Az élet második fele - Út a kiteljesedés felé
"Életünk közepe táján felébred bennünk az igény, hogy mindazt, amit megtapasztaltunk, valahogy rendszerezzük. Ekkor már tudjuk, hogy időnk nem végtelen, és ahhoz, hogy elkövetkező éveink értékesen teljenek, magunknak is tennünk kell. James Hollis ebben segít. Sorvezetőt ad a belső munkához, a rossz mintázatok felismeréséhez és meghaladásához. Értékes kötet, bizonyosan nem csak az élet második felében."
Orvos-Tóth Noémi pszichológus
Valamikor negyven- és hatvanéves kor között bekövetkezik egy "lélektani perspektívaváltás" azáltal, hogy végigtekintünk addigi életünkön, számot vetünk eredményeinkkel és kudarcainkkal. James Hollis jungiánus pszichoanalitikus úgy gondolja, hogy ilyenkor kezdődik az élet második fele, amely számos új lehetőséget tartogat.
Hollis könyvében felteszi mindazokat a fontos kérdéseket, amelyeket megválaszolva világosabb fejjel, érettebb pszichével folytathatjuk és tehetjük teljesebbé az életünket.
36 órás nap
Mit tegyek, ha nem ismer meg? Mennyi időt töltsek vele? Hogyan védjem meg a csalóktól? Hogyan intézzem a pénzügyeit? Hogyan etessem, hogyan tegyem tisztába? Meddig lehet egyedül hagyni? Mikor keressünk idősotthont?
Rengeteg ehhez hasonló kérdés foglalkoztatja azt, aki Alzheimer-kórral vagy más demenciával élő hozzátartozóját gondozza "napi 36 órában". Ebben az embert próbáló élethelyzetben nyújt hatalmas segítséget ez a világszerte elismert, irányadó kézikönyv. Az évtizedes gondozói gyakorlattal rendelkező szerzőpáros többek között
- megismerteti a demencia gyűjtőfogalma alá tartozó betegségek fő jellemzőit és lefolyását
- sok-sok, a gyakorlatban igazolt, konkrét tanáccsal szolgál a mindennapok átvészeléséhez az étkezéstől a közlekedésen át a kommunikációig
- áttekinti az otthoni ápolás és az intézményi elhelyezés lehetőségeit, előnyeit és hátrányait
- segít a gondozónak felismerni és kezelni saját szükségleteit is.
Bár a kötet az egyesült államokbeli gyakorlatot veszi alapul, számos, hazai szakember által írt, kifejezetten magyar vonatkozású résszel egészítettük ki a jelen kiadást.
A 36 órás nap fő gondolata minden országban, minden nyelven érvényes: bár nem mindig könnyű, de lehet és érdemes minél boldogabb és kiegyensúlyozottabb életet teremteni a demens betegek számára.
Water from the Rock
A multifaceted history of Black resistance during the War of IndependenceThe American Revolution brought about violent and unpredictable social changes throughout the new nation, particularly in the South. Sylvia Frey reveals how slave resistance gave rise to a Black liberation movement that was central to the revolutionary struggle in the southern colonies, and how Black resistance persisted after the war as a struggle for cultural power that manifested itself in the establishment of separate Black churches with distinctive ritual patterns and moral values. She examines how white Southerners responded to Black resistance amid their own fight for independence from the British, and how they reacted to new movements by African Americans in the postwar period. With an incisive foreword by Manisha Sinha, Water from the Rock shows how the upheavals of war created opportunities for a quiet revolution that laid the foundations for the modern civil rights movement in America.
Utopia
THE TRANSFORMATION OF UTOPIA IN THE FRENCH REVOLUTION, FROM A ROMANTIC IDEAL TO A POLITICAL OBJECTIVE
Until the Age of Enlightenment, utopia was a popular literary genre, but without concrete political effects. However, in the decades leading up to 1789, its status gradually changed from an entertaining thought experiment to a socialist project. Imagining the ideal city took on the task of articulating revolutionary transformation of society towards equality and social justice.
In Utopia, Stéphanie Roza explores the nascent ideal of a community of property and labour, not yet called communism, and the thinkers who engaged with it in the lead-up to the French Revolution. These philosophers included Étienne-Gabriel Morelly, a fierce critic of private property and the mysterious author of the Code de la Nature; the Abbé de Mably, a radical republican and interlocutor of Rousseau; and Gracchus Babeuf, who, from the 1780s onwards, defended the natural right to subsistence and dreamed of a more fraternal world.
Together, they laid the foundations for modern socialist movements. In the crucible of the French Revolution, ‘real equality’ became the goal of a handful of conspirators gathered around Babeuf, who had meanwhile become the ‘tribune of the people’. The Conspiracy of Equals was considered by Marx to be ‘the first active communist party’: the hopes and questions that ran through the group prefigured those of the militants of later periods, including today.

