365 nap Pio atyával
Pietrelcinai Szent Pio atya mindig is arra törekedett, hogy segítse az embereket a keresztény életben való megerősödésben, mert meggyőződése volt, hogy ez vezethet el a kiteljesedéshez és végső soron a boldogsághoz.
Fennmaradt leveleiben hathatós tanácsok olvashatók arra vonatkozóan, hogyan lehet hinni Istenben, reménykedni a megpróbáltatások közepette, szeretni és megbocsátani a felebarátnak, örülni a létezésnek minden körülmény között.
Ezek a levelek a keresztény lelkiség egy még nem teljesen feltárt, rendkívül gazdag kincsesbányáját képezik, és mély szeretetről tanúskodnak az egyszerű és szegény emberek iránt, különösen azok iránt, akik mindennap dolgoznak és szenvednek, és ezzel járulnak hozzá a világ történelméhez.
A kötetben található idézetek - amelyeket Gianluigi Pasquale kapucinus szerzetes válogatott az atya leveleiből - az év minden napján elgondolkodtató, szívhez szóló lelki táplálékkal szolgálnak hívő és nem vallásos olvasók számára egyaránt.
Shinto
From time immemorial, the Japanese people have worshipped Kami--spirits that inhabit or represent a particular place, or embody natural forces like the wind, rivers, and mountains. Whenever a new settlement was founded a shrine would be erected for the spirits of that place to honor them and ensure their protection. It was believed that Kami could be found everywhere, that no place in Japan was outside their dominion. Shinto encompasses the doctrines, institutions, ritual, and communal life based on Kami worship. The ideal of Shinto, central to this study, is a construct in which a monarch rules through rituals for the Kami, a priestly order assists the sovereign by coordinating rituals, and the people who fulfill their obligations to the collective are in turn blessed by the Kami. Center and periphery join together in untroubled harmony through this theatre of state. Helen Hardacre offers for the first time in any language a sweeping, comprehensive history of Shinto, which is practiced by some 80% of the Japanese people. The basic building blocks of this vast and varied tradition, she shows, include the related concepts of imperial rule and ritual, the claim that rituals for the Kami are public in character, and the assertion that this complex web of ideas and institutions devoted to the Kami embodies Japan''s "indigenous" tradition. This study addresses the story of the emergence and development of these elements and the debates that surround them to this day. Because Shinto is centered on the Kami, it might be assumed that it is a religion, but Hardacre resists that assumption, instead questioning the character of the tradition at each stage of its history. She analyzes and deconstructs the rhetoric of Shinto as a defining feature of Japan''s racial identity, inextricably woven into the fabric of Japanese life. This definitive study represents a first, momentous step towards a more developed understanding of Shinto.
Labor Unions and American Mass Politics
A comprehensive exploration of how labor unions, broadly conceived, shape party loyalties in the American mass public. How and why do labor unions matter for American mass party loyalties, specifically party identification and vote choice? Labor Unions and American Mass Politics marshals a wide range of survey data to test two different ways through which labor unions can shape mass party loyalties. The first is via people's personal affiliation with organized labor, such as a current/former member or household resident, while the second is via people's attitudes toward organized labor, such as whether they favor vs. disfavor unions in general. Overall, author David Macdonald shows that both are capable of shaping mass support for the Democratic Party and its various political candidates and that such relationships are also conditioned by whether people perceive labor unions and Democrats to be political allies, a connection that is lacking among a sizeable minority of Americans. Overall, Macdonald provides not only a timely analysis of mass labor politics in the early twenty-first-century United States but also shows that labor unions are politically consequential, even after decades of decline.
Death Trip
Raw Power by Iggy and the Stooges is arguably the most aggressive, dynamic album in rock history, and inarguably one of the most influential. Looking past the myths and into the true story of the Stooges, Michael S. Begnal illuminates the creation of this recording in the context of the cultural zeitgeist of the early 1970s, the American War in Vietnam and the ways in which punk rock came snarling into existence. Death Trip uncovers lost archives and stories, drawing on new interviews with Stooges guitarist James Williamson and pianist Scott Thurston, and sheds fresh light on the band’s creative process. This is an in-depth, definitive account that will challenge the assumptions of even the most knowledgeable Stooges fan.

Blending poignant fiction with deeply personal reflections and practical strategies, this book offers readers a unique framework to identify and heal six distinct manifestations of isolation.
