The Power of a Positive No
How to Say No and Still Get to Yes

By William Ury
(2007)

Based on best selling author William Ury’s celebrated Harvard University course for managers and professionals, The Power of a Positive No offers concrete advice and practical examples for saying No in virtually any situation. Whether you need to say No to your customer or your coworker, your employee or your CEO, your child or your spouse, you will find in this book the secret to saying No clearly, respectfully, and effectively. A Positive No has the power to profoundly transform our lives by enabling us to say Yes to what counts–our own needs, values, and priorities. The Positive No may be the most valuable life skill you’ll ever learn!

Village of Painters: Narrative Scrolls from West Bengal
Frank J. Korom, Photographs by Paul Smutko

The Patuas of West Bengal are a traditional artisan caste specializing in the production of painted narrative scrolls and the performance of songs to accompany their unrolling. Traditionally, the scroll painters wander from village to village, seeking patronage by singing their own compositions while unraveling painted scrolls on sacred and secular themes.

Latin American Posters
Public Aesthetics and Mass Politics
Edited by Russ Davidson, Foreword by Helen R. Jucero, Essays by David Craven, Russ Davidson, et al.

The political and cultural posters presented here document four decades of Latin American social and political history during a time of widespread crisis and unrest. The simplicity and directness of the political poster made it a powerful instrument for announcing the mood of the moment, transmitting messages, and mobilizing mass action.
