DOWNLOAD EBOOK“Rose explores her myriad inspirations in this collection of twenty-five fashionable knitting projects that show the potential in beautiful yarn . . . marvelous.” —Library Journal Cirilia Rose is the epitome of the new knitwear designer—young, educated, curious, and excited to share her passion for all ideas knit and purl. Her attitude toward curating her own collection of designs is informed as much by travel, cultural history, and tried-and-true sourcebooks as it is by modern media and technology. In Magpies, Homebodies, and Nomads, Rose takes readers behind the scenes of her design process, showing them how she curates and organizes ideas and translates them into knitwear designs. Through twenty-five projects that fall into three categories—Magpies (accessories for the small amounts of precious yarns that knitters inevitably collect), Homebodies (garments for time spent close to home), and Nomads (garments to wear when venturing out into the world)—Rose shares her modern aesthetic and invites readers to develop their own. “So not only do we have twenty-five patterns—many of them timeless and some of them quirky—we also have a lot of attentive commentary on color selection, styling tips, and useful info on substituting yarns. This is one new book that I would highly recommend. Not only for the patterns, but especially for the spirit of the book and the thoughtful way Cirilia Rose approaches her knitting and explains her process.” —Knit and Tonic “This is a gem of a book.” —Kangath Knits “This latitude that Rose has given herself to combine disparate elements makes all her designs fresh, hip and youthful.” —My Central Jersey

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFresh Fruit, Broken Bodies provides an intimate examination of the everyday lives, suffering, and resistance of Mexican migrants in our contemporary food system. Seth Holmes, an anthropologist and MD in the mold of Paul Farmer and Didier Fassin, shows how market forces, anti-immigrant sentiment, and racism undermine health and health care. Holmes was invited to trek with his companions clandestinely through the desert into Arizona and was jailed with them before they were deported. He lived with Indigenous families in the mountains of Oaxaca and in farm labor camps in the United States, planted and harvested corn, picked strawberries, and accompanied sick workers to clinics and hospitals. This “embodied anthropology” deepens our theoretical understanding of the ways in which social inequities come to be perceived as normal and natural in society and in health care. In a substantive new epilogue, Holmes and Indigenous Oaxacan scholar Jorge Ramirez-Lopez provide a current examination of the challenges facing farmworkers and the lives and resistance of the protagonists featured in the book.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThere is no one way to be transgender. Transgender and gender non-conforming people have many different ways of understanding their gender identities. Only recently have sex and gender been thought of as separate concepts, and we have learned that sex (traditionally thought of as physical or biological) is as variable as gender (traditionally thought of as social). While trans people share many common experiences, there is immense diversity within trans communities. There are an estimated 700,000 transgendered individuals in the US and 15 million worldwide. Even still, there's been a notable lack of organized information for this sizable group. Trans Bodies, Trans Selves is a revolutionary resource-a comprehensive, reader-friendly guide for transgender people, with each chapter written by transgender or genderqueer authors. Inspired by Our Bodies, Ourselves, the classic and powerful compendium written for and by women, Trans Bodies, Trans Selves is widely accessible to the transgender population, providing authoritative information in an inclusive and respectful way and representing the collective knowledge base of dozens of influential experts. Each chapter takes the reader through an important transgender issue, such as race, religion, employment, medical and surgical transition, mental health topics, relationships, sexuality, parenthood, arts and culture, and many more. Anonymous quotes and testimonials from transgender people who have been surveyed about their experiences are woven throughout, adding compelling, personal voices to every page. In this unique way, hundreds of viewpoints from throughout the community have united to create this strong and pioneering book. It is a welcoming place for transgender and gender-questioning people, their partners and families, students, professors, guidance counselors, and others to look for up-to-date information on transgender life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis essay sheds light on what is a homebody, explicates how people become homebodies, elucidates why certain people become homebodies, and expounds upon how the economy is affected by certain people being homebodies. Succinctly stated, a homebody is a term that refers to a person who prefers to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode. A homebody is at a high probability to be domiciled at his abode for the vast majority of his time. Furthermore, a homebody is also at a high probability to forgo becoming traveler and living a transient life. A homebody is capable of completing the vast majority of his tasks remotely without exiting his abode to do so. A homebody is able to shop for products remotely, is able to procure services remotely, is able to work real private sector jobs based on voluntary demand remotely, is able to confabulate with friends remotely, is able to partake in salubrious hobbies remotely, and is able to be pursuant of following health optimization measures at his abode. A homebody is often keen on adorning his abode to be tailored to his decorating preferences. If an abode is meticulously tailored to a homebody’s decorating preferences and if he derives euphoria from taking a gander at the items on display in his home environment that he is fond of, then it can help him to alleviate stress if doing so can divert his attention away from dwelling on stressors. From the perspective of a homebody, it can be deduced that a real estate property is perceived be far more than just a locale for a homebody to dwell in. As of October of 2024, even though it is estimated that there are about 36,677,592,320 acres of land on planet Earth, a single real estate property is the primary environment of a homebody. A homebody engages in activities, such as leisure activities and career-oriented activities, at his abode since it can be far more convenient for him to do so at his abode than for him to do so at public locales. A homebody engages in activities at his abode also because it can be significantly less noisy to do so at his abode than to do so in public locales that have ambient noise. A homebody prefers to circumvent venturing into public locales. Furthermore, a homebody also prefers to circumvent being impeded by traffic. Moreover, a homebody also prefers to circumvent waiting in long lines. A homebody also prefers to circumvent frequenting depressing environments. A homebody is often eminently content with expending the vast majority of his time at his abode in lieu of disparate locales that are outside the vicinity of his home environment. Most homebodies also prefer to circumvent being exposed to second-hand smoke, lethal household cleaning products, and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. When homebodies venture into public locales, then they are all the more vulnerable to being exposed to second-hand smoke and other noxious substances which can severely undermine a person’s immune system health. A homebody is often recalcitrant about leaving his abode for a prolonged period of time. If a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would be unable to access the amenities that are at his abode. Furthermore, if a homebody were to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time, then he would also need to cope with the ample inconveniences that are associated with the process of attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can significantly prolonged the time that it takes a homebody to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also render it more cumbersome for a homebody to attempt to complete tasks. Attempting to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment can also bear ample costs, such as fuel costs, oil costs, tire rotation costs, and vehicle repair costs, if a homebody were to profusely utilize his vehicle to drive to distant locales where he can attempt to complete tasks outside of the vicinity of his home environment. A homebody has a proclivity to expend the vast majority of his time at his abode since he is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time. A homebody is deterred to leave his abode for a prolonged period of time.
