Book Description
This book of poetry was written during the Pandemic of COVID-19, as the frost fell on the old growth trees of Clayoquot Sound on the West Coast of Vancouver Island Canada in the latter part of 2020. It was Pandemia. Under emergency government direction, we stayed inside in confusion with a steady diet of fear. As an antidote to the uncertainty, this book provides a remedy in thought and perception through a different kind of inspired poetry. Through years of confusion and endless wondering about the nature and purpose of life, we come full circle to recall our true nature. That is the experience of life. Whether we realize it or not, we are at one with our creator. Not of the body but of the spirit. We were created by a loving God, and now, more than ever, it is time to trust Him.

Behind the Mask
Author: Tony Emmett
Publisher: HSRC Press
ISBN: 9780796919588
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This book argues for a proactive approach that focuses on preventing acts of crime and violence before they occur rather than the punishment of perpetrators after the fact. It sees crime as embedded in the social structure, in the disintegration of families and communities, in the breakdown of authority and social trust, and in the inequalities of society that breed hostility and disempowerment. This theme of social disintegration is linked to recent developments in the field of social capital, and in particular to recent empirical findings that link violence with economic inequality and the breakdown of social cohesion. The book presents a number of strategically selected case studies of crime and injury prevention projects in South Africa, including case studies of community responses to crime.
