“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.” Anthropologist Margaret Mead’s famous quote may come to mind as you read this second volume in the Seeking Our Humanity series. In the first book, a small group of friends learned that the environmental crisis plaguing the Earth was not only grounded in our material pollution of land, seas and skies. A mysterious traveler from another plane of existence taught them that the Life Being Earth feels the anger, hatred, violence, and cruelty that people bear toward one another; they poison her life’s very essence. Gently and firmly, he emphasized the urgency of the crisis and the gravity of the stakes: Earth will soon reach a tipping point that will make her uninhabitable for humankind. The mysterious guest invited them to join with beings throughout the universe to rescue the Earth, and taught them the simple steps that they could take daily to help her heal from this invisible, deadly toxicity. Called and empowered to be part of the solution, they joined forces to do so. In this installment, the commitment of these twelve dear friends to the mission deepens and expands. As they hone their skills, they confront the deep-seated doubts and fears that arise from so daunting a challenge. Readers find themselves embraced in the tender compassion that permeates their relationships, the deep listening and encouragement that they share with one another. Those who seek to heal the Earth, find healing themselves.

Exciting News: Seeking Our Humanity received Honorable Mention Award at the 2020 Paris Book Festival Seeking Our Humanity is an opportunity for humankind to save the Earth from her present precarious condition. Her symptoms are obvious: raging storms, warming oceans, sweeping fires, harmful plastics in our food and water. Global pollution of her lands, seas and skies are abuses that she suffers daily. For millennia, we took Earth for granted and believed that she was impervious to our abuses. Now we finally recognize Earth’s vulnerability. We see the existential crisis our choices have caused and we must face the unthinkable reality that life, as we know it, might well end. Thankfully many are taking action to limit the harm of our material waste by refusing, reducing, reusing and recycling. As we strive to reverse the damage already done, one wonders if there is more we can do to help heal Mother Earth? Indeed there is! Earth’s ill health is rooted in the toxicity of human emotions and actions. This is the harsh truth presented in Seeking Our Humanity. But there is more! This book is filled with hope. As it reveals the problem, it also shows us how to address it! Just as our physical and chemical trash poison Earth’s land, sky and waters, our hatred, anger, violence, and harsh judgment poison her life essence. Although this damage is not visible, nor scientifically measurable, it is no less real and threatening to Earth’s survival and ours. As a gentle man from parts unknown illuminates the problem and the solutions to a group of old friends, the readers of Seeking Out Humanity learn the simple steps that they and all people everywhere can take to help heal the Life Being Earth. Most important, they learn that they, that we, are not alone in this commitment.

Mother Earth’s health crisis is no secret. What Awaits Us... does not shy from the truth about Earth’s decline. Instead, through a truly enchanting tale, it expands our understanding of our enormous global challenge, and lays out a solution that every person on the planet can adopt. In astonishing and touching encounters, Nature’s precious representatives telepathically deliver urgent messages that humankind’s inhumanity is at the root of Earth’s failing health. We discover from these sagacious creatures that the negative energy created from our thoughts, words, and deeds is even more destructive to the planet than is our material pollution. Although the messages funneled through this story are heartbreaking, hope is inspired when a diverse group of characters, including wildlife, amiable humans, deceased ancestors, and Those Who Came Before, collaborate in developing a plan to restore Earth’s health. Through simple steps, The Plan, which is a transformative opportunity, teaches us how to release our negative tendencies. The Plan easily fits into our daily lives, and as we make positive changes, the Earth’s health rapidly improves. By participating in The Plan, you will profoundly help the planet while also healing yourself.

Much of Stuart Kauffman's work in the philosophy of evolutionary biology has centered on the question of what he calls "prestatability" in evolution: that is, whether or not science can precisely predict the future development of biological features in organisms, using a singular "FinalTheory" of evolution. In this book, Kauffman argues that the development of life on earth is not prestatable, because no theory could ever fully account for the limitless variability of evolution. He believes that the biological universe's primary trait is that it is creative, and that acknowledgingthis creativity will lead to a radically different way in which humans view themselves and all other living beings. It is an argument against Reductive Materialism.Kauffman also asserts that man's Modern preoccupation to explain all things with scientific law has deadened our creative natures. In his words, he aims for the book to be "one that revises our scientific world view of the universe as entirely entailed by law." Instead, he advocates an approach toscience that accounts for "unprestatable" creativity, thus allowing humans to fully realize their creative selves. The book will build off the ideas developed in his last two works, Reinventing the Sacred and Investigations. Incorporating philosophers like Kant and Descartes, as well as the scienceof Newton and Darwin, Humanity in a Creative Universe is Stuart Kauffman's argument for a creative and unpredictable view of modern science.

