Sinopse

Civic Participation Levels explores the varying degrees of civic engagement and volunteerism across different nations, seeking to understand why some societies thrive while others struggle with apathy. It examines how citizens interact with their governments and communities, focusing on participation in civic organizations, volunteerism, and political processes. The book highlights that variations in civic participation are not random but are influenced by institutional frameworks, socio-economic factors, and cultural attitudes. One intriguing insight is the significant impact of trust in government on promoting civic participation, demonstrating that higher trust levels correlate with increased engagement. This book analyzes large-scale international surveys and case studies to provide both quantitative and qualitative insights. It examines the impact of government policies on volunteerism and investigates the role of digital technologies in shaping contemporary civic action. By integrating perspectives from political science, sociology, and economics, the book offers a holistic understanding of civic behavior. The book progresses from establishing a theoretical framework to examining case studies and proposing actionable policies to promote broader civic engagement. Civic Participation Levels stands out due to its integrated approach, combining quantitative analysis of global datasets with qualitative case studies. This allows for uncovering the complex mechanisms underlying civic participation. For example, the book notes the critical role of social cohesion and access to resources as determinants of civic engagement. The book is valuable for students, scholars, policymakers, and anyone interested in strengthening civil society.

    In Opening to Oneness, Zen teacher Nancy Baker offers a detailed path of practice for Zen students planning to take the precepts and for anyone, Buddhist or non-Buddhist, interested in deepening their personal study of ethical living. She reveals that there are three levels of each precept: a literal level (don't kill, not even a bug), a relative level that takes moral ambiguity into account (what if it's a malaria-spreading mosquito?), and an ultimate level—the paradoxical level of nonduality, in which the precepts are naturally expressed from a state of oneness. 
     
     
     
    Full of nuance, intelligence, and compassion, the first half of the book addresses the ten grave precepts mostly from the relative level, including instructions for how to practice these precepts individually and in pairs or groups. The second half of the book takes a deep dive into looking at the precepts from the ultimate perspective, largely through an exploration of the writings of Dogen, the thirteenth-century religious genius who founded the Soto Zen school. 
     
     
     
    At once comprehensive and innovative, Opening to Oneness will take its place alongside classics like The Mind of Clover, The Heart of Being, and Being Upright as a cherished guide to Zen Buddhist ethics.

    A straight stud is starting to break… 
    Wade still struts around school in his varsity jacket like he’s the king of the world. Laughing it up with his jock buddies. Making out with his cheerleader girlfriend. Bullying the “queers”. But behind the eyes he’s starting to get desperate. 
    Wade hasn’t had sex in a week. Any kind of sex. Not since I put his manhood under lock and key. I wonder how much longer he can take it. Another day? Two? Pretty soon, the frustration will be too much, and he’ll do anything I want just to get some release. 
    There’s only one problem: 
    It turns out that I’m not the only one who has Wade in training. And somebody else wants to break him first.

    The true story of an airman's audacious escape from occupied France in World War Two. 
     
     
     
    Perfect for fans of The Great Escape, The 21 Escapes of Lt Alastair Cram, and The Wooden Horse. 
     
     
     
    Sir Basil Embry's Blenheim bomber was shot down in the summer of 1940. 
     
     
     
    During the course of his time in enemy territory he broke out from a column of prisoners while having a Nazi machine gun aimed at him, fought against his captors with stolen weapons, hid in stinking manure, and even posed as a member of the Irish Republican Army in order to throw his captors off the scent of his true identity. 
     
     
     
    In total he was captured three times and three times he refused to submit. Only through sheer courage and wit did he make his way back to Britain to fight and fly again. This is his remarkable story. 
     
     
     
    Anthony Richardson served as Adjutant in the same squadron as Embry later in the war and was told about these astounding exploits first-hand. This book will undoubtedly amaze all interested in moments of amazing fortitude in the face of overwhelming odds.

    When it comes to politics, in today's day and age our country is more divided than ever. Furthermore, this divide has transcended politics and now determines where you are allowed to live, who you can be friends with, and even what beer you can drink. Well, if you are like me then this status quo of "us vs them" politics is far from ideal. In fact, I would go so far as to say it is a legitimate travesty that would have the founders rolling in their graves. I say this because what makes this country so special, in my view, is that our country, the United States of America, is built upon a Constitution that enshrines We the People's power over the nation-state. 
    In other words, the American people are not subjects, we are citizens, and as citizens it is our inherent right, nay, our responsibility to collectively decide how the levers of US political power are pulled because, at the end of the day, the government answers to us, not the other way around. But we can't effectively do this when we are busy dividing ourselves into teams and fighting each other, can we? 
    In essence, that is the problem that this book seeks to remedy. This is to say that The Sane Citizens Political Handbook takes some of the most divisive political issues of our time and breaks them down in a non-partisan way so that you, the sane citizen who is fed up with the current Republican/Democrat duopoly, can have a reasonable position on those issues that is grounded in logic, science, and the US Constitution, not one of the two major political parties. 
    With that said, if you, like me, are tired of party lines and political tribalism, then put on your thinking cap, crack open this book, and break free from the red and blue chains that have been systematically enslaving you.
