Sinossi

Elders Wisdom explores the profound influence of elders, prophets, and sages in shaping cultural values and historical understanding across societies. It argues that their teachings on wisdom, ethical behavior, and cultural knowledge remain relevant in today's complex world. The book highlights how these figures have acted as keepers of tradition, interpreters of the divine, and guides through societal challenges. For example, elders in indigenous communities serve as living libraries, safeguarding crucial information about their ancestors and environments, while prophets throughout religious history have inspired social movements and called for justice. The book examines the roles of these archetypes within a historical and religious context, using anthropological studies, historical accounts, and religious texts.

 
It's structured into three main sections: the elder as a repository of cultural knowledge, the prophet as a social and spiritual reformer, and the sage as a master of wisdom. Through diverse case studies and analyses, Elders Wisdom demonstrates the interconnectedness of these figures and their enduring impact on shaping human history and philosophical thought.

    In today’s world we live in a culture of truth suppression. This is true in representative democracies like the United States as well as full totalitarian dictatorships like Communist China.This book covers many areas of major lies like Global Warming, perverted doctrines taught in schools, Politics, News Suppression, Communist China, limitations in Spirituality, deficit spending, and problems with globalism.There are many different types of truth suppression and as much as we would like to think that we live in an advanced culture and world, this effort by different entities to suppress truth affects our lives negatively in many ways.The most direct effect is that we live in fear of the future of our world which is a big lie.This suppression also keeps us from fully realizing our spiritual natures and that we do have the ability to accomplish amazing things when we live with full honesty in our lives.I believe that individuals are closest to a state of happiness when they live their lives in truth. (See my book “A New Paradigm of Truth and Happiness” for more information.)There are actions we can take to correct this situation but they are mass actions which need many persons involved to have a real effect. A list of these actions are given later in this book.

    We communicate constantly, not just through words but through a rich tapestry of unspoken cues. From the subtle flicker of an eyebrow to the unconscious shift in posture, our bodies are constantly broadcasting messages, often revealing more than consciously intended. 
    This book serves as a guide to understanding this complex and fascinating world of nonverbal communication. We will embark on a journey to unlock the secrets hidden within human interaction.  
    We will explore the evolutionary basis of nonverbal communication, tracing its origins back to our primal ancestors and examining how these innate cues continue to shape our interactions today. 
    We will delve into the significant role of culture in shaping body language, understanding how societal norms and individual experiences influence our expression and interpretation of nonverbal signals. We will examine the anatomy of nonverbal cues in detail, providing a comprehensive overview of facial expressions, posture, gestures, proxemics (the use of space), and paralanguage (vocal cues), each with their own nuanced meanings and power to reveal emotions, intentions, and social dynamics. We'll investigate the art of integrating verbal and nonverbal cues to achieve a deeper understanding of communication, and learn to detect those inconsistencies that might signal deception or underlying emotions. Through practical exercises and real-world examples, you will hone your observational skills, and ability to spot subtle clues others miss. 
    The book goes beyond simply identifying individual cues, guiding you to integrate these observations into a holistic understanding of behavior, fostering enhanced empathy and providing insights into the motivations and feelings behind nonverbal expressions. 
    Ultimately, the knowledge within this book equips you to navigate the intricacies of human interaction with newfound confidence and understanding, enriching your life by fostering stronger and more meaningful relationships.

    This modern classic is "a tough, tender, bitter novel of a black girl struggling towards womanhood" in 1930s Harlem—with a foreword by James Baldwin (Publishers Weekly). 
     
     
     
    Depression-era Harlem is home for twelve-year-old Francie Coffin and her family, and it's both a place of refuge and the source of untold dangers for her and her poor, working class family. The beloved "daddy" of the title indeed becomes a number runner when he is unable to find legal work, and while one of Francie's brothers dreams of becoming a chemist, the other is already in a gang. Francie is a dreamer, too, but there are risks in everything from going to the movies to walking down the block, and her pragmatism eventually outweighs her hope; "We was all poor and black and apt to stay that way, and that was that." 
     
     
     
    First published in 1970, Daddy Was a Number Runner is one of the seminal novels of the black experience in America. The New York Times Book Review proclaimed it "a most important novel."
