Book Description
Just who is "the troll"? The troll is the disgruntled, negative voice within each of us that works tirelessly to remind us of our deepest fears of inadequacy. As we attempt to better ourselves or our lot in life--that is, to cross any bridge--it is the troll underneath that bridge that belittles and taunts us until, too battered to go on, we return to the "safe" side of the bridge. The troll is well equipped to do battle, employing a full arsenal of tricks to promote self-doubt and keep us as prisoners of low self-esteem. Rather than suggest that we wage war with the troll, however, Terry Cooper--through a sound blend of psychology and spirituality--encourages us to understand the ways of the troll, the ways we inadvertently aid and abet the work of the troll and the ways we can handle our conflict with the troll. Perhaps most importantly, Dr. Cooper helps us realize that it is our acceptance of the troll as part of ourselves that ultimately enables us to disarm the troll. With this realization, we no longer resist grace; we are on the way to healing our troll.

The shifting border: Legal cartographies of migration and mobility
Author: Ayelet Shachar
Publisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526145340
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
The border is one of the most urgent issues of our times. We tend to think of a border as a static line, but recent bordering techniques have broken away from the map, as governments have developed legal tools to limit the rights of migrants before and after they enter a country’s territory. The consequent detachment of state power from any fixed geographical marker has created a new paradigm: the shifting border, an adjustable legal construct untethered in space. This transformation upsets our assumptions about waning sovereignty, while also revealing the limits of the populist push toward border-fortification. At the same time, it presents a tremendous opportunity to rethink states’ responsibilities to migrants. This book proposes a new, functional approach to human mobility and access to membership in a world where borders, like people, have the capacity to move.

Gribble the Grumpy Troll
Author: Robin Wickens
Publisher: Rob's Books
ISBN:
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
In a shadowy hollow beneath the gnarled roots of an ancient oak, Gribble the Grumpy Troll resided. His eyes, a piercing shade of emerald, glinted under the brim of his weathered hat, as mismatched as his mood. With a nose crinkled like crumpled parchment and a scowl that could sour milk, Gribble was as notorious for his temper as he was for his cunning. The local villagers whispered tales of Gribble's exploits, always careful to steer clear of the bridge he claimed as his own. This wasn't just any bridge; it was a crooked construction of stone and wood, spanning a murky stream that whispered secrets only Gribble could understand. Each day, Gribble sat beneath his bridge, grumbling over the riddles and rhymes that would cost a bold traveler a few coins—or, on a bad day, their pride. His grumpiness was legendary, not just for the sake of being disagreeable, but because he believed the world was as twisted as the roots of his home. And yet, for those rare souls who saw past his grumbles and grouches, Gribble held a wisdom woven through his tales of trolls and treasure, a reminder that even under the roughest stone, one might find a gleaming gem.
