Описание: This book explores the many different strands in the language of civil society from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries. Through a series of case-studies it investigates the applicability of the term to a wide range of historical settings. The contributors show how past understandings of the term were often very different from (even in some respects the exact opposite of) those held today.

Описание: Follow one girl as she builds a rocket and plans to take her friends on an amazing trip to the Sun and Moon. But will the task prove more difficult than she first thought? Imaginatively illustrated by T.S Spookytooth, this clever and inventive poem was written by eleven-year-old Collins Big Cat 2011 Writing Competition winner Nicole Sharrocks.
After arriving home from a tour of combat duty in the traumatic, tangled jungles of Vietnam, returning to a pre-war status as a civilian seemed unattainable, hopeless.
Finally, about the time all hope in living had disappeared... a long-forgotten box was brought down from the attic.
What I discovered inside the box brought shining rays of light into my dark soul. My journey of healing and transformation started that day because I had entrusted the box some twenty years earlier to "other hands" in the midst of unspeakable, unimaginable violence.
While reading The Healing Box, you'll discover some of the many extraordinary and supernatural ways God communicates with anyone who is willing to listen...are you one of them?

Описание:
New York Post Best Book of 2016
We often think of our capacity to experience the suffering of others as the ultimate source of goodness. Many of our wisest policy-makers, activists, scientists, and philosophers agree that the only problem with empathy is that we dont have enough of it.
Nothing could be farther from the truth, argues Yale researcher Paul Bloom. In AGAINST EMPATHY, Bloom reveals empathy to be one of the leading motivators of inequality and immorality in society.
Far from helping us to improve the lives of others, empathy is a capricious and irrational emotion that appeals to our narrow prejudices. It muddles our judgment and, ironically, often leads to cruelty. We are at our best when we are smart enough not to rely on it, but to draw instead upon a more distanced compassion.
Basing his argument on groundbreaking scientific findings, Bloom makes the case that some of the worst decisions made by individuals and nationswho to give money to, when to go to war, how to respond to climate change, and who to imprisonare too often motivated by honest, yet misplaced, emotions. With precision and wit, he demonstrates how empathy distorts our judgment in every aspect of our lives, from philanthropy and charity to the justice system; from medical care and education to parenting and marriage. Without empathy, Bloom insists, our decisions would be clearer, fairer, andyesultimately more moral.
Brilliantly argued, urgent and humane, AGAINST EMPATHY shows us that, when it comes to both major policy decisions and the choices we make in our everyday lives, limiting our impulse toward empathy is often the most compassionate choice we can make.