The Hebrew Bible as Literature
The Hebrew Bible, or Christian Old Testament, contains some of the finest literature that we have. This biblical literature has a place not only in the synagogue or the church but also among the classics of world literature. The stories of Jacob and David, for instance, present the earliest surviving examples of literary characters whose development the reader follows over the length of a lifetime. Elsewhere, as in the books of Esther or Ruth, readers find a snapshot of a particular, fraught moment that will define the character. The Hebrew Bible also provides quite a few high points of lyric poetry, from the praise and lament of the Psalms to the double entendres in the love of poetry of the Song of Songs. In short, the Bible can be celebrated not only as religious literature but, quite simply, as literature. This book offers a thorough and lively introduction to the Bible''s two primary literary modes, narrative and poetry, foregrounding the nuances of plot, character, metaphor, structure and design, and intertextual allusions. Tod Linafelt thus gives readers the tools to fully experience and appreciate the Hebrew Bible''s literary achievement.

Cold War Puerto Rico
A gripping history of FBI surveillance, political repression, and the fight for Puerto Rican independence In the 1940s, with the construction of a naval base and a bombing range, Puerto Rico became a major geo-political military outpost for the United States. For a power claiming global leadership in a decolonizing world, however, the archipelago’s colonial condition underscored the dissonance between American democratic rhetoric and its imperial reality. The solution was a deal that, in 1952, gave Puerto Rico a degree of self-government without changing its legal status as an “unincorporated” US territory. The US then publicly claimed Puerto Rico was now more autonomous while using repressive tactics such as FBI surveillance, arrests, destabilization, and other methods developed in Washington to silence activists and political parties pushing for full independence. In Cold War Puerto Rico, Steve Howell examines how J. Edgar Hoover and the FBI targeted Puerto Rican communists as part of an offensive against pro-independence parties and activists generally. Howell’s US-born father, who fell afoul of Hoover for producing radical cartoons while working in San Juan in the 1940s, remained on the FBI’s watch list long after exiling himself in Britain. His close friends, the Puerto Rican author Cesar Andreu Iglesias and Jane Speed de Andreu, were meanwhile arrested and imprisoned three times during the 1950s. Drawing on a wealth of new sources, including interviews and FBI files, Howell tells their stories along with those of other activists who battled indictment in 1954 under the Smith Act, challenged the jurisdiction of the House Un-American Activities Committee in San Juan in 1959, and revived the Puerto Rican independence movement in the 1960s, despite the FBI deploying the covert tactics of COINTELPRO against them. Puerto Rico is virtually invisible in histories of what is generally called McCarthyism, yet anti-communist repression was in many ways more intense there than in the mainland US. Now, with Puerto Rico’s future currently hanging in the balance, Howell’s compelling history demonstrates why we need to understand the long enforcement of its colonial status.
Presidential Elections and the Electoral College
Examines the presidential elections from 1832 to 2020 and reveals that the unequal representation of popular vote among states and wasted votes received by popular vote winners are major causes of the split between the popular vote result and Electoral College result. During the 2020 presidential election, it was possible, if unlikely, for a candidate to win the election by winning only 21 percent of the popular vote in the nation. Inversely, it was possible for a candidate to win 79 percent of popular vote and still lose the election. Examining presidential elections from 1832 to 2020, Manabu Saeki reveals that the unequal representation of popular vote among states and wasted votes received by popular vote winners are major causes of the split between the popular vote result and Electoral College result. An average voter in the most overrepresented state holds Electoral College votes that are approximately twice as many as those of the average voter nationwide and four times larger than those of the most underrepresented state. Republican candidates today tend to win a significantly larger number of overrepresented states, thereby winning a larger number of Electoral College votes relative to the number of popular votes they win. However, Republican candidates also suffer more wasted votes than Democratic candidates. Further, Saeki analyzes the vote decision by individual voters. Voters with strong racist and/or authoritarian inclinations tended to vote for a Republican candidate prior to, as well as after, the 2016 election. There is no indication that Donald Trump mobilized the voters with racist or authoritarian predispositions.
A digitális marketing vakfoltja - Avagy ezért hazudik a marketingmérésed
Volt egy korszak, amikor a marketing egyszerűnek tűnt.
Megnéztük az adatokat, optimalizáltunk, skáláztunk.
