The Gentle Art of Blessing: A Simple Practice That Will Transform You and Your World
by Pierre PradervandHow can a blessing change the world? According to Pierre Pradervand, making the conscious choice to bless every person or being around you can truly make a world of difference in yourself and in others around you. In The Gentle Art of Blessing, Pradervand shows that the practice of blessing has the power to create more than just a renewed perspective. It unleashes tangible benefits throughout your entire life -- through your daily interactions, your life-long relationships, and in the way your approach your place in the world. Pradervand describes blessing as genuinely wishing the best for another person through seeing their individual worth and honoring them for it. By looking at several different perspectives -- providing spiritual inspiration from Hinduism, Taoism, the Koran, the Bible, and other important spiritual sources -- The Gentle Art of Blessing explores the potential in shifting one's attitude from confrontation and negativity to acceptance and enthusiasm. A powerfully simple way of perceiving and shaping our surroundings, blessings can reflect the unconditional love and acceptance that is necessary for world -- and inner -- peace.
A Gentle Answer: Our 'Secret Weapon' in an Age of Us Against Them
by Scott SaulsA remarkable vision for how Christians can live with countercultural gentleness in a perpetually angry, attacking, outraged time.Wow! What a great book!" -- Max LucadoIn a defensive and divided era, how can followers of Jesus reveal a better way of living, one that loves others as God loves us?

Gente que sume: Llene su tanque relacional para la vida, el amor y el liderazgo
by John TownsendLas organizaciones saludables precisan líderes saludables y de óptimo nivel. En un entorno cada vez más complejo y competitivo, los líderes necesitan estar a la vanguardia.Los líderes exitosos entienden el mundo de las relaciones. El “factor gente” es de vital importancia para su competencia y enfoque. Dos problemas ralentizan su eficacia:Los líderes son los “originadores” de la mayoría de sus relaciones; es decir que lideran, guían, dirigen, desarrollan, asesoran, entrenan y alientan a aquellos en sus vidas. Si bien ser originadores beneficia a otros, desafortunadamente están en desequilibrio respecto de ser los “destinatarios” o receptores. Tienen muy pocas relaciones clave que los favorezcan, lo que respalda su crecimiento y desarrollo, y en las que pueden sentirse plenamente conocidos y comprendidos.Los líderes gastan demasiada energía con las personas equivocadas. Por naturaleza, son solucionadores de problemas, y emplean su tiempo y atención en las personas que los desgastan. Todo líder puede identificarse con esa “persona del proyecto” que se ha puesto al hombro para intentar corregir, orientar, ayudar, rescatar o reparar, y en la que a veces desperdician su energía durante años, solo para darse cuenta de que no fue un tiempo bien empleado.Los líderes están patas para arriba en sus relaciones, y este libro los ayudará a pararse derechos, enseñándoles sobre estos siete tipos de personas: coaches, camaradas, colegas, relaciones casuales, de cuidado, crónicas y contaminantes.Todo líder necesita cobrar perspectiva y tener a mano herramientas que le ayuden a saber invertir su tiempo sabiamente con las personas adecuadas y evitar las incorrectas. Con esa comprensión y habilidades, se evitarán muchos problemas en el trabajo y en la vida, como ser un funcionamiento cerebral más bajo, pérdida de energía, conflictos de relación, malas decisiones, problemas de concentración, de salud y luchas mentales.

The Genius of Women: From Overlooked to Changing the World
by Janice KaplanWe tell girls that they can be anything, so why do 90 percent of Americans believe that geniuses are almost always men? New York Times bestselling journalist Janice Kaplan explores the powerful forces that have rigged the system—and celebrates the women geniuses past and present who have triumphed anyway. Even in this time of rethinking women&’s roles, we define genius almost exclusively through male achievement. When asked to name a genius, people mention Albert Einstein, Leonardo da Vinci, and Steve Jobs. As for great women? In one survey, the only female genius anyone listed was Marie Curie. Janice Kaplan, the New York Times bestselling author of The Gratitude Diaries, set out to determine why the extraordinary work of so many women has been brushed aside. Using her unique mix of memoir, narrative, and inspiration, she makes surprising discoveries about women geniuses now and throughout history, in fields from music to robotics. Through interviews with neuroscientists, psychologists, and dozens of women geniuses at work in the world today—including Nobel Prize winner Frances Arnold and AI expert Fei-Fei Li—she proves that genius isn't just about talent. It's about having that talent recognized, nurtured, and celebrated. Across the generations, even when they face less-than-perfect circumstances, women geniuses have created brilliant and original work. In The Genius of Women, you&’ll learn how they ignored obstacles and broke down seemingly unshakable barriers. The geniuses in this moving, powerful, and very entertaining book provide more than inspiration—they offer a clear blueprint to everyone who wants to find her own path and move forward with passion.

