Solteros señalados: cómo son estereotipados, estigmatizados e ignorados y aún son felices
by Bella DePauloSolteros señalados estableció a Bella DePaulo como la "principal intelectual y escritora de Estados Unidos sobre la experiencia de ser soltero". Utiliza la investigación científica, la cultura popular, y las experiencias de personas solteras para revelar las historias de éxito jamás contadas de personas solteras. Sí, es cierto que los solteros son estereotipados y estigmatizados. Pero no son víctimas. La autora, quien posee un doctorado en Harvard, observa los estudios sobre los solteros y descubre que los estereotipos, como por ejemplo, que son infelices, solitarios y egoístas, son sólo mitos. Solteros señalados incluye capítulos sobre mujeres, hombres, padres y ancianos solteros. También hay capítulos en los que se desacreditan varios mitos sobre ellos. En la introducción, DePaulo describe el lugar importante del soltero en la sociedad contemporánea. Casi la mitad de los estadounidenses adultos no están casados (son divorciados, viudos o siempre han sido solteros) y la edad en la que la gente se casa (entre los que lo hacen) ha estado aumentando casi cada año. Solteros señalados ha sido analizado en los periódicos y revistas más prestigiosos de los Estados Unidos y alrededor del mundo. Bella DePaulo ha aparecido en televisión nacional e internacional y en programas de radio. (Para ver su biografía y la sección de medios, entre a este link http://belladepaulo.com/singles-research-and-writing/#5.) Los capítulos de Solteros señalados a menudo son asignados en los cursos universitarios. El libro fue escrito con los altos estándares de una científica social consumada, y el ingenio de una buena escritora. The Washington Post lo describió como una “diatriba hilarante con una investigación excepcional a favor de vivir bien siendo soltero.” Otro de los periódicos principales comentó, "Fascinante. Este libro no podría haber llegado en un mejor momento. Por más que la adulación social de la pareja discrimine
A Faith for the Generations: How Collegiate Experience Impacts Faith
by Timothy W. Hermann Kirsten D. Tenhaken Hannah M. Adderley Morgan K. Morris"The reshaping of our cultural and social landscape continues, creating unprecedented opportunities. But one question remains: Is a life of faith worth embracing?A Faith for the Generations explains how a Christian campus, a classroom, or even a simple mentoring relationship can flourish and serve in passing on faith to today's emerging adults.The essays included in this monograph cover a variety of topics related to the theme originally addressed at the 2014 Taylor University Higher Education Symposium: ""A Faith for the Generations: How Collegiate Experience Impacts Faith."" After this brief introductory chapter, the monograph—as did the symposium—begins with an interview with Christian Smith, previously noted as a key voice in the current dialogue regarding emerging adult spirituality. This interview is not only insightful, but it also creates an excellent context for what follows in subsequent chapters."

"Bad News": The Turbulent Life of Marvin Barnes, Pro Basketball's Original Renegade
by Mike Carey Bob CostasMarvin "Bad News" Barnes was considered a future Hall of Fame basketball player before he even graduated from college. A standout at Providence College, where he averaged 20.7 points and 17.9 rebounds per game, he was an All-American with the world at his fingertips.Although Barnes enjoyed two highly successful years in the American Basketball Association with the Spirits of St. Louis (winning Rookie of the Year honors and twice being named an All-Star), his career fizzled in the NBA as he wore out his welcome with the Detroit Pistons, Buffalo Braves, Boston Celtics, and San Diego Clippers in four years. His immaturity, as well as a chronic losing battle with drugs and alcohol, turned a potential superstar into a has-been by 1979. By then, his swagger was gone. So too was his game.Written by Mike Carey, who opened his house to Barnes later in his life, this is the story of a supremely gifted athlete whose self-destructive nature led to him living on the mean streets of East San Diego for three years as a panhandler and pimp. Eventually he would serve a total of five years in prison for various felony charges, including the sale of cocaine.Throughout his life, every time it appeared that "Bad News" had turned the corner, his demons reappeared and succeeded in luring him back into becoming a conniving dope fiend.On September 8, 2014, Barnes finally hit rock bottom, passing away due to acute cocaine and heroin intoxication. He was sixty-two years old.With stories and quotes from Julius Erving, Bill Walton, Larry Brown, Mike D'Antoni, and many others who crossed paths with Barnes, as well as a foreword from former Spirits announcer Bob Costas, "Bad News" is the story of a squandered talent who could never defeat his inner demons.
