Of Bridges: A Poetic and Philosophical Account by Thomas Harrison English | April 1, 2021 | ISBN: 022673529X | EPUB/PDF | 304 pages | 8.2/16.9 MB "Always," wrote Philip Larkin, "it is by bridges that we live."

Objects in Air : Artworks and Their Outside around 1900 by Margareta Ingrid Christian English | 2021 | ISBN: 022676477X | 249 Pages | PDF | 9.2 MB  Navigating Work and Life Boundaries: Insights for Distributed Knowledge Professionals English | 2021 | ISBN: 3030727580 | 208 Pages | PDF EPUB | 3 MB As organizations continue to adapt and evolve to meet the challenges related to globalization and working with new collaboration technologies to bridge time and space, demands on employees' time and attention continue to increase. Recognizing this problem and its implications, such as increased employee turnover, many companies are seeking ways to help their employees maintain a healthy balance between work and life. This book examines work-life conflict, i.e., the increasing lack of employees' work-life balance, in the context of virtual teams and distributed work. It explores the negative impact on work-life conflict exacerbated by working across time zones, cultures, and geographical spaces. Further, it investigates specific causes of work-life conflict in distributed work environments. For researchers and practitioners in the HRM and OB domains, this book adds to the body of knowledge on work-life conflict, with a unique focus on the role of technology.  Dalya Yafa Markovich, "Nationality and Ethnicity in an Israeli School: A Case Study of Jewish-Arab Students " English | ISBN: 1138613029 | 2019 | 110 pages | PDF | 1527 KB Nationality and Ethnicity in an Israeli School: A Case Study of Jewish-Arab Students explores the intersection of ethnicity, nationality, and social structure which is experienced through schooling and its effects on the performance of disadvantaged students.  English | 2021 | ASIN : B0933LLHKQ | 13 pages | PDF, EPUB | 1.16 MB This book examines representations of violence across the postcolonial world-from the Americas to Australia-in novels, short stories, plays, and films. The chapters move from what appear to be interpersonal instances of violence to communal conflicts such as civil war, showing how these acts of violence are specifically rooted in colonial forms of abuse and oppression but constantly move and morph. Taking its cue from theories in such fields as postcolonial, violence, gender, and trauma studies, the book thus shows that violence is slippery in form, but also fluid in nature, so that one must trace its movement across time and space to understand even a single instance of it. When analysing such forms and trajectories of violence in postcolonial creative writing and films, the contributors critically examine the ethical issues involved in narrating abuse, depicting violated bodies, and presenting romanticized resolutions that may conceal other forms of violence.
