Hope 4 You
Author: Carole Lewis
Publisher: Gospel Light Publications
ISBN: 0830755624
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
What is hope? Where does it come from? How can believers face the future with confidence—not with blind optimism, but deep trust in God’s plans? In Hope 4 You, First Place 4 Health National Director Carole Lewis examines the theme of hope as presented in God’s Word, and illustrates what hope is and is not through the real-life experiences of Carole and a number of her friends in the faith. Carole leads readers on an exploration of Scripture, which identifies the Holy Spirit as the Source of all hope. With this understanding, believers can walk with God (which restores hope), work with God (which renews hope) and wait on God (which revives hope). Carole underscores that hoping is never passive or inactive; it is productive, meaningful and full of purpose. Hope motivates us to take practical steps toward our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual goals.

The Game Boy Encyclopedia
Author: Chris Scullion
Publisher: White Owl
ISBN: 139909680X
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
The Game Boy Encyclopedia is the sixth book in Scottish author and journalist Chris Scullions critically-acclaimed series of video game encyclopedias. There are few video game systems as iconic and important as the Nintendo Game Boy. Released in 1989, the handhelds humble green-tinted display allowed for a low-cost portable console that won over players where it mattered most: the quality of its games. From huge early successes like the iconic Tetris and Super Mario Land to its revival years later with the groundbreaking Pokémon games, the Game Boy stands proudly as one of the greatest gaming systems ever. Its 1998 successor, the Game Boy Color, addressed the one main weak spot in the Game Boys armor and offered full-color games. Combined, nearly 120 million Game Boy and Game Boy Color handhelds were sold worldwide, with both models playing a huge role in so many childhoods (and adulthoods). This book contains every game released in the west for both handhelds: around 580 on the Game Boy and around 560 on the Game Boy Color. With around 1,150 games covered in total, screenshots and trivia factoids for every single title and a light-hearted writing style designed for an informative but entertaining read, The Game Boy Encyclopedia is the definitive guide to a legendary gaming platform.

Social Agency
Author: Wojciech W. Gasparski
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 135129282X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 474
Book Description
Praxiology deals with doing and working from the point of view of effectiveness. It has three components: analysis of concepts involving purposive actions; critique of models of action from the viewpoint of efficiency; and normative advisory aspects in recommendations for increasing human efficiency. This fourth volume of the Praxiology series is devoted to the very special topic of social agency. It focuses on two important praxiological concepts: rationality and preparation as preconditions for human action to be effective and efficient. The question of efficiency was raised by Anatol Rapoport over three decades ago in his lecture to the audience at the Praxiological Seminar in Warsaw in 1961. Social Agency begins with an article written by this same famous scholar on the topic of decision theory, "Social Dilemmas: A Historical Overview." Social dilemmas is the subject of the first part of this volume, a question related to studies on human action guided by two types of rationality: individual and collective rationality. The intersection of the two, in which individuals meet collectives, creates the situation in which social agency emerges, generating dilemmatic circumstances for the actors involved. The articles collected in the second part explore praxiological dimensions of education aimed toward the knowledge society, because of knowledge possessed and produced by educated persons. Chapters and contributors to volume 4 include: "Five Questions on the Research on Social Dilemmas" by Marek K. Mlicki; "Psychological Processes Underlying Cooperation in Social Dilemmas" by Paul A. M. Van Lange and David M. Messick; "Designing a System for Design Learning: Designers and/or Learners?" by Arne Collen; "Creating an Evolutionary Image of New Systems of Learning and Human Development" by Janet A. Khan; and "A Study Program Design in Retrospect" by Stig C. Holmberg. Social Agency continues the trend of original research done in a little-known, but important area. Social scientists, policymakers, and educators will benefit from this work.
