Title: Seven Years in Tibet Pdf

A landmark in travel writing, this is the incredible true story of Heinrich Harrer's escape across the Himalayas to Tibet, set against the backdrop of the Second World War. Heinrich Harrer, already one of the greatest mountaineers of his time, was climbing in the Himalayas when war broke out in Europe. He was imprisoned by the British in India but succeeded in escaping and fled to Tibet. Settling in Lhasa, the Forbidden City, where he became a friend and tutor to the Dalai Lama, Heinrich Harrer spent seven years gaining a more profound understanding of Tibet and the Tibetans than any Westerner before him.

Seven Years in Tibet was translated into 53 languages, became a best seller in the United States in 1954, and sold three million copies.

You are in Tibet with the writer The author's writing style is so conversational that you feel you are along with him in Tibet. I had expected a tedious book, but still wanted to read it as we had traveled to Tibet last year and I wanted to get a picture of the country, the capital of Lhasa and the people as they appeared 50+ years ago when Heinrich Harrer was there. He gave me the picture I wanted, but it was far from tedious.Harrer's adventure does not linger on certain locales or situations, but moves along briskly. In a sense there are three sections: the long and sometimes dangerous road getting to Lhasa; the time getting acquainted with the Tibetan people, their customs and religion; and his time with the Dalai Lama who is now in exile. Each is treated in an understated, almost casual manner.The New York Times reviewer called this book "...one of the grandest and most incredible adventure stories I have ever read." I completely agree.The book contains some black and white photographs that tie to the narrative. The pictures made me hunger for more, so I have now ordered a Lowell Thomas, Jr. book that was the result of a visit to Tibet during the time Harrer was there.Overall, an excellent read.Outstanding This classic book provides an intimate portrait of the history, religion, and culture of Tibet. Sadly, it is a portrait of a Tibet that will never exist again. Like a beautiful jewel lost to humanity, Tibet shown for centuries, but is now lost. Well worth reading, several times. I have looked up many of the places and people in the text. Written by someone who was there, with first hand descriptions, this book is unique and a true treasure.Seven Years In Tibet is EXCELLENT!!!! This is a GREAT story and it's true! I read it through in one sitting, it was that riveting! The author went through so much hardship and even after reaching Lhasa, he still had to worry about getting kicked out of Tibet and or being recaptured by the British Army. The movie version of this was heavily embroidered, the book is so superior! This also tells about the heartbreaking take over of Tibet by China, so sad. The movie version is entertaining and has Brad Pitt, but the book is far better and true! I highly recommend this book!!!!

The previous edition of this book was titled Adult CCRN Strategies, Practice and Review with 2 Practice Tests.

Concise, well structured, simple text, clear layout & graphics ISBN 150622346X (Kaplan Adult CCRN Prep: 2 Practice Tests + Proven Strategies, 6th ed., ****½) illustrated, but without color, is systematic in presenting the practice materials allowing to immerse into reading from simpler to more complex and to find anything specific. The page layout is clear making the page content accessible at first glance for repetitions and as a reference. It contains enough questions to sufficiently check the preparation for a Adult Critical Care Registered Nurse certification in the United States with some minor imperfections remedied on the companion website.The content on its 452+X large pages is clearly divided into 4 parts, 14 chapters in parts I-III, Resources, and an index. Each chapter is subdivided into smaller sub-parts, which reflect a systematic approach, and ends with several pages of multiple (4) choice questions/problems followed by a part with answers and explanations. Part IV includes Adult CCRN Practice Test comprised of multiple (4) choice questions/problems followed by a chapter with answers and explanations. The sub-parts reflecting the approach are divided into topics and contain highlights giving the book the properties of a textbook as well as of a reference. After the initial reading, it can be used just for quick practicing, just of specific types of questions, or warming up.The graphical layout of this book in black and white is clear, simple, and exemplary. The titles of chapters, sub-parts, and even topics are boldfaced in alternating sizes. The topic text incorporates schematics, boxes, tables and graphs, which include various shades of grey. Thus, grasping the pages at 1st glance is easy. The book is up to date, but the more recent updates are available with endless additional practice questions/problems on the companion website. Approx. 109 pages of the book are shown by the "LOOK INSIDE!" function. What cannot be seen is that the book is well printed on good paper, but the flimsy soft cover, typical for the series, is prone to creasing and catching fingerprints.Raise your score! This is a great help. In addition to the practice tests, I found the coverage of material to be exemplary. Best of all were the score-raising strategies for the CCRN. Recommended!An essential aid that will help you to organize the total range of information you will need to master for your exam I'm giving this a five star rating in the sense of "Does the trick" rather than "Lots of fun - let's be sure to do this again." Kaplan has had a major foot in the test prep market for over 30 years now. Well, probably longer than that; I've only known about them for 30 years. I got this as an encouragement gift to a nephew who is just about to finish nursing school and is about to begin cramming for his registration exam. If you have ever used a Kaplan prep book, you know what to expect in terms of the book, practice exams, and online tools. The book won't do the work for you, but it will help organize better the materials that you will need to master to be able to pass your exam.

