Sinopse

An accessible guide to understanding many of the complex technical and special terms implemented by the seventeenth-century philosopher. French philosopher René Descartes authored many works in his lifetime like Discourse on the Method and Principles of Philosophy. But while his “I think, therefore I am” may be easy to grasp, much of the terminology he uses can be challenging. Descartes would frequently introduce terms in his writings without explanation, and if there were such a definition, it is in one of his letters or an obscure, unpublished work. In Descartes Dictionary, author John M. Morris collects as many as possible of the technical and special phrases Descartes employed in his writings along with their definitions in Descartes’s own words. This volume is a great companion book for anyone studying the philosopher’s works and will certainly enrich their understanding.

    Traumatic experiences happen to nearly everyone, at some time, in some form. The aftereffects—depression, anxiety, addiction, panic attacks, insomnia, and more—can affect us for years or even a lifetime. But the brokenness following a traumatic event is never a life sentence. We are all changed by trauma, but we do not have to be defined by it. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on cutting-edge research, Triumph over Trauma empowers you to find relief and hope once and for all. Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, this whole-person treatment approach recognizes you as a unique constellation of emotional, physical, intellectual, relational, and spiritual dimensions. This book explains how trauma affects your emotions, body, brain, relationships, soul, and dreams. Then it shows you how to create a personalized plan to find your way back to wholeness, joy, and peace.

    The Art Of series, edited by Charles Baxter, is a new series of brief books by contemporary writers on an important craft issue. Each book investigates an aspect of the craft of fiction, creative nonfiction, or poetry by discussing works by authors past and present. The books in The Art Of series are not strictly manuals, but serve readers and writers by illuminating aspects of the craft of writing that people think they already know but don't really know.The first book in The Art Of series of books on the craft of writing, fiction writer and essayist Charles Baxter's The Art of Subtext discusses and illustrates the hidden subtextual overtones and undertones in fictional works haunted by the unspoken, the suppressed, and the secreted. As Baxter notes in one essay, "A novel is not a summary of its plot but a collection of instances, of luminous specific details that take us in the direction of the unsaid and unseen."Using an array of examples from Melville and Dostoyevsky to contemporary writers Paula Fox, Edward P. Jones, and Lorrie Moore, Baxter explains how fiction writers create those visible and invisible details, how what is displayed evokes what is not displayed.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    What if the only thing standing between you and the life you want… is your ability to do the things you don’t want to do? 
    Most people wait for motivation. High achievers don’t. They’ve trained themselves to act—especially when it’s uncomfortable. In this brutally honest, no-fluff audiobook, How to Do the Things You Hate Doing takes you inside the real reason you procrastinate, self-sabotage, and avoid the hard stuff… and gives you the tools to finally break through. 
    You’ll learn why getting started feels like a punch in the gut, how your brain tricks you with false stories, why perfectionism is just procrastination in disguise, and how to beat fear, shame, and doubt before they shut you down. This book doesn’t teach discipline like a drill sergeant. It builds it like a muscle—simple steps, real momentum, lasting change. 
    Perfect for anyone who’s tired of feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or behind. Whether you’re building a business, working on your health, tackling that project you keep putting off, or just trying to show up for your own life—this audiobook will give you the mindset and mechanics to take action when it matters most. 
    Listen now and become the kind of person who gets the hard stuff done — no matter what.
