Beyond Good Intentions
Author: Tori Hogan
Publisher: Seal Press
ISBN: 1580054641
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Young and idealistic, Tori Hogan travels to Kenya as an intern for Save the Children, intent upon doing her part to improve the lives of refugees. But the cynicism of a young African boy changes Tori’s life and sets her on a course to reconsider everything she thought she knew about helping those in need. Years later, Tori returns to Africa and embarks on a journey through Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda, searching for the truth about what does and does not work in international aid. While there are glimmers of hope along the way, she discovers an aid industry mired in waste, ineffective solutions imposed by well-intentioned outsiders, and humanitarian efforts that do more harm than good. Beyond Good Intentions is both a moving story of one woman’s personal journey and an urgent call to arms to change the way we offer aid overseas. Tori’s candid reflections on international aid shine a light on our ability to improve the lives of others, often in ways we would never expect.

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 320
Book Description
"This collection provides us with that rarest of objects: a genuinely new book on Wagner. Virtually every page offers fresh perspectives, some of them mined from the most unlikely of sources; indeed, the sheer eclecticism of the book, its willingness to range widely and irreverently through both popular and elite culture, is one of its greatest strengths."—Roger Parker, author of Remaking the Song: Operatic Visions and Revisions from Handel to Berio "John Deathridge is one of the most authoritative, widely-regarded Wagner scholars around in any language. Few can match his command of scholarship and primary sources, and no one else knows how to put them to such clever, provocative uses. In addition, Deathridge enjoys an impressive range of critical, historical, and literary reference. The writing is consistently lively and engaging. The collection will provide a welcome change of diet for those tired of the usual Wagnerian fare. This is a welcome contribution, indeed."—Thomas Grey, author of Wagner's Musical Prose: Texts and Contexts

Beyond Good and Evil
Author: Friedrich Nietzsche
Publisher: LP
ISBN: 3989886142
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
A new translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1886 Jenseits von Gut und Böse, or in English "Beyond Good & Evil".This unique edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 7 The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from LP. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual "Hauptwerke" or complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. Beyond Good and Evil represents the apotheosis of Nietzsche’s Perspectivism, 'Will-to-Power' and anti-modern moral metaphysics. He argues for a shift to a moral system (which he refers to as an "immorality" in an Apollonian-Dionysian sense) based on the effect of an action on the living being, not based on intention nor any value determined by judgments rooted in history. Jenseits is his sharpest polemic against Christianity and the corresponding Meta-ethics (albeit, his Anti-Christianity exists primarily as Anti-Semitism as he was fond of Social Darwinism). This new "philosophy of immorality" is bound to 'Perspektivismus' and the Will-to-Power/ Wille zur Macht- an idea he adopted and modified from Schopenhauer- which refers to the instinctual knowing and cyclical self-renewal of the individual.