The Class Struggle in the Ancient Greek World
The Class Struggle in the Ancient Greek World is an original and provocative reconstruction of 1,400 years of classical antiquity. Sharply written, it is a major intervention in Marxist theories of class, seeking to explain and illustrate the value of Marx's general analysis of society to ancient Greek studies. G. E. M. de Ste. Croix makes slavery central to the achievements of the Greek city-states and wider classical civilisation. He traces the social origins of Athenian democracy and advances an innovative explanation for the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. Comparing the late Roman political system to a 'vampire bat', Ste. Croix argues that serfdom and a tightening fiscal screw left the peasant masses indifferent to the Empire's fate.
Widely reviewed and debated, The Class Struggle in the Ancient Greek World was hailed by the New York Review of Books as 'the only work in a Western language that has ever attempted to tell the story of the greatest part of the ancient world with the interests of the lower classes as its central theme'.
Concern for Creation
This book is about participating in a conversation seeking to develop a holistic spirituality and theology. At its heart is the aboriginal conviction that everything is connected. It contains personal biographical story to encourage others to enter its whole of Creation Theology. It is about more than just us humans.In the writing of theology, it is always important to address its applicability to the contemporary context. In our time that context is “climate change” and all the complex issues surrounding the warming of our planet. This book begins with a summary of the interconnected issues that we now face. It also looks at some proposed strategies for mitigating the impacts of climate change. There is an awareness that climate change arises from human rather than natural activity.?The book then turns to a Tasmanian aboriginal theology that emerges out of colonial invasion. Themes from this theology are then followed through from the perspective of European philosophy, science and Christian theology. The last section of the book contains some reflection on what has come before. It seeks to discover hope for our children in a context where hope seems in short supply.

Their End Is Our Beginning
A deeply reported analysis of the connections between policing and capitalism, centering global lessons of revolt and resistanceWhere do cops come from and what do they do? How did “modern policing” as we know it today come to be? What about the capitalist state necessitates policing? In this clear and comprehensive account of why and how the police—the linchpin of capitalism—function and exist, organizer and author brian bean presents a clear case for the abolition of policing and capitalism.Their End Is Our Beginning traces the roots and development of policing in global capitalism through colonial rule, racist enslavement, and class oppression, along the way arguing how police power can be challenged and, ultimately, abolished. bean draws from extensive interviews with activists from Mexico to Ireland to Egypt, all of whom share compelling and knowledgeable perspectives on what it takes to—even if temporarily—take down the cops and build a thriving community-organized society, free from the police. The lessons they offer bring nuance to the meaning of “solidarity” and clarity to what “abolition” and “revolution” look like in practice.Featuring illustrations by Chicago-based artist Charlie Aleck, Their End Is Our Beginning is an incendiary book that offers a socialist analysis of policing and the capitalist state, a vital discussion of the contours of abolition at large, and the revolutionary logic needed for liberation.
Gettysburg Surgeons
The Battle of Gettysburg was one of the Civil War’s turning points—and one of its bloodiest clashes of arms. At places now etched in history—Devil’s Den, the Wheatfield, Cemetery Ridge—the carnage was horrific: some 50,000 men became casualties, about half of them wounded in need of medical care. During the battle’s three days, and for months after, a thousand surgeons—military as well as civilian, southern but mostly northern—provided care to the wounded in conditions that beggared the imagination and stretched the limits of nineteenth-century medicine. Drawing on nearly a decade of research, historian Barbara Franco stitches together medical history, military history, and Civil War history to highlight the work of the surgeons of Gettysburg.The medical staff of the Army of the Potomac and the Army of Northern Virginia had their hands—and medical tents and wagons—full even before the battle started. On the march for nearly a month, from central Virginia to southern Pennsylvania, soldiers fell out of the ranks daily with heat stroke, exhaustion, dehydration, malnutrition, injuries to feet and legs, wounds from skirmishes with the enemy, and a gut-wrenching array of illnesses, from dysentery to typhoid fever, whose causes were still poorly understood. Doctors and surgeons treated the sick and hurt while on the move themselves, working around the clock to keep the armies in fighting condition.Once the shooting started on the morning of July 1, 1863, the situation became chaotic as medical personnel hurried to Gettysburg, where the fallen littered fields, woods, and town and makeshift hospitals opened in churches, barns, and other buildings. As surgeons settled in overnight, so did the armies, who unleashed hell on each other on July 2 and July 3, culminating in the devastation of Pickett’s Charge. Chaos became nightmare as the wounded flooded hospital tents and surgeons went about the grisly work of treating bloodied and mangled soldiers, triaging patients, amputating limbs, and performing a narrow range of other surgeries, such as trephination of the skull. Surgeons worked in primitive field conditions with little rest or sleep while the battle still raged around them, the wounded groaned and cried, and gruesome scenes unfolded by the minute. Ether and chloroform were available for anesthesia, and morphine for pain, but the era did not yet have antibiotics or an understanding of germs, hygiene, and the need for sterile equipment. The work of surgeons continued long after the two armies left. A massive hospital camp was established, and thousands of Union and Confederate soldiers were treated until the facility finally closed the following November.
