Book Description
The Freedom Handbook is a "how-to" guide to self-discovery. Freedom comes when you know who you are - and can choose to be who you are. You will learn the steps to freedom: identify the imperatives and prohibitions that control and limit you, understand how to use power, develop the courage to be true to yourself, and create relationships that will make you happy. Dr. Joette Warren is a practicing New York City-based, Licensed Psychologist with 45 years of experience who has seen hundreds of patients over the years. She is a highly interactive therapist, guiding exploration within each session, challenging the restrictive beliefs that the client has held since childhood, and offering direction for their behavior outside their sessions. Oprah Winfrey's book, "What I Know For Sure," is a personal narrative of her journey to freedom by honoring her truth. Similarly, The Freedom Handbook includes many personal narratives, written both by the author and by her patients. Some of the stories describe how the writers recognized the limitations on their freedom. Other stories demonstrate how they were able to overcome those limitations and choose freedom.
The Oxford Handbook of Freedom
Author: David Schmidtz
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199989435
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 545
Book Description
We speak of being 'free' to speak our minds, free to go to college, free to move about; we can be cancer-free, debt-free, worry-free, or free from doubt. The concept of freedom (and relatedly the notion of liberty) is ubiquitous but not everyone agrees what the term means, and the philosophical analysis of freedom that has grown over the last two decades has revealed it to be a complex notion whose meaning is dependent on the context. The Oxford Handbook of Freedom will crystallize this work and craft the first wide-ranging analysis of freedom in all its dimensions: legal, cultural, religious, economic, political, and psychological. This volume includes 28 new essays by well regarded philosophers, as well some historians and political theorists, in order to reflect the breadth of the topic. This handbook covers both current scholarship as well as historical trends, with an overall eye to how current ideas on freedom developed. The volume is divided into six sections: conceptual frames (framing the overall debates about freedom), historical frames (freedom in key historical periods, from the ancients onward), institutional frames (freedom and the law), cultural frames (mutual expectations on our 'right' to be free), economic frames (freedom and the market), and lastly psychological frames (free will in philosophy and psychology).

Routledge Handbook of Freedom of Religion or Belief
Author: Silvio Ferrari
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351401955
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 467
Book Description
Freedom of religion is an issue of universal interest and scope. However, in the last two centuries at least, the philosophical, religious and legal terms of the question have been largely defined in the West. In an increasingly global world, widening our knowledge of this right’s roots in different cultural and legal systems becomes a priority. This Handbook seeks to attain this goal through a better understanding of the historical roots and expressions of the right to freedom of religion on the one hand and, on the other, of its theological background in different religious traditions. History and theology provide the setting for the analysis of the politics of freedom of religion, that is, how this right is used in the context of the dialogue/confrontation between countries placed in different cultural regions of the world, and of the legal strategies and tools that have been developed and are employed to protect and foster the right to freedom of religion. Behind these legal and political strategies, there is an ongoing debate about the nature of this right, whose main features are explored in the final section. Global, historical and interdisciplinary in approach, this book studies the new relevance of freedom of religion worldwide and develops suitable categories to analyze and understand the role that freedom of religion can play in managing religious and cultural diversity in our societies. Authored by experts, through the contributions collected in these chapters, scholars and students will be able to broaden and deepen their knowledge of the right to freedom of religion and to develop the ability to go beyond the borders of the different cultural environments in which this right took shape and developed.
