East Devon
Part of Bradt s distinctive, award-winning series of Slow travel guides to UK regions, this new, thoroughly updated third edition of East Devon and The Jurassic Coast (Slow Travel) remains the most comprehensive - and only standalone - guide available to this area. Written with insider knowledge that can only be gained by living in the area, and combined with colourful, enthusiastic and witty writing, plus contributions from local experts, this guidebook is as much a pleasure to read as an invaluable companion for exploring east Devon and west Dorset. Devon is the fourth most popular county for UK holidaymakers - and for good reason. Over a hundred square miles of East Devon are designated a National Landscape (formerly Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty ) and the internationally famous Jurassic Coast stretching into Dorset is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The charming coastal town of Seaton benefits from sensitive development, including the extension (to wildlife-packed Seaton Wetlands) of the Stop Line Way, a long-distance cycling and walking route to Bristol, originally designed to bolster World War II defences. Dorset s Lyme Regis, meanwhile, is Britain s fossil-hunting capital - as featured in the 2020 film Ammonite, starring Kate Winslet.With an emphasis on car-free travel - walking, cycling and local buses - this Bradt guide s detailed descriptions, historical glimpses, folklore and personal anecdotes whet readers appetite for exploration. Many activities are covered for the first time in this new edition. Coastal walking has never been better following the reopening of the South West Coast Path locally. Paddleboarding tours and lessons now operate off Seaton beach and a new section of the Stop Line Way walking and cycling route has opened up through the sensational Seaton Wetlands. Savour the artisan coffee that has become a big deal locally, or taste the produce of the region s fastest-growing agricultural sector: wine. Giggle at the goings on at the ancient Goose Fayre in Colyton, and enjoy other idiosyncratic local festivals such as the Ottery tar barrels and Honiton hot pennies. And when you re done, reward yourself with one of Beer s Devon cream teas while admiring this picturesque fishing village. Wherever you amble, let Bradt s East Devon and the Jurassic Coast (Slow Travel) be your companion.

So, everything’s great because both she and Luke have exes they’re completely normal about, and Devon isn’t being clingy over her first boyfriend.What could go wrong?

Unmasking for Life - Devon Price
Devon Price is the most exciting, revolutionary voice in autism advocacy today. -Fern Brady, comedian and author of Strong Female Character Deeply insightful and empowering, illuminating a path for those of us searching for authentic connections and relationships [...] This is the book I desperately needed. -Emily Katy, author of Girl Unmasked***Live your best, unashamedly unmasked Autistic life with this invaluable resource featuring tools for navigating friendships, family, work, love, and life, from the author of Unmasking Autism.So you ve discovered what masking is, how you re doing it, and the potential of embracing your neurodiversity. Now what?Most masked Autistics have spent a lifetime being told how to perform neurotypically: how to behave, how to carry themselves, what to feel, and how to live. With his previous book, Unmasking Autism, Dr. Devon Price has given them the space and confidence to unmask and embrace their neurodiversity. But no matter where you are in the unmasking process, there is still work to be done. Because Autistic people often fear change, struggle to process unfamiliar situations, and have trauma histories that have conditioned them to avoid conflict, they don t always know how to transform their inner revelations into outer realities. They need more than internal healing - they need practical tools to translate acceptance into assertiveness and interpersonal effectiveness.In this book, Devon Price helps you advocate for your needs and invent new ways of living, loving and being that work for you, using five key skills:· Acceptance of change, loss, and uncertainty· Engagement in productive conflict, discussion, and disagreement· Transgression of unfair rules, demands, and social expectations· Tolerance of distress, disagreement, or being disliked· Creation of new accommodations, relationship structures, and new ways of livingWith powerful insights and transformative resources, Unmasking for Life is a practical guide to living a fully realised Autistic life.***PRAISE FOR UNMASKING AUTISM: Outstanding. -Fern Brady, author of Strong Female Character Reading this felt like being at home - I didn t realise how much I masked. What an incredible book that I know will be re-read many times over. -Dr Camilla Pang, author of Explaining Humans A powerful argument for radical self-acceptance applicable to all readers. - Los Angeles Times