The Perilous Deep
The vast expanse, unknown depths, dangers and mysteries of the sea have led mariners to create fantastical stories of ghosts and monsters for centuries; it is a world strange and ‘other’ to the experience of land dwellers. This body of lore has served to bond nautical communities together around the world and throughout history, with international stories fusing with local tales. The Perilous Deep explores why these stories were told, how they were repeated and mutated and what fears, anxieties and desires they helped to express. This is a fascinating exploration of the supernatural history of the Atlantic Ocean and some of its neighbouring seas, showing how seafaring peoples have developed knowledge and a sense of control over nature through myths and legends.
Divine Revelation according to Christianity, Judaism, and Islam
Christianity, Judaism, and Islam face similar questions and challenges about the continuing role of a foundational revelation that gives rise to a Tradition and traditions and, most importantly, to the sacred Scriptures in their formation and interpretation. A conversation among three experts in Christian, Jewish, and Muslim theology, this book introduces readers to the foundational issues that all three Abrahamic religions face as they examine comparative issues that affect major, monotheistic faiths."It is my greatest joy to read and savor my friend Gerald O''Collins''s last book. It is the capstone of a long and prodigious career of research and scholarship. Always open to new insights and new fields, O''Collins revisits his favorite theme, namely fundamental theology, on which he has written several trailblazing books, but this time in dialogue with his two confreres on Judaism and Islam. The book is vintage O''Collins, marked by a willingness to listen, profundity of thought, wide-ranging scholarship, and lucidity of expression. The book is a fitting tribute to one of the greatest and prolific theologians of our times."—Peter C. Phan, The Ignacio Ellacuria, SJ, Chair of Catholic Social Thought, Georgetown University"In our disrupted world of global religions, it has become crucial again for interreligious relations and coexistence between Christians, Jews, and Muslims to understand the idea of God''s revelation according to the religious ''other.'' This book addresses this question in a direct way that is clarifying and hope giving at the same time."—Massimo Faggioli, professor of historical theology, Villanova UniversityGerald O''Collins, SJ (d. 2024), was professor emeritus of theology at the Gregorian University in Rome and a prolific author of books and articles. Marc Rastoin, SJ, teaches at the Biblical Institute in Rome and has enjoyed extensive contacts with Judaism. Jean-Marc Balhan, SJ, has lived for many years in Turkey, where he has engaged in long-standing dialogue with Muslims.†

Poklad evanjelia
Pred Kristom sa ľudstvo obracalo na Boha v snahe o spoločenstvo s ním, pričom náboženstvo ho predstavovalo stále väčšmi vzdialeného. Utiekajúc sa k svojmu Bohu, všetko, čo ľudia robili, bolo pre Pána, od služby cez modlitbu až po lásku k druhým. A tie najnábožnejšie osoby boli často natoľko zaujaté svojím Bohom, že si ani nevšimli potreby blížnych.
S Ježišom sa všetko mení. V ňom sa končí hľadanie Boha: Pána už netreba hľadať, ale prijať a v ňom a ako on kráčať v ústrety ľuďom. S Ježišom už ľudia nežijú pre Boha, ale z Boha, ktorý je Otcom, a teda žiada, aby ho prijali, aby sa s nimi mohol zlúčiť a zväčšiť ich schopnosť lásky.
Ježišovo posolstvo sa tak stáva univerzálnym a objíma celé ľudstvo. Nikto sa nebude ľudí pýtať, či verili, ale či milovali, nie či vstúpili do chrámu, ale či otvorili svoj dom núdznemu, nie či prinášali obety Pánovi, ale či sa podelili o svoj chlieb s tými, ktorí ho potrebovali. Ktokoľvek prejaví pozornosť voči potrebám druhého človeka, ten vstupuje do večného života.

Crusader Criminals
A vivid new history of the criminal underworld in the medieval Holy Land.
The religious wars of the crusades are renowned for their military engagements. But the period was witness to brutality beyond the battlefield. More so than any other medieval war zone, the Holy Land was rife with unprecedented levels of criminality and violence.
In the first history of its kind, Steve Tibble explores the criminal underbelly of the crusades. From gangsters and bandits to muggers and pirates, Tibble presents extraordinary evidence of an illicit underworld. He shows how the real problem in the region stemmed not from religion but from young men. Dislocated, disinhibited, and present in disturbingly large numbers, they were the propellant that stoked two centuries of unceasing warfare and shocking levels of criminality.
Crusader Criminals charts the downward spiral of desensitisation that grew out of the horrors of incessant warfare-and in doing so uncovers some of the most surprising stories of the time.
