Sinopse

Transatlantic Value Systems examines the intricate relationship between Europe and America, focusing on their shared democratic principles and the challenges these face in the 21st century. It explores the historical cooperation and contemporary friction points that define this crucial transatlantic alliance, noting that while both continents are rooted in democratic values, differing interpretations and priorities increasingly strain their partnership. For example, the book highlights how post-World War II initiatives like the Marshall Plan fostered cooperation, while events such as the Iraq War exposed significant policy divergences. The book offers a nuanced perspective by moving beyond simple narratives of unity, instead emphasizing the dynamic and often contested nature of the transatlantic partnership. It examines the evolution of transatlantic values through key historical events, using diplomatic records, policy analyses, and scholarly research to support its arguments. The book progresses from the philosophical underpinnings of transatlantic values to analyses of contemporary challenges such as economic competition with China and differing approaches to climate change. Ultimately, it proposes strategies for strengthening transatlantic cooperation based on shared values and pragmatic approaches to addressing divergent interests.

    How We Disappear - A Personal...

    A brilliant foray into the nature of information, of history, and of making meaning in the face of death and decay. 
     
    Our lives are collections of information—from mundane official documents, poignant family photos, and random artifacts to the cues embodied in our genes. Never is this more evident than in the wake of a parent's death. Yet from all these elusive, even evanescent, data points, history is written and a future is made. 
     
    This information is stored on clay tablets and wood pulp; in vinyl grooves, compact discs, and magnetic patterns; and relayed over undersea cables and satellite cell networks. But all information decays. Everything that we put "in formation" eventually collapses into randomness. 
     
    In this wide–ranging examination of the micro and macro, world–renowned scholar Thomas S. Mullaney reflects on the deaths of his parents, and on how human lives "disappear." Lyrical and poignant, his erudite, inspiring meditation offers eye–opening insight on the miracle of existence, and on what it means to forge meaning from a chaotic universe.

    This is Not New - Art Culture...

    Praise for Curationism: "Balzer writes with zest, skepticism, and sly humor" —Sheila Heti, author of Pure Colour 
     
     
     
    What does it mean to call something "new"? Why is Western art and culture, even after postmodernism, still so obsessed with the concept? What are the consequences of relying on culture to bring about social change? 
     
     
     
    In this provocative book, David Balzer argues that Western culture was never designed to produce truly new or original artifacts. Rather, we move from fixation to fixation, trend to trend—a cycle of creation and destruction with deep origins in Judeo-Christianity and the paganism that preceded it. The culture industry promises its own form of change while preserving existing systems of power exactly as they are. 
     
     
     
    From the New Jerusalem to the New Left, from Vannevar Bush to Kate Bush, This is Not New asks difficult questions about the role of culture not in making change, but in delaying—even preventing—it.

    Bearing the Unbearable is a Foreword INDIES Award-Winner — Gold Medal for Self-Help. 
    When a loved one dies, the pain of loss can feel unbearable—especially in the case of a traumatizing death that leaves us shouting, “NO!” with every fiber of our body. The process of grieving can feel wild and nonlinear—and often lasts for much longer than other people, the nonbereaved, tell us it should. 
    Organized into fifty-two short chapters, Bearing the Unbearable is a companion for life’s most difficult times, revealing how grief can open our hearts to connection, compassion, and the very essence of our shared humanity. Dr. Joanne Cacciatore—bereavement educator, researcher, Zen priest, and leading counselor in the field—accompanies us along the heartbreaking path of love, loss, and grief. Through moving stories of her encounters with grief over decades of supporting individuals, families, and communities—as well as her own experience with loss—Cacciatore opens a space to process, integrate, and deeply honor our grief. 
    Not just for the bereaved, Bearing the Unbearable will be required reading for grief counselors, therapists and social workers, clergy of all varieties, educators, academics, and medical professionals. Organized into fifty-two accessible and stand-alone chapters, this book is also perfect for being read aloud in support groups.
