« Dis-moi ce que tu manges, je te dirai ce que tu es » avance Brillat-Savarin dans sa célèbre Physiologie du goût en 1826. « Dis-moi qui tu veux être, je te dirai ce que tu dois boire » lui répondraient aujourd’hui les guides œnologiques. Objets de consommation, de distinction, prescripteurs d’achats et de pratiques, faiseurs de tendances, ils sont aussi de puissants réservoirs d’imaginaires… sexués.À l’origine de ce travail, une intuition : la récente féminisation des chefs d’exploitations à la faveur d’évolutions juridiques et sociales ces cinquante dernières années n’a pas gommé les rapports de pouvoir profondément genrés régissant le monde du vin. Pourtant dans les vignes depuis toujours, main-d’œuvre prisée pour les vendanges ou le ramassage des sarments, les femmes du vin sont en effet restées d’invisibles « aides familiales » jusqu’à l’obtention d’un statut professionnel il y a à peine quelques décennies.Comment les femmes, de la productrice à la consommatrice, sont-elles (ou non) mobilisées dans les discours des guides œnologiques ? Comment leur invisibilisation participe-t-elle à perpétuer une certaine vision de la viticulture française ? C’est ce que propose d’interroger cette recherche, en explorant tout à la fois les dimensions genrées, familiales, patrimoniales et agricoles des discours proposés aux consommateurs.

The first and only comprehensive resource designed to empower everyday people with insider knowledge on moving money for a more equitable economy.The money myths end here. We don't need to choose between creating meaningful wealth for ourselves and our families today, or supporting social movements creating a better tomorrow. We don't all need to become certified financial "experts" to be economically empowered and make a real difference in our communities. And we're far from powerless when it comes to changing the financial system, just because we don't happen to belong to the 1%. Quite the opposite.Financial activism is how everyday people radically reimagine money as a tool for widespread well-being, instead of a weapon of absurdly increasing inequality. It's the antidote to traditional finance that evokes confusion, trauma, and (in the best-case scenario) straight-up boredom. It's how we-the underestimated-collectively resist systems that cause harm to people and the planet for the sake of profit, reclaim wealth that's been stolen, and redesign our relationships with capital and one another, in ways big and small.Going beyond tried financial literacy, The Financial Activist Playbook offers eight accessible, actionable, "choose-your-own-adventure" strategies for readers to experiment with. Drawing on timely insider knowledge from the worlds of impact investing, social justice, and more, Rashid illuminates a treasure trove of stories: demonstrating how people power can flow big bucks out of extractive industries, and into the economy of care and abundance we deserve. Playbook readers will be equipped to start visualizing and influencing the unique networks of wealth all around each of us, with strategies likeShifting collective budgets and bank dollars;Flexing our role as everyday philanthropists;Leveraging the magic of community investment;And so much more.Laced with refreshing humor, empowering exercises, and a steadfast commitment to truth-telling, Rashid takes readers on an energizing ride of financial possibility and practicality that will reverberate for generations to come.Part I: The Promise of Fusion 1.

Building on the success of her classic, bestselling book, Change Your Questions, Change Your Life (over 100,000 copies sold), Marilee Adams shows in this new book how teachers and other education professionals can change their own and their students’ lives by developing an active, inquiring mindset and igniting a lifelong love of learning.Building on the success of her classic, bestselling book, Change Your Questions, Change Your Life, Marilee Adams shows how, by adopting a new mindset, teachers can rekindle their love of teaching and ignite their students with a love of learning.Teaching That Changes Lives is a transformational and practical guide that will enable teachers to make an authentic difference with their students and avoid succumbing to the myriad pressures and challenges of their jobs. Using the storytelling format that proved so successful in her previous book, Adams tells how Emma, a sixth-grade teacher on the verge of quitting her job, learns to cultivate what Adams calls the “Learner Mindset”— having the discipline, curiosity, and courage to consistently ask growth-oriented, open-minded questions of oneself and others—and to avoid the close-minded and critical “Judger Mindset.” Emma transforms her classroom, her relationships with her colleagues, and, most importantly, her students' eagerness for learning and achievement. Teaching is more than imparting facts and skills—it's preparing students for the test of life. Featuring an innovative, easy-to-follow workbook and access to a Learner Mindset online mini-course, this inspiring book will ensure that teachers and students alike become creative, resilient problem solvers, bridge builders, and lifelong learners.ForewordIntroduction: Mindsets for LearningChapter 1: The Alchemy of InquiryChapter 2: Mindsets Make All the DifferenceChapter 3: Mapping the Geography of Our MindsChapter 4: Exploring Learner and Judger MindsetsChapter 5: Thinking with New QuestionsChapter 6: Listening with Learner Ears Chapter 7: Questions Out of the Box Chapter 8: Easy as ABCDChapter 9: Becoming a Resilient LearnerChapter 10: Questioning AssumptionsChapter 11: Surprising Collaborators Chapter 12: Opening to New PossibilitiesChapter 13: Staff Meeting ShowdownChapter 14: The Question that Changes Everything Epilogue: The Five QuestionsWorkbook with Mindset ToolsLearner Mindset Online LearningNotesAcknowledgmentsAbout the AuthorAbout the Inquiry Institute

