Book excerpt: When Florida attorney Tina Jefferson hears her mother's gasping voice on the telephone, she knows something's happened. "What's going on, Mom?" Tina asks. "You sound...worried." "Worried?" the older woman retorts. "Why, everything's wonderful, Tina, what could possibly be wrong? I play shuffleboard every day and we all have such fun." Except, Tina knows, that her mother has never played shuffleboard in her life; she's a successful, lifelong sculptress. So Tina decides to jump into her flying club's airplane and cross Florida to her mother's condo on the west coast to see what's going on. When she arrives, at first glance nothing seems changed. But she soon discovers that a gate guard may have been murdered and residents are frightened. Maintenance fees are escalating, driving some into bankruptcy, and a new crowd of malignant managers has taken over the little island, threatening residents. Using her legal knowledge, Tina tries to help, but soon finds that protecting herself from escalating danger has become the ultimate challenge.
Book Synopsis Why America Failed by : Morris Berman
Download or read book Why America Failed written by Morris Berman and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why America Failed shows how, from its birth as a nation of "hustlers" to its collapse as an empire, the tools of the country's expansion proved to be the instruments of its demise Why America Failed is the third and most engaging volume of Morris Berman's trilogy on the decline of the American empire. In The Twilight of American Culture, Berman examined the internal factors of that decline, showing that they were identical to those of Rome in its late-empire phase. In Dark Ages America, he explored the external factors—e.g., the fact that both empires were ultimately attacked from the outside—and the relationship between the events of 9/11 and the history of U.S. foreign policy. In his most ambitious work to date, Berman looks at the "why" of it all Probes America's commitment to economic liberalism and free enterprise stretching back to the late sixteenth century, and shows how this ideology, along with that of technological progress, rendered any alternative marginal to American history Maintains, more than anything else, that this one-sided vision of the country's purpose finally did our nation in Why America Failed is a controversial work, one that will shock, anger, and transform its readers. The book is a stimulating and provocative explanation of how we managed to wind up in our current situation: economically weak, politically passe, socially divided, and culturally adrift. It is a tour de force, a powerful conclusion to Berman's study of American imperial decline.

Book Synopsis Living Walden Two by : Hilke Kuhlman
Download or read book Living Walden Two written by Hilke Kuhlman and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2005-05-31 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Walden Two, behavioral psychologist B. F. Skinner describes one of the most controversial fictional utopias of the twentieth century. During the 1960s and 70s, this novel went on to inspire approximately three dozen actual communities, which are entertainingly examined in Hilke Kuhlmann's Living Walden Two. In the novel, behavioral engineers use positive reinforcement in organizing and "gently guiding" all aspects of society, leaving the rest of the citizens "free" to lead happy and carefree lives. Among the real-world communities, a recurrent problem in moving past the planning stages was the nearly ubiquitous desire among members to be gentle guides, coupled with strong resistance to being guided. In an insightful and often hilarious narrative, Hilke Kuhlmann explores the dynamics of the communities, with an in-depth examination of the two surviving Skinnerian communities: Comunidad Los Horcones in Mexico, and Twin Oaks in Virginia. Drawing on extensive interviews with the founders and key players in the Walden Two communities, Kuhlmann redefines the criteria for their success by focusing on the tension between utopian blueprints for a new society and communal experiments' actual effects on individual lives.

Book Synopsis Living is a beautiful thing by : Suat Ünsal
Download or read book Living is a beautiful thing written by Suat Ünsal and published by Sama Kitap. This book was released on 2024-07-10 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pitch dark… You can’t see your hand in front of your face. You don’t see anything... When you don’t see, you don’t know, you aren’t known. Something like nothingness... But suddenly, as if you’ve pushed a button, everything becomes illuminated, visible, known... What a beautiful thing it is to exist. Living is a beautiful thing indeed. Life is the button of that light. Our Lord gave us life while we were far from life and friends. He gave us both life and friends... What a beautiful thing life is... Whatever is beautiful, we know it through life; we taste it through life; we experience all the beauties of life. We also find ourselves with life. Life is such a beautiful thing... It’s beautiful like air, like breathing... It’s beautiful like feeling as if you’re drowning, surfacing quickly and taking a deep breath. We save ourselves from drowning with every breath. It would be so good if we could enjoy being kept alive with every breath... How to be grateful for living; how to pay for the blessing of life. Getting used to things makes us blind, we can no longer see. Although the blessing we take for granted is staring us in the face, we throw it into that pitch darkness. When you can’t see it as a blessing, you can’t be grateful... Is there a cure for habituation? Yes, there is. Let’s close our eyes for a few seconds. Let’s open our eyes as if we were using them for the first time after the darkness... What is it like to see, to be able to see? What would you miss if you didn’t see? You can apply such a method of ‘breaking habituation’ for every blessing you have received and everything you love. This is how you can tear the veil of habituation... As the poet says: “Living is such a beautiful thing By understanding, like a master, a book Like a love song Living in wonder like a child...” As we get used to something and take it for granted, the taste, meaning and beauty of seeing it for the first time disappears. We can tear the veil of habituation and renew the meaning of life in our minds by changing our perspective. There lies the taste of life… … Isn’t this important too? The perfect level of life is the life of heaven. Our most vital issue is to turn this world into heaven on the one hand, and to do things that will elevate our lives to heavenly life on the other hand. Man was created for happiness in two worlds... However, happiness on earth and happiness in heaven are not the same. Since opposites coexist in the world, it will be unrealistic to seek full happiness. However, man can find peace with a ‘faithful attitude’ among the waves, turmoil, changes and the hustle and bustle of the world. One should live life to the fullest... He should increase his good deeds. He should fill his life with beauty. Living is really beautiful if you live like this... One should not forget the one who gave this beautiful life. We should not forget that we have Lord, who loves us more than anything He created. He is the one who creates love, He is the one most worthy of being loved; we should not forget it... Flowers, roses, especially butterflies; the stars, the moons, the sun, the seasons... one should live by appreciating them. In other words, we should give them their due on behalf of Allah... Living is really beautiful when you live like that... Otherwise, you see that living has become a dungeon and something meaningless... … Inshallah, “Living is a Beautiful Thing” will touch hearts and lead people to good deeds... May Allah be with you.
