Sinopse

"Lunar Beasts" explores the fascinating relationship between the moon and the creatures of our imagination, revealing how lunar symbolism reflects human culture. The book investigates the prevalence of moon mythology across history and cultures, focusing on how the moon has shaped our understanding of the world. Delving into cultural beliefs, the book examines how figures like werewolves and lunar deities embody the moon's transformative power and influence. For example, the werewolf archetype serves as a potent symbol of the untamed aspects of human nature under lunar influence. The book also analyzes lunar deities found in various religions, highlighting their roles in shaping creation myths and cosmological beliefs. By examining the creatures associated with the moon, "Lunar Beasts" provides insights into our evolving beliefs, values, and the human-nature relationship. The book progresses from an introduction to astronomical properties and early cultural interpretations to an exploration of werewolves, lunar deities, and other moon-influenced creatures, ultimately connecting these beings to broader themes of transformation and liminality.

    First Inaugural Address

    On January 20, 1981, Reagan began his first presidential inauguration address by thanking Carter for his “gracious cooperation in the transition process”. 
    Reagan notes “one of the worst sustained inflations in our national history. It distorts our economic decisions, penalizes thrift, and crushes the struggling young and the fixed-income elderly alike.” “In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.” 
    “For decades we have piled deficit upon deficit, mortgaging our future and our children's future for the temporary convenience of the present.” “It is my intention to curb the size and influence of the Federal establishment and to demand recognition of the distinction between the powers granted to the Federal Government and those reserved to the States or to the people.” 
    “If we look to the answer as to why for so many years we achieved so much, prospered as no other people on Earth, it was because here in this land we unleashed the energy and individual genius of man to a greater extent than has ever been done before.” “It is time to reawaken this industrial giant, to get government back within its means, and to lighten our punitive tax burden.” 
    “As for the enemies of freedom, … [w]e will maintain sufficient strength to prevail if need be, knowing that if we do so we have the best chance of never having to use that strength.” 
    “[T]ogether with God's help we can and will resolve the problems which now confront us. And after all, why shouldn't we believe that? We are Americans. God bless you, and thank you.

    Why do even great leadership books leave out the soft skills? 
     
     
     
    Probably because soft skills are not flashy. But soft skills are critical to graceful leadership, and you will find the stories and strategies to hone them, with this book. National Distinguished Principal and leadership advisor Jessica Cabeen understands the soft skills better than most. 
     
     
     
    In Lead with Grace Cabeen shows you how to seamlessly integrate authenticity, empathy, integrity, and the power of vulnerability into your daily work, turning you into someone who is leading young minds with grace and someone who will empower people around you. She helps you nurture relationships, enhance communication, manage boundaries, and provide the grace you need to effectively lean into your work, at school, home, or the office. 
     
     
     
    Great leaders, teachers, and parents are typically good at the hard skills: organization, guidelines, and management. Very few, though, are great at the soft skills. And even fewer really understand how to lead with grace. Now, you can be a great and graceful leader, who understands and leads with soft skills.

    A concise, accessible overview of pragmatism, the most influential school of American philosophical thought. 
     
     
     
    Pragmatism, America's homegrown philosophy, has been a major intellectual movement for over a century. Unlike its rivals, it reaches well beyond the confines of philosophy into concerns and disciplines as diverse as religion, politics, science, and culture. In this concise, engagingly written overview, John R. Shook describes pragmatism's origins, concepts, and continuing global relevance and appeal. With attention to the movement's original thinkers—Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, John Dewey, and George Herbert Mead—as well as its contemporary proponents, he explains how pragmatism thinks about what is real, what can be known, and what minds are doing. And because of pragmatism's far-reaching impact, Shook shows how its views on reality, truth, knowledge, and cognition coordinate with its approaches to agency, sociality, human nature, and personhood.