Discover the ultimate collection of film and TV locations with the next instalment in Lonely Planet's Spotter's Guide series. Featuring locations from more than 100 of the most iconic scenes ever committed to film, we'll show you where incredible moments from Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Thelma & Louise, Game of Thrones and many more favourites were shot. Whether you're sat in the dark of your local cinema, or curled up on the sofa, each film has the rare ability to transport you to amazing destinations around the globe. Inside this book, you'll be able to explore the real-life locations for some of the most famous productions of all time, filmed in countries including Canada, Australia, Jordan, Croatia, Iceland, Japan, New Zealand, Tunisia and India. Many of these locations effortlessly played themselves, while others were disguised as hostile, alien deserts, futuristic cityscapes, or Jedi hideaways. While a film's job is make you forget you're watching one, there are certain locations that can transport you right into the world of a movie. If you want to feel like 007 with a license to kill, you can take a boat out to James Bond Island, otherwise known as Khao Phing Kan, in Thailand, home to The Man with the Golden Gun. If you want to follow in the footsteps of Holly Golightly, then enjoy a coffee and a Danish pastry outside Tiffany's in Manhattan. Or perhaps you'd like to celebrate something momentous by running up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum like Rocky Balboa. Whether you're a film buff, a travel addict, or both, this book will help to convince you that CGI is never a substitute for the real thing.

Après les Histoires de l’aéroport et des alentours, Adrian Voicu nous invite à goûter à l’humour tout aussi savoureux de l’univers familial d’un trio inattendu et attachant : la mère – la Meilleure moitié –, l'enfant – l'Accélérateur de Particules – et le père. L’exercice est ô combien délicat, surtout qu’il implique le courage de l’autodérision et la sincérité de l’écriture. Le paradoxe du bouton d’ouverture de la porte, titre donné par une des histoires racontées par le père-narrateur, est une collection de mini contes remplies d’humanité qui transforme à tout moment le quotidien familial en autant d’occasions de drôlerie, de farces et de petites aventures. Chaque personnage remplit son rôle, chacun met sa patte d’humour qui amoindrit les conflits et adoucit l’inattendu des situations tout en renforçant la tendresse qui lie cette famille formidable. L’auteur excelle dans la maîtrise des formules inattendues et du comique des situations diverses, sa plume capte la lumière ambiante en lui donnant l’éclat truculent d’un feu d’artifice dessinant à chaque page le sourire accueillant d’une écriture enchanteresse. Adrian Voicu, lui, continue à regarder le monde avec ses yeux enfantins et rieurs. Suivre son regard est la plus belle invitation à laquelle il nous convie dans ce nouvel ouvrage.

A traveloque of meanderings of feet and mind through the streets of the Scottish capitalPart travelogue, part psychological self-study, Sam Pickering's Edinburgh Days, or Doing What I Want to Do is an open invitation to be led on a walking tour of Scotland's capital as well as through the labyrinth of the guide's swerving moods and memories. Along the way readers discern as much from Pickering's sensual observations of Scottish lives and landmarks as they do about what befalls the curious mind of an intellectual removed from the relations and responsibilities that otherwise delineate his days.Pickering spent the winter and spring of 2004 on a fellowship at the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities at the University of Edinburgh, making his return to the city after a forty-year absence. Edinburgh Days maps the transition from his life in Connecticut, defined by family, academic appointments, and the recognition of neighbors and avid acolytes, to a temporary existence on foreign soil that is at once unsettlingly isolating and curiously liberating.Torn between labeling himself a tourist or a sojourner, Pickering opts to define himself as an "urban spelunker" and embarks on daily explorations of the city's museums, bookshops, pubs, antique stores, monuments, neighborhoods, and graveyards. His ambling tours include such recognizable sites as Edinburgh Castle, the Palace of Holyroodhouse, Castle Rock, the Museum of Childhood, the National Gallery, the Writers' Museum, the Museum of the People, the Huntly House, the John Knox House, the Royal Botanic Garden, and the Edinburgh Zoo.The holdings of city and university libraries present Pickering with the opportunity to revisit the works of a host of writers, both renowned and obscure, including Robert Louis Stevenson, Samuel Smiles, John Buchan, Tobias Wolfe, Russell Hoban, Patrick White, Hilaire Belloc, and Van Wyck Brooks."I have long been a traveler in little things," he muses, and it is his fascination with minutiae that infuses this collection of essays with the dynamic descriptions, quirky observations, and jesting interludes that bring the historic city to life on the page and simultaneously recall the very best of Pickering's idiosyncratic style.

