Book excerpt: The amazing untold story behind the meeting between Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev in Reykjavik to stop the nuclear arms race. When Ronald Reagan and Mikhail Gorbachev sat down in Reykjavik in 1986, George Shultz, the U.S. Secretary of State, said that it was `the poker game with the highest stakes ever played.' It was the last time the world had a chance to do away entirely with nuclear weapons. This is the behind-the-scenes story of this remarkable summit conference in the remote Icelandic capital. An Impossible Dream is the first exploration of recently-available archives from both sides -- top-secret Kremlin files and the personal papers of Mikhail Gorbachev, as well as the archives of Ronald Reagan. These chronicles, personal diaries, and previously classified memoranda are deeply enriched by the personal reminiscences of many of the key players of this era. Serina lays out this pivotal moment in history clearly and dramatically in this landmark work, as the world stands poised on the edge of a potential new arms race.

Book excerpt: We live in disturbed times. Seemingly more now than at any time in the previous five decades, the planet appears riven. Against this troubling global background, An Impossible Dream traces author Peter Campbells six-week, eight-hundred-kilometre long walk along the Camino de Santiago across northern Spain, capturing what he saw and what he felt during the journey. Using the Camino as a backdrop, Campbell looks back at the cultural and religious conflicts of the Iberian Peninsula in the Middle Ages, and he reflects on the history of the Crusades, the Knights Templar, the legendary El Cid, and much more, drawing comparisons between now and times past. Through vivid descriptions and introspective reflection, An Impossible Dream portrays the physical, emotional, and psychological challenges Campbell faced as he undertook this epic walk, the relationships formed along the way, and the spiritual questions asked and answered. He considers his own conflicts and intolerances, and he offers an insightful reminder for anyone who has already walked the Camino, and a fascinating perspective for those who have yet to undertake that journey. He tells a story of a walk through lifea life lived, questions asked, and lessons learned.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary debate over the legacy of racial integration in the United States rests between two positions that are typically seen as irreconcilable. On one side are those who argue that we must pursue racial integration because it is an essential component of racial justice. On the other are those who question the ideal of integration and suggest that its pursuit may damage the very population it was originally intended to liberate. In An Impossible Dream? Sharon A. Stanley shows that much of this apparent disagreement stems from different understandings of the very meaning of integration. In response, she offers a new model of racial integration in the United States that takes seriously the concerns of longstanding skeptics, including black power activists and black nationalists. Stanley reformulates integration to de-emphasize spatial mixing for its own sake and calls instead for an internal, psychic transformation on the part of white Americans and a radical redistribution of power. The goal of her vision is not simply to mix black and white bodies in the same spaces and institutions, but to dismantle white supremacy and create a genuine multiracial democracy. At the same time, however, she argues that achieving this model of integration in the contemporary United States would be extraordinarily challenging, due to the poisonous legacy of Jim Crow and the hidden, self-reinforcing nature of white privilege today. Pursuing integration against a background of persistent racial injustice might well exacerbate black suffering without any guarantee of achieving racial justice or a worthwhile form of integration. As long as the future of integration remains uncertain, its pursuit can neither be prescribed as a moral obligation nor rejected as intrinsically indefensible. In An Impossible Dream? Stanley dissects this vexing moral and political quandary.

Coming out, growing up, serving his country and fighting for others against all odds: This journey gives hope to anyone on the front line of our equality struggle." Lt. Dan Choi West Point Graduate, Iraq War Veteran and Infantry Officer, honorably discharged for telling the truth and starting a group of West Point LGBT Graduates. An accomplished, aging man is preparing for yet another dream-to conduct the first known bicycle-book tour (which will require peddling both miles and books.) Who will believe 2,500 miles is possible for a man with gravely serious medical issues-at age sixty-five? Witnessing the lifetime spiritual journey of Vinny Pirelli, starting at age six with his very first bicycle, you track his development of being the only boy among many siblings, through growing pains of adolescence and teen years. He struggles with, and represses homosexual tendencies, putting his emotions into bicycling and writing songs. As a young adult, Vinny proves successful at whatever he attempts-even in building a family with the first girl he had sexual feelings for. As a ten-year Army leader, he learns hard lessons of losing friendships, love and trust, with the ultimate betrayal of his own father. J.V. Petretta is a graduate of U. of Maryland, European Division. He is a ten-year U.S. Army Veteran with three overseas tours, including Vietnam. After his honorable discharge, he received a Meritorious Service Medal for distinguished service as 1st Armored Division's Nuclear Control Chief. In addition to earning numerous business accolades, he organized and conducted a 5,000 mile bicycle tour in 1995, bringing critical awareness and funding for AIDS. Author's proceeds from the sale of this book will be divided among selected cycling and LGBT advocate groups, and his own future work in Africa. Contact: [email protected]

But above all, the stage is set with a personal and exclusive preface from Gorbachev himself. An Impossible Dream is the deeply important examination of the present and the future. The hazards of the nuclear age are legion, from aging weapons to new software that is vulnerable to terrorist attacks. With elements of the Trump administration considering a unilateral abrogation of the intermediate range nuclear missile (INF) treaty, the roots of which were laid at Reykjavik. Serina lays out this pivotal moment in history clearly and dramatically in this landmark work, as the world stands poised on the edge of a potential new arms race.

The story of a girl's love for horses and her love for God; she struggles to hold onto God's promises for her life. This is an adventure in faith, hope and love. Auna's love for a horse drives her to face death. Her faith in God must see her through when her whole world collapses. Hope is all that those who love her have to fall back on when death seems imminent. Faith that God's will and timing is of utmost importance, hope that God will see them through the most difficult times and love, as God loves, for all those around them keeps them dependent on God's plan and timing.

