belegen auch, dass Fuchs in sehr starkem Maße an der Entwicklung der ostasiatischen Studien in Deutschland beteiligt war; dabei ist besonders seine Rolle bei der Betreuung der Zeitschrift Oriens extremus zu erwähnen, die federführend von seinem Freund, Kollegen und Korrespondenzpartner Wolfgang Franke (1912-2007) herausgegeben wurde. Die Briefe an Martin Gimm (geb. 1930), Fuchs' Schüler und Nachfolger auf dem Kölner Lehrstuhl, geben Einblicke in sein Leben auf seinem Sommersitz in Brixen und zeigen ihn als Anreger und Ermutiger. Zugleich verweisen sie auf seine laufenden Arbeiten, auf Reisen und Kontakte. Ein zusätzlicher Dokumententeil belegt Fuchs' ursprüngliche Berufung auf den neu errichteten Münchener Lehrstuhl und das Auswahlverfahren für die Nachfolge von Erich Haenisch (1880-1966). Der Band ist durchweg annotiert; chinesische Zeichen sowie Transkriptionen sind beigefügt. Ein Namenregister erleichtert den Zugang.

This book is about Keats' odes of the spring and autumn 1819. The author employs close reading to shed new light on the development, through struggle within the images, of each ode and the ode sequence. She shows how, as an outcome of this struggle, Keats achieves a new understanding of poetry's possibilities, of the dialectical nature of life and the historical process.

This book, based on new research in the Spanish archives, is the first full-length account of the activities of the linajudos, genealogists whose occupation was to scrutinize ancestries and to extort money from candidates for offices and honors who, in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spain, had to prove that they were not of converso (that is, Jewish) descent. In Seville many of the patrician families that dominated the transatlantic trade and governed the city in this period had intermarried with the conversos or were themselves of similar origin. This book views the linajudo phenomenon as part of the wider problem of the assimilation of the conversos into sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spanish society.

Die Texte des Buches sind im Kontext einer medien- und kulturaufmerksamen Fremd- und Zweitsprachendidaktik verankert und stellen Aspekte heraus, die in der Diskussion zum didaktischen Potenzial von Linguistic Landscapes noch wenig Beachtung fanden. Die thematische Breite reicht vom interkulturellen Lernen über historisches Lernen in Verbindung mit dem Konzept der Erinnerungsorte, Sprach-, Kultur- und Literaturdidaktik, Fremd- und Zweitspracherwerbsforschung bis zur Sprach(en)politik. Die Fülle an Anwendungsfällen und Reflexionen zeigt, in welche Richtungen sich das lebendige Forschungsfeld Linguistic Landscape aus der Perspektive der Fremdsprachendidaktik entwickeln könnte. Das Buch stellt einen wichtigen Beitrag zu einer Didaktik der Linguistic Landscape dar. (Ass. Prof. Dr. Silke Pasewalck, Universität Tartu)

Nobel laureate Erwin Schrödinger was one of the most distinguished scientists of the twentieth century; his lectures on the history and philosophy of science are legendary. 'Nature and the Greeks' and 'Science and Humanism' makes available for the first time in many years the texts of two of Schrödinger's most famous lecture series. 'Nature and the Greeks' offers a comprehensive historical account of the twentieth-century scientific world picture, tracing modern science back to the earliest stages of Western philosophic thought. 'Science and Humanism' addresses some of the most fundamental questions of the century: what is the value of scientific research? And how do the achievements of modern science affect the relationship between material and spiritual matters? A foreword by Roger Penrose sets the lectures in a contemporary context, and affirms they are as relevant today as when they were first published.

In fact, his hometown is under siege from forces of darkness far beyond his imagination. And only he, with a small group of allies, can hope to contain the evil that is growing within the borders of this small New England town.With this, his second novel, Stephen King established himself as an indisputable master of American horror, able to transform the old conceits of the genre into something fresh and all the more frightening for taking place in a familiar, idyllic locale.

