It describes in meticulous detail Jeffries' bouts from the 1890s up to 1905 (including round by round accounts as well as pre- and post-fight analysis), his opponents, and his training regimen. It discusses the time's heavyweight scene, including contenders, pre-fight hype and negotiations, political and legal obstacles, and the color line. Chapters also include descriptions and analysis of Corbett-Sharkey II, Fitzsimmons-Ruhlin, Fitz-Sharkey II, and Corbett-McCoy, as well as controversies surrounding several bouts.

The use of local primary sources gives readers a rare opportunity to relive Jeffries' career as if they were reading about it at the time he was fighting.

Regular job searches SUCK They don't have to if you know what to do. Put yourself in the driver's seat of your job search and get amazing job offers from companies you're dying to work with. After years of coaching students to C-Suite executives at Fortune 500's I developed a custom-tailored job search strategy designed to keep the job seeker engaged in their search and drive the offers they really want, really quickly. About this project: I've spent my career helping senior executives, talented professionals and new graduates find their dream jobs. Their job searches were slow, stalled or even DOA before we met; after just a few weeks of working together, they landed jobs they wanted. And they loved the work we did together. I bottled up the best step-by-step advice from these one-on-one sessions into 120 action-packed pages, just for you. Take it and run. Who should read this book? If you want a new job right now, you need to read this book. If you want to be known in your industry, you need to read this book. If you want your dream employer to create a job for you, you need to read this book. What you'll learn: How to take back your search and get employers to chase YOU How to take HR/Corporate Recruiters out of the process and get offers directly from hiring managers How to create an undeniable value in the market that will generate offers for you and you alone For Job Seekers: You need a new job right now. I'll show you how to: Use proven strategies to beat out more qualified competition Reignite a dead search Move into a new field Win every interview using a simple, two-step process For Rock Stars: You like where you are, but you have one eye on the next big thing and you want to build your profile. I'll show you how to: Make companies fight over you when they hear your story Stand out to recruiters and executives running "secret searches" Make your current employer beg to give you promotions for fear of losing you to the competition For Students: You're graduating, your loan payments are due and you don't know where to start. I'll show you how to: Beat out your competition, including more seasoned job seekers Get the $$$'s you really deserve instead of taking a salary you can barely live off of Set yourself up for the best promotions and job offers for your entire career Why this book? Most job search advice is terrible. Job searches are miserable. And I could spend every hour of every day of my life advising job seekers and I wouldn't scratch the surface of the need in this area. I want to reach as many people as possible with this message. I want to help job seekers take back control of their search. Everyday people come to me that need my help to find great jobs but they simply can't afford my services. Even with the 10 hours a week that I set aside for pro bono work it doesn't scratch the surface of the demand for real help for job seekers that have been struggling for months and sometimes, years.

Irenaeus, Joseph Smith, and God-Making Heresy

Irenaeus, Joseph Smith, and God-Making Heresy

Adam J. Powell

Fairleigh Dickinson University Press
2015
sidottu
Irenaeus, Joseph Smith, and God-Making Heresy seeks both to demonstrate the salience of “heresy” as a tool for analyzing instances of religious conflict far beyond the borders of traditional historical theology and to illuminate the apparent affinity for deification exhibited by some persecuted religious movements. To these ends, the book argues for a sociologically-informed redefinition of heresy as religiously-motivated opposition and applies the resulting concept to the historical cases of second-century Christians and nineteenth-century Mormons. Ultimately, Irenaeus, Joseph Smith, and God-Making Heresy is a careful application of the comparative method to two new religious movements, highlighting the social processes at work in their early doctrinal developments.
