Описание: Illuminates the roots and consequences of and offers solutions to the widespread alienation and disconnection that beset modern society
Since the beginning of the 21st century, people have become increasingly disconnected from themselves, each other, and the world around them. A "crisis of connection" stemming from growing alienation, social isolation, and fragmentation characterizes modern society. The signs of this "crisis of connection" are everywhere, from decreasing levels of empathy and trust, to burgeoning cases of suicide, depression and loneliness. The astronomical rise in inequality around the world has contributed to the critical nature of this moment.
To delve into the heart of the crisis, leading researchers and practitioners draw from the science of human connection to tell a five-part story about its roots, consequences, and solutions. In doing so, they reveal how we, in modern society, have been captive to a false story about who we are as human. This false narrative that takes individualism as a universal truth, has contributed to many of the problems that we currently face. The new story now emerging from across the human sciences underscores our social and emotional capacities and needs. The science also reveals the ways in which the privileging of the self over relationships and of individual success over the common good as well as the perpetuation of dehumanizing stereotypes have led to a crisis of connection that is now widespread. Finally, the practitioners in the volume present concrete solutions that show ways we can create a more just and humane world.
In these divisive times, The Crisis of Connection is an essential resource for bridging the political, religious, identity-based, and ideological gaps among individuals and communities. By exposing the barriers that stand in the way of our human desire to live in connection with ourselves and each other, this book illuminates concrete pathways to enhancing our awareness of our common humanity.

Описание: Based on a two-year study that followed boys from pre-kindergarten through first grade, When Boys Become Boys offers a new way of thinking about boys’ development. Through focusing on a critical moment of transition in boys’ lives, Judy Y. Chu reveals boys’ early ability to be emotionally perceptive, articulate, and responsive in their relationships, and how these “feminine” qualities become less apparent as boys learn to prove that they are boys primarily by showing that they are not girls. Chu finds that behaviors typically viewed as “natural” for boys reflect an adaptation to cultures that require boys to be stoic, competitive, and aggressive if they are to be accepted as “real boys.” Yet even as boys begin to reap the social benefits of aligning with norms of masculine behavior, they pay a psychological and relational price for renouncing parts of their humanity. Chu documents boys’ perceptions of the obstacles they face and the pressures they feel to conform, showing that compliance with rules of masculinity is neither automatic nor inevitable. This accessible and engaging book provides insight into ways in which adults can foster boys’ healthy resistance and help them to access a broader range of options as they seek to connect with others while remaining true to themselves.

Описание:
In the year of 1942, during World War 2 the first Canadian paratroopers started training. The first Airborne unit, 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion was formed, going into its first battle on June 6, 1944 (D-Day). It was disbanded when W.W. 2 ended, but Canada has had paratroopers in the Canadian Army, leading up to the creation of The Canadian Airborne Regiment in 1968, based in Edmonton, Alberta.
The author Sean Gilligan joined in 1983, as an RCR recruit. Sent to 3 Commando for training, this book explains how an untrained trooper goes through Selection, leading to the Basic Parachute Course. If successful, the inductee goes through another six months of extensive training as a platoon member. The final part of Selection involved the Airborne Indoctrination Course, two weeks of Hell. Finally if passing this course, the soldier is awarded the Airborne coin and becomes a full fledged Airborne soldier. This story focusses on a three year tour with the Airborne Regiment, in Canada and abroad. Also what happened after leaving the Airborne. After release from the Canadian Forces in 1987, the author transitioned to civilian life, but continued parachuting. Decades later, he is one of some 3000 active skydivers in Canada. This is a story of parachuting, the risks and skills required and why do it at all.
Lastly it deals with injuries during jumping and the recovery process. Included are the many near misses and close calls with death itself. Having survived these near death experiences, the author has as proven insight into those presently facing danger in harm's way overseas or at home. Ultimately parachuting is still a valid skill today, used in many applications from military parachute units in many countries, search & rescue, fire fighting, pilot training, Special Forces HALO insertion into enemy held zones, fighting the War on Terror, Astronaut training to civilian skydiving competitions to the casual everyday one time tandem student. It is not for most humans, but in the hands of a gifted, highly skilled person, it is a vital tool to have. It is also a good read for those interested in knowing why a sane person would risk life by exiting a serviceable plane in any condition (within safety limits) at altitudes exceeding 30,000 feet. For an elite warrior however, parachuting is one of the first steps to becoming one of the world's best.
