Paperback. Condición: Good. Why are so many intelligent and compassionate people embarrassed to say they find wisdom and comfort in the Bible? Why do so many seekers turn to New Age religions instead of the Bible? And how, as a society, did we come to cede biblical interpretation to those who would use the Bible as a tool for division and exclusion? In his groundbreaking work The Good Book, Peter Gomes shows how to read the Bible and what it says about the topics that concern us all, including joy, suffering, evil, and goodness. He also explains what the Bible really says about women, gays and lesbians, and people of color. With compassion, humor, and insight, Gomes, who has been hailed by Time magazine as one of the best seven preachers in America, gives readers the tools and understanding they need to make the ancient wisdom of the Bible a dynamic part of their modern lives.This New York Times Bestseller is widely acclaimed for its brilliance, compassion, and relevance. It has also opened a new dialogue on the need for biblical literacy and guidance in today's world.Peter J. Gomes was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1942. He graduated from Bates College and Harvard Divinity School. After teaching and serving as director of freshman studies at Tuskegee Institute, he went to Harvard in 1970 as assistant minister in the Memorial Church. Gomes has been minister in The Memorial Church since 1974, when he was appointed Plummer Professor of Christian Morals at Harvard University."Gomes can't be pigeonholed--this is a reading not from the right or the left but from the living, loving heart of scripture."- Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature.…

Paperback. Condición: Fair. New York Times Bestseller * Finalist for the 2018 National Book Critics Circle Award in Nonfiction * A New York Times Notable Book * Bloomberg Best Book of 2018 * One of Bill Gates's Top Five Books of All Time "Their distinctive contribution to the higher-education debate is to meet safetyism on its own, psychological turf . . . Lukianoff and Haidt tell us that safetyism undermines the freedom of inquiry and speech that are indispensable to universities." --Jonathan Marks, Commentary "The remedies the book outlines should be considered on college campuses, among parents of current and future students, and by anyone longing for a more sane society." --Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Something has been going wrong on many college campuses in the last few years. Speakers are shouted down. Students and professors say they are walking on eggshells and are afraid to speak honestly. Rates of anxiety, depression, and suicide are rising--on campus as well as nationally. How did this happen? First Amendment expert Greg Lukianoff and social psychologist Jonathan Haidt, author of The Anxious Generation, show how the new problems on campus have their origins in three terrible ideas that have become increasingly woven into American childhood and education: What doesn't kill you makes you weaker; always trust your feelings; and life is a battle between good people and evil people. These three Great Untruths contradict basic psychological principles about well-being and ancient wisdom from many cultures.  Embracing these untruths--and the resulting culture of safetyism--interferes with young people's social, emotional, and intellectual development. It makes it harder for them to become autonomous adults who are able to navigate the bumpy road of life. Lukianoff and Haidt investigate the many social trends that have intersected to promote the spread of these untruths. They explore changes in childhood such as the rise of fearful parenting, the decline of unsupervised, child-directed play, and the new world of social media that has engulfed teenagers in the last decade. They examine changes on campus, including the corporatization of universities and the emergence of new ideas about identity and justice. They situate the conflicts on campus within the context of America's rapidly rising political polarization and dysfunction. This is a book for anyone who is confused by what is happening on college campuses today, or has children, or is concerned about the growing inability of Americans to live, work, and cooperate across party lines.…

Hardback. Condición: Good. "Full of wonderful stories of human resilience . . . and easy ways for you to boost not only your own mood but the mood of every person you meet. " -Ken Blanchard, #1 New York Times-bestselling coauthor of The One Minute Manager The media's bias toward stories of conflict, violence, and division is bad for your health. Hal Urban shows how to find the positive and uplifting all around us. What we eat greatly impacts our physical health. Hal Urban says that we can nourish our minds just like we nourish our bodies by choosing what information we consume. Urban explains why, due to neuroscience as much as economics, the media-left, right, and center-focuses mostly on negative stories. And he describes the psychological toll this takes on our mental health. But he's not suggesting we ignore these stories, just that we vary our diets. We can find countless signs of progress and acts of kindness all around the world if we know where to look. And there are positive aspects in our own lives-family, friends, beauty, generosity, and progress-that we take for granted. Offering techniques he road tested as a teacher for thirty-six years, Urban helps readers become a conscious consumer of information, balancing sources like food groups. If, as the late Zig Ziglar put it, "you are what you are . . . because of what has gone into your mind," then it's in our best interest to choose positive, healthy, and uplifting input whenever possible. Urban shows how to do this with open eyes and an open heart. "Blending storytelling and research, humor and deep analysis, Hal Urban provides us an accessible and valuable treasure." -Tal Ben-Shahar, PhD, cofounder of the Happiness Studies Academy. …