How to Get Murdered in Devon - Stephanie Austin
When Juno Browne purchased a car for her lover, Daniel Thorncroft, she was not expecting that the previous owner would lock a dead body in the boot. Who the dead man could be is a persistent question, as is the whereabouts of the seller, Amber Horrell. While Inspector Ford and the Ashburton police are on the case, Juno s insatiable curiosity and concern for the missing Amber lead her to start sleuthing on her own. It turns out that the Horrells, Amber s family, are notorious in this corner of Devon, with an ancient murder and vanishing red diamond in their past and a shady antiques business very much in their present. With a second murder, Juno s involvement in the investigation becomes more complicated and the line between reality and fiction also become blurred. But the truth, she discovers, is far more complicated than it seems. Rural cosy crime perfect for fans of Kate Ellis and our own Rebecca Tope The ninth book in the very successful Devon Mysteries series by Stephanie Austin. This compelling crime series follows amateur sleuth and antique dealer, Juno Browne, as she stumbles upon mysterious murders in the idyllic Devon countryside.

On Southern Lines in Devon and Cornwall - Robert Hendry
The Southern Railway, and later British Railwaysâ ™ Southern Region extended its reach into Devon and Cornwall, competing with the Great Western Railway. The main line served Exeter and Plymouth and named trains such as the â ˜Atlantic Coast Expressâ ™ and the â ˜Devon Belleâ ™ took holidaymakers to the coastal resorts, including Padstow, Bude and Ilfracombe. In addition, a network of lines served smaller locations in the two counties. Many of these lines were closed in the 1960s, during the Beeching era, and earlier BRâ ™s Western Region had taken over the Southernâ ™s lines in Devon and Cornwall west of Exeter. In this book railway historian Robert Hendry documents in photographs the changing race of the railways on these lines, from the days of the Southern Railway into BRâ ™s ownership.

South Devon
This new, thoroughly updated third edition of South Devon and Dartmoor is part of Bradt s distinctive Slow Travel series of guides to UK regions, offering in-depth exploration of one of England s most popular areas. Written by resident experts Hilary Bradt, the late Janice Booth, and Gill and Alistair Campbell, it remains the essential companion to discovering not just the obvious and well-known sites, but also for getting off the beaten track and understanding what makes this gorgeous part of the country tick.Much of the information in Bradt s South Devon and Dartmoor has appeared in no other guidebook (apart from previous editions of this book) as the authors uncover the lesser-known charms of the region, as well as different aspects of the more popular places (from the English Riviera and South Hams to Salcombe and Dartmoor), together with colourful characters from the past, folk history and literary links from Agatha Christie to Arthur Conan Doyle. The guide has a special emphasis on car-free travel: walking (this edition features a revised selection of routes, including miles without stiles - accessible Dartmoor walks), cycling and river boats, as well as local buses (including the new Dartmoor Explorer service) and trains. This edition has a stronger emphasis on local food (both in markets and when eating out), while the authors have updated their hand-picked suggestions for places to eat and drink, and for accommodation (from idyllically located campsites to boutique B Bs, via caravans, treehouses and haunted coaching inns).Colourful and witty writing, along with the authors enthusiasm for their subject, makes the guide a pleasure to read. With Bradt s South Devon and Dartmoor, discover the region s award-winning gin distillery and new whisky distillery; learn what really goes on at a wassail gathering; find out what you should do if you re harassed by pixies on Dartmoor; and discover unique local events like the annual Orange Race held in Totnes. Also included are entertaining and informative stories about historical characters and folklore, while small and historic village churches, with their idiosyncratic saints and intriguing carvings, are described in loving detail.

