Sinopsis

Spiritual Ceremonies explores the vital role of ritual and tradition in indigenous cultures worldwide, revealing how these practices shape social structures, transmit knowledge, and connect communities to the spiritual realm. Investigating ceremonies offers insights into the resilience and adaptability of communities often marginalized in dominant historical narratives. Some rituals serve as potent tools for cultural preservation in rapidly changing global landscapes. The book highlights the embodiment of belief through ritual performance, the transmission of cultural knowledge, and the maintenance of social cohesion through these traditions. By examining the structure, symbolism, and function of ceremonies, the book argues that these practices are not relics of the past, but dynamic components of cultural identity. The book progresses from an introduction to core concepts, delving into specific case studies across the Americas, Australia, and Africa, culminating in a synthesis of common threads in indigenous ceremonies.

Grief - A Philosophical Guide

Michael Cholbi

Experiencing grief at the death of a person we love or who matters to us—as universal as it is painful—is central to the human condition. Surprisingly, however, philosophers have rarely examined grief in any depth. In Grief, Michael Cholbi presents a groundbreaking philosophical exploration of this complex emotional event, offering valuable new insights about what grief is, whom we grieve, and how grief can ultimately lead us to a richer self-understanding and a fuller realization of our humanity. 
 
 
 
Drawing on psychology, social science, and literature as well as philosophy, Cholbi explains that we grieve for the loss of those in whom our identities are invested, including people we don't know personally but cherish anyway, such as public figures. Their deaths not only deprive us of worthwhile experiences; they also disrupt our commitments and values. Yet grief is something we should embrace rather than avoid, an important part of a good and meaningful life. The key to understanding this paradox, Cholbi says, is that grief offers us a unique and powerful opportunity to grow in self-knowledge by fashioning a new identity. Although grief can be tumultuous and disorienting, it also reflects our distinctly human capacity to rationally adapt as the relationships we depend on evolve.

The Art of Delivery - The Inside...

Michelle Clement

The Art of Delivery ventures inside 10 Downing Street at the turn of the millennium to unveil how Tony Blair's government successfully transformed the public services we value most.
Though the Blair government had a huge mandate, there remained fundamental challenges to success – not least the Blair–Brown rivalry, which manifested itself in a proxy war over the direction of public service reform. Nevertheless, over four years, the Prime Minister's Delivery Unit, led by Sir Michael Barber, upgraded the way in which the British government implemented improvements to the NHS and the education system. It also represented a watershed for how Prime Ministers engage with the real-world delivery of their priorities.
Until now, much of this narrative has remained untold. Based on brand-new research and analysis, Michelle Clement uncovers the full story, drawing on 600,000 words of Sir Michael Barber's unpublished, handwritten private diaries as well as exclusive interviews and government papers. Filled with revealing insider detail, this is a human account of what it takes to effect change from behind that famous black door.
