Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - After a beautiful night spent with his wife of 24 years in Victoria, British Columbia, as dawn filters into their motel room, a man wakes with a start, feeling words flowing into him: the beginning of a book he promised to her long ago. He goes to the desk and begins writing in the dim light; but almost immediately the pen runs out. Not wanting to wake her by noisily searching for another pen, he gets back into bed, and lies awake for hours, thinking about what the book will be. Months later, on her birthday, he begins again, gathering all the old hand-written books he'd given to her during their courtship, and he writes the new book's prologue. Over the next nine months, he selects and arranges the old materials into a story of the sad man he was before she found him, the transformation her love brought about, and celebration of their wedding day and early wedded life. The night before their twenty-fifth anniversary, he meditates on their life together, their wondrous beginning, the years of sacrifice as they raised their children, promises he didn't keep, their life today, his hopes for renewal--but most of all: the endless beauty and strength of her love. Early the next morning, he presents the book to her: 'I Face My Love.'.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Several planes were smoking. I saw a plane from one of the groups take a direct hit, and go down. I saw no parachutes. I was trying to make myself as small as possible. My steel helmet was pulled down over most of my face. I couldn't see much, but I didn't have to worry about the Germans in all this flak.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Europe in the Cold War years was a dangerous place for Harold Bronson and his buddies, draftees commandeered into espionage and counterintelligence. Their low echelon escapades take them to Berlin, Ulm, the South of France, and Zurich. Bronson chooses this time of his life to explore a personal coming out, creating secrets within secrets in a disapproving military. In his off-time, Bronson paints portraits of the other denizens of Schloss Issel, earning money for trips and adventures to Paris and Nice. Always on the edge of life, he taunts the higher-ups with a light-hearted acceptance of life in the spy world of 1957. Real danger is further off from his circle at the Schloss, but it is an insistent melody they can always hear.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - SUSTAINABILITY AND QUALITY OF LIFE is a scholarly anthology edited by Jack Lee, Ph.D. (ISBN-13: 978-0-9743472-1-9). HERE IS A SUMMARY OF THE ANTHOLOGY (WRITTEN BY THE EDITOR, DR. JACK LEE): Some scholars suggest we should live a sustainable life. But what is 'sustainability' We need to think about sustainability deeply and broadly. In this anthology, I provide a forum for doing this. Philosophy (e.g., ontology and ethics) is very important. We also need to bring together natural sciences, education, sociology, law and other disciplines. Environmental issues command a multi-disciplinary approach. I am especially proud to include an environmental philosophy paper written by the brilliant young Taiwanese mountaineer Allen Yu before he died, of pollution-related leukemia. I hope this anthology can help us to re-think our engagement with the natural world. HERE IS AN ABSTRACT OF THE BOOK: Today we face serious environmental problems which force us to re-examine our way of life. The consensus scholarly response is to urge humanity to live sustainable lives. This suggestion is appealing as a slogan but resides in academic consciousness largely unexamined as a concept. This anthology gathers philosophers and ethicists together with experts and practitioners from many other disciplines and backgrounds to examine the question: what is sustainability KEYWORDS: sustainability, intrinsic value, ecosystem, animal, human species, Confucianism, environment, obligations to the future, anthropocentrism, global warming.