Autismus bez masky - Devon Price - audiokniha
Audiokniha: „Číst tuto knihu bylo jako cítit se doma – neuvědomovala jsem si, jak moc jsem se maskovala.“ — spisovatelka Camilla Pang O audioknize Nevyznáte se v emocích druhých a zvládání běžných situací vás stojí neúměrně mnoho energie? Nevíte, jak komunikovat s kolegy či příbuznými? Možná je na čase nakouknout pod svou masku! Autistické spektrum je mnohem širší, než si myslíte. Devon Price vám za pomoci psychologických výzkumů a osobních příběhů přiblíží, jak různorodě se může maskovaný autismus projevovat. V knize objasňuje, proč si tolik z nás připouští svou odlišnost až v poměrně pokročilém věku. Předá vám také řadu tipů, jak přestat skrývat svou jinakost a nepotlačovat své potřeby a přirozenost jen proto, abyste zapadali do společenských škatulek. V audioknize se mimo jiné dozvíte - Autisté jsou náchylnější k sebepoškozování, závislostem a poruchám příjmu potravy. - Nemáme tušení, kolik autistů mezi námi žije – kvůli ostychu i používání přežitých metod diagnostiky. - Odmaskování autismu snižuje pocit vyčerpání, riziko profesního vyhoření, deprese a úzkosti. - Součástí problému je fakt, že společnost klade větší důraz na „poslušnost“ autistů než jejich psychické zdraví. - Ke spokojenému životu bez masky patří pěstování specifických zájmů a autentičnost přes sebou i ostatními. Cenné rady v knize najdou i rodinní příslušníci, kolegové a přátelé „maskovaných“ autistů. O autorovi Devon Price je sociální psycholog, spisovatel, blogger a aktivista, který se sám potýkal s maskováním autismu. Přednáší psychologii na americké Loyola University Chicago, dlouhodobě se věnuje popularizaci a osvětě. Autismus bez masky je jeho druhou knihou.

The pages in this book are an exact replica of those in her original journal, a rich illustrated memory of Jo s discoveries in the order in which she found them.In enchanting, minute detail she zooms in on a bog beacon mushroom, a buff-tailed bumble-bee, or a native bluebell. And she notes facts about their physiology and life history. Secrets of a Devon Wood is a treat for the senses, a hymn to the intricate beauty of the natural world and a quiet call to arms for all of us to acknowledge and preserve it. It is a book that will stay with you long after you finally put it down.

Laziness Does Not Exist - Devon Price
From social psychologist Dr. Devon Price, a conversational, stirring call to “a better, more human way to live” (Cal Newport, New York Times bestselling author) that examines the “laziness lie”—which falsely tells us we are not working or learning hard enough.Extra-curricular activities. Honors classes. 60-hour work weeks. Side hustles. Like many Americans, Dr. Devon Price believed that productivity was the best way to measure self-worth. Price was an overachiever from the start, graduating from both college and graduate school early, but that success came at a cost. After Price was diagnosed with a severe case of anemia and heart complications from overexertion, they were forced to examine the darker side of all this productivity. Laziness Does Not Exist explores the psychological underpinnings of the “laziness lie,” including its origins from the Puritans and how it has continued to proliferate as digital work tools have blurred the boundaries between work and life. Using in-depth research, Price explains that people today do far more work than nearly any other humans in history yet most of us often still feel we are not doing enough. Filled with practical and accessible advice for overcoming society’s pressure to do more, and featuring interviews with researchers, consultants, and experiences from real people drowning in too much work, Laziness Does Not Exist “is the book we all need right now” (Caroline Dooner, author of The F*ck It Diet).

They don t fit the stereotypical mould of Autism and are often forced by necessity to mask who they are, spending their entire lives trying to hide their Autistic traits. In particular, there is evidence that Autism remains significantly undiagnosed in women, people of colour, trans and gender non-conforming people, many of whom are only now starting to recognise those traits later in life.Blending cutting-edge research, personal insights and practical exercises for self-expression, Dr Devon Price examines the phenomenon of masking , making a passionate argument for radical authenticity and non-conformity. A powerful call for change, Unmasking Autism gifts its readers with the tools to uncover their true selves and build a new society - one where everyone can thrive on their own terms.

Devon Metro - Andrew Bartlett
In 2011, Devon County Council outlined plans for a rapid-transit-style rail network, the Devon Metro, to be achieved through improvements to services and facilities, including the opening of new stations. As well as the Great Western Railway main line, the five other active branches centred on Exeter would be incorporated into the scheme. At the western end of the county, Plymouth councillors have for some time also been looking at a tram-style Metro for the city, along with a new station for Plympton and the reinstatement of the line to Tavistock and Okehampton.With vibrant images and informative text, this book explores how the Metro plans have developed line by line since 2011 and what might realistically be achieved in the next decade.

