When she married, a crowd of over 2,000 onlookers gathered, and newspapers frenziedly reported every detail of the event, right down to the bridal underwear. Even by the standards of the day the glamorous, eighteen-year-old had made an outstanding match: she had ensnared the twenty-four-year-old Duke of Marlborough, the most eligible peer in Great Britain.</p> <p>Yet the bride’s swollen face, barely hidden under the veil, presaged the unhappiness that lay in the couple’s painful twelve-year future. It was not Consuelo, but her domineering mother who had forced the marriage through. This captivating biography tells of the lives of mother and daughter: the story of the fairytale wedding and its nightmarish aftermath, and an account of how both women went on to dedicate their lives to the dramatic fight for women’s rights, in the light of their own suffering.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,660円

THE ANGER CYCLE Why Good People Keep Blowing Upーand How to Break Free【電子書籍】[ Marvin McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Anger doesn't usually arrive as an explosion.</strong><br /> It begins as pressureーquiet, unnoticed, and building.</p> <p>Most people who struggle with anger aren't violent. They're tired. Disappointed. Overloaded. Carrying silent frustration, unmet expectations, unprocessed hurt, and constant stress. And eventually, something small pushes the system past capacity.</p> <p>That's when the cycle repeats.</p> <p>In <strong>The Anger Cycle: Why Good People Keep Blowing Upーand How to Break Free</strong>, Marvin McKenzie walks readers through the hidden pattern behind repeated angerーwithout lectures, without clich?s, and without shallow promises. This book doesn't just address <em>what</em> people do when they're angry. It explains <em>why</em> the same reactions keep returning even when a person sincerely wants to change.</p> <p>Instead of approaching anger as a simple self-control issue, <strong>The Anger Cycle</strong> reveals it as a repeatable emotional and nervous-system pattern:</p> <p><strong>Trigger → Interpretation → Pressure → Release → Damage → Reset</strong></p> <p>Once this pattern is understood, it can finally be interrupted.</p> <p>Through calm explanation and deeply relatable life experience, this book explores:</p> <ul> <li>The difference between rage and resentmentーand why both are destructive in different ways</li> <li>How the body, stress, fatigue, and adrenaline quietly shorten the emotional fuse</li> <li>Why control, personal rights, and unmet expectations accelerate anger</li> <li>How disappointment and silent frustration harden into irritation over time</li> <li>The slow, often invisible damage anger causes in families, careers, health, and trust</li> <li>Why willpower alone rarely succeeds long-term</li> <li>How pre-forgiveness drains the fuel that keeps resentment alive</li> <li>How identity shifts from "I am angry" to "I am regulated"</li> <li>How emotional patterns silently pass from parent to child</li> <li>And what freedom actually feels like when the cycle finally loosens its grip</li> </ul> <p>This is not a book of temporary techniques for "cooling down." It is a book about <strong>draining the pressure that creates the fire in the first place</strong>.</p> <p>Readers will recognize themselves in these pagesーnot as failures, but as people who learned to survive pressure in ways that no longer serve them. With clarity, compassion, and steady insight, <strong>The Anger Cycle</strong> shows how emotional survival patterns can be retrained into emotional strength.</p> <p>This book is for:</p> <ul> <li>The man or woman who keeps promising to "do better" but feels trapped in repeat reactions</li> <li>The parent afraid of passing emotional volatility to their children</li> <li>The spouse who senses growing tension but doesn't fully understand why</li> <li>The believer who loves God sincerely but struggles to rule their spirit</li> <li>And anyone tired of living inside the loop of pressure, reaction, regret, and repeat</li> </ul> <p>Anger does not mean you are broken.<br /> It means your system learned a way to survive pressure.</p> <p>And what was learned can be unlearned.</p> <p><strong>The Anger Cycle</strong> does not promise a life without emotion.<br /> It offers something better: <strong>a life with choice, clarity, and steady emotional control.</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 500円

Essay on the Life and Institutions of Offa, King of Mercia, A.D. 755-794 Enriched edition. Unveiling the Legacy of Mercian Kingship【電子書籍】[ Henry Mackenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Henry Mackenzie's "Essay on the Life and Institutions of Offa, King of Mercia, A.D. 755-794" meticulously examines the life and legacy of one of the most significant figures in early medieval England. Through a detailed narrative style that blends historical analysis with engaging prose, Mackenzie contextualizes Offa's reign within the broader sociopolitical landscape of the time. He draws on a variety of sources, incorporating both primary texts and archaeological findings, to illuminate Offa's pivotal role in establishing the Mercian dynasty's power, his legal reforms, and his diplomatic relationships with neighboring kingdoms, particularly through the construction of the famous Offa's Dyke. Mackenzie, a Scottish writer and advocate for historical inquiry, was deeply influenced by the growing Romantic interest in Britain's past during the 18th century. His academic background in law and strong affinity for Scottish and English history likely fueled his desire to explore lesser-known historical narratives, such as that of Offa. His works reflect the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and critical examination, positioning him as a key figure in the revival of interest in historical scholarship during his era. This essential read is recommended for historians, students, and general readers interested in early medieval England, as it offers a compelling exploration of a monarch whose influence resonates through time. Mackenzie's insightful perspectives and critical approach invite readers to reconsider Offa's contributions and the historical significance of his reign, making this essay a valuable addition to any historical library.

