  What makes a person hold steadfast in their Faith amid profound trials? Faith Against Evil, Bonhoeffer's Stand in The Shadow of The Third Reich, delves into this compelling question by examining the life and theology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a pastor and theologian whose unwavering convictions led him to resist Nazi tyranny at great personal cost. 
  While Bonhoeffer's story of resistance is extraordinary, this study goes beyond mere biography. It explores the theological framework that fortified his resolve, asking whether specific beliefs or contextual factors provided the strength to endure when Faith was put to the ultimate test. By integrating Bonhoeffer's theological writings with the realities of his activism and suffering, this work illuminates how theology can serve as a source of endurance. 
  This study is not simply an addition to the Bonhoeffer scholarship. Its purpose reaches further, offering insights into systematic theology and contributing to a broader understanding of perseverance in Faith. 
  Faith Against Evil, Bonhoeffer's Stand in The Shadow of The Third Reich, invites readers to reflect on the enduring power of Faith under pressure. It provides a foundation for future theological explorations into what sustains believers in the face of adversity. It is a resource for theologians, historians, and anyone seeking to understand the profound interplay between belief and resilience.

  Presence - The Strange Science...

  A psychologist’s journey to understand one of the most unusual experiences known to humankind: the universal, disturbing feeling that someone is there when we are alone 
   
  These experiences of sensing a “presence” when no one else is there have been given many names—the Third Man, guardian angels, shadow figures, “social” hallucinations—and they have inspired, unsettled, and confounded in equal measure. 
   
  While the contexts in which they occur are diverse, they are united by a distinct and uncanny feeling of visitation. But what does this feeling mean, and where does it come from? When and why do presences emerge? And how can we even begin to understand a phenomenon that can be transformative for those who  
  experience it, and yet so hard to put into words? 
   
  The answers to these questions lie in this tour de force, which takes readers through contemporary psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience, and philosophy.  
   
  Presence follows Ben Alderson-Day’s attempts—as a psychologist and a researcher—to understand how this experience is possible. What is a voice when it isn’t heard, and how otherwise do we know or feel that someone is in our presence? Is it a hallucination, a change in the working of the brain, or something else? 
   
  The journey to understand takes us to meet explorers, mediums, and robots, andallows us to step through real, imagined, and virtual worlds. Presence is the story of who we carry with us, at all times, as parts of ourselves.

  Niccolò Machiavelli - The Prince...

  Niccolò Machiavelli, the Renaissance political thinker and diplomat, remains one of the most influential figures in political philosophy, and his ideas continue to shape modern discussions on leadership, power, and governance. His most famous work, The Prince, has long been recognized as a manual for rulers navigating the complexities of political life, emphasizing pragmatic strategies over idealistic visions of statecraft. In the centuries since its publication, Machiavelli’s work has both captivated and provoked scholars, politicians, and leaders, and his theories remain as relevant today as when they were first written. 
  At the heart of Machiavelli's philosophy is his focus on the practical realities of political power. Unlike many political theorists who are concerned with how politics should be ideally structured, Machiavelli emphasized how politics actually works. The Prince offers rulers advice on how to secure and maintain power, often advocating methods that defy traditional moral or ethical considerations. His famous assertion that “the ends justify the means” has become synonymous with political maneuvering that prioritizes results over values, positioning him as both a realist and a controversial figure in political thought. 
  Machiavelli’s impact extends beyond just the realm of politics. His ideas on leadership, human nature, and the strategic use of power have influenced not only political theory but also military strategy, business practices, and even popular culture. His work on statecraft speaks to a deep understanding of human behavior, and his insights into the manipulation of public perception, the nature of fear and loyalty, and the balancing of power dynamics have resonated across various disciplines. Whether used to guide national leadership or inform business strategy, Machiavellian principles are often invoked when discussing tactics for navigating complex, power-driven environments.
