Through poetic insight, contemplative reflections, and everyday practices, The Way of the Mirror is a companion for those who sense there must be more — not more to achieve, but more to remember.Drawing on the silent truths that live beneath language — from a...

In the long tradition of the anti-hero in English literature, award-winning author Daniel Jacob has created a whole bunch of them - each able to stand shoulder to shoulder with a Flashman or anyone from the pages of a Waugh novel. With the touch of a Tom Sharpe for grand farce, the grotesque Crooke-Wells siblings trace their mean, mendacious and downright nasty steps through a series of plots and pitfalls in their attempt to accumulate unearned and entirely unmerited wealth. Standing like ...

There are more opportunities than ever before in our history. But with one caveat. They are not the same as they used to be. Times have changed. And to take advantage of these changes, you have to adjust and adapt to the world we live in today. The bad news is that there will always be problems and challenges that need to be met and overcome. But the good news is that your possibilities are unlimited. This book is the second in the subject of selling and closing sales. The first one, "The ...

In two thousand and two, I undertook an investigation to determine the fundamental principles and basic principles underlying all selling. A thorough research culminated, in two thousand and thirteen, in the heuristically discovered (trial and error) Natural Laws Of Selling, and the self-evident, irrevocable basic principles that provide the bedrock and driving energy behind all sales techniques and methods. It turned out that this was hiding in plain sight all the time, but only revealed ...

This edited volume explores the agency of environmental media in architectural production. As design disciplines confront the changing landscapes and consequences of climate breakdown, media for communicating socio-environmental relations play an increasingly critical role in defining new narratives for the future of our planet.To confront the Anthropocene, designers must increasingly move between scales and across disciplines to develop new structures of knowledge and tools of rep...

If we are willing to shift our approach to church, we will better connect with increasingly heterogeneous cultures. This shifting requires curation. Church leaders must learn to be curators! Churches in modernity were set up to facilitate a particular kind of experience with God. Church was its own (protected) culture. In the wake of postmodernity, facilitated by new forms of (digital) communication, we are entering a new epoch in the history of the church. Curators manage the tasks of con...

You don’t want to be regretful of your behaviour, right? You would wish that everything happens the way you wish, right? You would always want to overcome and not succumb to any situations, right?If your response is, ‘YES’ then Strength of Emotional Competence is for you!The simple fact of life you cannot change many things and events that are happening around you. But one thing, for sure, you can change is your response to everything that happens around you! It is futile to ...

This edited volume helps bridge the elusive gap between theory and practice in dealing with the issue of "security" broadly conceived. A quarter of a century has passed since the crumbling of the Berlin Wall. Yet our notions of security remain mired in Cold War thinking whose realist ethos is predicated on holding the nation state's power, interests, and survival as the guiding unit of analysis in international relations. Security is ever changing. Confronting new dangers to the individual...

Grow people; grow organizations!Every organization, in order to function, needs resources—namely, money, machinery, materials and methods. Man was also considered as one of these resources—but no longer! Man—people—is a great possibility endowed with enormous potential. It is perhaps the greatest leadership responsibility of every corporate manager and business head to take the lead in ‘connecting’ with people on the intellectual level—developing acquaintance, ‘understanding’ on the...

Drawing on a broad range of approaches in the fields of sociology, anthropology, political science, history, philosophy, medicine and nursing, Power and the Psychiatric Apparatus exposes psychiatric practices that are mobilized along the continuum of repression, transformation and assistance. It critically examines taken for granted psychiatric practices both past and current, shedding light on the often political nature of psychiatry and reconceptualizing its central and sensitive issues ...

This is Daniel's first book of poetry. All of the poems were written between Winter of 2013 and Summer of 2015. Much of it is inspired by his experiences working on a farm in the Berkshire Mountains. But themes range anywhere from madness to love to appreciation of nature. Daniel hopes you find these poems enlightening and invigorating.

The analytic literature has heretofore been silent about the issues inherent in the nuclear threat. As a groundbreaking exploration of new psychological terrain, Psychoanalysis and the Nuclear Threat will function as a source book for what, it is hoped, will be the continuing effort of analysts and other mental health professionals to explore and engage in-depth nuclear issues.This volume provides panoramic coverage of the dynamic and clinical considerations that follow fr...