Book excerpt: The Redress Movement refers to efforts to obtain the restitution of civil rights, an apology, and/or monetary compensation from the U.S. government during the six decades that followed the World War II mass removal and confinement of Japanese Americans. Early campaigns emphasized the violation of constitutional rights, lost property, and the repeal of anti-Japanese legislation. 1960s activists linked the wartime detention camps to contemporary racist and colonial policies. In the late 1970s three organizations pursued redress in court and in Congress, culminating in the passage of the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, providing a national apology and individual payments of $20,000 to surviving detainees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In winter, in the beginning of an heavy snow, when a thick curtain appeared on the glass to prevent seeing; by lynching lamps from houses’ roof. A ten years kid started screaming “Mom, mom, ...... mom”. It was a gloomy funeral, as the death of the mother Tekyami Kiya. The presence was so dejected, the father Tekyami Tadashi, Tekyami Dean the brother and some other family. As the ceremony finished, the family went back home, Akio went to his bed, putting his head under the pillows and started crying, repeating the memories of his mom that never go. Memories that never started yet, he quickly fell asleep. He was tired ... exhausted ... and alone... The memory of the date “the sixth of February” the snowfall time and the spread of frosts, the memory of the death of the mother, who will be absent, left a sad small family. She had been sick for years, and the doctors were confused about her poor health, but they indicated that it was related to her emotional state. After his sleeping, Akio’s dream started to live with him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God has placed a dream inside of each of us. Paul is saying in 1 Corinthians 2:9 that we cannot even imagine or comprehend, naturally speaking, the things God has prepared for us. He has a marvelous destiny planned just each one of us. It is so unique that He says no eye has seen it nor ear heard it. The dream God reveals to our hearts will be different for everyone, depending on individual gifts, talents and abilities. Dreams are the wellspring of passion. They capture the imagination and engage the spirit. They are capable of lifting us to new heights and helping us break through our self-imposed limitations. God-given dreams are the seeds of greatness.When there is no clear-cut direction or goal for which to live, human beings feel purposeless. Theres not a person on this planet who was born without an ability to do something well. Its up to each one of us to find out what that ability is, tap into it, and then pursue it with everything that is in us. We ere called to be conformed to the image of Jesus Christ. One of the keys to being conformed to His image is finding Gods plan for your life and doing itregardless of the cost. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has given us all goals and assignments. But even with the combination of right goals, sincerity, and zeal we do not always accomplish goals. In our endeavors too often we either have no sense of strategy or we use the wrong strategy. The strategy in the life of Jesus Christ is a strong emphasis on the cost of discipleship. Jesus seemed to spend more time warning men of trials and difficulties than he did urging them to follow him. The cost of discipleship means there is a price that one must pay to go further in God. Christianity is a challenge. What is it that you have always dreamed of doing, what is that you have always desired to accomplish in the Lord? The things we seek after in God are not out of reach, but they dont just come to us, even though God is no respecter of persons and He is ready to do the extraordinary, the remarkable, and the rare in every believers life. Though it may surprise you, the richest deposits on our planet lie just a few blocks from your house. They rest in your local cemetery or graveyard. Buried beneath the soil within the walls of those sacred grounds are dreams that never came to pass, songs that were never sung, books that were never written, paintings that never filled a canvas, ideas that never were shared, visions that never became a reality, inventions that never went beyond the drawing board the mind and purposes that were never fulfilled. Our graveyards are filled with potential that remained potential. I will endeavor in this book, meet the challenge set forth by The Word of God.

Book excerpt: The Impossible Dream became a fitting moniker for the Boston Red Sox season of 1967, a summer that still evokes memories of a time that united a city and transformed a franchise. Led by 1967 MVP Carl Yastrzemski and Boston's first Cy Young Award winner, Jim Lonborg, the youngest Red Sox team since the days of Babe Ruth went from ninth to first place in what remains the closest pennant race in baseball history. Tony Conigliaro, Rico Petrocelli, George Scott, Reggie Smith, Billy Rohr, Jerry Adair, and their teammates became household names to the Fenway Faithful as they carried the Red Sox to their first World Series in 21 years under manager Dick Williams.

Book excerpt: Both contemporary philosophy and commonsense morality presuppose a personal autonomy and integrity that an unjust social system may make impossible for some people. Babbitt examines the implications of this insight, drawing on feminist and antiracist political theory, contemporary analytic ethics and philosophy of mind, and nonphilosophical literature. She argues for the role of moral imagination in discovering and defending a more humane social vision. }Conventional wisdom and commonsense morality tend to take the integrity of persons for granted. But for people in systematically unjust societies, self-respect and human dignity may prove to be impossible dreams.Susan Babbitt explores the implications of this insight, arguing that in the face of systemic injustice, individual and social rationality may require the transformation rather than the realization of deep-seated aims, interests, and values. In particular, under such conditions, she argues, the cultivation and ongoing exercise of moral imagination is necessary to discover and defend a more humane social vision. Impossible Dreams is one of those rare books that fruitfully combines discourses that were previously largely separate: feminist and antiracist political theory, analytic ethics and philosophy of mind, and a wide range of non-philosophical literature on the lives of oppressed peoples around the world. It is both an object lesson in reaching across academic barriers and a demonstration of how the best of feminist philosophy can be in conversation with the best of mainstream philosophyas well as affect the lives of real people. }
