Walk in the shoes of an American born in Palestine. Join him in his struggle to live a life of divided loyalties. Experience Adam's (aka, Ahmed) agonies as he tries to do the right thing, but his country marks him as a terrorist. Come to know what it is like to have Homeland Security persecuting you for some crime you might commit. Accompany him in his flight to the Middle East, as he tries to compensate for the injustices that the West has brought to the Arab world. Share Ahmed's disillusionment as he learns that people all over the world have feet of clay. With enemy agents trying to assassinate him, life is seldom dull. Meet the nurse he hooks up with on his overseas flight. He believes it was his destiny to join the Islamic State freedom-fighters, but was it? Learn about the mixed feelings Ahmed has, as he survives over there, fighting to bring glory to the Islamic State. Learn how he concludes his jihad with an unexpected end. This is a cautionary tale-- it has relevancy for you.

Contemporary Science Fiction and The Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Contemporary Science Fiction and The Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics

Jonathan P. Lewis

BLOOMSBURY PUBLISHING PLC
2025
sidottu
This book seeks to create a new means of interrogating the direction in which contemporary science fiction is progressing.In the late 1950s, Hugh Everett III suggested that there is no way to say that there are not as many versions of what we experience as reality as there are particles in the universe. This movement in contemporary science fiction serves as the foreground for the sense of loss and the need for sacrifice to set things ‘right’ after generations of technological praxis by the nations and communities that have traditionally driven science fiction—the Global North—that have damaged communities throughout the Global South. Colonialism and the drives for spheres of influence in the Cold War are now being met with the realities of such existential threats as global climate change. Narratives about the loss of control over time, reality, and human consciousness demonstrate the on-going ideological crises of faith in institutions like religion, capitalism, and education. It is the grief for lost utopian dreams for the future that drives this interest in Everett’s ‘Many-Worlds Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics’ or ‘MWI.’

Find inspiration for a satisfying spiritual life of practice through the combination of contemporary mindfulness meditation and classical Hasidic spirituality."The lessons in Kedushat Levi were not originally intended as intellectual curiosities or as demonstrations of R. Levi Yitzhak's brilliance. They were meant to inspire religious passion and deeper spiritual practice. I believe that these teachings will come to life in us when we bring them into our lives in practice."--from the IntroductionThe soul yearns to feel connected to something greater and to know happiness despite personal suffering and seemingly endless need. Surprisingly, the perspectives of the late eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Hasidic spiritual teachers offer a radically different Jewish theology that speaks directly to today's spiritual seekers whose faith has been shattered by both modernity and the Holocaust. These masters taught of interdependence, interconnectedness, selflessness, service and joy, anticipating the insights of contemporary science and twenty-first-century spirituality.Bringing together the teachings of beloved Hasidic master Rabbi Levi Yitzhak of Berdichev (1740-1809) and the practice of mindfulness meditation, Rabbi Jonathan P. Slater reveals a new entrance into Jewish spiritual life. Covering the Five Books of Moses, these two volumes present accessible translations of selections from Kedushat Levi, R. Levi Yitzhak's Hasidic Torah commentary, which emphasizes our spiritual capacity to transform consciousness and so our life experience. The selections are paired with Rabbi Slater's commentaries to illuminate their message.

Mirrors of Self

Mirrors of Self

Jonathan P Badgett

Wipf Stock Publishers
2021
pokkari
Orthodox Christology maintains that Jesus Christ is both truly God and truly human. As such, he is the key to knowing both God and self. In a series of applications of christological anthropology, Mirrors of Self develops this epistemic premise in dialogue with a diversity of Christian and secular, historical and modern perspectives. Aspects of human personhood, including the ever-elusive self, gain greater clarity and significance in the light of Christ's person and work. At the center of individual human subjectivity, we encounter a broken, sin-blinded self in need of renewal and release. What healing we find comes to us as Christ's ecological presence works in and through others--the mirrors of self whose instrumental agency Christ employs in service to his own redemptive ends.

Wildflowers: A School Superintendent's Challenge to America

Jonathan P. Raymond

Wildflower Press
2018
nidottu
Wildflowers is both one man's journey into the joys and sorrows of leading a large urban school district in the 21st century, and a gripping, highly informative guide to transforming America's public schools. Every child, Jonathan Raymond believes, is as exceptional and unique as a wildflower, able to adapt and grow even in the face of adverse conditions. As Superintendent of a district beset by budget cuts and neglect, Raymond spearheaded innovative, radical changes that raised test scores and graduation rates, and made "failing" schools succeed.Whether you are a parent, educator, policy maker, or concerned taxpayer, your assumptions about public education will melt away as Raymond sets aside ideology to focus on the nonpartisan, evidence-based promise of "Whole Child" education. This child-centered approach, which once made American public schools a source of national pride, was later abandoned by policymakers with no understanding of how children really learn. Raymond's brave stand against top-down bureaucracy and "teaching to the test" led to controversy and even law suits. Driven by his unwavering commitment to children, families, and local communities, he rallied students, parents and teachers, pushing the boundaries to make real change happen. His story is a model for what true leadership in education looks like.Raymond's riveting first-person account of how to reignite the potential of our youth - regardless of where they live or how much money their parents make - gives every American the tools, insights, and inspiration to get involved and take a stand on an issue critical to our country's future.All proceeds from the sale of Wildflowers will be donated to advance Whole Child education.

Behind the Slickrock Curtain

Behind the Slickrock Curtain

Jonathan P Thompson

Lost Souls Press
2020
pokkari
In the not so distant future, as the planet burns, the nation reels from the effects of a pandemic, Truth is on the brink of extinction, and the late-president tweets madly from the grave, Durango artist Peter Simons heads into Utah's Canyon Country to scout locations for his biggest project ever. When Peter fails to return on time, and mercenaries working for the federal government start asking questions about him, Peter's wife Eliza Santos launches a search. She calls on Peter's old friend and her ex-lover, disgraced journalist and purveyor of fake news, Malcolm Brautigan, for help. As they search for Peter they unwittingly uncover a tangled scheme led by oligarchs, an alluring petroleum engineer, and corrupt government officials to ravage a sacred landscape with a tar sands operation. But the more they learn, the more they suspect that it is merely a smokescreen for a much bigger operation involving a long-lost deposit of high-grade uranium. But are the perpetrators trying to destroy the planet? Or save it? And why are they so interested in Malcolm's memories? Behind the Slickrock Curtain, Part I of the Project Petrichor Environmental Thriller Series, is a riveting, racy, irreverent romp through the Anthropocene and an insightful, humorous, and sometimes scathing exploration of eco-despair, disinformation in the post-truth age, love, friendship, and the power of memory and place.