Do you ever hear about a self-made millionaire in the news and wonder: how did they achieve it? In this book, Brian Tracy walks you through the hidden secrets of what makes self-made millionaires, and shows how anyone, no matter where they are in life at this moment, can become a millionaire.Do you ever hear about a self-made millionaire in the news and wonder: how did they achieve it? In this book, Brian Tracy walks you through the hidden secrets of what makes self-made millionaires, and shows how anyone, no matter where they are in life at this moment, can become a millionaire. The advice in this book is based on Brian Tracy's twenty-five years of research, teaching, and personal experience on the subject of self-made millionaires. Tracy himself used these ideas to rise from humble beginnings to become a millionaire. And Tracy has discovered that all successful people practice these 21 success secrets, whether they're consciously aware of it or not. In The 21 Success Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires Tracy not only identifies and defines each success secret, but also reveals its source and foundation, illustrates how it functions in the world, and shows how to apply it in life and work through specific steps and practical exercises that everyone can use. Easy to read, easy to understand, and easy to apply, this book shows how anyone can cultivate the habits and behaviors that will enable them to achieve not just financial independence, but success in any area of life. Because, as Tracy writes, "The most important part of achieving great success is not the money. It is the kind of person you have to become to earn that money and hold onto it."The Law of Cause and EffectWhat you are about to learn can change your life. These ideas, insights, and strategies have been the springboards to financial success for millions of men and women, young and old, rich and poor. These principles are simple, effective, and fairly easy to apply. They have been tested and proven over and over again, and they will work for you if you will take them and apply them in your own life.We are living at the greatest time in all of human history. More people are becoming wealthy today, starting from nothing, than ever before imagined. There are more than seven million millionaires in America, most of them self-made, and the number is growing by 15 to 20 percent each year. We even have self-made ten millionaires, hundred millionaires, and more than two hundred billionaires. We have never seen this type of rapid wealth creation in all of human history.Here's the best news of all. Virtually everyone starts with nothing. More than 90 percent of all financially successful people today started off broke or nearly broke. The average self-made millionaire has been bankrupt or nearly bankrupt 3.2 times. Most wealthy people failed many times before they finally found the right opportunity that they were able to leverage into financial success. And what hundreds of thousands and millions of other people have done, you can do as well.2The iron law of human destiny is the Law of Cause and Effect. This law is simple yet very powerful. It says that there is a specific effect for every cause. For every action, there is a reaction. This law says that success is not an accident. Financial success is the result of doing certain, specific things over and over again until you achieve the financial independence that you desire.Nature is neutral. The natural world, the marketplace, or our society does not care who you are or what you are. The Law of Cause and Effect says that if you do what other successful people do, you will eventually get the results that other successful people get.And if you don't, you won't. This law says that when you learn the success secrets of self-made millionaires and apply them in your own life, you will experience results and rewards far beyond anything you have accomplished up until now.Here is an important point for you to remember. Nobody is better than you and nobody is smarter than you. Let me repeat that. Nobody is better than you and nobody is smarter than you. Get those thoughts out of your mind. One of the primary reasons for selling yourself short, for underachievement and lack of financial success, is the conviction that people who are doing better than you are better than you. This is simply not the case.The fact is that most self-made millionaires are ordinary people with average educations working at average jobs and living in average neighborhoods in average houses driving average cars. But they have found out what other financially successful people do and they have done those same things over and over again until they achieved the same results. It is no miracle and it is no accident. And when you think the same thoughts and do the same things that self-made millionaires do, you will begin to get the same results and benefits they do. It is simply a matter of cause and effect.There are 21 success secrets of self-made millionaires. Each of these is indispensable to your becoming financially independent. The failure to apply any one of these principles can, by itself, undermine and even destroy your chances for health, happiness, and great prosperity.The good news is that you can learn every one of these principles by practice and repetition, over and over again, until they become as natural to you as breathing in and breathing out. Just as you learned to ride a bicycle or drive a car, you can learn the success secrets of self-made millionaires and apply them in your life. And there are no limits except the limits you place on yourself by your own thinking. Now, let us begin.Preface Introduction: The Law of Cause and Effect Success Secrets 1 Dream Big Dreams 2 Develop a Clear Sense of Direction 3 See Yourself as Self-Employed 4 Do What You Love to Do 5 Commit to Excellence 6 Work Longer and Harder 7 Dedicate Yourself to Lifelong Learning 8 Pay Yourself First9 Learn Every Detail of Your Business10 Dedicate Yourself to Serving Others11 Be Absolutely Honest with Yourself and Others12 Determine Your Highest Priorities and Concentrate on Them Single-Mindedly 13 Develop a Reputation for Speed and Dependability14 Be Prepared to Climb from Peak to Peak 15 Practice Self-Discipline in All Things16 Unlock Your Inborn Creativity 17 Get around the Right People 18 Take Excellent Care of Your Physical Health19 Be Decisive and Action Oriented 20 Never Allow Failure to Be an Option21 Pass the “Persistence Test”Conclusion: Success Is PredictableAbout the AuthorIndex The Millionaire-Maker SeminarBrian Tracy, Speaker, Trainer, Seminar Leader Brian Tracy Audio Learning Programs
