I'm Tired of Living Dead
Author: Nadine Williams
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1640286810
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 59
Book Description
This is a story of how one little girl, at the age of five, became boisterous and bold in the face of abuse. She stood up against it and was determined that she would win over it. It's a story of how her connection with God gave her the strength that she would need to be a survivor and a conqueror. This is a story of how one woman was to, with determination, squash what was meant to kill her by standing up in faith and courage. She lived a life of traumatic abuse for the next fifty years and defied death in every sense of the word physically, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, verbally, sexually, and economically. See how living in a domestic violence environment robs you of true living. This silent killer of abuse could have led to physical death but did not. This book is not a book you read for casual reading or just for your book club. From this story you begin to identify with the character, or, as life unfolds before you in your present state and possibly realize it's real life happening today. That her simple cry, for help may not be so simple!

The Burnout Society
Author: Byung-Chul Han
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 0804797501
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 69
Book Description
Our competitive, service-oriented societies are taking a toll on the late-modern individual. Rather than improving life, multitasking, "user-friendly" technology, and the culture of convenience are producing disorders that range from depression to attention deficit disorder to borderline personality disorder. Byung-Chul Han interprets the spreading malaise as an inability to manage negative experiences in an age characterized by excessive positivity and the universal availability of people and goods. Stress and exhaustion are not just personal experiences, but social and historical phenomena as well. Denouncing a world in which every against-the-grain response can lead to further disempowerment, he draws on literature, philosophy, and the social and natural sciences to explore the stakes of sacrificing intermittent intellectual reflection for constant neural connection.