Genius of Geneva: A Popular Account of the Life and Times of John Calvin
by L. PenningThe present volume is the English translation of the original Dutch language biography of John Calvin (July 10, 1509 - May 27, 1564), a French theologian, pastor and reformer in Geneva during the Protestant Reformation. Born Jehan Cauvin in Noyon, Picardy, France, Calvin was a principal figure in the development of the system of Christian theology later called Calvinism, aspects of which include the doctrines of predestination and of the absolute sovereignty of God in salvation of the human soul from death and eternal damnation, in which doctrines Calvin was influenced by and elaborated upon the Augustinian and other Christian traditions. Various Congregational, Reformed and Presbyterian churches, which look to Calvin as the chief expositor of their beliefs, have spread throughout the world.
The Genius of Being: Contemplating the Profound Intelligence of Existence
by Peter RalstonPeter Ralston’s exceptionally lucid trilogy on the nature of human consciousness culminates here in The Genius of Being, a book of deep contemplations on the unseen elements that create our world. The first volume, The Book of Not Knowing, garnered much praise as a comprehensive exploration of the depths of self and consciousness. The second volume, Pursuing Consciousness, clarifies the difference between enlightenment and self-transformation, and then pairs these two goals in a strikingly effective way. This third book is both shorter and more complex, taking us straight to the heart of the origins of our experience. In a progression of illuminating assertions, Ralston shows us how human consciousness carves out distinctions from whatever is absolutely true. This dynamic not only generates both self and reality from nothing, it imbues them with the quality of objective truth. From the time we first distinguish between self and not-self as infants, we begin making a sequence of existential assumptions that result in the illusion that a self is some ethereal “object” within. This universally accepted assumption persists despite the failure of exhaustive investigations to locate this inner self.This book is not for the faint of heart or the casual seeker, but contemplating the assertions here empowers you to personally and experientially grasp what is rarely even glimpsed: a profound consciousness of the genesis of human experience.

Genes and the Motivation to Use Substances
by Scott F. StoltenbergHuman beings have been using intoxicating substances for millennia. But while most people have used psychoactive substances without becoming dependent on them, a significant minority develop substance use disorders. The question remains: why does addiction occur in some and not others? The 61st installment of the Nebraska Symposium on Motivation, Genes and the Motivation to Use Substances probes the complex role of genetics in substance use and abuse across diverse methodologies, research organisms, levels of analysis and disciplines. Its combined lifespan/motivation approach to individual differences sheds necessary light on genetic vs. environmental factors in vulnerability, addiction risk, the relationship between behavioral disinhibition and substance use and the motivation to quit. While alcohol use/abuse is the focus of much of the book, its chapters provide scientific and clinical insights into substance abuse in general as well as implications for treatment. And an intriguing conclusion discusses the need to bridge the gap between genetics and neuroscience and the best scientific conditions in which this integration may thrive. Included in the coverage: * Rodent models of genetic contributions to the motivation to use alcohol. * The adolescent origins of substance abuse disorders * The developmental matrix of addictive behavior * The genetics of cannabis involvement * The DNA methylation signature of smoking * Genomics of impulsivity: integrating genetics and neuroscience. Reflecting the current state of knowledge in a field with groundbreaking potential, Genes and the Motivation to Use Substances is a fascinating resource for psychologists, psychiatrists, geneticists, neuroscientists, social workers, policymakers and researchers in addiction.

Generation XL: Raising Healthy, Intelligent Kids in a High-Tech, Junk-Food World
by Joseph Mercola Ben LernerChildhood is a pivotal time for good nutrition. Organs and blood streams nurtured with junk food cannot build a foundation for good health and longevity as an adult. Drs. Joseph Mercola and Ben Lerner believe profound inactivity, addiction to electronic media, and diets of super-sized fast food and sugar-laden beverages have created a national emergency. Generation XL is a clarion call and a detailed guide to giving your child a vibrant, successful future and a healthy, wholesome, invigorating youth.As children riddled with pain, illness, learning disorders, and even depression begin to show up everywhere, rather than looking at brain development, nutrition, and lack of movement as the culprits, concerned parents are turning to more and more medications. Think about that. Is that how we were designed? To make medication a way of life and to be drugged early on a consistent basis?What does the future hold for us when kids are overweight, out of shape, and taking medications for the effects? What kind of children are we creating?This is not a diet book-far, far from it. Dropping another diet book into the same culture will do nothing but take up more room on your shelf. Generation XL shows you how kids were created to eat, breathe, sleep, run, and live. At the same time, Drs. Mercola and Lerner help you change your family culture and recognize where the culture around you isn't working so you can avoid it or help to change it.Since prevention is always easier (and wiser) than cure, incorporating the lifestyle changes suggested in Generation XL gives your child a realistic way to reach and maintain a healthy weight; dramatically reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and other health risks; and build a strong body and positive mental attitude, maximizing his or her IQ and giving the best chance for success.
