  Pragmatism - Philosophy and...

  Pragmatism is a philosophy that emphasizes the practical application of ideas by focusing on their consequences and real-world outcomes. Rooted in the belief that thought should be guided by experience, pragmatism challenges the notion of abstract, detached theorizing. Rather than searching for eternal truths or fixed principles, pragmatists argue that the value of ideas is measured by their usefulness in addressing human needs and solving practical problems. This approach seeks to bridge the gap between philosophy and everyday life, transforming ideas into action. 
  At the heart of pragmatism lies the concept of truth, which is not seen as an abstract, objective reality but as something that emerges through interaction with the world. For pragmatists like Charles Peirce and William James, truth is dynamic and evolves based on what works in practice. Ideas and beliefs are continuously tested, refined, and adjusted according to their ability to produce positive outcomes in human experience. Truth, then, becomes a process of inquiry, always in the making and never static. 
  The philosophy of pragmatism is also deeply concerned with the connection between thought and action. It suggests that knowledge is not just something to be passively absorbed, but a tool to be actively employed in solving problems. This perspective challenges traditional philosophies that prioritize theory over practice and encourages individuals to test their ideas in real-world contexts. Whether in science, ethics, politics, or personal life, pragmatism urges a philosophy that is not only reflective but also responsive to the ever-changing circumstances of human existence.

  With Her Own Hands - Women...

  Knitting, sewing, embroidery, quilting―throughout history, these and other forms of textile work have often been dismissed as merely "women's work" and attached to ideas of domesticity and obedience. Yet, as psychologist and avid knitter Nicole Nehrig explores in this captivating book, textile work has often been a way for women to exercise power. When their voices were silenced and other avenues were closed off to them, women used the tools they had―often a needle and thread―to seek freedom. 
   
  With Her Own Hands brings together remarkable stories of women who have used textiles as a means of liberation, from an eighteenth-century Quaker boarding school that used embroidered samplers to teach girls math and geography to the Quechua weavers working to preserve and revive Incan traditions today, and from the Miao women of southern China who, in the absence of a written language, pass down their histories in elaborate "story cloths" to a midcentury British women's postal art exchange. Textiles have been a way for women to explore their intellectual capacities, seek economic independence, create community, process traumas, and convey powerful messages of self-expression and political protest. 
   
  Heartfelt and deeply moving, With Her Own Hands is a celebration of women who have woven their own stories―and a testament to their resilience.

  Dr Beare's Daughter - Growing Up...

  ". . . brutally honest . . . a compelling work. GET IT" -Kirkus Reviews 
   "Moving story of an adopted daughter's search for her own voice." -Booklife 
  "Well-written and poignant . . . engaging. Feelings and experiences to which many adoptees can relate." 
  -Betsie Norris, Founder and Executive Director, Adoption Network Cleveland 
  In 1947, in Celina, Ohio, Dr. Ralph Beare and his wife, Lou, childless and in their early forties, adopted a four-and-a-half-month-old orphan. “Janice” knew she was adopted, because her mommy read her a book about how the Beare's chose her out of a Home. "We chose you, but we love you as if you were our own." However, her mother never seemed to forget she was adopted, especially on Mother’s Day, when she couldn’t look at Janice without crying. 
  Janice learned that most grown-ups in town knew her as "Dr. Beare's Daughter." Her daddy took her everywhere and people stopped to stoop down and tell her how he had saved their lives.  
  With her red hair and freckles, Janice didn't look like her dark-haired parents. Her struggle to become that elusive golden child that she imagined they really wanted came with the erasure of her own identity. Still, there was a small voice, deep inside her, that popped up at the most inconvenient times, saying, "I'm here." Try as she might to silence it, her true self often slipped out to take charge, and then there was trouble.