Azt hittük, mindent látunk. Ez a korszak véget ért.
A digitális térben ma már a döntések jelentős része láthatatlanul születik meg. A felhasználók nem kattintanak - mégis döntenek. A látogatói statisztikákban nem látni, milyen bonyolult útvonalon jut el döntésig a vevő. A legértékesebb ajánlások privát csatornákon terjednek - ahová az analitika már nem lát.
Ez a dark traffic világa.
Ez a szakkönyv lebontja a digitális marketing egyik legnagyobb illúzióját: hogy amit mérünk, az maga a valóság.
Megmutatja:
- miért torzulnak rendszerszinten az adatok
- hogyan alakul át a fogyasztói út a zero-click korszakában
- és hogyan hozhatsz jó döntéseket akkor is, ha nem látsz mindent
Elfáradtunk - A párkapcsolati kiégéstől a visszatalálásig
Túlterhelt, ingerekkel és problémákkal elárasztott életünkben az egyik legalapvetőbb közös élmény a kimerültség. Sokan érezzük úgy, hogy elfáradtunk, és már nem elég pár nyugodt éjszaka vagy egy-két hét szabadság, hogy kipihenjük magunkat. Ez a fajta fáradtság ugyanis nem átmeneti jelenség, hanem egyre inkább napjaink alapállapota.
A kiégés fogalmát még ma is hajlamosak vagyunk a munka világához kötni, noha az azt kísérő kimerültség más életterületeken is könnyen megjelenhet. Ott is, ahol talán nem számítanánk rá: a legközelebbi kapcsolatainkban.
Szabó-Bartha Anett könyve ezt a sokak számára ismerős, mégis ritkán kimondott tapasztalatot járja körül: azt a szürke zónát, ahol a párkapcsolat még működik, de már egyre kevesebb benne a lendület és az öröm. Próbálunk helytállni, ám ezért egyre többet kell feladnunk magunkból. És bár szeretjük a másikat, mind gyakrabban érzünk megkönnyebbülést, ha egy estét nem kell vele tölteni.
A pszichológus-párterapeuta szerző feltérképezi, hogyan lesz a közelségből megszokás, a figyelemből feladat, az együttlétből logisztika - és végül teher. Azt a folyamatot követi végig, ahogyan két ember fokozatosan elveszíti azokat a belső erőforrásokat, amelyek élővé tesznek egy kapcsolatot. Hiszen ezt éppen azért olyan nehéz felismerni, mert nincs egyetlen pont, ahol elromlik. Ahogyan egyetlen mindent megmagyarázó ok sincs: a kiégésben éppúgy szerepet játszhatnak jelenlegi életformánk sajátosságai és a mindennapi túlterheltség, mint a sémáinkból fakadó működésmódjaink.
A könyvben bemutatott helyzetek zavarba ejtően ismerősek, a felismerés pedig meghökkentő lehet: az a fáradtság, amelyet eddig a külvilágnak tulajdonítottunk, talán már ott is jelen van, ahonnan a feltöltődést reméljük: a párkapcsolatunkban. Ám ha ezt idejében észrevesszük, az eltávolodás nem kell, hogy végleges legyen - van visszaút egymáshoz.
A keresztes hadjáratok - Háborúk a Szentföldért
A 11. században egy hatalmas keresztény sereg, amely a pápa hívására állt fegyverbe, végigsöpört a Földközi-tenger keleti partvidékének iszlám világán, és elfoglalta Jeruzsálemet, egy három vallás által is szentnek tartott várost. Az első keresztes hadjáratot követő kétszáz évben mohamedán és keresztény seregek vívtak brutális háborúkat a Szentföld feletti uralomért. Mindkét oldal szilárdan hitte, hogy Isten akaratát teljesíti be.
Ez a könyv elmeséli e nagyszabású háborúk történetét, a keresztények és a muszlimok szemszögéből is, bemutatva a konfliktus mindkét oldalán állók tapasztalatait és az ügyhöz való hozzáállását. Feltárja a keresztes hadjáratok borzalmas világát.
