Book excerpt: Abandoned by his mother in a St. Petersburg dumpster when he was only three days old, Alex Krutov should not have survived. But God had something else in mind. Raised in the harsh Russian orphanage system, Alex's life was one of hopelessness and despair until the arrival of Christian missionaries from the West when the Soviet Union collapsed. Infinitely More is the inspiring true story of a young man who would not give up, and the God who relentlessly pursued him. Jesus said, "I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you." This is the story of God coming to Alex, and the hope He offers to all of us. Alex Krutov is the co-founder of The Harbor, a ministry to emancipated orphans in Russia. A graduate of Franklin University in Ohio, he divides his time between the United States and Russia.
Book Synopsis Infinitely More by : Amy Conway-Hatcher
Download or read book Infinitely More written by Amy Conway-Hatcher and published by . This book was released on 2021-12-20 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What's it going to be, Mom? Money or happiness?" This is the blunt question Amy Conway-Hatcher's fourteen-year-old daughter challenged her with as she was deciding whether to leave her Big Law equity partner job. Amy knew the climb was harder and longer for women. Tough, determined, and focused on her career, she persevered. Yet she didn't anticipate how gender barriers in male dominated systems could wear women down -- even her. Conway-Hatcher was among women making bold career changes in 2021. Infinitely More is her journey to understand why. Amy's story is an intriguing, thought-provoking, and heart-opening discovery of how a warrior career mom was lured into believing she could win over the system and beat the odds. Her strategy works for years, but she learns even the toughest of warriors face reckonings. Using her gift for advocacy, Amy sets the record straight on why highly-talented women leave big jobs and how leaders lose them. Through her own compelling story, she shares stark reflections and lessons learned about the messy realities and trade-offs career women must make when playing uneven games. With eyes wide-open, Amy reclaims her purpose and offers strategies and hopes for the future.
Book Synopsis Infinitely Full of Hope by : Tom Whyman
Download or read book Infinitely Full of Hope written by Tom Whyman and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A philosophical memoir about becoming a father in an increasingly terrible world – can I hope the child growing in my partner's womb will have a good-enough life? For Kant, philosophy boiled down to three key questions: “What can I know?”, “What ought I do?”, and “What can I hope for?” In philosophy departments, that third question has largely been neglected at the expense of the first two – even though it is crucial for understanding why anyone might ask them in the first place. In Infinitely Full of Hope, as he prepares to become a father for the first time, the philosopher Tom Whyman attempts to answer Kant’s third question, trying to make sense of it in the context of a world that increasingly seems like it is on the verge of collapse. Part memoir, part theory, and part reflection on fatherhood, Infinitely Full of Hope asks how we can cling to hope in a world marked by crisis and disaster.
Book Synopsis The Immanence of the Infinite by : Elizabeth Brient
Download or read book The Immanence of the Infinite written by Elizabeth Brient and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most scholars would agree that there is an epochal threshold between the world of the Middle Ages and the modern world. Agreement on the nature and dynamic structure of that threshold is harder to come by. Hans Blumenberg's original and compelling account of the transition from medieval to modern, given in his 1966 work The Legitimacy of the Modern Age, has received wide attention. Elizabeth Brient begins her own account of the transition with an extensive, critical assessment of central aspects of Blumenberg's work. She elucidates his "dialogical" method of historical explanation, then discusses the shortcomings of his defense of the "legitimacy" of modernity. The transition to the modern world is marked by the process of making infinite the finite medieval cosmos. Whereas Blumenberg focused on the spatial infinitization of the universe, Brient claims that the process must be understood intensively as well as extensively. In the now-infinite universe of the new science, the problem of finding a measure for man's self-assertive activity, and for human knowledge, comes to the fore. The second half of the book focuses on the way in which this difficulty is addressed with conceptual resources developed in the tradition of late medieval Neoplatonism, in particular in the speculative thought of Meister Eckart and Nicholas of Cusa. Specific attention is given to the way in which Cusanus' notion of the immanence of the infinite in the finite responds to the need for a regulative ideal for human knowing. This is the first book-length treatment of Blumenberg to appear in English and will be a most welcome resource for readers engaged by debates concerning the status of modernity. It will be of equal interest to students of Eckhart and Cusanus, and to those generally concerned with the transition between the medieval and the modern world. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Elizabeth Brient is Assistant Professor of philosophy at The University of Georgia. PRAISE FOR THE BOOK: "Blumenberg could not have wished for a more reverent critique of his achievements or a more exacting textual exegesis regarding the sources of their philosophical content, all written in a lucid style that is forthright in the defense of the depth of thought during the Middle Ages but also pleasing in its subtle irony with respect to Blumenberg's and the author's own metaphysical creed."- Walter F. Veit, Speculum "Brient's analysis of Blumenberg's philosophy sheds significant light in the debate concerning modernity. . . ." --Albrecht Classen, University of Arizona, German Studies Review
Download or read book The Infinite Game written by Simon Sinek and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of Start With Why and Leaders Eat Last, a bold framework for leadership in today’s ever-changing world. How do we win a game that has no end? Finite games, like football or chess, have known players, fixed rules and a clear endpoint. The winners and losers are easily identified. Infinite games, games with no finish line, like business or politics, or life itself, have players who come and go. The rules of an infinite game are changeable while infinite games have no defined endpoint. There are no winners or losers—only ahead and behind. The question is, how do we play to succeed in the game we’re in? In this revelatory new book, Simon Sinek offers a framework for leading with an infinite mindset. On one hand, none of us can resist the fleeting thrills of a promotion earned or a tournament won, yet these rewards fade quickly. In pursuit of a Just Cause, we will commit to a vision of a future world so appealing that we will build it week after week, month after month, year after year. Although we do not know the exact form this world will take, working toward it gives our work and our life meaning. Leaders who embrace an infinite mindset build stronger, more innovative, more inspiring organizations. Ultimately, they are the ones who lead us into the future.

