  How do we model abundance and generosity — in teaching, in learning, in leading organizations, particularly non-profits — when dealing with fiscal austerity and other forms of scarcity thinking? Hope Circuits explores this question, presenting sophisticated ideas that support democratizing higher education for everybody.
  		 
  Written in a conversational style that draws upon Jessica Riddell’s experience in governance, senior administration, and scholarship, the book is a how-to guide and thought leadership manifesto for developing the conceptual tools to seek solutions to higher education’s most pressing issues. Hope Circuits aims to rewire mindsets, perspectives, and behaviours to in turn rewire and renew the systems within which university stakeholders learn, live, and work. It tackles this challenging feat by suggesting ten tools to build hope circuits, a concept borrowed from neuroscience. 
  		 
  Riddell acknowledges that changing systems and deep cultures is not for the faint of heart; indeed, the more than 250 interviews conducted with thought partners for Hope Circuits expose how individuals who navigate complex systems regularly experience discomfort and even despair. In response, she shows us how to anchor a practice of hope in higher education with focus and intention, inviting others to adopt and adapt her approach.

In doing so, Nietzsche challenges traditional religious interpretations of morality and urges readers to rethink their values through the lens of his own philosophy. Read in English, unabridged.

  Germanic mythology is a rich tapestry of myths, legends, and folklore that reflects the beliefs and values of ancient Germanic peoples. Encompassing a variety of tribes, including the Goths, Vandals, Saxons, and Norse, this mythology served as a crucial part of cultural identity and social cohesion. It provided a shared narrative framework that connected communities, reinforcing a sense of belonging among individuals. 
  The importance of mythology in Germanic culture lies not only in its role in explaining natural phenomena and human experiences but also in its function as a moral and ethical framework that guided the behavior of individuals and communities. Myths served to articulate values such as honor, bravery, and loyalty, which were central to the warrior ethos of many Germanic societies. Through heroic tales, individuals were taught the significance of courage in the face of adversity and the importance of kinship and loyalty to one’s tribe.

  Enfleshing Freedom - Body Race...

  The achievement of our humanity comes about only through immersion in concrete, visceral, embodied relational experience, yet for many human beings, that achievement is stamped by the struggle against oppression in history, society, and religion. In this incisive and important work, distinguished theologian M. Shawn Copeland demonstrates with rare insight and conviction how Black women's historical experience and oppression cast a completely different light on our theological ideas about being human. Copeland argues that race, embodiment, and relations of power reframe not only theological anthropology but also our notions of discipleship, church, Eucharist, and Christ. Enfleshing Freedom is a work of deep moral seriousness, rigorous speculative skill, and sharp theological reasoning. This new edition incorporates recent theological, philosophical, historical, political, and sociological scholarship; engages with current social movements like #BlackLivesMatter and #MeToo; and presents a new chapter on the body.
