Beschreibung

The "Art of War - Book Set" is an illustrious anthology that traverses centuries of strategic thought, armed with the profound musings of thirteen seminal contributors. This compendium underlines the universal and timeless nature of warfare, philosophy, and political strategy, as explored through the diverse insights of luminaries from different eras and regions. The collection weaves together varied approaches, from Eastern philosophies embodied by Confucius and Sun Tzu, to Western military strategies elucidated by Carl von Clausewitz and Napoleon Bonaparte. Each piece, while resonant with the unique voice of its originator, contributes to an overarching narrative that illuminates the complexities of conflict and power dynamics. The authors represented in this venerable collection span a wide spectrum of cultural and historical milieus, offering readers a rich tapestry of perspectives. The anthology draws from Eastern, Western, and indigenous strategic thoughts, including the tactical genius of the US Marine Corps and the philosophical depths of Kautilya's Arthashastra. These figures, cultivated in myriad contexts—be it the political astuteness of Machiavelli's Renaissance Italy or the revolutionary fervor of Ernesto Che Guevara—provide a pluralistic lens through which the art and ethos of warfare are dissected and understood. Together, their contributions underscore the anthology's mission to demystify war's enigmatic nature. Readers embarking on this collection are presented with an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in a diverse pool of strategic wisdom. Whether for academic purposes, personal insight, or historical curiosity, "The Art of War - Book Set" stands as an essential exploration of humanity's perennial encounter with conflict. With its wide-ranging perspectives and timeless lessons, this anthology not only educates but also invites reflection on the multitudinous aspects of power, leadership, and strategy, serving as a dynamic platform for dialogue across generations.

    Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalist
    A Comprehensive Look at Women Who Built the Early Church
    Women were there. For centuries, discussions of early Christianity have focused on male leaders in the church. But there is ample evidence right in the New Testament that women were actively involved in ministry, at the frontier of the gospel mission, and as respected leaders.
    Nijay Gupta calls us to bring these women out of the shadows by shining light on their many inspiring contributions to the planting, growth, and health of the first Christian churches. He sets the context by exploring the lives of first-century women and addressing common misconceptions, then focuses on the women leaders of the early churches as revealed in Paul's writings. We discover the major roles of people such as:
    
    - Phoebe, Paul's trusted coworker
    - Prisca, strategic leader and expert teacher
    - Junia, courageous apostle
    - Nympha, representative of countless lesser-known figures
    When we understand the world in which Jesus and his followers lived and what the New Testament actually attests about women in the churches, it becomes clear that women were active participants and trusted leaders all along. They were welcomed by Paul and other apostles, were equipped and trained for ministry leadership, instructed others, traveled long distances, were imprisoned—and once in a while became heroes and giants.
    The New Testament writers tell their stories. It's time for the church to retell them, again and again.

    The Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was a philosopher, mendicant, meditator, spiritual teacher, and religious leader who lived in Ancient India. He is revered as the founder of Buddhism. He taught for around forty five years and built a large following, both monastic and lay. His teaching is based on his insight into suffering and the end of such – the state called Nirvana.Prince Gautama was born into an aristocratic family but eventually joined the renounced order of life. After several years of mendicancy, meditation, and asceticism, he awakened to understand the workings of the cycle of rebirth and how it can be escaped. The Buddha then traveled widely teaching. He taught the middle way between sensual indulgence and severe asceticism. He taught a training of the mind that included self-restraint, and meditative practices such as mindfulness. The Buddha also critiqued the practices of Brahmin priests, such as animal sacrifice.Here is the illumined heart of his divine timeless teachings.
