Seeking the Compassionate Life: The Moral Crisis for Psychotherapy and Society (Psychology, Religion, and Spirituality)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 51.12 $Morality is a subject most ignored and little understood by modern psychological investigation. Why a person acts honorably, or heinously, is one of the most puzzling and least answered questions regarding human behavior. Here the authors posit that despite the fact that hatred and arrogance continually battle compassion and decency as humanity's driving force, people continue to develop altruism, empathy, and concern for others. Goldberg and Crespo demonstrate seven factors crucial to achieving a compassionate life.Goldberg and Crespo take us inside their treatment rooms, through history, across cultures and into their own personal worlds-at-large to meet clients and acquaintances including a would-be rapist, a virtuous stalker, an adulterous minister, and a young boy with little more than a matchbook and some pride to call his own. Together, the stories of these clients and historical figures including Nazis at Nuremberg reflect a vital theme: Virtuous behavior should not be a mystery. Morality is a subject most ignored and little understood by modern psychological investigation. Why a person acts honorably or heinously is one of the most puzzling and least answered questions regarding human behavior. The authors demonstrate that although within every human breast hatred and arrogance battle compassion and decency as a driving force, people do indeed develop altruism, empathy, and concern for others. Goldberg and Crespo outline seven crucial factors in the achievement of a compassionate life.This book addresses two audiences. First, it questions modern psychological scientists who have ignored the importance of compassion, virtue, and morality, focusing instead on contrived experimental situations rather than pursuing investigations in―as part of―the actual world in which we live. Yet it is also written for all people concerned with the moral crisis in comtemporary society, and all people seeking personal and social solutions to deal with this crisis.

Dante and Islam (Dante's World: Historicizing Literary Cultures of the Due and Trecento)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 2.64 $Dante put Muhammad in one of the lowest circles of Hell. At the same time, the medieval Christian poet placed several Islamic philosophers much more honorably in Limbo. Furthermore, it has long been suggested that for much of the basic framework of the Divine Comedy Dante was indebted to apocryphal traditions about a “night journey” taken by Muhammad.Dante scholars have increasingly returned to the question of Islam to explore the often surprising encounters among religious traditions that the Middle Ages afforded. This collection of essays works through what was known of the Qur’an and of Islamic philosophy and science in Dante’s day and explores the bases for Dante’s images of Muhammad and Ali. It further compels us to look at key instances of engagement among Muslims, Jews, and Christians.

The Truth Behind Going Postal: Surviving the Torture in the United States Postal Service
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 30.69 $Over six hundred thousand people work for the US Postal Service. Many are among the nine million Vietnam-era veterans who returned to a nation indifferent, or even openly hostile, to their experiences. Garland D. Lewis Sr. was one of these veterans. After being honorably discharged from the Navy, he returned to Denver, Colorado, proud of his service. It appeared that no one else was until he was offered a position with the USPS in 1980. He found that, despite a toxic culture and adverse conditions, it was one of the few organizations offering a middle-class lifestyle to African Americans and a chance at the American dream for veterans. His plan was to put the time in, stay focused on his duties, and retire. He soon realized how unrealistic demands and abusive management practices could push employees to their limits, leading to tragedy. As he examines the incidents that led to the coining of the phrase “going postal,” he doesn’t focus on the who of the situation but the why. Why so many mental breakdowns in the USPS? What kind of culture fostered frustration and anger? Lewis’s look at “going postal” is an examination of the USPS and American culture.

Thirty Years from Home: A Seaman's View of the War of 1812
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 34.47 $Suppose you had a sailor who served honorably and well in two different navies-that were on opposite sides of the same war-and then wrote a book about it? Samuel Leech was once a young sailor in the Royal Navy. That's not terribly extraordinary, until you add... That he served aboard the HMS Macedonian when she fought, and was captured by, the USS United States; and was made an American prisoner of war. That he then joined the U.S. Navy and was aboard the USS Syren when she fought, and was captured by, HMS Medway; and he was made a British prisoner of war. And finally, that he was the ONLY seamen to write an account of his experiences with both navies, on opposite sides, in the War of 1812! But it doesn't stop there. Leech was also an astute observer. His vivid description of the carnage aboard the Macedonian in her encounter with the United States is a classic; and his comparison of the way seamen were treated by both navies is penetrating. Indeed, those insights have become the source of many historian's views that this disparity in treatment was one of the main reasons that American ships were so successful during the War of 1812. But above all, Leech writes with a human touch that draws you into his world. When you are finished reading, you literally feel like you were there with him and that you somehow know the man. It is one of the most extraordinary books in all of nautical literature, now brought back into print by Fireship Press.

At the Crossroads of Justice : My Lai and Son Thang-american Atrocities in Vietnam
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 20.13 $Vietnam is remembered as the war that divided a nation and scarred a generation. While the vast majority of American personnel in Vietnam served honorably, a few highly publicized atrocities tarnished the reputation of the military. In At the Crossroads of Justice: My Lai and Son Thang-American Atrocities in Vietnam, author Paul J. Noto analyzes two of those incidents-My Lai and Son Thang-against the backdrop of a flawed military justice system and an arrogant and inept civilian and military leadership that failed to articulate a coherent military strategy to win the war. Noto shows that failure of leadership contributed to problems of command discipline, racial tension, drug abuse, and general disregard for military protocol. His study examines these issues and describes how ordinary American boys became cold-blooded killers seemingly overnight, what combination of factors led to these tragic events, and how the military can prevent them from happening in future conflicts. By studying these crimes and the judicial process that followed, Noto provides an insightful analysis of the related issues and how they have impacted military training to the present day.

The Art of War: The Denma Translation (Shambhala Library)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 31.11 $Conflict is an inevitable part of life, according to this ancient Chinese classic of strategy, but everything necessary to deal with conflict wisely, honorably, victoriously, is right before us at all times. The key to skillful action in any situation is in knowing those things that make up the environment and then arranging them so that their power becomes available to us. It is not necessary to change the nature of things to come to victory. Crucial to Sun Tzu's vision is knowledge—especially self-knowledge—and a view of the whole that seeks to bring the conflicting views around to a vision of the larger perspective. This translation preserves the enigmatic quality of the original text, while the accompanying line-by-line commentary and essay reveal the full implications of Sun Tzu's teachings and how they can be applied practically to a broader spectrum of situations. The Shambhala Library is a series of exquisitely designed and produced cloth editions of the world's spiritual and literary classics, both ancient and modern. Perfect for collecting or as gifts, each volume features a sewn binding, decorative endsheets, and a ribbon marker—a delightful-to-hold 4 ¼ x 6 ¾ trim size.
