Three Divine Works
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Maloney, Sharon, PUBLISHER: PublishAmerica, There are many simple treasures in life. Happiness is one of them and, in my opinion, is the ultimate goal for many people who seek after it. Three Divine Works is a book where you can discover what creates happy feelings and how to achieve this. The main themes are spirituality and inspirational thought. Both of these ideas bring about happiness in different ways. Having a spiritual goal can be helpful in finding peace or structure in your life. Believing in God, for example, can be a beneficial approach to coping with stress, or other issues that seem too complicated or confusing to handle by yourself. Looking for a spiritual solution might be the answer, and when a bad situation works out, happiness results. My poetry will leave you with a lasting impression and a happy note concerning your feelings and special desires that make life so interesting that you want to see more each day. The stars above and the rainbow after the rain has come are indeed a part of nature and the big scheme of things that inspire, delight, and capture your heart I have also written poems about my experiences while traveling, meeting people, and becoming a writer.

In Search of Small Gods
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harrison, Jim, PUBLISHER: Copper Canyon Press, "Funny and tender beneath a wry and gruff seen-it-all veneer, Harrison contemplates death, discerns divinity in every stone and leaf, and nobility in ordinary lives, and laughs at our attempts to separate ourselves from the rest of nature."--"Booklist" "His poems succeed on the basis of an open heart and a still-ravenous appetite for life."--"The Texas Observer" Now in paperback, Jim Harrison's best-selling poetry book "In Search of Small Gods" is where birds and humans converse, autobiographies are fluid, and unknown gods flutter just out of sight. In terrains real and imagined--from remote canyons and anonymous thickets in the American West to secret basements in World War II Europe--Harrison calls upon readers to live fully in a world where "Death steals everything except our stories." "Maybe the problem is that I got involved with the wrong crowd of gods when I was seven. At first they weren't harmful and only showed themselves as fish, birds, especially herons and loons, turtles, a bobcat and a small bear, but not deer and rabbits who only offered themselves as food. And maybe I spent too much time inside the water of lakes and rivers. Underwater seemed like the safest church I could go to... " Jim Harrison is one of America's most versatile and celebrated writers. He is the author of over thirty books of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction, including "Legends of the Fall" and "Dalva." His work has been translated into two dozen languages. He lives in Arizona and Montana.
The Faithful Executioner: Life and Death, Honor and Shame in
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Harrington, Joel F., PUBLISHER: Farrar Straus Giroux, The extraordinary story of a Renaissance-era executioner and his world, based on a rare and overlooked journal In the late s a Nuremberg man named Frantz Schmidt began to do something utterly remarkable for his era: he started keeping a journal. But what makes Schmidt even more compelling to us is his day job. For forty-five years, Schmidt was an efficient and prolific public executioner, employed by the state to extract confessions and put convicted criminals to death. In his years of service, he executed 361 people and tortured, flogged, or disfigured hundreds more. Is it possible that a man who practiced such cruelty could also be insightful, compassionate, humane--even progressive? In his groundbreaking book, the historian Joel F. Harrington looks for the answer in Schmidt's journal, whose immense significance has been ignored until now. Harrington uncovers details of Schmidt's medical practice, his marriage to a woman ten years older than him, his efforts at penal reform, his almost touching obsession with social status, and most of all his conflicted relationship with his own craft and the growing sense that it could not be squared with his faith. A biography of an ordinary man struggling for his soul, "The Faithful Executioner "is also an unparalleled portrait of Europe on the cusp of modernity, yet riven by conflict and encumbered by paranoia, superstition, and abuses of power. In his intimate portrait of a Nuremberg executioner, Harrington also sheds light on our own fraught historical moment. Acquista Ora

