Wilderness Ways - Enriched edition

William J. Long

Beschreibung

In "Wilderness Ways," William J. Long deftly explores the intricate relationship between humans and the untamed world, weaving together vivid narratives with practical wisdom rooted in nature's realities. The book is characterized by its lyrical prose and rich descriptive passages that immerse the reader in the myriad landscapes of the wilderness. Long employs an observational style that bridges personal reflection and natural history, ensuring that the text resonates with both literary aficionados and outdoor enthusiasts. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, a time when nature was both a refuge and a frontier, Long's work reflects a burgeoning appreciation for environmentalism and the natural world. William J. Long was a prominent naturalist, writer, and educator whose passion for the wilderness was ignited during his childhood in New England. Deeply influenced by Transcendentalist ideals and the early conservation movement, his experiences camping, fishing, and observing wildlife imbued him with a profound respect for nature. Long's reflections in "Wilderness Ways" articulate a yearning for simplicity and a recognition of humanity's place within the ecosystem, seamlessly merging personal anecdotes with broader philosophical inquiries into existence. "Wilderness Ways" is an essential read for those seeking a deeper understanding of their connection to the natural world. With its blend of artistry and insight, Long's work inspires readers to reflect on their relationship with nature while appreciating the beauty and complexity of the wilderness. This book serves as both a guide and an invitation to embrace the tranquility and wisdom found within the untamed spaces of our planet.

Every Storm Runs Out of Rain -...

Amy Moudy Comeau

A week-by-week account of the COVID-19 pandemic through the eyes of a different kind of health care front line worker—a marketing leader—at one of the nation’s and world’s leading health care systems.  
"This candid collection of daily emails from a health industry insider offers a unique glimpse at the daily realities of working during Covid. From pandemic fatigue to staycations and Thanksgivings on Zoom, these stories will take you back to a time you might want to forget. Despite the understandable urge to leave the pandemic behind, Comeau proves that sometimes looking back can not only be therapeutic ... it might offer exactly the perspective we all need to continue to move forward too."  
- Rohit Bhargava, WSJ Bestselling Author of Non-Obvious Thinking + Non-Obvious Megatrends 
During the early stages of coronavirus, Amy Moudy Comeau, MBA, an award-winning and acclaimed marketing executive, began writing weekly emails to her Emory Healthcare marketing team every Friday, as a form of encouragement and support to get them through eight weeks of shelter-in-place, which turned into a three-year pandemic. 
Amy’s Friday emails became a weekly tradition, providing support and even levity during this transformational time. Years later, these time-stamped entries, along with present-day commentary from the author giving insight and hindsight reflections on the pandemic, leadership, self-care and marketing, provide a unique snapshot back into those “unprecedented” days of the pandemic.  
Every Storm Runs Out of Rain gives insightful lessons on leadership and resilience, and finding the silver lining in the middle of a crisis.
