Sinossi

'Silver Lining' explores the enduring influence of proverbs in modern communication, offering a fascinating examination of how these ancient wisdom nuggets continue to shape our decision-making and interpersonal interactions. The book uniquely bridges the gap between historical linguistics and practical application, demonstrating how proverbs serve as powerful cognitive shortcuts and cultural touchstones in contemporary society.

 
Through a well-structured approach spanning three main sections, the work first delves into the historical evolution of English proverbs from medieval times to present day. It then examines their psychological and social impact before providing actionable frameworks for incorporating proverbial wisdom into professional and personal communication. The inclusion of 500 frequently used proverbs, complete with historical context and regional variations, makes this resource particularly valuable for language educators and communication professionals.

 
What sets this book apart is its innovative organization of proverbs based on communication objectives rather than traditional alphabetical listing. Drawing from cognitive science, linguistics, and social psychology, it presents evidence-based insights while maintaining accessibility for general readers. The progression from theoretical understanding to practical application makes it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to enhance their communication skills, whether in business presentations, cross-cultural interactions, or educational settings.

    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
    A Groundbreaking Portrait of African American Christianity
    The history of African American Christianity is one of the determined faith of a people driven to pursue spiritual and social uplift for themselves and others to God's glory. Yet stories of faithful Black Christians have often been forgotten or minimized. The dynamic witness of the Black church in the United States is an essential part of Christian history that must be heard and dependably retold.
    In this groundbreaking two-volume work, Walter R. Strickland II does just that through a theological-intellectual history highlighting the ways theology has formed and motivatedBlack Christianity across the centuries. Through his original research he has identified five theological anchors grounding African Americans in Christian orthodoxy:
    
    - Big God
    - Jesus
    - Conversion and walking in the Spirit
    - The Good Book
    - Deliverance
    In volume 1, a narrative history, Strickland tells the story of these themes from the 1600s to the present. He explores the crucial ecclesiastical, social, and theological developments, including the rise of Black evangelicalism as well as broader contributions to politics and culture.
    Swing Low offers a defining rubric under which to observe, understand, and learn from the diverse and living entity that is African American Christianity. Volume 2, a companion anthology, covers the breadth of these historical developments by presenting primary-source documents so we can listen to Black Christianity in its own words.

    The second-century Greek physician Galen—the most famous doctor in antiquity after Hippocrates—is a central figure in Western medicine. A talented doctor, surgeon, writer, philosopher, teacher, pharmacologist, and inventor, Galen attended the court of Marcus Aurelius, living through outbreaks of plague that devastated the Roman Empire. He also served as a physician for professional gladiators. In writings that provided the foundation of Western medicine up to the nineteenth century, Galen created a unified account of health and disease. In How to Be Healthy, practicing physician and classical historian Katherine Van Schaik presents a collection of Galen's enduring insights about how we can take care of our bodies and minds, prevent disease, and reach a healthy old age. 
     
     
     
    Although we now know that many of Galen's ideas about physiology are wrong, How to Be Healthy shows that much of his advice remains sound. In these selections from his writings, presented in fresh translations, Galen discusses the art of medicine, exercise and diet, the mind-body connection, the difficulty of applying general medical principles to individuals, and much more. Featuring an introduction and brief commentaries that connect ancient medical practices to modern ones, How to Be Healthy offers an entertaining and enlightening new perspective on the age-old pursuit of wellness.

    A Book That Will Change the Way You See the World 
    What if everything you've been taught is only part of the story? What if the truth lies not in what we already know, but in what we dare to imagine?

    This book begins with science—its triumphs, its insights, and the way it shapes our lives. But it doesn't stop there. It leads into something far more profound: a conversation about values, belief, society, and our place in a living, breathing universe. It asks not only what we know, but how we live—and whether we are living with awareness, responsibility, and compassion. 
    Inside, you'll find:A message that speaks to all of humanity, across belief systems and borders.A journey that connects scientific understanding with emotional truth and spiritual insight.Personal reflections, honest thoughts, and a call to awaken your own sense of purpose.
