Living Philosophy: A Historical Introduction to Philosophical Ideas
by Lewis VaughnThis second edition of Living Philosophy guides students in a survey of the historical march of philosophical ideas, encouraging an appreciation of the significance of these ideas in Western and Eastern thought. Living Philosophy provides this guidance in five fundamental ways: it tells a coherent story of philosophical thought from the pre-Socratics to the present; it provides the cultural and intellectual background for this story; it explains why the major issues and arguments are important and relevant today; it includes substantial, well-chosen excerpts from the philosophers' works; and it presents all these elements in a way that engages and stimulates student interest and understanding. Living Philosophy includes solid coverage of critical-thinking skills and argument basics as well as practice in reading philosophical works. Students learn how to do philosophy--to think and write philosophically--when they get encouragement and practice in analyzing and critiquing their own views as well as those philosophers they study. To this end, Living Philosophy emphasizes philosophical writing, reinforced with step-by-step coaching in how to write argumentative essays on philosophical topics and supported by multiple opportunities to hone basic skills. Living Philosophy further engages today's learners with abundant illustrations and graphics; marginal glosses, questions, and quotations; profiles of a diverse array of philosophers; and ample representation of non-Western and nontraditional sources and voices.

Living Through Loss: Interventions Across the Life Span
by Nancy R. Hooyman Betty J. KramerLiving Through Loss is the first book to identify the many ways in which people experience loss over the course of life and to discuss the interventions most effective at each stage of life. The authors' starting point is that loss comes in many forms and can include not only suffering the death of a person one loves but also giving birth to a child with disabilities, living with chronic illness, or being abused, assaulted, or otherwise traumatized. They approach loss from the perspective of the resilience model, which acknowledges the capacity of people to integrate loss into their lives, and write sensitively about the role of age, race, culture, sexual orientation, gender, and spirituality in a person's response to loss. More than a comprehensive source on loss, the volume is distinguished by the authors' beautiful use of clients' experiences-and their own-thus making their book definitive and indelible.

The Living World
by George B. JohnsonThe Living World is often considered a student favorite. George Johnson has written this introductory biology textbook from the ground up to be an engaging and accessible learning tool with an emphasis on "how things work and why things happen the way they do". The Living World focuses on concepts rather than terminology and technical information, and features a straight forward,clear writing style and a wide variety of media assets to enhance the content of the textbook. George believes that ‘relevancy is the window’ in which students can learn biology. This is shown through every chapter of this 10th edition, which is focused directly on the relevance of its content to today’s students. When the discussion of a topic is linked to a student’s own experience, it does not seem so unapproachable, and the utility of learning it is far easier to accept.
