  Evangelical Christians are active across all spheres of intellectual and public life today. But a disconnect remains: the work they produce too often fails to inform their broader communities. In the midst of a divisive culture and a related crisis within evangelicalism, public intellectuals speaking from an evangelical perspective have a critical role to play—within the church and beyond. What does it look like to embrace such a vocation out of a commitment to the common good?
  Public Intellectuals and the Common Good draws together world-class scholars and practitioners to cast a vision for intellectuals who promote human flourishing. Representing various roles in the church, higher education, journalism, and the nonprofit sector, contributors reflect theologically on their work and assess current challenges and opportunities. What historically well-defined qualities of public intellectuals should be adopted now? What qualities should be jettisoned or reimagined?
  Public intellectuals are mediators—understanding and then articulating truth amid the complex realities of our world. The conversations represented in this book celebrate and provide guidance for those who through careful thinking, writing, speaking, and innovation cultivate the good of their communities.

  Do you know one of these men?The catch-me-if-you-can lover . . .Phil's romantic and passionate one minute, distant and cold the next.The deviously manipulative coworker or boss . . .Jack denies resenting Nora's rapid rise in the company, but when they're assigned to work together on a project, he undermines her.The obstructionist, procrastinating husband . . .Bob keeps telling his wife he'll finish the painting job he began years ago, but he never seems to get around to it.These are all classic examples of the passive aggressive man. This personality syndrome—in which hostility wears a mask of passivity—is currently the number one source of men's problems in relationships and on the job. In Living with the Passive Aggressive Man, Scott Wetzler draws upon numerous case histories from his own practice to explain how and why the passive aggressive man thinks, feels, and acts the way he does.

  The object of this book is to point out the most characteristic practical features of the federal system. Taking Congress as the central and predominant power of the system, its object is to illustrate everything Congressional. Everybody has seen, and critics without number have said, that our form of national government is singular, possessing a character altogether its own; but there is abundant evidence that very few have seen just wherein it differs most essentially from the other governments of the world. There have been and are other federal systems quite similar, and scarcely any legislative or administrative principle of our Constitution was young even when that Constitution was framed.

  Book 1: In this book are all the techniques you need to be a critical, smarter thinker. Intelligence can be developed and trained. Critical thinking is a skill many people have forsaken. They follow the masses, the media, the trends, or some role model they admire. However, when you think outside of the box and use pure logic to calculate your decisions, your life can be happier, more fulfilling, and more risk-free.  
  Book 2: Do you want to learn more faster? You’ve come to the right place. There are so many people in this world who spend hours, days, or years learning the same thing others learn 10 times faster. It’s a waste of time. Let’s face it. We can do better. You may be a genius without realizing it. The problem is that most people don’t use the full capacity of their brain. And most of them don’t even use the smallest part. But do not despair. There is hope for everyone. All you have to do is learn how to do better. 
  Book 3: You may have heard of people who remember everything just by glancing at it: names, faces, numbers, or information. Well, it’s not unrealistic to develop a memory like that yourself. Our brain is like a storage unit - something like a camera storage unit. Data are constantly moving, but only some information sticks. In this audiobook, you’ll learn some secret tips and tricks to enhance your memory.  
  Book 4: You will be amazed at the things you’ll hear. In this guide, the author made sure that all the quick tricks and long-term strategies that work are listed. You will hear about various topics that cover the most important things you should do to improve your memory.