A téma egyik legkiválóbb szakértője, Thomas Asbridge könyve élénk és átható olvasmányt nyújt a keresztes hadjáratok történetéről. Fáradságos kutatásaira és a Közel-Kelet alapos ismeretére támaszkodva feltárja, mi késztette a muszlimokat és a keresztényeket egyaránt a dzsihád és a keresztes hadjárat eszméinek elfogadására, hogyan formálták át ezek a szent háborúk a középkori életet, és miért visszhangoznak mind a mai napig az emberek emlékezetében.
Religion
Religion plays a central role in human experience. Billions of people around the world practice a faith and act in accordance with it. Religion shapes how they enter the world and how they leave it - how they eat, dress, marry, and raise their children. It shapes their assumptions about who they are and who they want to be. Religion also identifies insiders and outsiders, who has power and who doesn''t. It sanctifies injustice and combats it. It draws national borders. It affects law, economy, and government. It destroys and restores the environment. It starts wars and ends them. Whether you notice it or not, religion plays a role in how billions conduct their lives. We are called, then, to understand this important factor in human life today.Beginning with the first signs of religion among ancient humans and concluding with a look at modern citizens and global trends, leading scholar Thomas Tweed examines this powerful and enduring force in human society. Tweed deftly documents religion as it exists around the world, addressing its role in both intensifying and alleviating contemporary political and environmental problems, from armed conflict to climate change. Religion: A Very Short Introduction offers a concise non-partisan overview of religion''s long history and its complicated role in the world today.
Hanuman
A complete and comprehensive collection of the sacred texts of Hanuman. Hanuman is revered across India and is the deity in whom people place the greatest faith, honouring him as Sankatmochan, the one who liberates from all kinds of hardships and suffering. In moments of distress, his name is the first to be invoked. This book brings together all major sacred texts related to Hanuman in one place, offering both their Hindi and English translations and the phonetic transliterations of the original texts. An index of the dohas and chaupais of the Sundarkand is provided to help readers locate references. Additionally, this book explores fascinating questions about Hanuman, such as why Rama declared him greater than himself, the stories behind when and why Tulsidas composed the Hanuman Chalisa and Hanuman Bahuk, the number of Sundarkands Tulsidas wrote, why it is called Sundarkand and the significance of performing aarti after prayer, among others.
Politics, Policy and Predictions
In his compelling new book, firebrand parliamentarian Derek O''Brien tackles some of the most pressing questions confronting our democracy under the ruling dispensation. O''Brien bravely follows in the footsteps of the argumentative Indian to interrogate the false media narratives and power politics rampant in the country. His astute observations, backed by thorough research and statistics, present not only a history of one of the most sacred institutions in India, but also trace a fact-for-fact erosion of that status in the last decade.
Restless Giant
James Patterson''s Bancroft Prize-winning Grand Expectations, the penultimate volume in the Oxford History of the United States, was hailed by The New York Times as "a spirited, sprawling narrative of American life" and by The Wall Street Journal as "a tour de force." Now, in the final chronological volume of this acclaimed series, Patterson again offers an authoritative and vibrant history of a turbulent period in American life. Restless Giant provides a crisp, concise assessment of the twenty-seven years between the resignation of Richard Nixon and the election of George W. Bush, in a sweeping narrative that seamlessly weaves together social, cultural, political, economic, and international developments. We meet the era''s many memorable figures--most notably, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton--and explore the "culture wars" where liberals and conservatives, including a resurgent Religious Right, appeared to cut the country in two. Indeed, Reagan helped to usher in a widespread conservative revolution, but even as the Right was ascendant politically, it did not succeed in reversing more liberal trends. Patterson describes how, when the Cold War finally ended, Americans faced bewildering new developments around the world and discovered--in Panama, Somalia, Bosnia, and Iraq--that it was far from easy to direct the outcome of global events. In exploring a wide range of cultural, social, and economic concerns, Patterson shows how the persistence of racial tensions, high divorce rates, alarm over crime, and urban decay all led many writers to portray this era as one of decline. But Restless Giant offers a more positive perspective, arguing that our often unmet expectations caused many of us to view the era negatively, when in fact we were in many ways better off than we thought. By 2000, most Americans lived more comfortably than they had in the 1970s, and though bigotry and discrimination were far from extinct, a powerful rights consciousness insured that these were less pervasive in American life than at any time in the past. With insightful analyses and engaging prose, Restless Giant captures this period of American history in a way that no other book has, illuminating the road that the United States traveled from the dismal days of the mid-1970s through the hotly contested election of 2000.
