Book Description
Why is revenge such a pervasive and destructive problem? How can we create a future in which revenge is less common and forgiveness is more common? Psychologist Michael McCullough argues that the key to a more forgiving, less vengeful world is to understand the evolutionary forces that gave rise to these intimately human instincts and the social forces that activate them in human minds today. Drawing on exciting breakthroughs from the social and biological sciences, McCullough dispenses surprising and practical advice for making the world a more forgiving place. Michael E. McCullough (Miami, Florida), an internationally recognized expert on forgiveness and revenge, is a professor of psychology at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, where he directs the Laboratory for Social and Clinical Psychology.

The Sun Neither Rises nor Sets
Author: Kim LM Longstreet
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 1039170439
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
When Kim Longstreet was six years old, she had a conversation with God. She had already experienced years of tragedy and abuse at that young age, and she would continue to until she was an adult. She was comforted by the words she heard from God that day: “trust me and you will find out what it is all for.” She knew then that she had a purpose and that she would one day bring inspiration to others who were struggling. Years later, on January 3, 2004, her thirty-sixth birthday, she suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to write an urge she had been feeling for a long time. She put pen to paper and began to craft what she called “Life’s Holy Rhymes,” a collection of teachings about finding your soul and trusting a higher power. After a full year, she had finished the book. However, the manuscript sat on a shelf until 2022, when another clear message came to her: it was finally time to publish. This book comes directly from Kim’s connection to her higher power and is for truth-seekers, spiritual seekers, and atheists alike. There is something for everyone in this wise and heart-filled collection, which will give hope and encouragement to people at this challenging time in our world.

The Revenge of Gaia
Author: James Lovelock
Publisher: Basic Books
ISBN: 0465008666
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
In The Revenge of Gaia , bestselling author James Lovelock- father of climate studies and originator of the influential Gaia theory which views the entire earth as a living meta-organism-provides a definitive look at our imminent global crisis. In this disturbing new book, Lovelock guides us toward a hard reality: soon, we may not be able to alter the oncoming climate crisis. Lovelock's influential Gaia theory, one of the building blocks of modern climate science, conceives of the Earth, including the atmosphere, oceans, biosphere and upper layers of rock, as a single living super-organism, regulating its internal environment much as an animal regulates its body temperature and chemical balance. But now, says Lovelock, that organism is sick. It is running a fever born of the combination of a sun whose intensity is slowly growing over millions of years, and an atmosphere whose greenhouse gases have recently spiked due to human activity. Earth will adjust to these stresses, but on time scales measured in the hundreds of millennia. It is already too late, Lovelock says, to prevent the global climate from "flipping" into an entirely new equilibrium state that will leave the tropics uninhabitable, and force migration to the poles. The Revenge of Gaia explains the stress the planetary system is under and how humans are contributing to it, what the consequences will be, and what humanity must do to rescue itself.
