Beschreibung

The idea of home can be associated with the notion of an ancestral homeland, a place where something greather than any one individual began. It is difficult to underestimate just how powerful an experience visiting an ancestral homeland can be. There are several guides to tracing your Scottish ancestry and many serious historical studies of emigration. Rooted in Scotland takes a different perspective from most ancestry guides. Its starting point is that your sense of connection with Scotland has meaning and legitimacy, and that your journey of discovery helps you understand who you really are. The best places to start, tips on exploring ancestry and a guide to the best websites. Includes one man's emigration diary - a one-hundred-year-old first-hand account of what your own ancestors have gone through. Written by an ancestral research expert. Wherever you are in the world, your Scottish ancestry is worth exploring and celebrating. This book will help you do both. This book is a plea for restoring the role of emotion and imagination into all out dusty enquiries, and its warmth is inspiring. YOUR FAMILY TREE Will provide anyone with Scots ancestry with a wonderful insight into the significance of their heritage whilst inviting them to come and visit their homeland NATALIE MOFFAT, Ancestral Marketing Manager, Visit Scotland... a fresh and inspiring perspective on what it means to have Scottish ancestry, as well as providing creative ideas for bringing your own family history to life.

    Christian Philosophy as a Way of...

    Philosophy is often seen as anything but practically relevant to everyday life. In this brief, accessible introduction, Ross Inman explores four hidden assumptions that lurk behind questions involving philosophy's relevance. He shows that philosophy is one of most practical subjects of study, for it satisfies our deep human need to make sense of it all. 
     
    This book recovers a more classical vision of Christian philosophy as an entire way of life. Inman shows that wonder is the distinctively human posture that drives and sustains the examined life and makes a compelling case that philosophy is valuable, practical, and significant for every aspect of Christian life and ministry. Living philosophically as a Christian enables us to be properly attuned to what is true and good in Christ and to orient our lives to the highest goals worth pursuing. 
     
    This is an ideal introductory book for students of philosophy, Christian thought, and worldview studies. It will also work well in classical school, high school, and homeschool contexts.

    It Should Be Easy to Fix

    In 1977, Bonnie Robichaud accepted a job at the Department of Defence military base in North Bay, Ontario. After a string of dead-end jobs, with five young children at home, Robichaud was ecstatic to have found a unionized job with steady pay, benefits, and vacation time.
    		 
    After her supervisor began to sexually harass and intimidate her, her story could have followed the same course as countless women before her: endure, stay silent, and eventually quit. Instead, Robichaud filed a complaint after her probation period was up. When a high-ranking officer said she was the only one who had ever complained, Robichaud said, “Good. Then it should be easy to fix.”
    		 
    This timely and revelatory memoir follows her gruelling eleven-year fight for justice, which was won in the Supreme Court of Canada. The unanimous decision set a historic legal precedent that employers are responsible for maintaining a respectful and harassment-free workplace. Robichaud’s story is a landmark piece of Canadian labour history—one that is more relevant today than ever.

    The Unbroken Reich - What If...

    As World War I raged across Europe, 1917 emerged as the critical year that could have determined the war’s ultimate outcome. In our reality, the entry of the United States and the crumbling of the Eastern Front led to Germany’s eventual defeat. But what if events had unfolded differently? A few pivotal moments could have swung the war in Germany’s favor, altering the course of history entirely. 
    One of the most significant factors was the failure of the German spring offensives in 1918. If these attacks had broken through Allied lines, Germany might have forced Britain and France to negotiate peace before American troops arrived in full strength. The Germans, under General Ludendorff, came close to achieving this, but logistical challenges and the resilience of the Allies ultimately led to exhaustion on the German side. Had Germany secured victory on the Western Front in early 1918, a new Europe could have emerged under German dominance. 
    Another key element was the Russian Revolution. With the fall of the Tsar and the rise of the Bolsheviks, Russia exited the war, allowing Germany to shift troops westward. However, if Germany had been able to negotiate a more favorable peace with Russia earlier—perhaps by supporting a less radical government—it could have stabilized the Eastern Front sooner, securing vital resources and preventing the chaotic collapse that followed. A stable Russian ally or puppet state could have relieved Germany’s strategic burden and ensured long-term control over Eastern Europe.
