Описание:
A selection of ruminative nature writing on walking and the beauty of New England, here Thoreau's characteristically wide-ranging and philosophical style offers a multitude of fascinating observations. Excursions presents Thoreau's most studied and expansive collection of writing on the natural world. An early advocate of conservationism, he discusses here, in mesmerising prose, the complex but essential relationship between man and nature. This edition includes a remarkable Biographical Sketch by Thoreau's great contemporary and mentor Ralph Waldo Emerson.
This choice collection of Thoreau's nature writing includes the essays 'The Succession of Forest Trees', 'Walking', and 'Autumnal Tints' - each one an explorative reach into the heart of the natural world. Thoreau's travels through the woods of New England are not only physical journeys through some of the most awe-inspiring landscapes in America but also spiritual excursions of the mind.
Описание: For those seeking a way to change opinions of shared governance from pointless and unlikely to possible and intriguing, Shared Governance in Higher Education, Volume 1 will trigger meaningful conversations by offering valuable new perspectives. Experienced governance members, the contributors provide practical insights for everyone involved in academic governance and illuminate the subtle aspects of governance that make the difference between success or failure. Each chapter takes a different view of governing within institutions of higher education and explores topics such as engaging all stakeholders (including students) in shared governance; building on the benefits of a large, complex system; and bringing together pressing current needs with realistic strategic planning. Several in-depth descriptions of academic challenges, and the many roles of governance in addressing them, are thoughtfully explored. The contributors look both deeply and broadly, moving beyond platitudes. The result is a volume that will appeal to those beginning their terms of service as governance members or transitioning into leadership positions, as well as those looking for ways to assist others via governance symposia or conferences, and that will enable readers to shape their involvement in shared governance in unique new ways.

Описание:
Scott's heart is all over these pages. He masterfully uses the art of story to inspire his readers to see the hope beyond their pain, provision beyond their inadequacy, and love even in their darkest hours. Everyone has a story and this book will leave you wanting to share yours. -Carey Nieuwhof, Founding Pastor, Connexus Church and author of Didn't See It Coming
We all love a good story. We love listening to stories. We love telling stories. Stories engage our imagination, fuel our emotions and move us to action. Stories can build bridges between multiple generations. Maybe the reason we feel like we are unable to shape and influence those around us is because we've silenced our story with "The End" where God wants us to tell the story of our "And then...." So, what's your story? Where have you settled for "The End" in your life? What if instead of settling, "The End" of your story becomes the beginning of your greatest "And then..."?
This book will inspire you to not just tell better stories but to never stop sharing your story.