Language Contact and the Future of English【電子書籍】[ Ian Mackenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This book reflects on the future of the English language as used by native speakers, speakers of nativized New Englishes, and users of English as a lingua franca (ELF). The volume begins by outlining the current position of English in the world and accounts for the differences among native and nativized varieties and ELF usages. It offers a historical perspective on the impact of language contact on English and discusses whether the lexicogrammatical features of New Englishes and ELF are shaped by imperfect learning or deliberate language change. The book also considers the consequences of writing in a second language and questions the extent to which non-native English-speaking academics and researchers should be required to conform to ‘Anglo’ patterns of text organization and ‘English Academic Discourse.’ The book then examines the converse effect of English on other languages through bilingualism and translation. This volume is essential reading for students and scholars in English language, sociolinguistics, language acquisition, and language policy.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 10,280円

Nervous Disorders and Religion A Study of Souls in the Making【電子書籍】[ John G. McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Originally published in 1951, this title is a study in developmental psychology with special reference to the effect of various types of religion on mental health and religious experience. With instinct as a ‘disappearing category’ in the psychology of human nature, a new approach to the realization of a harmonious interior life has been made using a doctrine of biological and personality needs as a starting point. Human nature is acquired and is not a static datum. The interior conflicts, the development of conscience and the origin of guilt feeling, the morbid complexes and the character-trends resulting from these conflicts with their sense of guilt are all studied. A long chapter on the various methods of mental healing through the doctrines of psycho-somatic medicine, with a new approach to Spiritual Healing in particular, prepares the way for the final chapter on the types of religion which originate or accentuate psychological conflicts, and the kind of religion which leads to a basic sense of security and harmonious personality. The illustrations are nearly all taken from Dr McKenzie’s own thirty years’ experience of dealing with neurotic disorders.</p> <p>This volume contains the substance (greatly expanded) of the Tate lectures delivered in Manchester College, Oxford, in 1947, and repeated at the St Andrews Summer School of Theology in1948 and at Iona Community.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 9,119円

Plunged into the subculture of the blind, Mackenzie struggles to understand, finding herself out of her element as she crisscrosses the state, racing from group homes to private houses, interviewing caretakers, librarians, experts and psychologists.

Plunged into the subculture of the priesthood, Mackenzie struggles to learn more about the rituals, about ancient scripture, to try to enter the killer's mind. But Mackenzie is already preoccupied by her hunt for her father's own murderer, determined to find him this time. And this new killer is more sinister than most, and will push her, in his deadly cat and mouse game, to the very brink of her own sanity.</p> <p>Dark psychological thrillers with heart-pounding suspense, the MACKENZIE WHITE MYSTERY series is a riveting new seriesーwith a beloved new characterーthat will leave you turning pages late into the night.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,760円

Speech and Song : Study of their Origin and Development【電子書籍】[ Morell Mackenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>“In dealing with the two great forms of local utterance, it will be most convenient to take them in their historical, or at any rate their logical, order. Whatever "native wood-notes wild" our hypothetical half-human ancestor may have "warbled" by way of love-ditties before he taught himself to speak, there is no doubt that singing as an art is a later development than articulate speech, without which, indeed, song would be like a body without a soul. I will, therefore, treat of speech first; and it will clear the ground if I begin with a definition. Physiologically, speech is the power of modifying vocal sound by breaking it up into distinct elements, and molding it, if I may say so, into different forms. Speech, in this sense, is the universal faculty of which the various languages by means of which men hold converse with each other are the particular manifestations. Speech is the abstract genus, language the concrete species...The mechanism of voice has already been described, but, for the sake of clearness, it may be well to recall the three essential elements in its production: 1) the air-blast, or motive power; 2) the vibrating reed, or tone-producing apparatus; 3) the sounding-board, or re-enforcing cavities. These, to parody a well-worn physiological metaphor, are the three legs of the tripod of voice; defect in, or mismanagement of, any one of them is fatal to the musical efficiency of the vocal instrument...”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 350円

