Sinopsis

In 'Joy and Power: Three Messages with One Meaning', Henry Van Dyke presents a thought-provoking exploration of the interplay between joy and personal strength within the human experience. This work is structured as a triptych of messages that succinctly articulates the transformative power of joy, illustrating how it can elevate the human spirit even in the face of adversity. Van Dyke's lyrical prose and reflective style are imbued with spiritual insight, drawing readers into a contemplative dialogue about the essence of happiness and its profound implications for a fulfilling life. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, the book resonates with the burgeoning interest in self-help and spiritual literature of the time. Henry Van Dyke was an accomplished poet, novelist, and theologian, with a background that combined literary elegance with a deep understanding of spirituality. His rich experiences as a pastor and educator likely informed the thematic concerns of this book, as he sought to illuminate the joy inherent in faith and life. The synthesis of his poetic sensibility and his beliefs shines through in this work, making it a compelling read for those interested in the confluence of art and spirituality. I highly recommend 'Joy and Power' to readers seeking uplifting guidance in a complex world. Van Dyke's gentle wisdom and motivating prose will inspire reflection and action, appealing to anyone navigating the challenges of modern life. This book invites readers to reclaim their joy and discover the power it brings, making it a timeless addition to one's literary exploration of self and spirituality.

    Leadership is often talked about—but rarely understood. 
    Extreme Leadership cuts through the jargon and theory to show what real leadership looks like under pressure. With clarity, edge, and real-world insight, Charles Patton delivers a direct, no-nonsense guide for those who want to lead—and get results. 
    Leadership isn't about titles, org charts, or abstract models. It's about stepping up when it counts, seeing what others miss, and taking action when others hesitate. Drawing from bold examples and practical lessons, this book explores how extreme leaders think, respond, and succeed—even in chaotic, high-stakes environments. 
    Written as a supplement to graduate-level courses but accessible to anyone with a stake in leading or following, this book challenges the idea that leadership is soft, outdated, or optional. It's not. It's essential. 
    If you want the things great people have, you must do the things great leaders do. This book shows you how.

    Marking fifty years of the founding of an LGBTQ rights movement in Ireland, Reeling in the Queers explores the lesser-known stories of the fight for LGBTQ rights since 1974, beyond decriminalisation and Marriage Equality. From 1990s boy bands to the AIDS priest, Fr Bernárd Lynch, from the Belfast Lesbian Line to proud parenting, from the earliest Pride events to the last days of Alternative Miss Ireland, fourteen distinct moments map the changing social and cultural landscape of Ireland.
    These stories, from across the island of Ireland – and further afield – celebrate a strong community and its allies, and speak across the generations. Together, they tell a new story of the gains, losses, devastation and community rising from the ashes of defeat. It is a hugely enjoyable and insightful read for both those who lived through this movement and for those who enjoy its benefits today.
    Drawing from oral history as well as archives, Reeling in the Queers brings even more to life the great big queer tapestry in Ireland. Queer history in Ireland is Irish history and acknowledging and celebrating the light and the dark of it protects all of our futures as much as our pasts.

    A Man of Few Words - The...

    'Nobody knows how much I owe that man', Primo Levi said of his Italian compatriot Lorenzo Perrone, who saved his life at Auschwitz. 'I could never repay him'. Each day for a period of six months, Perrone, who worked beside Auschwitz in desperate conditions, risked his own life to smuggle part of his own soup ration to Levi, quietly leaving the mess tin by a half-constructed brick wall. Without those extra five hundred calories, Levi could not have survived, and would probably not have written If This Is a Man, the first published account by a Holocaust survivor.
    
    In A Man of Few Words, Carlo Greppi pieces together the life of Lorenzo Perrone, a bricklayer from the Piedmontese town of Fossano, not far from Levi's native Turin. Near-destitute and with minimal formal education, Perrone left very few traces of himself. Yet despite their stark differences – Levi was a middle-class chemist – their friendship survived the Holocaust and continued until Perrone's tragic death. Levi never forgot Perrone. In every book he wrote, he mentions that he owes his life to a man named Lorenzo, and he returned persistently, in the last years of his life, to the man of few words who saved his life.
    
    Compassionate, worldly and prescient, Greppi brings us a story that has much to say about the world we live in today, about an individual who kept hope alive in one of the darkest times and places known to humankind.
