Reflections in a Stream
Author: Edna Jones
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973612135
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Judith Early came to Balsam Ridge, as a privileged only child of affluent Boston parents to locate the love of her life. A decade has passed transforming her from a pampered young woman to that of a loving wife, a loyal friend, and a competent nurse with her husband Dr. Jim Bradley. The journey from seeing herself as a short-term visitor to putting down deep roots of contentment in this isolated, mountain community was not without struggle. Now, facing one of those defining moments, without warning Judiths contented life is tragically uprooted overnight. Like the mountain streams when encountering those unmovable boulders, she must now find a new course in moving forward. Where will she go? What will she do? There is nothing left. It would seem even God has abandoned her.

Book Description
Ty Karos is a young doctor at a New York City hospital. While treating a dying patient, he is exposed to hepatitis C, a life-threatening virus which causes liver damage. The event triggers anxious, hopeless thoughts as Ty struggles with the premise of his own mortality. His Epicurean beliefs and principles, which he has strictly adhered to and drawn strength from over the years, are challenged by this new obstacle, as he leans on his mentor Dr. Hobbes for guidance. Ty reasons that something, or rather someone, is missing from his life- Miranda, a long lost love he met in the Cycladic islands a decade earlier. Hoping she might somehow aid his recovery, he locates her and the two re-unite. Throughout his spiritual journey, Ty questions how best to live, the value of love, and what follows death. In the end, it is these enduring experiences in Ty's troubled life which emerge as his principal reflections in the stream.

Habit of Rivers
Author: Ted Leeson
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 1461749093
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Originally published in 1994, this book was a fly-fishing phenomenon in the way Howell Raines’s Fly Fishing Through the Mid-Life Crisis was. Taking his fishing hobby to near metaphysical levels, Ted Leeson tells about his passions: rivers, trout, and fly fishing. With wry humor and rare insight, he explores questions that engage most fishermen: What is it about rivers that draws us so irresistibly, and why does fly fishing seem such an aptly suited response? Above all, The Habit of Rivers is about ways of seeing the wonderfully textured world that emanates from a river.

Three Streams
Author: P. J. Ivanhoe
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190492015
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Recent interest in Confucianism has a tendency to suffer from essentialism and idealism, manifested in a variety of ways. One example is to think of Confucianism in terms of the views attributed to one representative of the tradition, such as Kongzi (Confucius) (551-479 BCE) or Mengzi (Mencius) (372 - 289 BCE) or one school or strand of the tradition, most often the strand or tradition associated with Mengzi or, in the later tradition, that formed around the commentaries and interpretation of Zhu Xi (1130-1200). Another such tendency is to think of Confucianism in terms of its manifestations in only one country; this is almost always China for the obvious reasons that China is one of the most powerful and influential states in the world today. A third tendency is to present Confucianism in terms of only one period or moment in the tradition; for example, among ethical and political philosophers, pre-Qin Confucianism--usually taken to be the writings attributed to Kongzi, Mengzi, and, if we are lucky, Xunzi (479-221 BCE)--often is taken as "Confucianism." These and other forms of essentialism and idealism have led to a widespread and deeply entrenched impression that Confucianism is thoroughly homogenous and monolithic (these often are "facts" mustered to support the purportedly oppressive, authoritarian, and constricted nature of the tradition); such impressions can be found throughout East Asia and dominate in the West. This is quite deplorable for it gives us no genuine sense of the creatively rich, philosophically powerful, highly variegated, and still very much open-ended nature of the Confucian tradition. This volume addresses this misconstrual and misrepresentation of Confucianism by presenting a philosophically critical account of different Confucian thinkers and schools, across place (China, Korea, and Japan) and time (the 10th to 19th centuries).