Crawling from the Wreckage
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dyer, Gwynne, PUBLISHER: Random House Canada, In this illuminating collection of columns from the last five years, Gwynne Dyer finds reasons to be optimistic about the world, and searches for clues to how and when we turned the corner. Gwynne Dyer is cheering up. Sure, the past decade has had more than its share of stupid wars, obsessions about terrorism, denial about climate change, rapacious turbo-capitalism, and lies, lies, lies. But signs of progress actually do abound. While the world is far from perfect as we embark on a fresh decade, Dyer believes that the "sense of sliding out of control towards ten different kinds of disaster has gone." When things go wrong it's always easy to pin blame -- but singling out the forces that lead to positive change can be trickier. In Dyer's previous book of columns, With Every Mistake, the focus was on how everything got so bad. With this new collection, Dyer ferrets out the signs of hope, combing through the events of recent history in an attempt to anticipate what the future might have in store. For anyone who wants to understand the larger forces that shape our society and our world, Crawling from the Wreckage makes for necessary and vital reading.
Political Dissent in Democratic Athens: Intellectual Critics
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Ober, Josiah, PUBLISHER: Princeton University Press, How and why did the Western tradition of political theorizing arise in Athens during the late fifth and fourth centuries B.C.? By interweaving intellectual history with political philosophy and literary analysis, Josiah Ober argues that the tradition originated in a high-stakes debate about democracy. Since elite Greek intellectuals tended to assume that ordinary men were incapable of ruling themselves, the longevity and resilience of Athenian popular rule presented a problem: how to explain the apparent success of a regime "irrationally" based on the inherent wisdom and practical efficacy of decisions made by non-elite citizens? The problem became acute after two oligarchic "coups d' tat" in the late fifth century B.C. The generosity and statesmanship that democrats showed after regaining political power contrasted starkly with the oligarchs' violence and corruption. Since it was no longer self-evident that "better men" meant "better government," critics of democracy sought new arguments to explain the relationship among politics, ethics, and morality. Ober offers fresh readings of the political works of Thucydides, Plato, and Aristotle, among others, by placing them in the context of a competitive community of dissident writers. These thinkers struggled against both democratic ideology and intellectual rivals to articulate the best and most influential criticism of popular rule. The competitive Athenian environment stimulated a century of brilliant literary and conceptual innovation. Through Ober's re-creation of an ancient intellectual milieu, early Western political thought emerges not just as a "footnote to Plato," but as a dissident commentary on the first Western democracy.

Kentucky Politics and Government: Do We Stand United?
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Miller, Penny M., PUBLISHER: University of Nebraska Press, Penny M. Miller takes a comprehensive approach to Kentucky politics and government. She uses the details of the state's political institutions and processes, its policy issues, and its place in national politics to demonstrate the tension between Kentucky's forces of change and its inertia. Since the Civil War, geographic, economic, and cultural factional divisions have dominated the struggle for progress in the Bluegrass state. Yet Kentucky is in a state of change, and its political institutions have undergone significant transformations in the last few decades. Miller points out that the state's judicial system, long one of the nation's least-altered, has recently become one of its most innovative; the educational system has undergone radical legislative reformation, trying to escape its near last-place national ranking. The legislative branch has gained more independence and autonomy, and its relationship to the executive branch has experienced an enormous readjustment. The state has emerged from its past stereotypes of bourbon, fast horses, burley tobacco, and coal mines. Some things endure, though--political corruption, voter apathy, and an aged constitution. This book, the only comprehensive study of politics and government in Kentucky, illuminates contemporary problems within their historical context and suggests how the state's institutions, policies, politics, and people will formulate the future of Kentucky.

Samuel Johnson: The Life of an Author
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Lipking, Lawrence I., PUBLISHER: Harvard University Press, He was a servant to the public, a writer for hire. He was a hero, an author adding to the glory of his nation. But can a writer be both hack and hero? The career of Samuel Johnson, recounted here by Lawrence Lipking, proves that the two can be one. And it further proves, in its enduring interest for readers, that academic fashions today may be a bit hasty in pronouncing the "death of the author." A book about the life of an author, about how an author is made, not born, Lipking's "Samuel Johnson" is the story of the man as he lived--and lives--in his work. Tracing Johnson's rocky climb from anonymity to fame, in the course of which he came to stand for both the greatness of English literature and the good sense of the common reader, the book shows how this life transformed the very nature of authorship. Beginning with the defiant letter to Chesterfield that made Johnson a celebrity, "Samuel Johnson" offers fresh readings of all the writer's major works, viewed through the lens of two ongoing preoccupations: the urge to do great deeds--and the sense that bold expectations are doomed to disappointment. Johnson steers between the twin perils of ambition and despondency. Mounting a challenge to the emerging industry that glorified and capitalized on Shakespeare, he stresses instead the playwright's power to cure the illusions of everyday life. All Johnson's works reveal his extraordinary sympathy with ordinary people. In his groundbreaking "Dictionary," in his poems and essays, and in" The Lives of the English Poets," we see Johnson becoming the key figure in the culture of literacy that reaches from his day to our own.

