Mastering Self
Author: Donald G. Hanna
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664259074
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 365
Book Description
Mastering Self is a worthy goal in a culture preoccupied with self. It is a journey that consists of warnings to heed, pitfalls to avoid, hazards to shun, detours to seek, options to assess, precautions to take, opportunities to embrace, and lessons to learn. This journey requires conviction—purpose. Many adults lack the courage of conviction because they have no conviction: no colors to nail to their mast. Conviction has formed and fashioned this book in the context of 120 white papers: essays to describe issues, ideas, and ideals that intersect to inform, instruct, interpret, and inspire in the lifelong journey of mastering self. The human condition, influenced by culture and politics, has a propensity to ignore or reject the lessons of history, practical philosophy, and basic theology. It replaces timeless virtues with temporary values. Consequently, mastering self has cultural, political, historical, philosophical, and theological implications for learning and understanding who and what you are. This discernment does not exist naturally in the human condition. It requires lifelong study. This book is for serious thinkers who want to clarify their worldview for wise living. It represents crucial truths, virtues, choices, and consequences for reference, reflection, or rumination. Understanding them fortifies relationships. Embracing them increases personal influence. Applying them benefits leadership. Practicing them sustains through difficulty. Cultivating them makes life worth living. These papers provide perspective about what matters in life: written with concise, clear, cogent context and correlated for coherence and continuity. They result from my reading, teaching, writing, and pondering to keep my heart with all diligence regarding issues in life (Prov. 4:23). Collectively, they pertain to what the exceptional few consider. Some pinch the comfort zone, give pause, stretch the mind, or unsettle settled assumptions. Those politically incorrect come from old-school insight by a stubborn gadfly with stubborn ideas regarding stubborn facts and stubborn problems. The insight comes from twenty-four years as a police chief leading and managing police affairs in an urban area with a large university.

Separating Fools from Their Money
Author: Scott B. MacDonald
Publisher: Transaction Publishers
ISBN: 1412855411
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
What do Michael Milken and Martha Stewart have in common? What was the most outrageous party thrown by a financial baron of the twentieth century? Which US war hero president became party to, and victim of, an unabashed con man known as the Napoleon of Wall Street? These questions and more are discussed in Separating Fools from Their Money. The authors trace the history of financial scandals beginning with young republic days through the Enron/WorldCom debacle of modern times. Informative and entertaining, this book reveals human nature in all of its dubious shades of gray. It also exposes themes common to all financial scandals, which remain astonishingly unchanged over time—greed, hubris, media connections, self-interested politicians, and booms-gone-bust, to name a few. This second edition features a new preface and introduction, plus three new chapters, which address the financial panic of 2008, post-panic scandals, and the “princes of Ponzi.” This book’s accessible writing will interest the casual business reader as well as the seasoned investor.

Across a Great Divide
Author: Laura L. Scheiber
Publisher: University of Arizona Press
ISBN: 0816502285
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Archaeological research is uniquely positioned to show how native history and native culture affected the course of colonial interaction, but to do so it must transcend colonialist ideas about Native American technological and social change. This book applies that insight to five hundred years of native history. Using data from a wide variety of geographical, temporal, and cultural settings, the contributors examine economic, social, and political stability and transformation in indigenous societies before and after the advent of Europeans and document the diversity of native colonial experiences. The book’s case studies range widely, from sixteenth-century Florida, to the Great Plains, to nineteenth-century coastal Alaska. The contributors address a series of interlocking themes. Several consider the role of indigenous agency in the processes of colonial interaction, paying particular attention to gender and status. Others examine the ways long-standing native political economies affected, and were in turn affected by, colonial interaction. A third group explores colonial-period ethnogenesis, emphasizing the emergence of new native social identities and relations after 1500. The book also highlights tensions between the detailed study of local cases and the search for global processes, a recurrent theme in postcolonial research. If archaeologists are to bridge the artificial divide separating history from prehistory, they must overturn a whole range of colonial ideas about American Indians and their history. This book shows that empirical archaeological research can help replace long-standing models of indigenous culture change rooted in colonialist narratives with more nuanced, multilinear models of change—and play a major role in decolonizing knowledge about native peoples.
