Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller “I’ll be forever changed by Dr. Eger’s story…The Choice is a reminder of what courage looks like in the worst of times and that we all have the ability to pay attention to what we’ve lost, or to pay attention to what we still have.”—Oprah “Dr. Eger’s life reveals our capacity to transcend even the greatest of horrors and to use that suffering for the benefit of others. She has found true freedom and forgiveness and shows us how we can as well.” —Desmond Tutu, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate “Dr. Edith Eva Eger is my kind of hero. She survived unspeakable horrors and brutality; but rather than let her painful past destroy her, she chose to transform it into a powerful gift—one she uses to help others heal.” —Jeannette Walls, New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Castle Winner of the National Jewish Book Award and Christopher Award At the age of sixteen, Edith Eger was sent to Auschwitz. Hours after her parents were killed, Nazi officer Dr. Josef Mengele, forced Edie to dance for his amusement and her survival. Edie was pulled from a pile of corpses when the American troops liberated the camps in 1945. Edie spent decades struggling with flashbacks and survivor’s guilt, determined to stay silent and hide from the past. Thirty-five years after the war ended, she returned to Auschwitz and was finally able to fully heal and forgive the one person she’d been unable to forgive—herself. Edie weaves her remarkable personal journey with the moving stories of those she has helped heal. She explores how we can be imprisoned in our own minds and shows us how to find the key to freedom. The Choice is a life-changing book that will provide hope and comfort to generations of readers.
Download or read book Lecretia s Choice written by Matt Vickers and published by Text Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A successful young lawyer in Wellington, Lecretia Seales met and fell in love with Matt Vickers in 2003. In Lecretia’s Choice, Matt tells the story of their life together, and how it changed when his proud, fiercely independent wife was diagnosed with a brain tumour and forced to confront her own mortality. The death she faced—slow, painful, dependent—was completely at odds with how she had lived her life. Lecretia wanted to die with dignity, to be able to say goodbye well, and not to suffer unnecessarily—but the law denied her that choice. With her characteristic spirit, she decided to mount a challenge in New Zealand’s High Court, but as the battle raged, Lecretia’s strength faded. She died on 5 June 2015, at the age of forty-two, the day after her family learned that the court had ruled against her. Lecretia’s Choice is not only a moving love story but compulsory reading for everyone who cares about the dignity we afford terminally ill people who want to die on their own terms. In 2015 Matt Vickers supported his wife, Lecretia Seales, in her campaign to gain the right to choose how she died. Lecretia’s Choice is his first book. ‘This is a brave, intimate book, both agonizing and uplifting, and unflinchingly honest.’ Andrew Solomon, National Book Award winner, president of PEN American Center ‘Matt Vickers asserts “stories are the most powerful force in the universe.” This is the story of his wife, Lecretia, and her extraordinary advocacy in the face of ordinary tragedy. It will help change the world.’ Barbara Coombs Lee, President of Compassion and Choices USA ‘A tragic story, heart-breaking; so beautifully written...Lecretia’s Choice was an almost un-put-downable book. Every home should have a copy, for a reminder, if nothing more, of what it is to have heart, humility and hope.’ Off the Tracks ‘A very human story... Articulate, thought provoking, honest and poignant.’ Page & Blackmore Booksellers ‘“The unwinding skein of her life was blowing free in the wind, and it tormented her.” If the case for assisted dying could be won through emotional appeals, this sentence would surely clinch it...Vickers is an assured writer who knows the importance of letting the moment speak for itself.’ Sydney Morning Herald

Download or read book Creation A Scientist s Choice written by Zola Levitt and published by Zola Levitt Ministries. This book was released on 1976-01-01 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Read Journalist Zola Levitt’s fascinating interview with Dr. Moore, professor of natural science at Michigan State University and see how it can help you. Dr. Moore is a professor who dares to expose his students to both the creation and evolution models… then lets them draw their own conclusions about origins. Though he once used only evolution to explain the origin of the universe, after years of study he now asks some pointed questions: 1. Is it really scientific to call the evolution model a “theory” or a “hypothesis”? 2. How does it affect school children when evolution is taught as fact? 3. Does the way we believe about how man got here on earth make any difference in how we treat other people? 4. Is it really fair to say that the creation model is a purely religious or philosophical belief? Isn’t belief in evolution also a system of faith? A truly thought-provoking interview with a noted scientist.

She bravely enters his world and casts a bright light, pure and captivating, into the blackness in which he lives.

Will this new world of acceptance she opened his heart to give him enough strength, and the courage he will need to create a new destiny, one that would replace the one he has always known as the bad boy of Aurelias Park?

Download or read book International Studies written by Stanley Toops and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a much-needed classroom text in international studies that is genuinely interdisciplinary in its approach. International Studies focuses specifically on five core disciplines; history, geography, anthropology, political science and economics, and describes them in relation to one another, as well as their individual and collective contributions to the study of global issues. The expert authors also emphasize the continuing importance of area studies within an interdisciplinary and global framework, applying its interdisciplinary framework to substantive issues in seven regions: Europe, East Asia and the Pacific, South and Central Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East and North Africa, Latin America and North America. This new edition has been completely updated and substantially revised with two new chapters on Media, Sovereignty and Cybersecurity and Sustainable Development. This disciplinary and regional combination offers a useful and cohesive framework for teaching students a substantive and comprehensive approach to understanding global issues.
