As we navigate life's terrains, we are often challenged to rediscover aspects of ourselves that we've kept hidden as a measure of protection. Dr. Knight presents a challenge for the reader to become intimate with oneself in a way that allows one to overcome the impact of hidden trauma. This journey of self-discovery reveals a message of hope in the face of uncertainty and encourages the reader to embrace the gifts that reside within. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the power of healing and its impact on how we explore the world when we love ourselves courageously.
We are all on our own spiritual journeys; no one person’s path is identical to another’s. Yet we all have much in common. We all succumb to fear at times. We all struggle with accepting reality as it is and ourselves as we are. And we all strive to increase our abilities to center our lives and our choices from a place of love. Daylight for the Soul is meant for anyone who wants guidance on the path of peace and love. With fifty-two meditations on such topics as attachment, courage, and compassion, this book provides counsel in spiritual growth and helps you find inner peace. Author Beth Freeman has spent three years gathering and meditating on these teachings from the spiritual masters, and their insights inspire us as we reflect on our own lives and the ways we can more fully embrace love over fear.
Accident law is currently under review throughout the United States, and indeed the world, as present systems prove increasingly inadequate to handle the mounting costs of automobile accidents. In this pioneering work, Guido Calabresi develops a framework for evaluating different systems of accident law. Defining the goal of accident law as the maximum reduction of accident and accident avoidance costs that can be achieved fairly, he examines ten political and economic choices implied in various approaches to reducing these costs. Calabresi then considers two fundamental problems all systems of accident law must face: who should be held responsible for accident costs, and how should they be valued? He analyzes the fault-insurance system now widely used and finds it wanting on grounds both of cost reduction objectives and fairness. In conclusion, he discusses recent proposals for reform of the law, points out questions they raise, and ends by indicating the two he thinks most likely to prevail and the fundamental conflict between them. “Calabresi’s book is most significant for its first-rate combination of modern economic analysis and legal policy. The methodology and underlying principles extend far beyond the particular subject matter of accident law to many other legal areas that could benefit from economic analysis. In turn, some economic analyses may become the richer for the discussion in this book. It is truly one of those rare important volumes.”—Gerald M Meier
Reichheld draws upon case studies of a variety of businesses including Harley-Davidson, Dell Computer, and Enterprise Rent-A-Car to show how employee and customer loyalty promote financial success. His approach to developing loyalty is based upon six principles of leadership including never profiting at the expense of partners, rewarding the right results, and honest communication. Reichheld is a Bain Fellow and author of The Loyalty Effect. c. Book News Inc.
Though a primary requirement of God for leaders, very little has been written on this subject. In this book, Dag Heward-Mills outlines very important principles with the intention of increasing the stability of churches. So relevant and practical is the content of this book that it has become an indispensable tool for many church leaders.
Drawing on Kant, Rousseau, and Habermas, Stilz argues that we owe civic obligations to the state if it is sufficiently just, and that constitutionally enshrined principles of justice in themselves are grounds for obedience to our particular state and for democratic solidarity with our fellow citizens.
Loyalty is a character trait that should be indigenous to the church. Yet the atmosphere of loyalty is becoming “rare air” in this world. There are many in the church who practice “bandwagon loyalty.” They are following the fashionable trends and the latest fads of Christianity. In this book, you will see loyalty put on display. It has been written with the hope that you will add loyalty to the contents of your character. There are many who speak the vocabulary of loyalty. There are few who function in the vocation of loyalty. This book exposes the current trend of the “free agent” mentality and the “grass is greener syndrome.”
