Sinopse

Honor-Based Commitments explores the critical role of promise-keeping and personal accountability in shaping societies and individual character. It examines the historical evolution of honor codes across different cultures, from ancient civilizations to modern times, revealing how societies have defined and enforced these principles. Readers will discover how upholding commitments builds trust, strengthens relationships, and fosters social stability, while broken promises erode these vital foundations. The book delves into the philosophical underpinnings of moral obligation, drawing from ethical frameworks like deontology and virtue ethics to understand why honoring commitments is considered a moral imperative. It demonstrates how adherence to, or violation of, promises has had significant consequences throughout history, shaping political and military strategies, impacting economic development, and creating ethical dilemmas. By integrating historical analysis with philosophical reflection, the book offers a nuanced exploration of the complexities inherent in fulfilling commitments. The book progresses systematically, beginning with core concepts and moving through case studies to demonstrate that a commitment to one's word is essential for a just and prosperous society and is key to personal well-being, especially in an era marked by cynicism and eroding trust. It provides a balanced perspective, acknowledging competing viewpoints and supporting claims with credible sources, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in history, ethics, and leadership.

    For two hundred years, British slave ships plied in the Middle Passage, taking African men, women, and children to their doom. Ending slavery in the mighty British Empire seemed like an impossible dream, but once William Wilberforce resolved to represent the abolitionists in Parliament, he would fight to the bitter end - for nearly half a century - to achieve that goal. Together with a community of dynamic reformers, Wilberforce struggled to rid his nation of evil and to give dignity and freedom to all people - slave and slave trader, poor and powerful. His example continues to inspire others to use their gifts and influence to do good against the odds.

    Lisa Bachman’s son, Justin, was sick, suffering, and broken. Lisa and her husband, Ron, had no idea how to heal, help, or fix him. His third suicide attempt, by the time he was eleven years old, was their final wake-up call. Although he survived, their family was left without a roadmap. They would start down a path through a maze, hit a wall, turn around, and begin again. Thankfully, with help, they found their way. Not only did they get through extraordinarily difficult times with a suicidal son, but he went on to start a nationwide nonprofit organization and become a motivational speaker who led more that 150 full-school assemblies for students in grades five through twelve in sixteen states—all before he turned eighteen.Mental health problems and the subsequent intolerance and isolation are some of the most prevalent, yet least discussed issues facing parents and kids today. Children and teens are over schedule, overstimulated, and dealing with challenges and questions that adults could never have imagined. Add in undiagnosed issues, willful ignorance, limited resources, refusal of the school to provide resources and abandonment from those believed to be a support system, and readers will get a glimpse of the obstacles the Bachman family had to overcome to navigate the first twelve years of their son’s life. “I wrote The Book We Wish We Had to share our triumphs but even more so, to share our struggles. By revealing our vulnerabilities and missteps, my hope is that readers will relate and become better able to understand that their experiences and feelings are normal as they find their way out of their maze.” Says Bachman, a mother of three grown children.The Book We Wish We Had addresses issues head-on with raw realism, humor, and hope as Bachman tells the story of how her family navigated their son Justin’s suicide attempts, medical, and mental illness. More than a memoir, this book is a resource that speaks truth to the pain that is so difficult to voice
