Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Can unknown acts of fabulosity save the world 'You betcha,' says Minnesota author Gail M. Weber. 'Especially if women are the ones doing them.' And to prove it, Weber searched for and discovered women from a tapestry of backgrounds, passions, and life paths, doing just that. Some changing the… world around them with small acts of ingenious innovation, others by simply celebrating their rare individuality. The trailblazing women you will meet in this book are not household names - 73-year-old Heather, who literally blazes her own trails on her motorcycle, quirky Jane, a comedian-turned-minister who brings improv to the pulpit, and a resourceful African mother named Angel, who broke with tribal tradition to become the first female safari leader-and then helped other women in her community become self-supporting, and more. Each woman has, in her own way, ignored what the world expected of her and followed her own arrow.With wit, warmth, and a flair for storytelling, Weber weaves together personal memoir, cultural history, and an intimate portrait of these women in a format that is entirely her own. Each chapter opens with her own irreverent reflections on her life and the ventures she should not have taken, before diving into her subjects' stories, and the ventures they embraced, including an artist named Judy, who says she 'is saving the world one painting at a time.' It is part biography, part social history, and part love letter to the stubborn, courageous, quietly extraordinary women who make the world a better place simply by being fully themselves.Inspired by George Eliot's belief that the world's growing good depends on 'unhistoric acts,' Weber reminds us that fabulosity isn't about fame. It's not even about big heroic deeds. It's about knowing what you love -and doing it.
