Sinossi

Saint-Exupéry might have had the Little Prince say that he liked the desert because that is where camels can hide out. Dubai is one of the seven Gulf Emirates and has become a high-tech avantgarde metropolis where superlatives are superfluous. Major wonders of architectural imagination and scale include the National Bank of Dubai, Clock Tower, Creek Side and Dubai Internet City. It also operates the world's largest man-made harbour in Jebel Ali, which features a major water desalination plant. It is the world's third largest trans-shipment hub after Hong Kong and Singapore. Nonetheless, Dubai preserves close ties to the past, based on Bedouin tradition, camel racing, falconry, pearl diving and the world of palm groves. The land thrived before the era of oil derricks and is now preparing to live again after they leave as it invests in higher education that heartily welcomes women. Time-honoured legends of Arab cavalries that swept across the deserts still survive in horse races that display equestrian tradition against a background of exclusive state-of-the-art driving machines: Welcome to this sneak preview of the 21st Century!

    Bringing Hope To Hearts That Are Raw And Fragile 
    Are you in an abusive relationship/marriage? 
    Or have you been able to make the break? 
    Do you feel stripped of your dignity and worth and your right to be safe? 
    Are you grappling with guilt and shame? 
    Are you seeking comfort and validation? 
    Are you in need of strength and support? 
    If so, then this book is for you! 
    Over the 20 year period that I was trapped in an abusive marriage, I left and reconciled with my husband many times before God gave me the courage to break free once and for all. 
    I wanted to find a book that would soothe my troubled spirit and show me clearly the Scriptures that speak of God's heart for hurting and abused women. I could not find such a book and so, with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, I wrote this 40-day devotional. This devotional aims to comfort and uplift the hurting heart of any woman who, like me, was overwhelmed by the pain of an abusive marriage and drowning in sorrow and regret, guilt and grief, shame, doubt and fear. 
    This beautiful book is Spirit-filled with bite sized morsels to savour and digest. It is a book which ministers to women who have found the courage to break free of the cycle of abuse and are now desperately needing validation for their decision. It is also a book which can help women still in abuse to know that there is a way forward through Jesus, the One who invites us to bathe in His true and tender love; and who brings us freedom and joy, overcoming and healing - and the peace that surpasses all understanding.

    Social conditioning is the process by which individuals learn and internalize the values, beliefs, and behaviors that are considered acceptable within their society. From an early age, individuals are taught what is considered “normal” by their families, communities, schools, and media. These lessons shape how people think, act, and perceive the world around them, often without conscious awareness. Social conditioning operates on a fundamental level to ensure conformity to societal norms, providing structure and predictability in behavior, but it also has profound effects on individual freedom and personal identity. 
    At its core, social conditioning involves the transmission of societal norms and expectations from one generation to the next. This transmission can occur through various channels, such as direct instruction, observation, and participation in social rituals. For example, a child may learn appropriate behavior through parental guidance, but they also learn by watching the actions of peers, teachers, and other authority figures. Over time, these external influences become internalized, and the individual’s beliefs and behaviors are shaped to align with societal expectations.

    Though born to a poor but pious family of ribbon weavers in in Saxony in 1762, Johann Gottlieb’s exceptional intelligence was apparent from an early age. Remarkably, from this humble background, he earned himself a respected place in the pantheon of late 18th and early 19th century German philosophers. That fact that he is placed between Kant and Hegel, yet still retains a significant and individual presence, says much about his work and personality. He became known, especially, for initiating the concept of ‘German idealism’ (linked with Romanticism and the revolutionary politics which emerged after the Enlightenment). In the 20th and 21st century, his importance and contribution to Western philosophy has been increasingly acknowledged.  
     
    There are two substantial lecture series and one essay stemming from his time in Berlin in Popular Works Volume 2: much of Fichte’s important work appeared initially in lectures. 
     
     The Characteristics of the Present Age, (1806) consists of 17 lectures in which Fichte presents his ‘speculative philosophy of history’. The series opens with ‘The Idea of Universal History’ in which he ‘divides earthly life into 5 Principal Epochs.’ Against this overview of history and culture, (including the state, civil and political freedom, science and religion) he develops his thesis with particular reference to his ‘present age’ – the time of Voltaire, Rousseau on the one hand and Lessing, Kant and Goethe on the other.  
     
    In The Way Towards The Blessed Life or The Doctrine Of Religion (1806) (11 lectures) Fichte considers the relationship between established religion and his particular view on ‘transcendental’ philosophy. His opening statement is ‘Life is Love; and hence Life and Blessedness are in themselves one and the same.’  He continues by examine metaphysics, ontology, mysticism, actual and apparent life, Christianity, and his Doctrine of Being.  
     
    The final work in this anthology is Outlines of the Doctrine of Knowledge (1810). It is a concise exposition of Fichte’s Wissenschaftslehre’ but in its strictly scientific form. It had an unusual provenance in that it was printed by Fichte at the conclusion of lectures as a form of a memorandum with 14 short sections. It opens with the question: ‘How this Knowledge can come into being, and what it is in its inward and essential Nature?’
