Invisible Women


Book Description

The landmark, prize-winning, international bestselling examination of how a gender gap in data perpetuates bias and disadvantages women. #1 International Bestseller * Winner of the Financial Times and McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award * Winner of the Royal Society Science Book Prize Data is fundamental to the modern world. From economic development to health care to education and public policy, we rely on numbers to allocate resources and make crucial decisions. But because so much data fails to take into account gender, because it treats men as the default and women as atypical, bias and discrimination are baked into our systems. And women pay tremendous costs for this insidious bias: in time, in money, and often with their lives. Celebrated feminist advocate Caroline Criado Perez investigates this shocking root cause of gender inequality in Invisible Women. Examining the home, the workplace, the public square, the doctor’s office, and more, Criado Perez unearths a dangerous pattern in data and its consequences on women’s lives. Product designers use a “one-size-fits-all” approach to everything from pianos to cell phones to voice recognition software, when in fact this approach is designed to fit men. Cities prioritize men’s needs when designing public transportation, roads, and even snow removal, neglecting to consider women’s safety or unique responsibilities and travel patterns. And in medical research, women have largely been excluded from studies and textbooks, leaving them chronically misunderstood, mistreated, and misdiagnosed. Built on hundreds of studies in the United States, in the United Kingdom, and around the world, and written with energy, wit, and sparkling intelligence, this is a groundbreaking, highly readable exposé that will change the way you look at the world.

I Am A Woman, I Am A God


Book Description

My writing, I Am A Woman, I Am A God (not for women only), refers to the concept that God is within us all, including, women. I write about how women have been the most prejudiced people in history of mankind, even today. I talk about how and why it came to be that most women and humanity in general find it difficult to believe the greater power residing within. I have added other understandings I have gained regarding what humanitys belief is, in general, to having "rights" and what having "rights" really means to us as individuals. In addition, my experiential understanding of "choice" along with the concept that "choice" is limited by our lack of knowledge. Concluding with how the above understandings can and does alter your destiny, I have given some insight into the ability we all have to affect our fate. =========================================================== Sample of each chapter - I Am A Woman, I Am A God, (Not for Women Only), Louise Oliverio, author ================================================== CHAPTER 1 I am a Woman, I am a God For many years I had known that God was within me, that I was a God. I thought I believed it. What I didn't know was that there was an attitude in me, which really didn't believe it. The understanding of that came after many years of study in Ramtha's School of Ancient Wisdom. I came to understand my ignorance in that, somewhere in my subconscious mind, I really thought only a man could be God. Why wouldnt I think that, after all it is what women have always been taught? In all the religions, who is God? A man of course! - Well teaching the word of God couldnt come from a woman because too- man- is the representative of God. Isnt he?? Oh! Andwhat about those Gurus - men too arent they? Popes, Priests, Rabbis, etc. Well, where do women fit in the scheme of things? Are we to be forever subservient to God and man? Destiny by Right Destiny by Right was a hard learned lesson for me. The reason it was so hard was because I hadnt known that I had a limitation as to what I had a right to experience, own, be, love, freedom to express and every other good thing one would want for oneself as destiny. Having been born in the united states of America under the auspices of being free and having unalienable rights under God, one necessarily assumes that means free by right to whatever one wants in life (within the guidelines of moral code of course). I had no reason to think otherwise, until I came to understand by and through my being a student of the Ramtha School of Enlightenment Ancient School of Wisdoms basic and absolute teaching that we are gods, creators in personal reality. Somehow though not all my desires or manifestations were realized. If they were, sometimes it didnt last very long in my experiential reality. I was left wondering, why reality occurred that way for me? What were my limitations? CHAPTER 3 Destiny by Choice Who do I want to be? Where do I want to go? What would I like to experience? With whom shall I share my life? These are some of the many questions, without limit, one could ask oneself but what are the answers?.................................... When the smoke is cleared the question remains where do I go from here? Now that I know I can create anything, what will it be? - That perhaps is the hardest question most of us can ask ourselves. We are only limited by our own understanding and knowledge base. Whatwe dont know exists, we cant dream about. The importance of knowledge, therefore, is clearly seen. We don't know what we don't know! CHAPTER 4 Destiny's Time Line So what is our destiny going to be? Can we change it? I have been taught by Ramtha that we most certainly can change it and do with every thought we have. If, however, we have the same old thoughts, then we have the same destiny we started with unfolding in our lives. Time lines are an interesting su




Communion


Book Description

“When truth teller and careful writer bell hooks offers a book, I like to be standing at the bookshop when it opens.” –Maya Angelou Renowned visionary bell hooks explored the meaning of love in American culture with the critically acclaimed bestseller All About Love: New Visions. She continued her national dialogue with the bestselling Salvation: Black People and Love. Now hooks culminates her triumphant trilogy of love with Communion: The Female Search for Love. Intimate, revealing, provocative, Communion challenges every woman to courageously claim the search for love as the heroic journey we must all choose to be truly free. In her trademark commanding and lucid language, hooks explores the ways ideas about women and love were changed by the feminist movement, by women's full participation in the workforce, and by the culture of self-help, and reveals how women of all ages can bring love into every aspect of their lives, for all the years of their lives. Communion is the heart-to-heart talk every woman -- mother, daughter, friend, and lover -- needs to have.

Customizable meal plans and strengthening exercises come together in a comprehensive plan to build a rock-solid fitness foundation as you build lean muscle where you need it most, strengthen bone, and boost power and endurance. Because women’s physiology changes over time, entire chapters are devoted to staying strong and active through pregnancy and menopause. No matter what your sport is—running, cycling, field sports, triathlons—this book will empower you with the nutrition and fitness knowledge you need to be in the healthiest, fittest, strongest shape of your life.
