Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Someone once said that it is easier to imagine the end of the world than to imagine the end of capitalism. Michael Albert would disagree. Realizing Hope offers a speculative vision of a future beyond capitalism - an alternative to the exploitation of human labour, the unchecked destruction of the earth, and the oppression of all for the benefit of the few. Participatory economics - parecon for short - is Albert's concrete proposal for a classless economy, developed from anarchist principles first introduced by Kropotkin, Bakunin, Pannekoek and others. In this classic text, Albert takes the insights and hopes of parecon and enlarges them to address all key aspects of social life and society - gender, culture, politics, science, technology, journalism, ecology, and others. Realizing Hope provides vision to help us all together conceive a world that might be just over the horizon, a world we can begin building today.

Book excerpt: This book is an account and accumulation of information I have learned on my journey from the beginning to today. It also includes my testimony (how and why I came to Christ) and stories showing what happened to me afterward while journeying with God on my path of life. It talks about the steps I took (I believe the steps God wants all of us to follow) in becoming a disciple of Jesus Christ. It also talks to how I put that training into my everyday life. The most important aspect of this book in weaving my story throughout it is that it gives the reader my reasons why and shows the how-to everyone asks about. It will show the reader why the subtitle is "Conquering Your Fear of Change." I have been walking with the Lord for over thirty years (more than half of my life). I can now say that through my experiences, God truly loves me and has shown that to me countless times and that I trust him fully. I am now able to, every day, surrender my selfish will over to him and seek his guidance and direction (his will) for my life, no matter what the surrounding circumstances of life, to know that he loves me, wants me to be successful as a disciple of Jesus Christ, and is in control of life. I also know that all my prayers are being answered in his way and his timing. I may not ever see the result of my prayer, but I know he will answer each one. Don't you want that blessed assurance in your life? That hope to be able to change from who you were to who you are now and truly love yourself? Don't you want to feel that peace that passes all understanding each and every day along with the joy only God can offer? You can. Yes, even you can! So, come join me as you visit my journey. Hopefully, you learn God's truth so you can compare it to the world's lies and decide for yourself which you will follow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet Steve. As an entrepreneur and CEO of a once innovative and thriving tech company now on the brink of failure, Steve stands at a crossroad in his business and in his family life. He feels lost. He feels alone. And he is rapidly losing hope. But when a business trip detour leads him to an out-of-the-way 1950s-style diner called The Fork, Steve suddenly finds himself surrounded by the intoxicating smells of coffee, breakfast delights, and unusual and mouth-watering pies. Here Steve meets captivating characters including Jukebox Jack, Bobthecook, happy-go-lucky server Libby ... and Vance. Once a successful sales executive, Vance found himself on the outside of the corporate world looking in, unsatisfied, unfulfilled and lost like Steve. But unlike Steve, Vance has already found his path to a life of professional fulfillment - as a sales management consultant helping businesses like Steve's reach new levels of sales success. And when Vance overhears Steve's story in the diner, he knows he must help this business owner, too. Over cups of coffee and the occasional piece of pie that just might prompt a classic song on the jukebox, Vance helps Steve discover ways to increase sales and improve sales management. As the process unfolds, Steve begins to rediscover what matters most - to his team, to himself, and to his family. Above all, he begins to see the path to a place of purpose. A place of confidence. A place where his renewed hope can finally be realized. In Hope Realized: Finding the Path to Sales Success, Mark A. Thacker, author of the bestselling sales lesson adventure narrative, Beyond the Mountaintop, delivers a compelling business fable chock full of essential sales management and leadership lessons. Whether you are a business owner struggling to succeed or a seasoned sales professional seeking your own path to a rewarding "next act," Hope Realized cooks up satisfying insights.
Download or read book Hope in the Dark written by Rebecca Solnit and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2016-05-14 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[A] landmark book . . . Solnit illustrates how the uprisings that begin on the streets can upend the status quo and topple authoritarian regimes” (Vice). A book as powerful and influential as Rebecca Solnit’s Men Explain Things to Me, her Hope in the Dark was written to counter the despair of activists at a moment when they were focused on their losses and had turned their back to the victories behind them—and the unimaginable changes soon to come. In it, she makes a radical case for hope as a commitment to act in a world whose future remains uncertain and unknowable. Drawing on her decades of activism and a wide reading of environmental, cultural, and political history, Solnit argues that radicals have a long, neglected history of transformative victories, that the positive consequences of our acts are not always immediately seen, directly knowable, or even measurable, and that pessimism and despair rest on an unwarranted confidence about what is going to happen next. Now, with a moving new introduction explaining how the book came about and a new afterword that helps teach us how to hope and act in our unnerving world, she brings a new illumination to the darkness of our times in an unforgettable new edition of this classic book. “One of the best books of the 21st century.” —The Guardian “No writer has better understood the mix of fear and possibility, peril and exuberance that’s marked this new millennium.” —Bill McKibben, New York Times–bestselling author of Falter “An elegant reminder that activist victories are easily forgotten, and that they often come in extremely unexpected, roundabout ways.” —The New Yorker

Download or read book HOPE written by Joy P. Canady and published by Author House. This book was released on 2004-03-17 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would YOU like for God to do in YOUR life? In the book, Hope --Endings are sad. Beginnings are scary, so find comfort in knowing you can have ‘hope’ in the middle of any crisis, you can walk on a journey that may be familiar to you or someone you know and watch how God does answer prayers, even in the midst of hurt, and can allow you to see ‘light at the end of the tunnel’ or a rainbow after the rain. You can also watch God work through careers that, as some would say, are vehicles that allow God to use people for His glory. And, isn’t that what we’re ‘all’ supposed to be living for? If we concentrate on pleasing God, instead of everyone else, life becomes more peaceful and less confusing. Enjoy this journey........

Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Barack Obama’s lucid vision of America’s place in the world and call for a new kind of politics that builds upon our shared understandings as Americans, based on his years in the Senate “In our lowdown, dispiriting era, Obama’s talent for proposing humane, sensible solutions with uplifting, elegant prose does fill one with hope.”—Michael Kazin, The Washington Post In July 2004, four years before his presidency, Barack Obama electrified the Democratic National Convention with an address that spoke to Americans across the political spectrum. One phrase in particular anchored itself in listeners’ minds, a reminder that for all the discord and struggle to be found in our history as a nation, we have always been guided by a dogged optimism in the future, or what Obama called “the audacity of hope.” The Audacity of Hope is Barack Obama’s call for a different brand of politics—a politics for those weary of bitter partisanship and alienated by the “endless clash of armies” we see in congress and on the campaign trail; a politics rooted in the faith, inclusiveness, and nobility of spirit at the heart of “our improbable experiment in democracy.” He explores those forces—from the fear of losing to the perpetual need to raise money to the power of the media—that can stifle even the best-intentioned politician. He also writes, with surprising intimacy and self-deprecating humor, about settling in as a senator, seeking to balance the demands of public service and family life, and his own deepening religious commitment. At the heart of this book is Barack Obama’s vision of how we can move beyond our divisions to tackle concrete problems. He examines the growing economic insecurity of American families, the racial and religious tensions within the body politic, and the transnational threats—from terrorism to pandemic—that gather beyond our shores. And he grapples with the role that faith plays in a democracy—where it is vital and where it must never intrude. Underlying his stories is a vigorous search for connection: the foundation for a radically hopeful political consensus. Only by returning to the principles that gave birth to our Constitution, Obama says, can Americans repair a political process that is broken, and restore to working order a government that has fallen dangerously out of touch with millions of ordinary Americans. Those Americans are out there, he writes—“waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them.”
