"The Ape of Sorrows" examines humans and our behaviors in a new and captivating way and presents our species as a being of sorrows who thousands of years ago, lost its original or fixed habitat.

Maurice Rowdon has authored several books on animal/human intelligence and opens with a gripping retelling of the monkey brawl at the London zoo during the 1930s - a scene that illustrates the power of sexuality and instinct to affect animal behavior. As Rowdon shares the results of his intense studies of and comparisons between humans and animals, he portrays the human as he truly is - the least intelligent animal of all the creatures, while emphasizing the fact that even today, modern science continues to struggle to catch up with nature. As Rowdon diplomatically challenges long-held scientific beliefs, he offers his own theories as he carefully measures impulse versus astuteness in both the human and animal and why either creature may eventually leave its habitat enhanced or depleted.

Manifestations of the human being's need to conquer everything in its path are evident everywhere in the world today. "The Ape of Sorrows" provides valuable insight and the unique opportunity to view humans without self-condemnation as an eroded species dedicated to its own destruction.

The biblical principles found in The 7 Minute Spiritual Manager simplify spiritual management and increase spiritual reactions and reaction time when incorporated with the basic concepts of management. The book serves as a resource and an assessment tool. The seven-minute spiritual manager establishes a spiritually intuitive action plan for goals and objectives which lead to purpose; and decrees to the soul that as a result of spiritual practice (obedience), God will initiate and support thoughts and actions which will produce optimum outcomes in spite of obstacles and difficult situations. The spiritual manager strives for spiritual consistency and avoidance of flesh-laden distractions to close the time gap between events, thought for resolution, and spiritual reaction. The Bible, as the foundation of a spiritual action plan, serves as a resource for supporting and assessing progress towards godly purpose. The spiritual manager, unable to remove completely the burden of sin from worldly surroundings, empowers the soul to contradict the appeal of sin (wrong choices) to our weakest points. He or she invalidates and lessens sinful opportunities while maximizing spiritual production. temporary need, to attaining ongoing spiritual enlightenment and fulfillment.

The "relationships" picture in America is not pretty. People don't cry out loud about it the way they did a few decades ago. But, if asked, almost anyone can cite the going divorce rate. Young, old, male, female agree generally that a healthy, long-term relationship is as..".hard to find as good help" these days. Why is this so? Do things have to be this way? Is this situation beyond cure or correction; is the remedy too complex, too costly? Is it Me Or Is It You tackles all of these questions in a way that can best be described as an act of bravery. It plays the "blame game" without hesitation and points fingers without pity. And, as the title implies, it challenges the accused, abused, and aggrieved alike to consider whether a behavior or attitude change is warranted. Fast-paced and easy-to-read, the volume is part observations, analysis, and advice. Some of each element appears in all six chapters to clarify, instruct, amuse, and -admittedly at times- to serve as a red flag in the face of the already agitated. Always, the author's aim- to keep hope alive or create it where needed - is stated or hinted. Because of its no-holds-barred tone, Is It Me Or Is It You readily gives rise to two questions about the author: What do you know and why do you care? The author's views and advice are drawn from personal experience- some dire and tragic-- as a husband and family man- and from a wide-range of interactions as a businessman called upon to serve as s role model and Christian confidant to hundreds of the young and not-so-young over the years. His "knowledge" about relationships began with the hardnosed rules of a rigid step-mother; it includes the experience of a marriage that ended in the untimely death of his first wife shortly after the birth of their first child and subsequent marriage that remains "the delight of his life" after more than 21 years. He is 68, the father of 4 and the author of a precious book, The Real Deal About Real Estate: No Crap (AuthorHouse, 2007).

In "Vilynprakah," Nadirah Alford taps into some of the most painful moments of human experience and contrasts them with deep longings for love, hopes, dreams, and high expectations. She leads us on a quest for balance and satisfaction, while providing us with courage and strength. Alford beautifully illustrates how the delicate human spirit can survive traumatic events and become more resilient. Poetry flows directly from the author's heart. Alford's emotions and thoughts pour forth in a passionate manner, as in her poem "Eight Pieces" "Eight Pieces Just some girl who looks like her mother But cannot live without her cover Pieces that has been broken needs to come back together Like glass or a crossword puzzle Something full of mass Life been tough, too much aggravation and no satisfaction Attitudes flying and angers rising Forced apart a puzzle of eight Pieces scattered, I cannot live without them My eight piece puzzle Each piece is important to the other But now they are separated Years trying to set the pieces back together The puzzle is like a life force with each piece missing it's weaken It's tearing down flesh It's tearing down blood It's separating strength Causing tears of flood"

For readers of Caste and How to Be an Antiracist, a page-turning deep-dive into how bias is learned―plus a strikingly original and highly effective set of tools to un-learn it.

