Confidence when it Counts: Rise Above Self-Criticism to Make your Mark
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 29.68 $Confidence is a greater predictor than competence of a woman’s career success and earnings. Many women "know in their mind" they are great at what they do and have plenty of confidence when life is in a flow - but don't 'feel it in their bones’ causing hesitation and self criticism. Written by a Harvard Medical School trained business psychologist, this book goes beyond well-meaning but vague encouragements such as ‘believe in yourself girlfriend,’ and gives you specific, proven, and actionable TOOLS to have confidence in the moments that count: how to not react or take it personally when facing someone with strong energy; how to speak up when afraid of judgment or frustrated your words will be a waste of breath; how to get out of the negative spiral of criticism; how to ask for salary or fees or resources; how to say no when you’ve always said ‘yes’; how to get your ‘emotional oxygen’ from within instead of trying to be validated by that limited boss or business partner. You’ll learn your specific Confidence Type - the secret to understanding when you show up confident, and when you don't - and why. Dr. Melnick takes the reader through practical exercises she can do to quickly rise above her own self criticisms and others' bias to make her mark. With a unique and fresh perspective, this book helps women distinguish whether not speaking up or 'going for it' stems from their own self doubt vs frustration and resignation in the face of chronic gender bias - and gives the instruction manual to 'get out of their own way' and 'get others out of their way' so they can make the contribution they were put here to make. This is a book for women who want to have more influence and advance in their organization, for business owners and entrepreneurs who want to ‘put themselves out there’ to earn more, and for those who are fine in their professional lives but want to uplift their personal relationships by being more confident.

Aristotle on Self-Motion. The Criticism of Plato in De Anima and Physics VIII (Philosophical Studies in Ancient Thought (PSAT); vol. 01).
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 58.84 $463 S. Neuwertiges Ex. / Fine Copy // What is Aristotle's considered view of animal self-motion? According to several scholars, Aristotle ends up rejecting this very notion as a result of his criticism of Plato's theory of a self-moving soul. Contrary to this still widespread assumption, the present study argues that his critical engagement with Plato is not confined to negative results, but achieves largely positive outcomes, which add up to a rich and nuanced picture of self-motion. Ferro makes his case by offering a novel reading of a handful of controversial passages from De Anima (I 34; III 910) and Physics VIII, where Aristotle reacts to three aspects of Plato's theory of self-motion: the claim that soul itself is a self-mover (and therefore a proper subject of motion), the assumption that self-movers enjoy strong causal autonomy, and the link between motion, desire and soul partition. Through a careful reading of the relevant passages, which does justice to their proper context and significance, Ferro shows that Aristotle's critical re-appropriation of self-motion results in a largely coherent doctrine with major repercussions for Aristotelian psychology and philosophy of nature.

Encountering Religion: Responsibility and Criticism After Secularism (Insurrections: Critical Studies in Religion, Politics, and Culture)
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 2.15 $Tyler Roberts encourages scholars to abandon rigid conceptual oppositions between "secular" and "religious" to better understand how human beings actively and thoughtfully engage with their worlds and make meaning. The artificial distinction between a self-conscious and critical "academic study of religion" and an ideological and authoritarian "religion," he argues, only obscures the phenomenon. Instead, Roberts calls on intellectuals to approach the field as a site of "encounter" and "response," illuminating the agency, creativity, and critical awareness of religious actors. To respond to religion is to ask what religious behaviors and representations mean to us in our individual worlds, and scholars must confront questions of possibility and becoming that arise from testing their beliefs, imperatives, and practices. Roberts refers to the work of Hent de Vries, Eric Santner, and Stanley Cavell, each of whom exemplifies encounter and response in their writings as they traverse philosophy and religion to expose secular thinking to religious thought and practice. This approach highlights the resources religious discourse can offer to a fundamental reorientation of critical thought. In humanistic criticism after secularism, the lines separating the creative, the pious, and the critical themselves become the subject of question and experimentation.

Rhetorical Criticism: Exploration and Practice
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 74.09 $Rhetorical critics suggest how to use symbols more effectively, how to communicate in more self-reflective ways, and how to construct messages that best accomplish intended goals. Familiarity with the processes of rhetorical criticism contributes to more effective communication with our friends and families, in the decoration of our homes and offices, in the choices we make about our dress, and in our efforts to present our ideas at school or at work.Knowledge of the operation of rhetoric improves our skills as audience members for messages. When we understand the various options available to rhetors in the construction of messages and how they function together to create the effects they produce, we are able to question the choices others make in the construction of acts and artifacts. We are less inclined to accept existing rhetorical practices and to respond uncritically to the messages we encounter. As a result, we become more engaged and active participants in shaping the nature of the worlds in which we live.

Natural Reason and Natural Law : An Assessment of the Straussian Criticisms of Thomas Aquinas
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 35.41 $Natural law, according to Thomas Aquinas, has its foundation in the evidence and operation of natural, human reason. Its primary precepts are self-evident. Awareness of these precepts does not presuppose knowledge of, or even belief in, the existence of God. The most interesting criticisms of Thomas Aquinas’s natural-law teaching in modern times have been advanced by the political philosopher Leo Strauss and his followers. The purpose of this book is to show that these criticisms are based on misunderstandings and that they are inconclusive at best. Thomas Aquinas’s natural-law teaching is fully rational. It is accessible to man as man.

Higher Gossip: Essays and Criticism
Vendor: Abebooks.com Price: 39.34 $Here is the collection of nonfiction pieces that John Updike was compiling when he died in January 2009. It opens with a self-portrait of the writer in winter, a Prospero who, though he fears his most dazzling performances are behind him, reveals himself in every sentence to be in deep conversation with the sources of his magic. It concludes with a moving meditation on a world without religion, without art, and on the difficulties of faith in a disbelieving age. In between are pieces on Peanuts, Mars, and the songs of Cole Porter, a pageant of scenes from early Massachusetts, and a good deal of Updikean table talk. At the heart of the volume are dozens of book reviews from The New Yorker and illustrated art writings from The New York Review of Books. Updike’s criticism is gossip of the highest sort. We will not hear the likes of it again.
