Having or Being

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In a world obsessed with material possessions and endless striving, this book offers a profound and transformative perspective on the human condition. Drawing inspiration from Erich Fromm's seminal work, To Have or to Be?, it delves into the dichotomy between having and being, revealing the profound impact it has on our personal lives, relationships, and society as a whole.

Through thought-provoking insights and real-life examples, this book explores the illusion of happiness through material possessions, the tyranny of consumerism, and the impact of our choices on society. It challenges us to question the dominant cultural narrative that equates success with accumulation and external validation, and instead embrace a life of authenticity, love, and meaningful connection.

With wisdom and compassion, the book guides readers on a journey of self-discovery, helping them to understand the obstacles that hinder their ability to fully embrace being, such as the fear of change, the pull of conformity, and the distractions of modern life. It also provides practical tools and strategies for cultivating a life of being, including embracing simplicity, practicing mindfulness, connecting with nature, and serving others.

The book draws inspiration from a diverse range of sources, including philosophy, psychology, spirituality, and personal narratives, to paint a vivid picture of what it means to truly be human. It offers a vision of a world where people are empowered to live authentically, connect deeply with themselves and others, and contribute to a more just and sustainable society.

Whether you are seeking greater happiness, fulfillment, or simply a deeper understanding of yourself and the world around you, this book will guide you on a transformative journey of self-discovery. It is an invitation to let go of the illusion of having and embrace the power of being.

Ultimately, this book is a call to action, a reminder that we have the power to choose a life of meaning and purpose, a life that is truly worth living. It is a book that will challenge your assumptions, inspire your thinking, and empower you to create a life that is both fulfilling and sustainable.

Richard Wurmbrand

Throughout the Communist world, the teachings of the Atheist's Handbook held supreme authority.

Chained Birds - A Crimemoir

Carla Conti

Chained Birds: A Crimemoir is an author-narrated studio production of Carla Conti's award-winning true crime memoir and named 2025's Best Crimemoir by AudioBookReviewer.com. 
  
FROM THE BACK COVER 
After three years in Europe, former journalist Carla Conti just wanted to settle her family into the suburbs of Philadelphia. But her high school friend Scott Powell, a lawyer handling a brutal prison stabbing case, needed a favor. Before she knew it, Carla became part of the defense team and was mired in the terrifying world of federal prison gangs, penal abuse, and corruption.  
  
Then, when she agreed to write a tell-all book on the violent machinations behind the court case—with Scott’s client as an inside source—the stakes turned deadly. Two different prison gangs issued “hit orders” against the prisoner she and Scott now considered a friend, and the journalist and defense attorney were imperiled by association. 
  
CHAINED BIRDS: A CRIMEMOIR is the story of Carla’s 10-year journey to advocate for federal inmate Kevin Sanders and help him re-enter society after prison. But the mission came at a cost as Carla struggled to balance her own, Scott’s, and Kevin’s safety while writing an exposé on the horrific conditions that led to the shutdown of an experimental prison program in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. 
  
Part investigative thriller, part raw memoir, CHAINED BIRDS is a gripping exposé of systemic injustice and a powerful reminder of the resilience it takes to uncover the truth.