Humor Us! Preaching and the Power of the Comic Spirit【電子書籍】[ Alyce M. McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Homiletics textbooks often discourage the use of humor in preaching, regarding it as trivializing or distracting. The result is that many preachers have failed to understand humor’s positive power, demoting it to the opening joke to get a guaranteed guffaw to warm up the crowd. <em>Humor Us!</em>, the second volume in the "Preaching and…" series, is a collaborative effort by homiletician Alyce M. McKenzie and humor scholar Owen Hanley Lynch that promotes humor, a force capable of great good, to its rightful place in the pulpit. Establishing humor as a divine gift, <em>Humor Us!</em> opens to preachers the world of humor studies with its positive portrayal of humor’s usefulness to speak truth to power, unite people in their common humanity, and strengthen them to cope and survive in tough times.</p> <p><em>Humor Us!</em> helps preachers understand how humor works and shows them, in very practical and specific ways, how preachers can put it to work in their sermons. It combines the wealth of knowledge of two highly regarded scholars-practitioners to show how humor can become a potent tool for sharing the good news in sermons. McKenzie and Lynch prove that humor, when applied thoughtfully, can foster compassion and a sense of common humanity, help challenge an unjust status quo, and invite listeners into a shared experience of the presence of God.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,317円

The British Empire through buildings Structure, function and meaning【電子書籍】[ John M. MacKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Buildings provide tremendous insights into the character of imperialism, not least in the manner in which Western forms were spread across the globe. They reveal the projection of power and authority in colonised landscapes, as well the economic ambitions and social and cultural needs of colonial peoples in all types of colonies. They also represent a colonial order of social classes and racial divisions, together with the ways in which these were inflected through domestic living space, places of work and various aspects of cultural relations. They illuminate the desires of Europeans to indulge in cultural and religious proselytisation, encouraging indigenous peoples to adopt western norms. But the resistance of the supposedly subordinate people led to the invasion, adoption and adaptation of such buildings for a post-colonial world. The book will be vital reading for all students and scholars interested in the widest aspects of material culture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 17,246円

Brief Points An Almanac for Parents and Friends of U.S. Naval Academy Midshipmen, Third Edition【電子書籍】[ Ross H. MacKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Naval Academy's culture is a unique and sometimes baffling phenomenon to the outside world, but with this newly updated guide in hand relatives and friends of midshipmen will find answers to all the questions they might have about Academy life. Since it was first published more than a decade ago, parents have relied on the almanac for insights into their sons' and daughters' experiences at Annapolis. Now the son of the original author has taken on the responsibility of bringing the popular reference up to date. An Academy graduate, active duty naval officer, and former English instructor at the Academy, the younger Mackenzie makes full use of his intimate knowledge of Annapolis to fill in the gaps. Along with the latest facts on car ownership, dating policies, athletic requirements, and disciplinary demands, you'll now find a useful guide to Internet resources. A midshipman profile and a dictionary of "Midspeak" completes the picture in a book whose title recalls the midshipmen's own manual, Reef Points, but extends its concept for outsiders seeking practical information about the Academy, the Navy, and Annapolis. Prospective applicants, graduates, newcomers to the USNA staff, and visitors seeking a memento will also be attracted to this useful guide.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,708円

<p>The Leaning Tower of Pisa is the free-standing bell tower of the Cathedral of the Italian City of Pisa. The tower is known worldwide for its unintended and permanent tilt. The tilt (lean) of each person is a demonstration of their choice?deliverance or defeat. Humans are either leaning toward Christ or leaning away from Him. A choice is a cognitive assertive decision?behavior (CAD-B)?a deliberate decision to be proactive and definitive about one’s trajectory. Godly CAD-B turns the turbine of personal productive change which leads to transformation and renewal of body, mind, and soul. It is spiritual “will” and “won’t” power in motion that is fueled by the Holy Ghost?the divine catalyst of a believer’s new creation.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 421円

Common Enemies: Crime, Policy and Politics in Australia Indonesis【電子書籍】[ Michael McKenzie ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Over the last two decades, Australia and Indonesia have built a remarkable partnership in the fight against terrorism and other transnational crimes. <em>Common Enemies: Crime, Policy, and Politics in Australia-Indonesia Relations</em> is the first in-depth study of this partnership, examining both its successes and its failures. Drawing on over 100 interviews and extensive archival material, the book tells the inside story of the joint police investigation into the 2002 terrorist bombings in Bali, the extradition of Indonesian corruption fugitive Adrian Kiki Ariawan, the public campaigns in support of Australians detained in Indonesia for drug trafficking, and the 2013 spying scandal that led to a freeze in cooperation. It also investigates many cases that never made the headlines in an effort to understand the conditions that promote criminal justice cooperation between these two very different countries. The book reveals a tension between parochial politics and policy ambition at the heart of the bilateral relationship, and explores how politicians, bureaucrats, and private actors animate this tension. It also considers how various 'wars on crime' since the 1970s have shaped the relationship, and the importance of reciprocity in maintaining the relationship. Based on this analysis, it identifies strategies for enhancing cross-border cooperation to combat crime. The mix of engaging case studies and novel theorising in <em>Common Enemies</em> will appeal to both practitioners and scholars of transnational policing, international relations, regulation, and global governance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 13,389円
