Peace in the Age of Chaos
Author: Steve Killelea
Publisher: Hardie Grant Publishing
ISBN: 1743587155
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
While COVID-19 is reshaping our lives, this must-read book for 2021 provides some of the answers to our most pressing global challenges. Unless the world is basically peaceful, we will never get the trust, cooperation and inclusiveness to solve these issues, yet what creates peace is poorly understood. Working on an aid program in one of the most violent places in the world, North East Kivu in the DR Congo, philanthropist and business leader Steve Killelea asked himself, ‘What are the most peaceful nations?’ Unable to find an answer, he created the world’s leading measure of peace, the Global Peace Index, which receives over 16 billion media impressions annually and has become the definitive go to index for heads of state. Steve Killelea then went on to establish world-renowned think tank, the Institute for Economics and Peace. Today its work is used by organisations such as the World Bank, United Nations and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and taught in thousands of university courses around the world. Peace in the Age of Chaos tells of Steve’s personal journey to measure and understand peace. It explores the practical application of his work, which is gathering momentum at a rapid pace. In this time when we are faced with environmental, social and economic challenges, this book shows us a way forward where Positive Peace, described as creating the optimal environment for human potential to flourish, can lead to a paradigm shift in the ways societies can be managed, making them more resilient and better capable of adapting to their changing environments.

Happy Chaos
Author: Soleil Moon Frye
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101543523
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
From Punky to parenting, Soleil Moon Frye shares insightful, realistic, in-the-trenches parenting advice, inspiration, and fun. Enthusiastic, spunky, and positive, Punky Brewster was the quintessential eighties kid. Nearly thirty years later, Soleil Moon Frye-the adorable girl who played her on TV-is all grown up. Now she's a married mom of two, an entrepreneur who parlayed her successful kids' clothing line into a partnership with Target, and a social media whiz with millions of followers. Many of the same girls who watched Soleil on television are now grown up with children of their own, too, and they look to her as a go-to source for realistic, in-the-trenches parenting advice, inspiration, and fun. Happy Chaos invites those women into Soleil's world, and makes them revel in the chaos of their own lives, too. Soleil believes that "happy chaos" is the sign of a family operating at its best-when parents accept that they'll make mistakes, that there will be messes, tears and skinned knees. She learned to love a jumbled life during her own childhood, when her own mom created an atmosphere that was thoroughly unconventional. Their house in Los Angeles was a haven for many young stars of Soleil's generation, often far from home and looking for a safe place to hang out. In this book, she shows how her happy but chaotic childhood informed her parenting: Each chapter begins with a telling reminiscence before moving into insightful advice and fun stories about life with her husband and two adorable daughters.

Book Description
"I will crawl over broken glass for you. I'll walk through fire. I'll do anything for you." "Even get on your knees and beg?" "Yes. Even get on my knees and beg." "Wanna prove that?" she says, playfully. "I thought I just did." She shakes her head. "That wasn't begging. That was asking nicely." Jemima What do you do when you're looking for Mr. Reliable, but you've fallen for Mr. Flirt? You accept it can never be... that's what you do. Except Oliver's staring at my lips, telling me he wants to kiss them - well, me - until I'm begging him to stop. I've never begged for anything, and even though I know I might regret this... I can't say 'no'. Oliver What do you do when just saying, "Hello," to the woman you love feels like a major achievement? You learn to live with a broken heart... that's what you do. Except she's biting on her bottom lip, looking sexier than should be legal, and that's more than I can take. I have to tell her how I feel... And hope I don't regret it... This is a dual POV story with graphic sex scenes, adult language, and a fun-loving hero, who knows exactly what he wants from love. Making your Peace is the sixth and final book in the Never Give Up series, but can be read as a stand-alone story with no cliff-hanger, and a guaranteed HEA. Never Give Up series: 1. Taming the Storm 2. Chasing the Dream 3. Looking for Love 4. Finding your Destiny 5. Faking the Future 6. Making your Peace