Policy Design for Democracy
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Schneider, Anne Larason / Ingram, Helen, PUBLISHER: University Press of Kansas, How can democracy be improved in an age when people are profoundly disenchanted with government? Part of the answer lies in the design of public policy that unmistakenly works to advance citizenship by listening to, educating, and involving ordinary people. Rather than serve mainly the narrow interests of powerful groups who are socially constructed as "deserving" or issuing discipline and punishment to powerless people socially constructed as "undeserving", public policy needs to advance citizenship, solve problems, pursue justice, and balance the interests of individuals with a concern for the collective good. Policy Design for Democracy is a theoretically sophisticated work that draws examples from a wide array of public policy arenas. It summarizes four current approaches to policy theory -- pluralism, policy sciences, public choice, and critical theory -- and shows how none offers more than a partial view of the policy design characteristics that support and perpetuate democracy. Schneider and Ingram then develop a theory of public policymaking predicated on understanding how differences in policy designs are related to differences in the contexts from which they emerge and how these designs have an impact on democracy. One of the first books to examine systematically the substantive aspects of public policy, Policy Design for Democracy is written clearly and with sufficient examples to make it easily understandable by undergraduates. Its linkage of public policy to citizenship is an important antidote to the overly technical and goal-driven orientation adopted by the policy sciences and public choice, and to the overly self-interested and strategic political games found inpluralist theory. Schneider and Ingram close by recommending a series of reforms that will improve policy designs and help restore citizen confidence in government.

In Distant Fields
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bingham, Charlotte, PUBLISHER: Bantam Press, Her wonderful new story, sure to be another bestseller, is about love and heartbreak, but most importantly, the remarkable nature of female friendship. Christmas : Kitty and Lady Partita are best friends despite vastly different backgrounds. Partita has invited her friend, Kitty to stay at her ancestral home, Borders Castle. The grandeur of Partita's family seat is in stark contrast to Kitty's home in London where she and her mother, Violet, struggle to maintain appearances despite Kitty's father gambling away the family money. Kitty is introduced to the aristocracy -- a world she finds fascinatingly decorative and theatrical. She is enthralled by it, and desperately wants to be part of this way of life that is so far removed from the genteel poverty in which she and her mother are forced to exist. But war breaks out, not only irrevocably changing society, but also the lives of these two beautiful young women. The headstrong Partita and down-to-earth Kitty become nurses, caring selflessly for men who have been horrifically injured in the trenches. In Distant Fields is about the mothers and daughters, sisters and wives who are left holding things together on the home front and caring for their men. But, more importantly, it's about the nature of female friendship. "From the Trade Paperback edition."

Of Farming and Classics: A Memoir
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Grene, David, PUBLISHER: University of Chicago Press, A fiercely independent thinker, colorful storyteller, and spirited teacher, David Grene devoted his life to two things: farming, which he began as a boy in Ireland and continued into old age; and classics, which he taught for several decades that culminated in his translating and editing, with Richmond Lattimore, of "The Complete Greek Tragedies." In this charming memoir, which he wrote during the years leading up to his death in at the age of eighty-nine, Grene weaves together these interests to tell a quirky and absorbing story of the sometimes turbulent and always interesting life he split between the University of Chicago--where he helped found the Committee on Social Thought--and the farm he kept back in Ireland. Charting the path that took him from Europe to Chicago in , and encompassing his sixty-five-year career at the university, Grene's book draws readers into the heady and invigorating climate of his time there. And it is elegantly balanced with reflections stemming from his work on the farm where he hunted, plowed and regularly traveled on horseback to bring his cows home for milking. Grene's form and humor are quite his own, and his brilliant storytelling will enthrall anyone interested in the classics, rural Ireland, or twentieth-century intellectual history, especially as it pertains to the University of Chicago.