The Middle East - Jean-Pierre Filiu
The Middle East, often referred to as the cradle of the three monotheisms, is saturated with symbolism. Situated at the crossroads of Asia, Africa, and Europe, it is a land marked by the rich confluence of religions and peoples. It has also been the focal point of endemic tensions and conflicts, many of which stretch back into the mists of time. In this new history of the Middle East, Jean-Pierre Filiu looks beyond religion and focuses his attention on the processes by which powers and their areas of domination were established over time. His starting point is 395, the year when the Roman Empire was divided into eastern and western halves: at that point, the Middle East emerged as a specific entity, freed from external domination, and a Christianity of the East asserted itself, turned towards Byzantium rather than towards Rome. From this point on, Filiu follows a strictly Middle Eastern dynamic, tracing the rise and fall of powers linked to the three principal centres of Egypt, Syria, and Iraq and recounting the procession of empires, invasions, and assertions of imperialist ambition that have characterized the region since then. The book closes in 2022, when the men and women of the Middle East were still struggling for the right to define their destiny by telling their stories in their own voices. This magisterial and up-to-date history of the Middle East will be essential reading for students and scholars and for anyone interested in the history and politics of one of the most important and contested regions of the modern world.

The Fate of Third Worldism in the Middle East - Rasmus C. Elling, Sune Haugbolle
A provocative reinterpretation of the tumultuous late 1970s and early 1980s in the Middle EastIn the latter half of the twentieth century, a revolutionary idea promised to upend the global order. Anti-imperialist militancy, bolstered by international solidarity, would lead to not only the national liberation of oppressed peoples but universal emancipation, shattering the division between the prosperous nations of the capitalist West and the poorer countries of the Global South. The idea was Third Worldism, and among others it inspired struggles in Iran and Palestine. By the early 1980s, however, progressive visions of independence and freedom had fallen to the reality of an oppressive Islamic theocracy in Iran, while the Palestinian Revolution had been eclipsed by civil war in Lebanon, Israeli aggression and intra-Arab conflict. This thought-provoking volume explores the dramatic decline of Third Worldism in the Middle East. It reveals the lived realities of the time by focusing on the key protagonists – from student activists to guerrilla fighters, and from volunteer nurses to militant intellectuals – and juxtaposes the Iranian and Palestinian cases to offer a riveting re-examination of this defining era. Ultimately, it challenges us to reassess how we view the end of the long 1960s, prompting us to reconsider perennial questions concerning self-determination, emancipation, change and solidarity.Contents Introduction: The Transformation of Third Worldism in the Middle East Sune Haugbolle and Rasmus Elling 1 Demystifying Third World Solidarity: Cuba and the Palestinian Revolution in the Seventies Sorcha Thomson 2 Nursing the Revolution: Norwegian Medical Support in Lebanon as Solidarity, 1976–1983 Pelle Valentin Olsen 3 Searching for Friends Across the Global South: Classified Documents, Iran, and the Export of the Revolution in 1983 Simon Wolfgang Fuchs 4 The Gendered Politics of Dead Bodies: Obituaries, Revolutionaries, and Martyrs between the Iranian, Palestinian, and Dhufar Revolutions Marral Shamshiri 5 Brothers, Comrades, and the Quest for the Islamist International: The First Gathering of Liberation Movements in Revolutionary Iran Mohammad Ataie 6 Abu Jubran and Jabal ʿAmil Between the Palestinian and Iranian Revolutions Nathaniel George 7 The Islamic Republic Party and the Palestinian Cause, 1979–80: A Discursive Transformation of the Third Worldist Agenda Maryam Alemzadeh 8 Translation, Revolutionary Praxis, and the Enigma of Manuchehr Hezarkhani Nasser Mohajer and Eskandar Sadeghi-Boroujerdi 9 The Front of our Friends: Shu’un Falastiniyya as an Archive of Palestinian Third Worldism Klaudia Wieser 10 Fragile Solidarity: The Iranian Left and the Kurdish National Question in the 1979 Revolution Rasmus C.
