The Kindness of Strangers: Penniless Across America By Mike McIntyre 2010 | 260 Pages | ISBN: 1495213765 | EPUB | 1 MB What would you do if you had to journey penniless across America, depending only on the kindness of those you met along the way? If you're Mike McIntyre, you might meet...A biker-turned-minister who shares faith, food, and self-defense tips with a stranger on the road...A lady firefighter who used to be a man...A lonely woman who offers a place to spend the night, and in the morning feels the loss of yet another man who leaves her...Stuck in a job he no longer found fulfilling, journalist Mike McIntyre felt his life was quickly passing him by. So one day he hit the road to trek from one end of the country to the other with little more than the clothes on his back and without a single penny in his pocket.Through his travels, he found varying degrees of kindness in strangers from all walks of life--and discovered more about people and values and life on the road in America than he'd ever thought possible.The gifts of food and shelter he received along the way were outweighed only by the touching gifts of the heart--the willingness of many he met to welcome a lonely stranger into their homes...and the discovery that sometimes those who give the most are the ones with the least to spare.

Rob Sullivan, "The Geography of the Everyday: Toward an Understanding of the Given" English | ISBN: 0820351687 | 2017 | 204 pages | EPUB, PDF | 3 MB + 2 MB Anthropologists, psychologists, feminists, and sociologists have long studied the "everyday," the quotidian, the taken-for-granted; however, geographers have lagged behind in engaging with this slippery aspect of reality. Now, Rob Sullivan makes the case for geography as a powerful conceptual framework for seeing the everyday anew and for pushing back against its "givenness": its capacity to so fade into the background that it controls us in dangerously unexamined ways. Drawing on a number of theorists (Foucault, Goffman, Marx, Lefebvre, Hägerstrand, and others), Sullivan unpacks the concepts and perceived realities that structure everyday life while grounding them in real-world cases, such as Nigeria's troubled oil network, the working poor in the United States, China's urban villages, and ultra-high-end housing in London and Cairo.  The Future of Change: How Technology Shapes Social Revolutions by Ray Brescia 2020 | ISBN: 1501748114 | English | 240 pages | PDF | 3 MB In The Future of Change, Ray Brescia identifies a series of "social innovation moments" in American history. Through these moments―during which social movements have embraced advances in communications technologies―he illuminates the complicated, dangerous, innovative, and exciting relationship between these technologies, social movements, and social change. Brescia shows that, almost without fail, developments in how we communicate shape social movements, just as those movements change the very technologies themselves.
