The text is characterized by its accessible prose and structured layout, featuring profiles of different professions, interviews with women in various vocations, and guidance on career choices that reflect the changing societal landscape of the time. Marjory MacMurchy Lady Willison, an advocate for womens rights and education, drew from her experiences and the prevailing socio-economic climate when penning this work. As a member of the Canadian Womens Press Club and an educator, she understood the challenges women faced in accessing career opportunities and navigated her own journey in a male-dominated environment. Her dedication to empowering Canadian women fueled her commitment to vocational guidance, making this book an essential resource. This book is highly recommended for educators, historians, and readers interested in gender studies, as it not only documents the early struggles and achievements of women in the workforce but also serves as an empowering tool for contemporary readers facing similar societal challenges.

His passion for scientific discovery and social reform shines through in this work, making it a valuable resource for those interested in history, philosophy, or personal development. I highly recommend The Call of the Twentieth Century to readers who appreciate thought-provoking literature that encourages introspection and growth. Jordans words are as relevant today as they were over a century ago, making this book a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration and guidance in a rapidly changing world.

As meat is one of the most important items of American diet, its price is a matter of moment to every housewife. Comparisons between the cost of live animals and the price per pound of meat sometimes lead to the conclusion that the existing margin is too wide and that possibly the profits of the middleman are too large.After fair analysis, the housewife realizes that a live animal is not all meat and, furthermore, that the meat carcass is not all steaks and rib roasts. A comparison, therefore, between the live cost of meat animals per pound and the cost per pound of a tenderloin is misleading, if it results in any conclusions relative to margins.Then we must reckon with the wide difference in grades of meat. We cannot correctly estimate the cost of a steak cut from a prime beef by that of a steak from a grass-fed cow. There are several grades of meat, depending upon the nature and feeding, each wholesome and nutritious, but some demanding more special cooking than others.About fifty-five per cent of a steer is meat; the remainder includes the hide and various other by-products, which, except the hide, are not worth in their primary state anywhere near as much per pound as they cost alive. The fifty-five per cent of the animal which is meat must, therefore, carry the greater portion of the original cost. That is why a steer carcass might be sold by the packer for twenty cents a pound and still fail to pay a profit, even though the live animal cost the packer only twelve cents a pound. The casual observer, noting a difference of eight cents a pound between the live animal and the carcass, might say a sixty-six per cent increase in price is unduly large; but a little deeper study develops that the return from the carcass in this instance would fail to equal the amount paid for the live steer.When a retailer buys a carcass, he purchases neck meat as well as loins; chucks as well as rounds.

The Boys Book of Trades and the Tools Used in Them is an intriguing exploration of various trades, presented with an accessible and engaging literary style that captivates young readers. This work combines vivid illustrations and clear descriptions, effectively demystifying the tools and techniques of various professions - from carpentry to blacksmithing. Situated within the broader context of 19th-century educational literature, this book serves both as a manual for aspiring tradespeople and a guide to the burgeoning industrial society of the time, emphasizing the significance of craftsmanship and vocational skills. The author, writing under the anonymity typical of the era, likely sought to fill a pedagogical void in imparting practical knowledge to a youthful audience. This could stem from a societal shift, where the demand for skilled labor rose alongside industrial advancement. The authorAos endeavor reflects a growing recognition of the importance of trade skills in everyday life, particularly during the Victorian era, when the foundations for modern professions were being laid. Recommended for educators, parents, and curious young minds alike, this book is an invaluable resource that fosters an appreciation for the trades. It not only inspires creativity but also serves as a pragmatic introduction to various professions, encouraging readers to explore their interests in craftsmanship and labor.

In "The Boarding School; Lessons of a Preceptress to Her Pupils," Hannah Webster Foster employs a didactic narrative style that reflects the pedagogical values of early American education. This epistolary novel, published in 1798, presents a series of letters and lessons delivered by a preceptress to her students, exploring themes of morality, gender roles, and the significance of education in shaping the character of young women.

