The Hands That Refuse to Hate - Ordinary People Extraordinary Peace

Natalie G. Turner

Summary

In a world where conflict dominates headlines and division seems inevitable, The Hands That Refuse to Hate offers a deeply human alternative. Through a powerful blend of storytelling, research, and personal testimony, this book explores how everyday people in the shadow of war — Israelis and Iranians, mothers and migrants, believers and doubters — defy political hostility and cultural pressure to build moments of unexpected peace.
 
Natalie G. Turner takes readers on a journey beyond borders and propaganda to discover the quiet strength of those who choose empathy over enmity. From whispered prayers shared in airport corners to childhood friendships that survived national divides, these stories illustrate how connection persists in even the harshest conditions. Each chapter dissects a different form of resistance — not with weapons, but with kindness, conviction, and courage.
 
This is not a book about heroes in suits or peace accords crafted behind closed doors. It’s about the hands that pass bread instead of grenades, the eyes that hold compassion when words fail, and the people who prove that seeing the “enemy” as human is the first step toward healing.
 
Whether you’re a reader of current affairs, global culture, or human resilience, The Hands That Refuse to Hate delivers a timely and necessary message: peace doesn’t begin with power — it begins with people.

The Bond of the Furthest Apart -...

Sharon Cameron

In the French filmmaker Robert Bresson’s cinematography, the linkage of fragmented, dissimilar images challenges our assumption that we know either what things are in themselves or the infinite ways in which they are entangled. The “bond” of Sharon Cameron’s title refers to the astonishing connections found both within Bresson’s films and across literary works by Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, and Kafka, whose visionary rethinkings of experience are akin to Bresson’s in their resistance to all forms of abstraction and classification that segregate aspects of reality.  Whether exploring Bresson’s efforts to reassess the limits of human reason and will, Dostoevsky’s subversions of Christian conventions, Tolstoy’s incompatible beliefs about death, or Kafka’s focus on creatures neither human nor animal, Cameron illuminates how the repeated juxtaposition of disparate, even antithetical, phenomena carves out new approaches to defining the essence of being, one where the very nature of fixed categories is brought into question. An innovative look at a classic French auteur and three giants of European literature, The Bond of the Furthest Apart will interest scholars of literature, film, ethics, aesthetics, and anyone drawn to an experimental venture in critical thought.

Finding Genius: Homeschooling:...

Richard Jacobs

Homeschooling your children can be a compelling experience that will shape them in powerful and lasting ways. It’s a choice that allows you to create a learning environment where your children feel safe, respected, encouraged, and valued. It also allows them to explore their interests more deeply while enabling you to introduce them to subjects of your choosing and safeguard them from the biases of the public school system. 
They will reliably receive the one-on-one attention they deserve, which means they’ll never feel left behind or too far ahead (and aimless or bored as a result).  
With scheduling flexibility comes the freedom to take your kids on vacations where and when you want to, as well as ensure they get the quantity and quality of sleep essential to healthy development, energy levels, and overall well-being.  
For these reasons (and even more not covered in this book), I can confidently say that homeschooling is a vastly superior option for most people.  
If you’re undecided about the best decision for your family, know that you want to homeschool but are feeling intimidated, or want to learn more about the benefits of the homeschooling lifestyle, I wholeheartedly encourage you to keep learning and researching.  
Remember that when it comes to homeschooling, what’s right for your family might not be for another… the lessons, topics, schedule, and style are yours to choose; they can be tailored to meet the needs, goals, and beliefs of your beautifully unique family.

The Men Who Killed the Luftwaffe...

Jay A Stout

San Diego Book Award Winner: “An excellent overview of the U.S. Army Air Forces’ war against Nazi Germany.” —Barrett Tillman, author of Whirlwind: The Air War Against Japan 1942–1945  Bronze medalist, Military Writers Society of America   When World War II began, the U.S. Army Air Corps numbered only forty-five thousand men and a few thousand aircraft—hardly enough to defend the United States, let alone defeat Germany’s Luftwaffe, whose state-of-the-art aircraft and battle-seasoned pilots stood ready to batter any attackers. Yet by the war’s end, the Luftwaffe had been crushed, and the U.S. Army Air Forces, successor to the Air Corps, had delivered the decisive blows. This book tells the story of that striking transformation—one of the marvels of modern warfare—while simultaneously thrusting readers into whirling, heart-pounding accounts of aerial combat.   Britain’s Royal Air Force had been just barely holding the line, and the might of the United States was needed to turn the tide. Almost from scratch, the US built an air force of more than two million men. Thanks to the visionary leadership of Henry “Hap” Arnold, Carl “Tooey” Spaatz, Ira Eaker, James Doolittle, and others, the USAAF assembled a well-trained and superbly equipped force unlike any ever fielded. And thanks to the brave Americans who crewed, maintained, and supported the aircraft, the USAAF annihilated the Luftwaffe, pounding targets deep inside Germany and elsewhere. A stirring tribute to these men as well as an engaging work of history, The Men Who Killed the Luftwaffe vividly describes World War II in the skies above Europe—and captures the personalities of the men who won it, whether on the ground or in the air.
