Principles of Responsible Governance

Sandeep Krishnamurthy

Sinossi

"Principles of Responsible Governance" explores the structures and processes designed to ensure accountability, transparency, responsiveness, rule of law, stability, equity, inclusiveness, empowerment, and broad-based participation in governance. We demonstrate how ethics can constrain improper behavior through high-profile case studies that connect readers to fundamental ethical questions. Themes of public interest, natural law, and rule of law provide a framework for these case studies, which include topics such as torture, impeachment, competence, electoral violations, and historical corruption.
We also highlight the responsibilities and policy formation of governments and their impact on the public. Ethics, social responsibility, leadership, and governance are terms often heard but rarely integrated into policies and cultures guiding behavior and decisions. Our book addresses this gap by offering a broad-based and integrated approach to responsible leadership and governance.
With insights into emerging areas requiring future attention, "Principles of Responsible Governance" provides leading thinking on these issues. This book is a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of ethical governance and its role in promoting social justice and equity.

Eyes on the Horizon - My Journey...

Balarama Holness

A former football champion’s engrossing personal story of spirituality and rebellion, and an inspiring call to action against systemic racism. 
The son of a Jamaican father and a Quebecois mother, Balarama Holness spent his earliest, most formative years on an ashram in West Virginia, learning the principles of equity and austerity, which would guide him through life. It wasn’t until he returned to Montreal at age ten with his mother and twin brother that he encountered virulent racism for the first time. Faced with a system that seemed stacked against him, Holness initially fell between the cracks. 
Eyes on the Horizon is Holness’s story of lifting himself up through the power of self-determination, spirituality and no small amount of rebellion to confront the systemic racism of his city and his country. He accomplished this first through football, going all the way to a Grey Cup championship, and later through activism and politics. 
Holness’s personal journey is connected to the social history of Canada, Quebec and the United States. Committed to reshaping society as we know it, he uses lessons from his own life to teach others about racism past and present, and to help people better understand how human beings should live and how to build a truly peaceful and just society for our children.

The Life of George Washington

Josephine Pollard

The Life story of a public man cannot help being to some extent the same thing as a history of the times in which he lived, and to the case of none does this remark apply with more force than to that of the "Father of his Country;" which very title shows the degree to which the personality of its bearer became identified with the public life of the nation. While a great deal of the space in this book, consequently, has had to be devoted to American Revolutionary History, it is hoped that excess in this direction has been avoided, and that the main purpose of the work will be attained, i.e. to give its young readers a distinct and vivid idea of the exalted character and priceless services of Washington, so far as these can be brought within the understanding of everyone.

Bonding with God - Attachment...

Victor Counted

In Bonding with God, Victor Counted uses the attachment framework to explore how we develop psychological bonds with God, what sustains those bonds, and what can erode them, leading to a crisis of faith. 
 
As we navigate questions of identity, meaning, and purpose, the role of faith in offering support and guidance becomes crucial. Yet the emotional and psychological aspects of religious experience are often overlooked. Counted fills this gap by showing how a caregiving faith can foster resilience and spiritual transformation. 
   
Bonding with God is a fascinating read that challenges traditional notions of religion and spirituality and invites us to examine our own connections with God. It is a valuable resource for mental health professionals and students training for ministry or caring professions who seek to understand how individuals form, maintain, and navigate emotional bonds with God. 
 
Counted's interdisciplinary approach, combining psychology and theology, makes this book an essential resource for anyone interested in the intricacies of human attachment and the power of faith to shape our lives.