Hannah Webster Foster, an early advocate for womens education, draws upon her own experiences and observations as both a writer and a teacher. Living in an era marked by evolving social norms, she recognized the critical role that education played in empowering women and shaping public life. Fosters insights into the struggles and aspirations of her female pupils provide a profound commentary on the societal expectations of the time, enriching the readers understanding of womens roles in the early republic. This compelling narrative is recommended for readers interested in early American literature, feminism, and educational theory. Fosters eloquent prose not only engages the reader but also challenges them to reflect on the transformative power of education and the societal constraints faced by women. "The Boarding School" remains a pivotal text that prompts critical discussions about gender and education that resonate to this day.

It is the most singular of sounds, yet among the most ubiquitous. It is the sound of isolation that has sold itself to millions.Miles Daviss Kind of Blue is the best selling piece of music in the history of jazz, and for many listeners among the most haunting in all of twentieth-century music. It is also, notoriously, the only jazz album many people own. Recorded in 1959 (in nine miraculous hours), there has been nothing like it since. Its atmosphere - slow, dark, meditative, luminous - became all-pervasive for a generation, and has remained the epitome of melancholy coolness ever since.Richard Williams has written a history of the album which for once does not rip it out of its wider cultural context. He evokes the essence of the music - identifying the qualities that make it so uniquely appealing - while making effortless connections to painting, literature, philosophy and poetry. This makes for an elegant, graceful and beautifully-written narrative.

Everyone loves romantic music: the sweet melody of a Schubert song, the heroine dying for love in an Italian opera, the swooning orchestration of a Tchaikovsky symphony. But as Stephen Walsh - author of the highly praised Debussy: A Painter in Sound - points out in this intensely absorbing study, there is infinitely more to romantic music than meets the eye. The Beloved Vision amounts to a complete, entertaining and singularly readable account of the whole phase in music history that has become the mainstay of the twentieth and twenty-first century concert and operatic repertoire, with some little help from earlier times.The narrative begins in the eighteenth century, with C.P.E. Bach, Haydn and the literary movement known as Sturm und Drang, seen as a reaction of the individual artist to the confident certainties of the Enlightenment. The windows are flung open, and everything to do with style, form, even technique, is exposed to the emotional and intellectual weather, the impulses and preferences of the individual composer. Risk taking - the braving of the unknown - was certainly an important part of what the composers wanted to do, as true of Chopin and Verdi as it is of Berlioz and Wagner. Its an exciting, colourful, story, told with passion but also with the precision and clarity of detail for which this author is so widely admired.

The Education Endowment Foundations Teaching and Learning Toolkit describes collaborative learning as an approach which involves pupils working together on activities or learning tasks and in such a way that enables everyone to participate on a collective task that has been clearly assigned. In the context of this book, Cooperative Learning relates to a number of such activities from simple memorising to more complex analysis and debating which are designed to boost learners interdependence, participation and interaction.Drawing upon both research-informed theory and real-world examples, Jakob Werdelin and Drew Howard present both an insightful introduction to Cooperative Learning as a practice and philosophy and a practical guide to classroom application.The authors share their expertise on how to amplify the effect of current pedagogical approaches and schemes of work, simplify performance management as an empowering tool for teachers and leaders, and create an inclusive environment in which every pupil is able to fulfil their learning potential. Jakob and Drew also discuss how Cooperative Learning relates to a range of other aspects of teaching, including assessment, metacognition and Rosenshines Principles.The book focuses on Catch1Partner as an exemplary Cooperative Learning Interaction Pattern (CLIP) as, by fully grasping the principles of staging and running Catch1Partner in its many forms, readers will then be better equipped with the foundational know-how to deploy other CLIPs, such as Sage and Scribe, Word-Round and Rotating Role Reading. The authors also provide a variety of ready-to-photocopy (and downloadable) sample teaching materials, tools, guidelines and an activity transcript in the appendices.Suitable for teachers and leaders in both primary and secondary school settings.