Stephen King's second novel, the classic vampire bestseller 'SALEM'S LOT, tells the story of evil in small-town America. 'Salem's Lot is a small New England town with white clapboard houses, tree-lined streets, and solid church steeples. That summer in 'salem's Lot was a summer of homecoming and return; spring burned out and the land lying dry, crackling underfoot. Late that summer, Ben Mears returned to 'salem's Lot hoping to cast out his own devils and found instead a new, unspeakable horror. A stranger had also come to the Lot, a stranger with a secret as old as evil, a secret that would wreak irreparable harm on those he touched and in turn on those they loved. All would be changed forever: Susan, whose love for Ben could not protect her; Father Callahan, the bad priest who put his eroded faith to one last test; and Mark, a young boy who sees his fantasy world become reality and ironically proves the best equipped to handle the relentless nightmare of 'Salem's Lot. This is a rare novel, almost hypnotic in its unyielding suspense, which builds to a climax of classic terror. You will not forget the town of 'salem's Lot nor any of the people who used to live here.

Jan Herman Insinger was a well-known character in the history of Egyptology, mainly because his name has been linked forever with a famous demotic wisdom papyrus now in Leiden. Although he is mentioned by many of his contemporaries, biographical notes on Insinger rarely surpass a few lines and can be quite inaccurate. However, a lot of information can be gathered from the Archives of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden and other sources, both published and unpublished ones. These documents enable us to sketch a brief biography of this fascinating figure. Former studies by the present author dealt with Insinger¿s activities as a photographer and a traveller. The present volume focuses on Insinger¿s activities as an art collector. Insinger can be regarded as a maecenas of the Leiden Museum. Thus, a study of this aspect of his manifold interests is mainly relevant for the information it provides on the growth of the Egyptian treasures in Leiden.

(Dis)Orientation appears to be a phenomenon that is connected to media in numerous respects: today, finding your way in the world often means finding your way with the help of as well as within media, which in turn creates new virtual realms of (dis)orientation. This book deals with recent media technologies and structures (navigation devices, databases, transmediality) and unconventional narrative patterns (narrative complexity, plot twists, non-linearity), using the ambivalent concept of (dis)orientation as a shared focus to analyse various phenomena of contemporary media, thereby raising overarching questions about current mediascapes.

Camus' sparse parable about the human condition is one of the great stories of the 20th Century, here adapted for the stage by Booker prize winner Ben Okri. A faceless man who can no longer pretend, Mersault commits a senseless murder under the glare of the Algerian sun. On trial he feels distanced from proceedings, he is castigated for not expressing remorse, for not crying at his mother's funeral, and is forced to confront the hypocrisy and injustice of society. In an age where we are being increasingly told what to feel, The Outsider is a blast of uncompromising honesty. Albert Camus, French novelist, essayist, philosopher and Nobel laureate, was one of the most influential thinkers of the 20th Century. Ben Okri, author of The Famished Road, is one of contemporary literature's most important writers. This adaption brings them together for a rare dramatisation of one of modern literature's most celebrated works.

(L)earn Bitcoin is the best Bitcoin book to decide why and how you should begin to invest in Bitcoin. It presents Bitcoin in all its facets from technical, economical, political and social implications to how it evolves in the current monetary landscape. It provides a step-by-step roadmap to navigate this new financial world and sets you up with concrete recommendations on bitcoin investing, earning and storing bitcoin. Ascending the staircase of financial sovereignty will grant you personal freedom and control over your bitcoin. In this book you will find answers to the questions of what money is, where it comes from, its history, blockchain technology and Bitcoin specifically. It gives answers to the why and how to use Bitcoin while debunking popular myths and misunderstandings surrounding cryptocurrencies. You'll find a deep dive into Bitcoin's development since its inception in 2008 and an outlook on the future of cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin. While mainstream media and economic pundits in the Western world think that it's just a tool for speculation, my goal is to spread the word about Bitcoin as an enabler of financial fairness and social change. What goes unmentioned in most other publications are the positive real world implications that a truly permissionless, uncensorable, neutral digital asset with a fixed supply offers. Later the cryptocurrency book focuses on the more practical applications of Bitcoin (BTC) and how you can safely acquire and store it. You will learn how to gain confidence by starting with small amounts, how to minimize the existing risks and proceed strategically and efficiently in storing your wealth for the long-term. This is neither financial advice, nor a trading guide to the thousands of Altcoins in existence. If you are only interested in short-term gains, treating money like you're gambling in a casino, this book is not for you. It's for people who want to (l)earn and understand the fundamentals of Bitcoin and control their funds in a self-sovereign manner.

