Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tragedies of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians are never far from the pages of the mainstream press. Yet it is rare to hear about the reality of life on the ground, and it is rarer still when these voices belong to women. This book records the intimate journey of a Jewish-American physician travelling and working within Israel and the Occupied Territories. Alice Rothchild grew up in a family grounded by the traumas of the Holocaust and passionately devoted to Israel. This book recounts her experiences as she grapples with the reality of life in Israel, the complexity of Jewish Israeli attitudes, and the hardships of Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza. Through her work with a medical and human rights project, Rothchild is able to offer a unique personal insight into the conflict. Based on interviews with a number of different women, she examines their diverse perspectives and the complexities of Jewish Israeli identity. Rothchild's memorable account brings to life the voices of people mutually entwined in trauma, and explores individual examples of resilience and resistance. Ultimately, the book raises troubling questions regarding U.S. policy and the insistence of the mainstream Jewish community on giving unquestioning support to all Israeli policy. Alice Rothchild, M.D., serves on the steering committee of Jewish Voice for Peace, Boston. She has worked with medical delegations to Israel and the Occupied Territories with the JVP Health and Human Rights Project. A Boston-based physician, she has sought to build alliances between Israelis and Palestinians in opposition to Israeli policies of occupation and to promote a more honest dialogue within the Jewish community in the United States.

Looking to the book of Ecclesiastes for wisdom, Living Life Backward was written to shake up our expectations and priorities for what it means to live "the good life." Considering the reality of death helps us pay attention to our limitations as human beings and receive life as a wondrous gift from God—freeing us to live wisely, generously, and faithfully for God's glory and the good of his world.

Book excerpt: Using the Biblical story of Naomi, Dr. Larry Crabb shows you how to look through life's tragedies to see the lavish blessings God has for you in Shattered Dreams. “Shattered dreams,” writes Dr. Larry Crabb, “are never random. They are always a piece in a larger puzzle, a chapter in a larger story. The Holy Spirit uses the pain of shattered dreams to help us discover our desire for God, to help us begin dreaming the highest dream.” To help you understand this neglected truth in the deepest and most helpful way, author and counselor Larry Crabb has written a wise, hopeful, honest, and realistic examination of life’s difficulties and tragedies. He wraps these insights around the bold story of Naomi in the Bible’s book of Ruth. As Crabb retells and illuminates this sometimes disturbing and often profoundly touching story, we are shown how God stripped Naomi of happiness in order to prepare her for joy. And we gain an unforgettable picture of how God uses shattered dreams to release better dreams and a more fulfilling life for those He loves. Shattered dreams have the power to change our lives for good. Join Larry Crabb on a life-changing adventure to encounter God in the midst of life’s most difficult times, and learn to live beyond your Shattered Dreams.

This beautifully designed edition presents Dr. King's speech in its entirety, paying tribute to this extraordinary leader and his immeasurable contribution, and inspiring a new generation of activists dedicated to carrying on the fight for justice and equality.

Book excerpt: Making it in a man’s world… When Hannah Barrington took on the job of safety manager at her father’s mine, she expected it to be challenging. Not only because of the high-pressure environment where safety is always paramount, but because she’s working in a traditionally male dominated world and there are plenty of men who have made it clear they don’t want her there. But Hannah is known for her pluck, and she’s determined to make her mark. She also refuses to be intimidated by anyone. That includes Liam Hennessy. An investigator with the New South Wales Resources Regulator, Liam Hennessy is responsible for investigating safety breaches at Hannah’s mine. Having recently been transferred to the Hunter Valley, this is the first time he’s ventured onto a Barrington family-owned mine site. Liam has long-held grievances against the Barrington family that go all the way back to high school. Now he has a chance for revenge, and he has Hannah very firmly in his sights. Unaware of the reason behind Liam’s antagonism, Hannah’s left confused and angry over Liam’s unbending attitude. He seems determined to make an example of the Barringtons and close their mine. Not only will that cost millions in lost production, but it will also reflect badly on her and one thing she can’t stand is failure. She wished she could simply win the investigator over with her charm, but he seems immune to her attempts. Too bad she finds him so darned attractive. What will it take for him to call a truce and work with her, rather than do his best to ruin everything she’s worked so hard for? Come on a journey with USA Today bestselling author Chris Taylor and dive deep into the lives and loves of the Barrington Family. You won’t be disappointed. Start reading today!