Beggar.If Poverty be a Title to Poetry, I am sure nobody can dispute mine. I own myself of the Company of Beggars; and I make one at their Weekly Festivals at St. Giless. I have a small Yearly Salary for my Catches, and am welcome to a Dinner there whenever I please, which is more than most Poets can say.Player. As we live by the Muses, it is but Gratitude in us to encourage Poetical Merit wherever we find it. The Muses, contrary to all other Ladies, pay no Distinction to Dress, and never partially mistake the Pertness of Embroidery for Wit, nor the Modesty of Want for Dulness. Be the Author who he will, we push his Play as far as it will go. So (though you are in Want) I wish you success heartily.Beggar. This piece I own was originally writ for the celebrating the Marriage of James Chaunter and Moll Lay, two most excellent Ballad-Singers. I have introduced the Similes that are in all your celebrated Operas: The Swallow, the Moth, the Bee, the Ship, the Flower, &c. Besides, I have a Prison-Scene, which the Ladies always reckon charmingly pathetic. As to the Parts, I have observed such a nice Impartiality to our two Ladies, that it is impossible for either of them to take Offence. I hope I may be forgiven, that I have not made my Opera throughout unnatural, like those in vogue; for I have no Recitative; excepting this, as I have consented to have neither Prologue nor Epilogue, it must be allowed an Opera in all its Forms. The Piece indeed hath been heretofore frequently represented by ourselves in our Great Room at St. Giless, so that I cannot too often acknowledge your Charity in bringing it now on the Stage.Player. But I see it is time for us to withdraw; the Actors are preparing to begin. Play away the Overture.Exeunt.

The Beautiful Ones no es solo el tributo a un icono, también es una obra literaria poderosa y original por derecho propio, donde bullen las ideas de Prince, su manera de ver el mundo, su voz y su efigie, su imperecedera ofrenda al mundo.Esta es la historia de superacion y ascenso al estrellato de un artista irrepetible. Escrita de su puño y letra, y acompañada de fotos ineditas, dietarios y apuntes intimos, incluye tambien el conmovedor testimonio autobiografico que Prince comenzo a elaborar poco antes de su inesperada muerte.Prince era un genio de la musica, uno de los creadores mas queridos, versatiles y respetados de nuestro tiempo. Fue un visionario tremendamente original, con una imaginacion capaz de recrear universos enteros, desde el paraiso prometido a ritmo de funk de Uptown hasta los paisajes miticos de Purple Rain, pasando por la psicodelia de Paisley Park. Sin embargo, su creacion mas ambiciosa fue convertir a Prince Rogers Nelson, nacido en Minnesota, en Prince, una de las mayores estrellas del pop de cualquier epoca.The Beautiful Ones nos cuenta como Prince se transformo en Prince: su relato en primera persona nos muestra a un avido joven que decide empaparse primero del mundo que le rodea para luego moldear un personaje, una vision artistica y finalmente una manera de vivir, mucho antes de que sus primeros exitos y la fama lo constriñan y pretendan redefinirle. El libro esta dividido en cuatro partes. La primera es el testimonio autobiografico que Prince escribia antes de su repentina y tragica muerte; son paginas que nos llevan al mundo de su infancia a traves de una prosa lirica y personal. La segunda presenta, a traves de diarios y libretas de recortes, los años formativos de Prince como musico, previos a la publicacion de su primer disco. La tercera nos muestra, en sinceras imagenes, la evolucion de Prince hasta llegar a la cuspide, a su logro artistico mas grande, que descubriremos en la cuarta parte del libro: el tratamiento original y manuscrito de Purple Rain, sin duda la conclusion del proceso de crearse a si mismo emprendido por el artista, que en esta pieza da a las tres secciones previas forma de viaje heroico .El editor del libro, Dan Piepenbring, completa el retrato con una introduccion fascinante y conmovedora sobre como fue colaborar con Prince en sus ultimos meses de vida, en un momento en que el artista medito profundamente sobre como podia revelar al mundo mas detalles de si mismo y de su manera de pensar sin perder el misterio y la mistica que tan cuidadosamente habia tejido a su alrededor. Tambien son de Piepenbring las notas que dotan de contexto a las imagenes del libro.