Imagine a world without bias. A world where all human beings can truly be just as they are and unleash their full potential.

Take a moment to imagine how you feel in such a world―not what you think about it, or whether you believe it's possible, but how you feel.

This is the proposition that opens Breaking Bias. It’s your invitation to embark on a journey that will radically change your experience and show you how you, in turn, can help reshape our world.

Drawing on two decades of original research and experience training thousands of students, Anu Gupta, a lawyer, scientist, and educator whose work focuses on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging, has written a comprehensive and compellingly readable guide for anyone who wants to understand and unlearn conscious and unconscious biases. Whether you're a teacher or student, engineer or creative, parent or grandparent, this book will train you to become more aware of and transform bias in your daily life and within you―especially beliefs and perceptions you may hold about yourself and others.

Blending ancient Buddhist wisdom with modern scientific evidence, Anu takes us on a deep-time journey to explore human identities and identity-based biases and to recognize that breaking bias is the key to unlocking multiple crises in our world―from racism, sexism, classism, and other -isms to burnout, loneliness, and climate change. Then he offers his signature PRISM toolkit―a science-backed, somatically informed set of contemplative tools―to help us dismantle learned bias within ourselves and in the world around us, moment by moment, with probing questions and writing prompts throughout the book that invite us to put these tools to use right from the start.

Breaking Bias is one of the few books that go beyond examining the history of bias to offer actual training in how to reduce bias, and it’s the only one written by an author with Anu's unique intersectional identities: a gay brown immigrant with Buddhist, Christian, and Hindu roots who is also an American lawyer and scholar of bias with lived experiences that span the globe. This is a book with the potential to transform the way we think and the way we live.

Jeff Scarborough was the only cameraman on duty at WNBC's newsroom in New York when the attacks of 9/11 began. Armed with privileged information from the '93 attack on the World Trade Center-realizing both towers were doomed-Jeff pulled out of an emergency convoy just short of the WTC as he and reporter Rob Morrison approached the burning towers. Taking charge at the scene, Jeff ordered live-truck engineer Eddie Alonzo to stay 500 feet away and told all responding crews to back-off-dangerously becoming NBC's sole cameraman broadcasting live from Ground Zero. He permitted only the live-shot reporter to join him at his camera position-and during their live broadcast, the South Tower collapsed. They ran for their lives; Jeff rescued Eddie and stayed to videotape the panic and the North Tower collapse. "September's Camera" is the story of that fateful day, and of a career lived on the edge of danger-as Jeff's lens captured conflict, urban riots, blackouts, serial killers, plane crashes and human frailty in all its forms.

"Recent studies in America has shown that there is a growing trend of non-believers who have given up on organized religion because their spiritual needs are not being met.

In this book Ken identifies eight, essential spiritual needs for becoming spiritually whole. He shares his personal spiritual struggle of letting go of the distorted religious beliefs imposed on him by his parents and other religious teachers.

This book not only provides helpful insights for non-believers but for anyone who is seeking spiritual wholeness."

Following on from How to Manifest, The Celestial Handbook and The Power of Ancient Wellness, this beautifully illustrated guide shows readers how to harness the power of numerology to interpret the hidden messages from the universe.

In a world full of uncertainty, you can always count on numbers. Sacred numerological sequences, otherwise known as numerology, are a way of interpreting the hidden messages behind numbers. Be it angel numbers, soul numbers, or life path numbers, assigning mystical meaning to specific numbers and the practice of using numbers to align with the divine dates as far back as the 8th century BC. You only have to take a leaf from the book of Nature to see how our seemingly spontaneous and chaotic universe has and continues to form using a very precise and orderly mathematical system.

In this beautifully illustrated book, well-known astrologer and life coach Carolyne Faulkner reveals the order behind the main methods in numerology and condenses them to show you how to fast track the art and trust your own intuition to help you chart your life path and read the messages from the universe.
