  The chancellor of Germany does not rule with sovereign power, but by persuasion and support of its political parties. That’s what makes Angela Merkel’s contributions to Germany, Europe, and the entire world during her 16 years as chancellor so remarkable. 
  Kati Marton’s The Chancellor (2021) details this legacy from Merkel’s humble beginnings in East Germany through her meteoric rise in German politics. Throughout, Marton recounts examples of Merkel’s humble, indefatigable, and brilliant leadership as Germany’s first female chancellor. 
  As her tenure went on, Merkel began to take global democracy increasingly seriously. With authoritarian populism beginning to spread during her final years as chancellor, she worked relentlessly to ensure European affairs were untainted by the time she left. Despite never truly wanting the role, Merkel leaves her position as the unofficial chancellor of Europe.

  If spiritual progress is your goal, then there is no substitute for the word of God. We have intertwined our divine prosperity with physical, financial, and sentimental achievements. We must follow that which is fundamental.  
  You do not need to know how to think or how to act. Success requires listening to the still small voice of God and following His instructions. What makes things happen is obedience to His Word. 
  When He asked me to write this, I became His author because He asked me to write what He did when I obeyed. 
  People asked me to write this book, but I said no, I did not want people to know me, but I wanted them to know the Lord. 
  One afternoon a friend came over and brought some of her friends I had never met.  
  I did not know that one of them was a prophetess, and as she began to pray for me, she prophesied that I would finish the book that I had started and that it would give glory to God. 
  Now, during that time, I was very sick. However, negative thoughts kept me from moving forward and the book forgot me. 
  So when the prophetess said that the book would give glory to God and not to me, it completely changed my mind. 
  Many things have also prevented you from moving forward because of the liar, Satan, I learned that fear, twisting the word of God, and telling us the opposite of what God wants for us is the mastermind technique of the devil. 
  What will result from your listening to God instead of the liar? All things are possible. If I can do it, so can you. 
  May this book lead you to God's higher plan for you to receive all the blessings that can only come from Him. 
  God is the Author and I am just the humble vessel, He even gave me the title, I did it His way. All glory to God! 
  I Did It His Way

  A New York Times Book Review Ten Best Books of 2022 A Wall Street Journal Ten Best Books of 2022 The acclaimed, award-winning New Yorker writer Rachel Aviv offers a groundbreaking exploration of mental illness and the mind, and illuminates the startling connections between diagnosis and identity. In Strangers to Ourselves, a powerful and gripping debut, Rachel Aviv raises fundamental questions about how we understand ourselves in periods of crisis and distress. Drawing on deep, original reporting as well as unpublished journals and memoirs, Aviv writes about people who have come up against the limits of psychiatric explanations for who they are. She follows an Indian woman, celebrated as a saint, who lives in healing temples in Kerala; an incarcerated mother vying for her children’s forgiveness after recovering from psychosis; a man who devotes his life to seeking revenge upon his psychoanalysts; and an affluent young woman who, after a decade of defining herself through her diagnosis, decides to go off her meds because she doesn’t know who she is without them. Animated by a profound sense of empathy, Aviv’s exploration is refracted through her own account of living in a hospital ward at the age of six and meeting a fellow patient with whom her life runs parallel—until it no longer does. Aviv asks how the stories we tell about mental disorders shape their course in our lives. Challenging the way we understand and talk about illness, her account is a testament to the porousness and resilience of the mind.

  A critically-acclaimed literary memoir braiding together environmental research and the personal journey of generational healing, grief, and chronic illness. 
  Author Eiren Caffall is the inheritor of a family legacy of two hundred years of genetic kidney disease and the mother of a child who may inherit that legacy. 
  A literary memoir on loss, chronic illness, and generational healing, Caffall’s The Mourner’s Bestiary is also a meditation on grief and survival told through the stories of animals in two collapsing marine ecosystems—the Gulf of Maine and the Long Island Sound—and the lives of a family facing a life-threatening illness on their shores. 
  The Gulf of Maine is the world’s fastest-warming marine ecosystem, and the Long Island Sound has been the site of conservation battles that predict the fights ahead for the Gulf. 
  "Beguiling, idiosyncratic [...] Caffall writes with plangent intensity about our responsibility toward the planet, and her eye for the wonder and beauty of ocean life pierces the illusion of disconnected existence." ? Whiting Creative Nonfiction Grant judges citation 
  "Eiren Caffall has produced some of the most powerful writing on the ecological crisis I have read anywhere. Caffall is a gifted writer, and this book is strong medicine." ? Naomi Klein, author, social activist, and filmmaker
