Beschreibung

Native American Warriors examines the fighting techniques of the various tribes that fought both among themselves and the European settlers across what would become the USA and Canada. Not one society, but many different tribes with different ways of life, the book explores the weaponry, equipment, armour and how the Native Americans understood warfare very differently from the European settlers. Experienced in skirmishing, guerrilla warfare and in using stealth, Native Americans saw their forms of warfare change drastically with the introduction from Europe of the horse, gunpowder and firearms. Arranged by broad tribal areas from Apache to Tlingit, the book highlights the differences in the tribes’ approaches to warfare. Also addressed are their spiritual beliefs, social structures, and major battles both among the tribes and against the Spanish, French, British and the United States from the first conquistadores in the early 16th century to the final battles in the 1890s. Beautifully presented with 200 colour and black-&-white photographs and artworks, Native American Warriors is the essential guide for any enthusiast of the military history of North America.

    “No other researcher has been able to transmit to the rest of us the true meaning and impact of near-death phenomena for the planet.” —Bruce Greyson, MD, bestselling author of After   “A major contribution that offers a wealth of case materials together with balanced and insightful commentary.” —Raymond A. Moody, PhD, bestselling author of Life After Life   While providing many remarkable accounts of near-death experiences (NDEs), Lessons from the Light is much more than an inspiring collection of NDEs. In clear language, the practical lessons for living and dying are to be found from the study of these experiences. Written by one of the foremost authorities on NDEs, Lessons from the Light is a book for those looking to gain knowledge and wisdom to enhance their own lives by incorporating the insights stemming from what many people have come to believe is the ultimate spiritual experience.   Although Lessons from the Light recounts many moving stories of NDEs, it is not just another book filled with inspiring testimonies—it includes helpful guidance and practical exercises concerning how readers can make use of this knowledge to live with greater self-insight, self-compassion and concern for others, as well as be better prepared for death, dying, and bereavement. Readers can easily apply what they have learned to their own lives and absorb and internalize these lessons from the Light in such a way as to lead to deep personal and spiritual transformation.   This edition replaces the previous edition (ISBN 978-1-930491-11-3) and contains a new postscript by the author.

    The Boys of ’67 and the War They Left Behind 
    The experience of the Vietnam War is almost impossible to grasp—the fear, smell, pain, and camaraderie. Boys were turned into men, men were transformed into soldiers, and then from soldiers to warriors. 
    These warriors had wives who shared in their transformations. Some marriages were strengthened, while for others men and their families were left emotionally and spiritually battered for years to come. 
    Focusing in on a singular company’s experience of war and its eventual homecoming, Andrew Wiest discusses the shared experience of combat and both the darkness and resiliency of war’s aftermath.

    In this 2024 conversation with Travis Glen Sebera, Schwartz explores what the Internal Family Systems [IFS] model encompasses and how healing our own inner world can create ripples of compassion that extend from ourselves to our communities. These internal parts of the self can debilitate us with paralyzing fear, shame, feelings of not being good enough, and other enfeebling influences. Schwartz describes the goal of IFS is to help the internal parts of the self to transform from their extreme states into who they're designed to be. He gives several examples of how he works with people such as care-givers who also become incapacitated by arthritis, or highly driven corporate executives who are overly dependent on achieving goals, as well as working with those who suffer from shame. He acknowledges that these parts are neither good nor bad and each can have wonderful qualities. His work is to encourage people to listen to these parts with spaciousness and personal curiosity so as to ultimately live a more balanced life. 
    Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D. is the creator of the therapeutic model known as Internal Family Systems [IFS] and founder of the IFS Institute which offers training for professionals and the general public. Formerly an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Illinois at Chicago and later at Northwestern University, he is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School. He is the author of many books including:No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma, and Restoring Wholeness with The Internal Family Systems Model (Sounds True 2021)

    Earth The Improbable Utopia

    Imagine a world where Heaven on Earth isn’t just a lofty ideal or a cosmic joke, but a tangible reality—one within our grasp. 
    Earth, The Improbable Utopia dares to explore this possibility, challenging the notion that our future is destined to be as bleak as our present. 
    Written from a spiritual perspective grounded in human experience rather than doctrine, the book approaches humanity’s crisis not only as a social or political failure, but as a deeper disconnect—from meaning, from purpose, and from ourselves. 
    In a world where humanity seems trapped in a relentless cycle of destruction and despair, author R. J. Fidalgo argues that we are the architects of our reality. Yet, despite overwhelming odds, a utopian future is not just a distant mirage—it’s a genuine possibility when inner transformation is given the same importance as external change. 
    This thought-provoking book delves into the heart of our collective existence, examining cultures, religions, traditions, and governments from across the globe. Through a blend of critical analysis and spiritual reflection, it confronts the flaws in our societies while illuminating timeless ideas and practices that point toward a more conscious and compassionate way of living. 
    Unlike exhaustive treatises or academic analyses, Earth, The Improbable Utopia is a book that sparks reflection and inspires action. Rather than dictating solutions, it invites readers into a contemplative dialogue—encouraging personal responsibility, awareness, and participation in shaping a better future. 
    A utopia can only emerge through shared effort and an awakened sense of responsibility. This is a book that seeks not to lecture, but to inspire—challenging you to imagine, reflect, and contribute to the extraordinary journey toward a better world, one rooted not only in systems and structures, but in spirit itself.
