Stumbling on Happiness
Author: Daniel Gilbert
Publisher: Vintage Canada
ISBN: 0307371360
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
A smart and funny book by a prominent Harvard psychologist, which uses groundbreaking research and (often hilarious) anecdotes to show us why we’re so lousy at predicting what will make us happy – and what we can do about it. Most of us spend our lives steering ourselves toward the best of all possible futures, only to find that tomorrow rarely turns out as we had expected. Why? As Harvard psychologist Daniel Gilbert explains, when people try to imagine what the future will hold, they make some basic and consistent mistakes. Just as memory plays tricks on us when we try to look backward in time, so does imagination play tricks when we try to look forward. Using cutting-edge research, much of it original, Gilbert shakes, cajoles, persuades, tricks and jokes us into accepting the fact that happiness is not really what or where we thought it was. Among the unexpected questions he poses: Why are conjoined twins no less happy than the general population? When you go out to eat, is it better to order your favourite dish every time, or to try something new? If Ingrid Bergman hadn’t gotten on the plane at the end of Casablanca, would she and Bogey have been better off? Smart, witty, accessible and laugh-out-loud funny, Stumbling on Happiness brilliantly describes all that science has to tell us about the uniquely human ability to envision the future, and how likely we are to enjoy it when we get there.

Book Description
Joe's mind raced. The clinic was in a neighboring county, and he'd dressed down. He'd worn jeans, dirty tennis shoes, and the torn denim jacket he used for work in the parish garden. He'd even glued on a fake mustache, the one that he had bought for last year's Halloween party when he'd gone as Pancho Villa ... Now he was booking it down a busy avenue like a thief after a heist. He'd run seven blocks and had just turned right toward the river and his Honda Civic. He'd have to slow down. He had to be careful. He tugged off the fake moustache and then threw it in the gutter. Joe hadn't wanted to park near the clinic, so he'd parked near the hospital. It was part of his plan. If any parishioners saw him, they'd think he was visiting the sick or tending to an emergency. God, Joe wished that were true. The truth was he was now one of the sick. Father Joe Tierney was HIV positive.

Book Description
Four women, one weekend, and their lives will never be the same. Stephanie London thought she'd heard from God when she moved to Hope Springs, N.C. But a tragedy in that small town left her soul desolate. Now her husband's inattentiveness has pushed her over the edge. Bereft of hope, she travels home to St. Louis as a women's ministry conference kicks off. Though less than enthused to attend, new friendships offer strength and light. But what happens when the weekend ends and real life begins again? Treva Langston grieves still the loss of her husband of twenty-two years. Now, two years later, her heart is breaking again as her oldest daughter's travails come to light. Traveling from DC to St. Louis for a women's conference seems the last thing she should do, given the circumstances. But in St. Louis her path crosses with someone new--and her world turns upside down. Will it only lead to more heartbreak? Jillian Mason can't wait to attend the Living Word women's conference. She's done their Bible studies for years and expects God to show up in an amazing way. But the weekend delivers something unexpected--a discovery about her husband. As the state of her marriage hangs in the balance, Jillian is suddenly anxious about returning home. Faith Langston has always been a girl after God's heart. She loves Living Word studies and registered early for the conference. But at the end of her college sophomore year, she finds herself in circumstances she never imagined--with a heart that has strayed from God. She makes it to St. Louis nonetheless, with her boyfriend in tow--but how will she find her way back to God? Four women in different seasons of life converge at a women's conference--with a theme that charges them to run "in hot pursuit" for Christ. But how do they run when challenges seem insurmountable? And can they help one another navigate the difficult terrain? "The author has a gift for bringing God's love and light into even the darkest situation." --Romantic Times (The Color of Hope)

Undisciplining Dance in Nine Movements and Eight Stumbles
Author: Carol Brown
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527522385
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
If much of what we teach and come to know from within the disciplinary regime of Dance Studies is founded on a certain kind of mastery, what scope is there to challenge, criticize and undo this knowledge from within the academy, as well as through productive encounters with its margins? This volume contributes to a growing discourse on the potential of dance and dancers to affect change, politics and situational awareness, as well as to traverse disciplinary boundaries. It ‘undisciplines’ academic thinking through its organisation into ‘movements’ and ‘stumbles’, reinforcing its theme through its structure as well as its content, addressing contemporary dance and performance practices and pedagogies from a range of research perspectives and registers. Turbulent and vertiginous events on the world stage necessitate new ways of thinking and acting. This book makes strides towards a new kind of research which creates alternative modes for perceiving, experiencing and making. Through writings and images, its contributions offer different perspectives on how to rethink disciplinarity through choreographic practices, somatics, a reimagining of dance techniques, indigenous ontologies, choreopolitics, critical dance pedagogies and visual performance languages.

Stumbling Blocks Before the Blind
Author: Edward Wheatley
Publisher: University of Michigan Press
ISBN: 0472117203
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 299
Book Description
"Bold, deeply learned, and important, offering a provocative thesis that is worked out through legal and archival materials and in subtle and original readings of literary texts. Absolutely new in content and significantly innovative in methodology and argument, Stumbling Blocks Before the Blind offers a cultural geography of medieval blindness that invites us to be more discriminating about how we think of geographies of disability today." ---Christopher Baswell, Columbia University "A challenging, interesting, and timely book that is also very well written . . . Wheatley has researched and brought together a leitmotiv that I never would have guessed was so pervasive, so intriguing, so worthy of a book." ---Jody Enders, University of California, Santa Barbara Stumbling Blocks Before the Blind presents the first comprehensive exploration of a disability in the Middle Ages, drawing on the literature, history, art history, and religious discourse of England and France. It relates current theories of disability to the cultural and institutional constructions of blindness in the eleventh through fifteenth centuries, examining the surprising differences in the treatment of blind people and the responses to blindness in these two countries. The book shows that pernicious attitudes about blindness were partially offset by innovations and ameliorations---social; literary; and, to an extent, medical---that began to foster a fuller understanding and acceptance of blindness. A number of practices and institutions in France, both positive and negative---blinding as punishment, the foundation of hospices for the blind, and some medical treatment---resulted in not only attitudes that commodified human sight but also inhumane satire against the blind in French literature, both secular and religious. Anglo-Saxon and later medieval England differed markedly in all three of these areas, and the less prominent position of blind people in society resulted in noticeably fewer cruel representations in literature. This book will interest students of literature, history, art history, and religion because it will provide clear contexts for considering any medieval artifact relating to blindness---a literary text, a historical document, a theological treatise, or a work of art. For some readers, the book will serve as an introduction to the field of disability studies, an area of increasing interest both within and outside of the academy. Edward Wheatley is Surtz Professor of Medieval Literature at Loyola University, Chicago.
