Описание:
Teen Spirit offers a novel and provocative perspective on how we came to be living in an age of political immaturity and social turmoil. Award-winning author Paul Howe argues it's because a teenage mentality has slowly gripped the adult world.
Howe contends that many features of how we live today—some regrettable, others beneficial—can be traced to the emergence of a more defined adolescent stage of life in the early twentieth century, when young people started spending their formative, developmental years with peers, particularly in formal school settings. He shows how adolescent qualities have slowly seeped upward, where they have gradually reshaped the norms and habits of adulthood. The effects over the long haul, Howe contends, have been profound, in both the private realm and in the public arena of political, economic, and social interaction. Our teenage traits remain part of us as we move into adulthood, so much so that some now need instruction manuals for adulting.
Teen Spirit challenges our assumptions about the boundaries between adolescence and adulthood. Yet despite a cultural system that seems to be built on the ethos of Generation Me, it's not all bad. In fact, there has been an equally impressive rise in creativity, diversity, and tolerance within society: all traits stemming from core components of the adolescent character. Howe's bold and suggestive approach to analyzing the teen in all of us helps make sense of the impulsivity driving society and encourages us to think anew about civic reengagement.

Описание: This five-part book addresses the basics of strokes; an east-west comparison of stroke rehabilitation between Japan and the US, advice and help for the primary caregivers and families of stroke survivors, and lessons on how to improve systems of care and rehabilitation.
In the pages of this book, you will meet 35 individuals whose unique adventures went further than the token tourist trap or destinations highlighted on a map. These are the Adventurous Spirits that took venturing to a whole new level.
Their quests come in all shapes and sizes. Some of them climbed to the top of a mountain while others swam with the sharks, yet all of them took a detour from the charted path to discover and uncover something more. They wanted a deeper meaning, more clarity and find a part of themselves that felt lost. Journeying outward became a portal inward to a magical, personal land. Just like Aladdin discovering the Cave of Wonders, home to the most extraordinary treasures, they unearthed the priceless gifts of peace, realizations and the greatest of all -- finding one's Self.
The richest experience is exploring and discovering who you are. Adventure catapults your thinking, awakens your spirit, tantalizes your senses and frees your soul. Every word in this book was crafted with that idea...IGNITING you to discover exactly who you want to be.
Описание: From the PrefaceIT WAS MANY YEARS AGO when I first "stumbled" across a book penned by Myron S. Augsburger. Though our roots in different church traditions, I soon discovered through his writings that he believed in "the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints" Jude 1:3), was a convinced Evangelical, exuded a contagious love for the Lord Jesus Christ, and honored the Holy Spirit throughout his writings. One cannot read after Augsburger long before realizing that he is a man of God, possessed of a keen mind and a warm heart. By means of both his formal education obtained the classroom, and his Christ-shaped heart and conscience formed by Word and Spirit, Augsburger has written with penetrating insight, informed conviction, and spiritual wisdom and understanding. In addition to ministering effectively in his own Anabaptist tradition, God has given to Dr. Augsburger a wider ministry to much of the church. The Lord expanded his fellowship years ago to embrace all who call Jesus Lord and walk in fellowship with Him. This willingness to fellowship and serve alongside other Evangelicals is evidenced by the fact that Billy Graham (a Baptist) wrote the Foreword to one of his books, and Leighton Ford (son-in-law to Billy Graham and a Presbyterian) another.Some Christians write because they want to be published. Some Christians write because they want to earn money (good luck ). A few men and women of God write because they have something to say. Dr. Augsburger falls into the latter category: he has something to say about the Holy Spirit that the church needs to hear.While "Convicted & Transformed" (originally titled, Quench Not the Spirit) was first published over fifty years ago, it remains a relevant and vibrant voice to all who will listen. In many respects, the Holy Spirit is the ignored member of the Triune God in the contemporary church. Furthermore, in places where the Spirit is not ignored, His person and ministries are often misunderstood, resulting in much error and confusion.The reader who is eager to learn about the Christian's relationship to the Holy Spirit will discover in this volume a biblically sound approach, as well as a challenge to one's conscience. "Convicted & Transformed" cannot be seriously read without often stopping to lift the heart to God, seeking His understanding and grace.The Christian world is both blessed and indebted to those men and women of faith, who stimulate us to sink our roots deeper into the truth and wisdom of God. I thank God for giving Myron S. Augsburger to Christ's church, and I think you will too after reading this book about the Christian's relationship to the Third Person of the Holy Trinity.Ralph I.

Описание: Fictions of Youth is a comprehensive examination of adolescence as an aesthetic, sociological, and ideological category in Pier Paolo Pasolini’s prose, poetry, and cinema. Simona Bondavalli’s book explores the multiple ways in which youth, real and imagined, shaped Pasolini’s poetics and critical positions and shows how Pasolini’s works became the basis for representations of contemporary young people, particularly Italians. From Pasolini’s own coming of age under Fascism in the 1940s to the consumer capitalism of the 1970s, youth stood for innocence, vitality, and rebellion. Pasolini’s representations of youth reflected and shaped those ideas. Offering a systematic treatment of youth and adolescence within Pasolini’s eclectic body of work, Fictions of Youth provides both a broad overview of the changing nature of youth within Italian modernity and an in-depth study of Pasolini’s significant contribution to that transformation.