"El Otro Lado" Guía del Turista para Abrirse Camino en la Otra Vida
by Lilian G. Selvaggio Richard Martini¿Qué sucede después de que morimos? El autor y premiado cineasta Richard Martini explora inquietantes nuevas evidencias acerca de la vida después de la muerte, mediante la "vida entre vidas", donde se informa que regresamos a encontrar a nuestros seres queridos, almas gemelas y maestros espirituales. Basado en la evidencia de miles de personas que afirman que bajo hipnosis profunda, ellos vieron y experimentaron las mismas cosas básicas acerca de la Otra Vida, el libro entrevista a hipnoterapeutas de todo el mundo, entrenados con el método del cual fue pionero el Dr. Michael Newton, además de examinar sesiones reales de vida entre vidas. El autor accede a realizar él mismo ese viaje, con resultados sorprendentes y cándidos, aprendiendo que estamos completamente conscientes entre nuestras diversas encarnaciones y regresamos para conectarnos con seres queridos y almas gemelas espirituales, y juntos elegimos cómo y cuándo y con quiénes nos reencarnaremos. El autor examina cómo la ley "Kármica" es superada por "El libre albedrío", con almas que eligen vidas difíciles para aprender de su espiritualidad; sin importar qué tan difícil, extraña o compleja pueda parecer una elección de vida, fue realizada de antemano, conscientemente, con la ayuda de seres queridos, almas gemelas y ancianos sabios. Extensivamente investigado, muy sorprendente en su alcance, "El Otro Lado" lleva al lector a un nuevo territorio, valientemente incursionando donde ningún autor lo ha hecho antes, para enlazar las diversas disciplinas de la regresión a vidas pasadas, experiencias cercanas a la muerte, y exploración entre vidas. En las palabras del autor Gary Schwartz, Phd, "una vez que hayas leído este libro, ya nunca más verás el mundo de la misma manera." Elogios para "El Otro Lado": "Richard ha escrito un libro fantástico. Perceptivo, divertido, provocativo y profundo; ¡lo recomiendo absolutamente!" Robert Thurman ("Why the Dalai Lama Mat

(UN)Qualified: How God Uses Broken People to Do Big Things
by Steven FurtickWho You Think You Are is Not as Important as Who God Says You Are Many of us wrestle with the gap between our weaknesses and our dreams, between who we are and who God says we are meant to be. We feel unqualified to do God's work or to live out the calling we imagine. But God has a way of using our weaknesses for good. In fact, God loves unqualified people. In (Un)Qualified, Pastor Steven Furtick helps you peel back the assumptions you've made about yourself and see yourself as God sees you. Because true peace and confidence come not from worldly perfection but from acceptance: God's acceptance of you, your acceptance of yourself, and your acceptance of God's process of change. This is a book about understanding your identity in light of who God is. It's a book about coming to terms with the good, the bad, and the unmentionable in your life and learning to let God use you. It's about charging into the gap between your present and your hopes and meeting God there. After all, God can't bless who you pretend to be. But he longs to bless who you really are; a flawed and broken person. Good thing for us that God is in the business of using broken people to do big things. Being Unqualified Is God's Favorite Qualification Our culture tells us that the answer to our failures is to fix them. The solution to our weaknesses is to hide them. The secret to our success is to appear as flawless as possible. But God's qualifying system is different than the world's. So is his view of our weaknesses, our purpose, and our true selves. In (Un)Qualified, Steven Furtick explores who God is as the great "I AM," and then helps us discover our own identity. Delving into the story of Jacob, Furtick invites us to acknowledge our weaknesses and ask God to work through them. The truth is, God has created us to be more, to accomplish more, and to love life more than we ever thought possible. But to become who he has called us to be, we must embrace who we are right now. (Un)Qualified equips us to face obstacles and failures without losing a sense of purpose. We can have a thriving sense of hope that God is working in us and through us, not in spite of our weaknesses but often as a direct result of them.From the Hardcover edition.
