Book Synopsis Talking to Strangers by : Malcolm Gladwell
Download or read book Talking to Strangers written by Malcolm Gladwell and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2019-09-10 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Malcolm Gladwell, host of the podcast Revisionist History and author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Outliers, offers a powerful examination of our interactions with strangers and why they often go wrong—now with a new afterword by the author. A Best Book of the Year: The Financial Times, Bloomberg, Chicago Tribune, and Detroit Free Press How did Fidel Castro fool the CIA for a generation? Why did Neville Chamberlain think he could trust Adolf Hitler? Why are campus sexual assaults on the rise? Do television sitcoms teach us something about the way we relate to one another that isn’t true? Talking to Strangers is a classically Gladwellian intellectual adventure, a challenging and controversial excursion through history, psychology, and scandals taken straight from the news. He revisits the deceptions of Bernie Madoff, the trial of Amanda Knox, the suicide of Sylvia Plath, the Jerry Sandusky pedophilia scandal at Penn State University, and the death of Sandra Bland—throwing our understanding of these and other stories into doubt. Something is very wrong, Gladwell argues, with the tools and strategies we use to make sense of people we don’t know. And because we don’t know how to talk to strangers, we are inviting conflict and misunderstanding in ways that have a profound effect on our lives and our world. In his first book since his #1 bestseller David and Goliath, Malcolm Gladwell has written a gripping guidebook for troubled times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up the son of agnostics, John Koessler saw a Catholic church on one end of the street and a Baptist on the other. In the no-man’s land between the two, this curious outside wondered about the God they worshipped—and began a lifelong search to comprehend the grace and mystery of God.

Like a contemporary Pilgrim’s Progress, it traces the author’s journey and explores his experiences with both charismatic and evangelical Christianity.

John Koessler provides a poignant and often humorous window into the interior of the soul as he describes his journey from doubt and struggle with the church to personal faith

Book Synopsis Speaking with Strangers by : Mary Cantwell
Download or read book Speaking with Strangers written by Mary Cantwell and published by HMH. This book was released on 1998-04-28 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of American Girl, a “profoundly moving” memoir of single motherhood, loneliness, and finding one’s way home (The New York Times). After growing up in a small New England town and achieving professional success working for Manhattan fashion magazines, Mary Cantwell finds herself personally bereft. Having made it through to the other side of a painful divorce, she is faced with the challenge of raising two daughters alone and seizes any opportunity to leave it all behind—if only for a while. Taking on travel assignments that send her around the world, Cantwell recounts her experiences in vivid detail as she makes fleeting connections with strangers in all walks of life. But above all, she craves the intimacy she has lost—both in the death of her marriage and that of her beloved father. Eventually, Cantwell finds passion in an intense and tumultuous affair with a famous writer she refers to only as “the balding man.” But as time goes on, she realizes she must face her responsibilities at home. In this unflinching account of a trying time in a woman’s life, Cantwell “writes with a breathless intensity about love affairs and friendships, impulsive decisions and equally sudden fits of repentance” (People). “Anyone who has read Cantwell’s earlier memoirs, American Girl (1992) and Manhattan When I Was Young (1995), knows her voice is as tough, as golden, as graceful as forsythia taking hold in a city backyard. . . . A dark, heady wine of a book; every sip is memorable and complex.” —Booklist

Download or read book The Strangers Book written by Lloyd Pratt and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strangers Book explores how various nineteenth-century African American writers radically reframed the terms of humanism by redefining what it meant to be a stranger. Rejecting the idea that humans have easy access to a common reserve of experiences and emotions, they countered the notion that a person can use a supposed knowledge of human nature to claim full understanding of any other person's life. Instead they posited that being a stranger, unknown and unknowable, was an essential part of the human condition. Affirming the unknown and unknowable differences between people, as individuals and in groups, laid the groundwork for an ethical and democratic society in which all persons could find a place. If everyone is a stranger, then no individual or class can lay claim to the characteristics that define who gets to be a human in political and public arenas. Lloyd Pratt focuses on nineteenth-century African American writing and publishing venues and practices such as the Colored National Convention movement and literary societies in Nantucket and New Orleans. Examining the writing of Frederick Douglass in tandem with that of the francophone free men of color who published the first anthology of African American poetry in 1845, he contends these authors were never interested in petitioning whites for sympathy or for recognition of their humanity. Instead, they presented a moral imperative to develop practices of stranger humanism in order to forge personal and political connections based on mutually acknowledged and always evolving differences.
Book Synopsis Believers but Strangers in the Eye's of God by : Sharon D. Meadows
Download or read book Believers but Strangers in the Eye's of God written by Sharon D. Meadows and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-01-11 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a modern world where Christianity is spoken of candidly, many profess the faith although their lifestyles contradict their belief. They are lukewarm in their actions and prefer to remain spiritually ignorant. Blinded by the pleasures of this world, they feed the flesh which ultimately corrupts the soul. They proclaim perfection is unreachable and God judges the heart, but his word says, Be perfect, therefore, as your father in heaven is perfect Matthew 5:48. For out of the heart comes evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slander Matthew 15:19. We have been deceived by the enemy in believing there are no consequences for our sin. There are pastors who deny the existence of hell and promote heaven as a place we all will dwell. These lies are manipulations of the truth. They are for people who need encouragement to continue the road to destruction and for those enjoying a life of mediocrity with no accountability. This book is designed for a remnant of people who grieve over believers portraying a different walk than what they talk. It exposes hypocrisy, condemns the practice of falsehood, and reveals the truth which may be the ultimate savior of your soul!

Book Synopsis The Strangers by : Katherena Vermette
Download or read book The Strangers written by Katherena Vermette and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2024-03 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Strangers, a breathtaking companion to Vermette's bestselling debut The Break, is a fierce exploration of race, class, inherited trauma, and matrilineal bonds that--despite everything--refuse to be broken. Cedar, Phoenix, and Elsie--these are the Strangers, each haunted in her own way. Cedar grapples with the pain of being separated from her mother, Elsie, and her sister, Phoenix. From a youth detention center, Phoenix gives birth to a baby she'll never get to raise. And Elsie, struggling with addiction and determined to turn her life around, is buoyed by the idea of being reunited with her daughters and striving to be someone they can depend on, unlike her own distant mother. Between flickering moments of warmth and support, the women diverge and reconnect, fighting to survive in a fractured system that pretends to offer success but expects them to fail. Facing the distinct blade of racism from those they trusted most, they urge one another to move through the darkness, all the while wondering if they'll ever emerge safely on the other side.

Book excerpt: Toby Hood, a young Englishman, shuns the politics and the causes his liberal parents passionately support. Living in Johannesburg as a representative of his family's publishing company, Toby moves easily, carelessly, between the complacent wealthy white suburbs and the seething, vibrantly alive black townships. His friends include a wide variety of people, from mining directors to black journalists and musicians, and Toby's colonial-style weekends are often interspersed with clandestine evenings spent in black shanty towns. Toby's friendship with Steven Sithole, a dashing, embittered young African, touches him in ways he never thought possible, and when Steven's own sense of independence from the rules of society leads to tragedy, Toby's life is changed forever.
