School of Hard Luck: A Memoir of Money and Morals

School of Hard Luck: A Memoir of Money and Morals

Paul Steinberg

Independently Published

I still look over my shoulder, wherever I am, I relive the violent bullying I encountered as a kid. I am now in my 7th decade, a cancer survivor, an advocate and mentor for homeless teens, a husband/father/grandfather and dog rescuer. This is the prequel to my next book that will come out in May. This is a story told, from the perspective of a boy, who faced incredible odds and got lost so many times along the way. I got in with the wrong group of people. I dropped out of school. I only cared about making money and wanted all the nice things, I never could afford. I wanted to be accepted for me, but I had no idea who I was or how to find that acceptance. This is a story about growing up in Montreal, facing bullying and racism, being poor, being a punching bag and finally fighting back, peacefully, thoughtfully, not just for myself but for anyone who has ever felt less than. The more we all share our stories of our upbringings and the remnants of which we carry the rest of our lives, the more awareness we bring to the causes, the pain and the need for change.
A Salamander's Tale

A Salamander's Tale

Paul Steinberg

Skyhorse Publishing
2015
sidottu
Staring in the face of prostate cancer at age thirty-five and metastatic disease and proposed surgical castration at age forty, Paul Steinberg was forced to take two simultaneous journeys. The first was to transition from doctor to patient and surrender his physical health to a medical establishment he knew from firsthand knowledge would be using approaches that would be outdated within a few years. The second was a spiritual journey. His search for a higher meaning in his life sent him as far as walking over hot coals with Tony Robbins. Using the salamander as his role model, Steinberg, a college-health and sports psychiatrist, takes a look at the evolution of the regenerative capabilities of cold-blooded vertebrates like the salamander and at what we as humans have lost and gained in our warm-bloodedness. How do human beings regenerate? How do we redeem ourselves when our capacity for regeneration is limited? How did the prostate evolve, and how does prostate cancer develop? With wit and humor, Steinberg tackles lust and sex, and ultimately time and death and the gods. Having lived longer than virtually anyone else with metastatic prostate cancer, he uses his knowledge as a doctor and experience as a patient to provide a story of endurance and perseverance, weaving a tale of grace, regeneration, and redemption?just not the kind of regeneration and redemption that he or anyone else would expect.
Recovery, the 12 Steps and Jewish Spirituality

Recovery, the 12 Steps and Jewish Spirituality

Paul Steinberg; Abraham J. Twerski

Jewish Lights Publishing
2014
sidottu
A major new Jewish contribution to 12-Step spirituality. Claim the spiritual freedom that waits beyond the suffering and slavery of addiction. "One of the important similarities between AA and Jewish spirituality is the statement in Step 12, 'to practice these principles in all our affairs....' There is no dichotomy of sacred versus secular. Jewish spirituality applies to how we eat, sleep, work, socialize and recreate. There is nothing that is external to the relationship of human being to God." —from the Foreword This easy-to-read exploration from a Jewish perspective is the first comprehensive approach to successfully integrate classic Jewish spirituality with the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and other recovery resources. With clarity and passion, Rabbi Paul Steinberg masterfully weaves traditional Jewish wisdom with the experience, strength and hope of AA. He draws on Jewish resources—theological, psychological and ethical—that speak to the spiritual dimension of the disease, and shows how the principles of Jewish spiritual recovery directly align with those of the AA 12 Steps. Along the way, he courageously shares his own personal struggles with alcoholism and addiction in a way that will help others find guidance and a new life path—and stay on it.

As Iran's nuclear program evolves, U.S. decisionmakers will confront a series of critical policy choices involving complex considerations and policy trade-offs. These policy choices could involve dissuading Iran from developing nuclear weapons; deterring Iran from using its nuclear weapons, if it were to acquire them; and, reassuring U.S. regional partners. The U.S. Air Force will need to prepare to carry out whatever policies are chosen.

A concentration camp survivor confronts one of the most heated and vexed questions of the Holocaust: what price survival? In 1943, sixteen-year-old Paul Steinberg was arrested in Paris and deported to Auschwitz. A chemistry student, Steinberg was assigned to work in the camp's laboratory alongside Primo Levi, who would later immortalize his fellow inmate as "Henri," the ultimate survivor, the paradigm of the prisoner who clung to life at the cost of his own humanity. "One seems to glimpse a human soul," Levi wrote in "If This Is a Man," "but then Henri's sad smile freezes in a cold grimace, and here he is again, intent on his hunt and his struggle; hard and distant, enclosed in armor, the enemy of all."Now, after fifty years, Steinberg speaks for himself. In an unsparing act of self-scrutiny, he traces his passage from artless adolescent to ruthless creature determined to do anything to live. He describes his strategies of survival: the boxing matches he staged for the camp commanders, the English POWs he exploited, the maneuvers and tactics he applied with cold competence. Ultimately, he confirms Levi's judgment: "No doubt he saw straight. I probably was that creature, prepared to use whatever means I had available." But, he asks, "Is it so wrong to survive?"Brave and rare, "Speak You Also" is a profound and necessary addition to the body of Holocaust writing: a survivor's reckoning with culpability and survival.