In a world where women seemingly have more choices than ever, society continues to exert historical stigmas and pressures when it comes to having children. We define women by whether they embrace or reject motherhood; whether they can give birth or not.Drawing on her own experiences as a woman of South Asian heritage, behavioural scientist Pragya Agarwal interrogates the thinking behind this. Extremely open in its honesty and meticulously researched, (M)otherhood probes themes of infertility, childbirth and reproductive justice, and makes a powerful and urgent argument for the need to tackle society's obsession with women's bodies and fertility.

Diese Publikation erscheint begleitend zur von Dorothea Trappel und Hektor Peljak kuratierten Ausstellung (No) Funny Games im Rahmen der Klima Biennale Wien 2026. Betrachter*innen werden mit dem Schein des Leichten und Schönen verführt, doch gleichzeitig verbirgt sich eine unbequeme Realität dahinter. Werke im öffentlichen Raum wirken wie Idyllen, sind jedoch kritische Reflexion über den Zustand unserer Welt. Referenzen wie die Filme Funny Games oder Dr. Strangelove liefern nicht nur den Titel, sondern auch die Haltung der Ausstellung: Ein Spiel mit Konventionen, Ironie und Inszenierung - und zugleich ein bitterer Ernst. Die Werke der Ausstellung spielen mit Freude als Widerstand, der Lust am Leben trotz der Dystopie. Dabei stellen sie nicht nur die Rolle von Kunst im öffentlichen Raum infrage, sondern auch die Tendenz, Kunst im Kontext von Klimadiskursen zu instrumentalisieren, ohne tatsächliche Konsequenzen zu ziehen. Künstler*innen:Margot Pilz, Pia Sirén, Zheng Mahler, Dominik Eulberg, Marcin Nowicki, Eva Seiler, Folke Köbberling, River Claure, FutureLeaks, NEVERCREW, Romuald Hazoumè

The exhibition "(RE)VERSVS. Reuse and Redemption in the Patrimony of the Vatican Library and in the Art of Sidival Fila" is the result of a profound reflection by the artist and the curators of the Vatican Library on the theme of reuse - redemption, conceived as two different, and at times opposing, possibilities of using and valorising an ancient, or simply previous or extraneous, material in a new and different way. It presents a recovery of fragments and discards of manuscripts, textiles, marbles and other materials that, in the case of reuse, defines their new purpose, while in the case of redemption celebrates them in themselves, in their ontological value, regardless of their possible new utility. The exhibition concludes in the Sala Barberini with the site-specific installation 'Natura Artificialis', a work that represents the Brazilian artist's integral vision, the starting point of his critical view of the human race and the erroneous idea of nature seen solely as being at the service of man. Ed.: Cristiano Grisogoni. Text: Giacomo Cardinali, Emanuele Coccia, Emanuele Dattilo, Simona De Crescenzo, Delio Vania Proverbio.

This volume launches an interdisciplinary series on transoceanic literary and cultural entanglements, offering readers in-depth insights into the complex interactions between oceans and cultural practices. From a literary and cultural studies standpoint, it reveals how seas function as active spaces of entanglement, migration, memory, environmental crises, and infrastructure. The contributions integrate decolonial, ecological, and epistemological perspectives to understand oceans as multifaceted agents of global history and contemporary realities. Target audiences include researchers and students in literature, cultural, and environmental studies, as well as those interested in transnational and decolonial approaches to globalization and oceanic spaces.

A brilliantly witty and insightful analysis of how kindness culture is used against women. Using the #JustBeKind trend of the 2020s as a starting point, (Un)kind explores how traditional beliefs about women's 'kind' nature have been repackaged for an age that remains dependent - socially, politically, economically - on female self-sacrifice while finding the concept outdated and essentialist. Looking at the various guises under which kindness culture is sold to women and girls - from play to self-help, social justice activism to empowerment - Victoria Smith argues that the pressure on women and girls has not decreased, but instead been incorporated into the 'work' of feminism. (Un)kind analyses the way in which this phenomenon ultimately distorts relationships, harming not just those coerced into performing 'kindness work' but the supposed recipients of their services. Kindness culture supports the backlash against feminism while claiming to represent feminism's - and women's - true nature. It is, at heart, unkind.'Erudite, blisteringly smart and profoundly compassionate...
