  Letters from Corsica, the Riviera, San Remo and Genoa, then from England — a Devonshire market town, Oxford, Windsor, the Yorkshire coast, the Lakes — written for the Hartford papers by an American who lived abroad and looked at both countries as a well-read visitor. Walter Phelps Dodge also wrote lives of Piers Gaveston and of Sir Richard Burton, and his eye for the history behind a place runs through the book. Fifty-eight plates by Canaletto and Guardi follow the same Italian journey, their Venetian canals and Roman ruins matching the scenes Dodge describes.

  Nothing Is Hidden - The...

  “Using old koans as a jumping off point, Magid brings a wonderfully unorthodox (and helpful) perspective to traditional Zen teachings. As both Zen teacher and psychoanalyst, Magid unmasks the psychological naivete that is still all too prevalent in contemporary Zen practice, and shows how it can lead to problems for students, and tangled relationships between teachers and students. In each insightful essay, Magid makes a journey from a short koan into far territories of the heart.”—Susan Moon, author of This Is Getting Old 
  In this inspiring and incisive offering, Barry Magid uses the language of modern psychology and psychotherapy to illuminate one of Buddhism's most powerful and often mysterious technologies: the Zen koan. What's more, Magid also uses the koans to expand upon the insights of psychology (especially self psychology and relational psychotherapy) and open for the reader new perspectives on the functioning of the human mind and heart. Nothing Is Hidden explores many rich themes, including facing impermanence and the inevitability of change, working skillfully with desire and attachment, and discovering when "surrender and submission" can be liberating and when they shade into emotional bypassing. With a sophisticated view of the rituals and teachings of traditional Buddhism, Magid helps us see how we sometimes subvert meditation into just another "curative fantasy" or make compassion into a form of masochism.

  Quiet confidence. Real impact. Lead as an introvert—your way. 
   
  As an introvert, you can become an influential, confident, and authentic leader, without pretending to be extroverted, without performing, and without draining your energy. You don’t need to be the loudest voice in the room to be a powerful leader. 
   
  Introverted professionals often bring deep thinking, strategic insight, and calm influence. Yet, our strengths can be overlooked in systems built around extroverted norms. Lead with Quiet Confidence reframes what leadership can look like for quiet, thoughtful, analytical people who want to increase our impact without compromising who we are. 
   
  Becoming a strong leader is not only about capability; it’s about how your capability is perceived. For introverts, this creates a unique challenge. We don’t lack for capability or value, but may feel insignificant because our significance is expressed in ways that often go unappreciated and underestimated in traditionally extroverted environments. 
   
  With more than thirty years of senior leadership experience, leadership coach and lifelong introvert Jennifer Marcou guides you to understand your introverted tendencies as powerful strategic assets. In Lead with Quiet Confidence, you’ll discover research-aligned tools for introverted leadership, quiet influence, and authentic confidence-building. 
   
  Your introverted strengths make you a powerful observer, a thoughtful listener and communicator, and a steady, calming presence in times of uncertainty. It is time to claim the quiet power you already possess and to lead with confidence. 
   
  Whether you’re an aspiring leader, a seasoned manager, a technical expert stepping into leadership, or an introvert who has been told you’re “too quiet,” this book helps you unlock meaningful impact on your own terms. 
   
  You don’t need to become louder. 
   
  You just need to lead as yourself—with quiet confidence.
