  This book offers an insightful journey into the mental virtues that enable individuals to lead thoughtful, mindful, and informed lives. By embracing Understanding, Prudence, and Reflection, we can sharpen our decision-making, navigate life’s complexities, and foster wisdom in every aspect of our daily existence. 
  Understanding is the foundation of knowledge and growth. This section explores how seeking a deep comprehension of ourselves, others, and the world around us can lead to more compassionate, informed choices. It highlights the importance of open-mindedness, empathy, and the willingness to learn. 
  Prudence is the ability to make sound decisions, weighing the consequences of our actions. This part emphasizes the importance of careful judgment, foresight, and discipline in navigating life’s challenges. Prudence helps us avoid impulsive actions and ensures we make decisions that lead to long-term well-being. 
  In Reflection, the focus shifts to the power of introspection. By regularly reflecting on our thoughts, actions, and experiences, we can gain clarity, refine our goals, and grow emotionally and intellectually. This section emphasizes how mindful reflection leads to greater self-awareness and personal improvement. 
  Together, these three virtues enable thoughtful living, making it easier to navigate the complexities of life with wisdom, patience, and discernment. This book offers practical guidance on how to cultivate these virtues and integrate them into daily life for a more fulfilling and thoughtful existence.

  Soucy Jean-Yves

  It is 1963, Jean-Yves Soucy is 18 and looking for a summer job. He dreams of being a fire warden scanning the boreal forest from a fire tower. But to his dismay he is sent to an equipment depot somewhere between Val-d’Or and Chibougamau in Northern Quebec. His disappointment vanishes when he learns that the depot is located near a Cree community and that he will have two Cree guides, including a man named William Saganash, and his work will involve canoeing through the lakes and rivers of the region. 
  On each encounter with the Crees, on each of the long trips across water or through the bush, Jean-Yves expects to see a new world but realizes he’s meeting a different civilization, as different from his own as Chinese civilization. Yet he knows nothing about it. Nor does he understand the nature surrounding them as do his Cree guides, and friends. 
  Jean-Yves Soucy wrote this story because Romeo Saganash, son of William, insisted: “You have to write that, Jean-Yves. About your relationship with my father and the others, how you saw the village. You got to see the end of an era.” 
  He unfortunately passed away before completing it. However, in his poignant Afterword, Romeo Saganash provides a finishing touch to this story of an unlikely meeting of two worlds.

  The Revolutionary Self - Social...

  An illuminating exploration of the tensions between self and society in the age of revolutions. 
   
   
   
  The eighteenth century was a time of cultural friction: individuals began to assert greater independence and there was a new emphasis on social equality. In this surprising history, Lynn Hunt examines women's expanding societal roles, such as using tea to facilitate conversation between the sexes in Britain. In France, women also pushed boundaries by becoming artists, and printmakers' satiric takes on the elite gave the lower classes a chance to laugh at the upper classes and imagine the potential of political upheaval. Hunt also explores how promotion in French revolutionary armies was based on men's singular capabilities, rather than noble blood, and how the invention of financial instruments such as life insurance and national debt related to a changing idea of national identity. Wide-ranging and thought-provoking, The Revolutionary Self is a fascinating exploration of the conflict between individualism and the group ties that continues to shape our lives today.

  Party People - Candidates and...

  Candidates are the literal "face" of political parties, yet they are not wedded to them permanently: candidates can enter or leave politics, switch parties, move along or stay behind when parties split or merge. Even in parties that look stable, candidate change happens below the surface, ultimately altering what the parties stand for. Inspired by evolutionary theories, Party People: Candidates and Party Evolution conceptualizes candidates as "party genes" and develops a candidate-based approach to party evolution. Tracking candidates between elections and parties opens up new perspectives on party development in complex and dynamic settings in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) and beyond. Based on a new database of 200,000 electoral candidates from over sixty elections across nine CEE democracies, this book presents a groundbreaking study of party evolution using candidate change as an indicator of party change. Allan Sikk and Philipp Köker offer a series of methodological and conceptual advances for the measurement of candidate turnover, party fission and fusion, programmatic change, and party leadership change; the resulting analyses make a significant contribution to the study of CEE party politics as well as to the general scholarship on elections, parties, and political change.