Seeking God is a Platonic dialogue on the nature of the religious experience and the conditions under which this experience is possible. The dialogue takes place between three characters, a philosopher, a Sufi, and a Christian monk. They meet in the Syrian Desert and share their views and experiences on what it takes to have a union with God. The main premise that is presented and analyzed in the dialogue is that God reveals himself in nature, human civilization, and the human heart. Love is the beginning and end of the path that leads to the quest for God and the light that illumines this path. Living from the standpoint of the Divine is the basis of the good life. This book presents a vivid picture of the beauty and sublimity of the Divine, the joy of the religious experience, and the joy of life.

Toward The Psychological Humanities written by Mark Freeman and has been published by Taylor & Francis this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2023-07-05 with Psychology categories.
Mark Freeman’s inspiring account of the burgeoning field of the psychological humanities presents a clear and compelling vision of what the discipline of psychology might become. Valuable though the scientific perspective has been for advancing the discipline, Freeman maintains that significant dimensions of the human experience elude this perspective and call for an entirely different kind of psychology, one more closely tied to the arts and humanities. Issuing his call for the psychological humanities in the form of a ten chapter "manifesto," Freeman’s groundbreaking book offers a comprehensive rationale for a more inclusive, pluralistic, and artful approach to exploring the psychological world in all of its potential complexity, obscurity, and beauty. Engaging and accessible, this bold, provocative book is destined to spark significant discussion and debate in audiences including advanced undergraduates, postgraduates, and professionals in the field of psychology with interests in theoretical and philosophical psychology, history of psychology, clinical psychology, humanistic psychology, and qualitative psychology. It will also be welcomed by those in philosophy, literature, and the arts, as well as anyone intrigued by psychological life who may be interested in encountering a vital new approach to examining the human condition.

Part II of The Humanity of Private Law charts a new course for English private law in the twenty-first century. Part I set out the vision of human flourishing that English private law has in mind in seeking to promote its subjects' flourishing. Part II argues in favour of a very different account of what human flourishing involves, and explains what private law would look like were it to base itself on this alternative vision of the nature of human flourishing. This volume: sets out and evaluates different models of what human flourishing involves; argues in favour of the view that human flourishing involves being engaged in a quest to lead a truthful life; explains in what ways a private law that sought to foster this distinctive vision of human flourishing would be different from English private law in its current state, in particular with regard to: (i) tackling fraud; (ii) promoting freedom of speech; (iii) preserving attention capacities; (iv) protecting people from being subjected to degrading or hateful treatment; and (v) enabling people to make a fresh start in their lives; and, considers whether and when it would be legitimate for the courts to transform English private law in the ways suggested in this volume. Part II of The Humanity of Private Law is a radical and prophetic book that is essential reading for anyone who is interested in understanding the contribution private law can make to our living in a society that promotes the flourishing of all its members.

Seeking Passage written by Rebecca A. Martusewicz and has been published by Teachers College Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2001 with Education categories.
In this eloquent collection of essays, Rebecca Martusewicz positions a philosophy of education that relies on what transpires between teachers and learners in various contexts. She thoughtfully analyzes how, in the relationship between teachers and learners, all kinds of ideas, beliefs, interpretations, and meanings are generated as a result of potent generative forces that depend, as she demonstrates using post-structuralist theories, on difference as their fuel. Ultimately she argues that to become educated requires an attention to the welfare of self and others and a willingness to confront and shift one’s own habits, practices, and beliefs for that purpose. This work contains: clear translations of post-structuralist theories such as those of Deleuze, Serres, and Derrida; well-written essays that blend good storytelling, theory, and ethical analysis to reconceptualize education as the means toward social justice; and a clear argument for the drawing together of analyses of difference introduced by post-structuralism with attention to ethics and social justice as they apply to education.