Eight Dates Pdf

ISBN: 1523504463
Title: Eight Dates Pdf Essential Conversations for a Lifetime of Love
Author: John Gottman
Published Date: 2019-02-05
Page: 224

Strengthen and deepen your love with a fun, ingenious program of eight life-changing conversations—on essential topics such as money, sex, and trust—from two of the world’s leading marriage researchers and clinicians.
 
Navigating the challenges of long-term commitment takes effort—and it just got simpler, with this empowering, step-by-step guide to communicating about the things that matter most to you and your partner. Drawing on forty years of research from their world-famous Love Lab, Dr. John Gottman and Dr. Julie Schwartz Gottman invite couples on eight fun, easy, and profoundly rewarding dates, each one focused on a make-or-break issue: trust, conflict, sex, money, family, adventure, spirituality, and dreams.
 
Interactive activities and prompts provide motivation to stay open, stay curious, and, most of all, stay talking to each other. And the range—from the four skills you need for intimate conversation (including Put Into Words What You Are Feeling) to tips on being honest about your needs, while also validating your partner’s own emotions—will resonate, whether you’re newly together or a longtime couple looking to fortify your bond. You will discover (or rediscover) your partner like never before—and be able to realize your hopes and dreams for the love you desire and deserve.
 

The conversatiosn you never kenw you needed to have. Eight Dates: Essential Conversations for a Lifetime of Love is a new book by marriage experts John and Julie Gottman. The book aims to encourage couples to "date" each other in order to strengthen their marriages. As the title suggests, Gottman and Gottman provide resources for eight dates which primarily focus on essential conversations to have with each other. . Each chapter provides background information on the topic including why it is an essential conversation and why the topic is important for a long, lasting marriage. At the end of the chapter a list of questions is provided along with suggestions for a date.This is a book where ideally each spouse has a copy or has a copy they can easily share. For this reason, the hardbound copy would be a better purchase. While useful for couples of all ages, couples still in the earlier years of their relationship will benefit the most from this resource. Marriage therapists and pre-marital counselors will wish to add this resource to their arsenal of tools as well.Disclosure of Material Connection: I received the book Eight Dates via NetGalley. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.Straightforward and practical advice for creating a more solid romantic relationship. John Gottman is basically a love guru. He has studied thousands of relationships, and after several decades of clinical observation and study, he can predict with 97% accuracy if a couple will stay together or divorce.I read one of Gottman’s earlier books called The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work when my husband and I were having a rough time just after we were married. It absolutely changed the way I approached our relationship, and it helped us both better communicate so we could come together to work through our issues and move on.I was expecting good things from Eight Dates, and boy did it deliver. The book is divided into eight sections, one for each date. The dates cover eight of the most meaningful, important, and, often, contentious topics that couples deal with: trust and commitment, conflict, sex, money, family, fun and adventure, growth and spirituality, and dreams. Before the dates are introduced, an intro gives characteristics of successful marriages, as well as advice on how to have an intimate conversation and how to listen.There is SO MUCH interesting info in this book! I know not everyone is going to froth at the mouth over learning how couples interact with each other, but I seriously couldn’t get enough. It’s all so interesting to me, discovering what is “normal” and what actually creates a lasting connection, especially when it doesn’t necessarily match up with what I expected. Some of my favorite insights:*** Successful marriages have 20 positive interactions for every 1 negative interaction.*** Sixty-nine percent of conflicts in most marriages will never be solved. The trick is to fight about (or let go of) these issues effectively.*** Eighty-percent of married couples have sex at least a few times a month. Of those, 32% have sex 2 to 3 times a week.*** Studies have shown that dual-career couples with young children spend only 10% of their evenings together, with most of that time spent discussing errands. (In other words, they have to work extra hard to keep that romantic spark alive…)*** The five most common subjects that couples fight about are money, sex, in-laws, alcohol or drug use, and parenting.*** Arguments about the unpaid work in a relationship (chores and childcare) tend to cause the most conflict.*** The eight most important elements of a successful marriage are fidelity, good sex, division of chores, adequate income, good housing, shared religious beliefs, shared interests, and children.*** Stay at home parents do about $90,000 worth of work per year. (#preach)*** An early indicator of the future success of a marriage happens during pregnancy and the birth of a child. If a husband (the study only involved heterosexual couples) is involved during pregnancy and birth, the marriage will be happier later on. A father tends to stay involved with the children through the years if his marriage has low conflict and there is continued sex.*** Play is a vital component of a relationship. Couples who play together, stay together. This includes experiencing laughter, excitement, anxiety, and curiosity, both separately and together.*** Conflict is how our relationships grow.*** It’s important for couples to share their dreams with each other. Keeping your dreams from your partner leads to bitterness, resentment, loss of passion and desire, and distance.*** Every person has a dream or life purpose, and it should never be sacrificed for the relationship. It’s possible for both people to achieve their dreams, just typically not at the same time.Is that too much to share? I seriously could go on and on. I just find this stuff fascinating.Practically speaking, this book is very user-friendly. It talks about each topic, summarizes the chapter, then lays out a date night plan complete with suggestions for how to prepare, where to go, problems to look out for, questions to ask, and an affirmation to say together at the end of the date. It’s intense but also very doable. My husband and I haven’t gone through each of these dates yet, but the ones we’ve done have been really interesting and made us feel more connected.In short, I’d recommend this book to any couple looking to take their relationship to the next level. Five enthusiastic stars!