Download or read book The Infinite Staircase written by Geoffrey A. Moore and published by BenBella Books. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NAUTILUS BOOK AWARD GOLD MEDALIST — BODY, MIND, SPIRIT PRACTICES “Combining an extraordinary range of scholarship with an accessible and entertaining writing style, The Infinite Staircase . . . provides a coherent and unified platform for a full human life.” —Midwest Book Review In this bold new book, high-tech’s best-known strategist makes a seminal contribution to the search for meaning in a secular era. Two questions fundamental to human existence have always been the metaphysical “where do I fit in the grand scheme of things?” and the ethical “how should I behave?” Religion is no longer a source of answers for many people, and nothing has replaced it. Moore uses his signature framework-based approach to answer these questions, taking us on an intellectual roller coaster ride through physics, chemistry, biology, the social sciences and the humanities. Along the way, he builds a metaphorical ladder that leads from the big bang to the need for ethical action in our daily lives. Combining an extraordinary range of scholarship with an accessible and entertaining writing style, The Infinite Staircase: What the Universe Tells Us About Life, Ethics, and Mortality provides a coherent and unified platform for a full human life.

Download or read book The End of More written by Norman Pagett and published by Lees Publishing. This book was released on 2013-05-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our chances of survival are being destroyed by overconsumption. In The End of More, Josephine Smit and Norman Pagett explore the history that has brought us to this point, and give us a glimpse of the devastating consequences of our actions. Energy has become more than the driving force of modern humanity; it is now the capital by which we live. Over the past 250 years we have used that capital to supply the food that allowed the exponential growth of populations, which in turn drove the increasing complexity of our global infrastructure. This has become our normality. As a result we enjoy a level of prosperity unique in our history, but we are living on capital, not income, and that is dwindling rapidly. That capital is hydrocarbon fuel, oil coal and gas, supplemented by metals, which we form by heat into the artifacts we need for survival. Our existence depends on combining and recombining those elements into a seemingly infinite range of products that now supports our infrastructure and market economy. We have unleashed the explosive forces of nature, and most of the world's population have deluded themselves that those forces will be available forever. We are locked into a system that demands constant, fuel burning growth, while we deny that our heat processes are destroying the planet we live on. But that delusion of infinity is now driving us into a wall of finite resources, while global population numbers continue to climb. Since the Industrial Revolution and the universal use of hydrocarbon fuels, our numbers have increased seven fold in 250 years. It is that pressure of numbers that is causing us to rip the Earth apart in search of sustenance, because we know no other way. The End of More drives home the reality that we are not facing a political, economic or technological crisis, but a crisis of survival. Prosperity cannot be voted into office. It is beyond our comprehension that we live in what is little more than a global Ponzi scheme, because our brains are not developed beyond that of the stone age hunter-gatherer. We are conditioned to survive at all costs, the brutality of ceaseless conflict shows that our civilisation is a very thin veneer. It may be that the Earth has recognised a plague species, and is using climate forces to get rid of us.

Book Synopsis Reasoning with the Infinite by : Michel Blay
Download or read book Reasoning with the Infinite written by Michel Blay and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until the Scientific Revolution, the nature and motions of heavenly objects were mysterious and unpredictable. The Scientific Revolution was revolutionary in part because it saw the advent of many mathematical tools—chief among them the calculus—that natural philosophers could use to explain and predict these cosmic motions. Michel Blay traces the origins of this mathematization of the world, from Galileo to Newton and Laplace, and considers the profound philosophical consequences of submitting the infinite to rational analysis. "One of Michael Blay's many fine achievements in Reasoning with the Infinite is to make us realize how velocity, and later instantaneous velocity, came to play a vital part in the development of a rigorous mathematical science of motion."—Margaret Wertheim, New Scientist
