Caring Enough to Confront:How to Understand and Express Your Deepest Feelings Toward Others4 reviews
David W. Augsburger

Regal Books, 1980

Free from the guilt of Confrontation
Execllent book! Growing up, I was under the impression that confrontation was a negative thing - that if I confronted a person about an issue then that meant I was a bad person for having poor or hurt feelings. After I read "Caring Enough to Confront" I understood that confrontation could acutally be a positive response to negative behavior. I highly reccommend this book for anyone ...

Mike Adams

Sentinel HC, 2008

Misandry In Academentia Exposed - Again.
This book is an insightful and amusing ride along the Orwellian yellow brick road of Misandry (Hatred of Men, Masculinity and Normal Heterosexuality) in the pathetic farce that passes itself as Academentia, where Two Legs are Good, and Four Legs are proof that the Bruthish Raping Pale Male Pig Oppressor Partiarchy must be Destroyed BAMN BAMN = As in Bash Men, By Any Means Necessary. As a long ...

Atheism Remix: A Christian Confronts the New Atheists6 reviews
R. Albert Mohler, Jr.

Crossway Books, 2008

Instead of a requiem, there is a celebration!
Atheism Remix is a high quality book on the subject of the New Atheism. Dr. Mohler expertly traces the rise of the modern Atheism. He discusses the four horsemen of the New Atheism - Dawkins, Dennet, Harris and Hitchens - giving more attention to Dawkins than the others. The New Atheism, unlike past versions of the philosophy, is not mournful and dirge-like, but celebratory and bold. Dr. ...
  
  











  



  
A Choice of Enemies: America Confronts the Middle East5 reviews
Lawrence Freedman

PublicAffairs, 2008

intriguing look at America, its enemies, and their countless interrelations with one another
The black and white battle between good and evil is a common element of fantasy. But that's all it is - fantasy. "A Choice of Enemies: America Confronts the Middle East" is an examination of America's involvement in the growing conflicts with the middle east, conflicts which are almost as far from black and white as something can possibly be. Many of America's alleged 'enemies' are not in fact ...
  
  











  



  
Socrates Meets Jesus: History's Greatest Questioner Confronts the Claims of Christ24 reviews
Peter Kreeft

InterVarsity Press, 2002

Another Great one by Kreeft
This is another in a series by Kreeft that has Socrates reappearing in a modern day setting to challenge people with what they believe or why the live the way they do. So, much like his other books The Best Things In Life and The Unaborted Socrates, the names of people and places in this book are a series of puns and jokes. In this book, Socrates wakes up from what he assumed was his suicide in ...

William Paul Young

Oasis Audio, 2008

Inspiring Book - Makes You Think Outside of the Box
The Shack is an inspiring novel based on core spiritual truths. It is hard to put down once you begin reading it. I found my self laughing and crying at the same time. It makes you think outside of the box regarding God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. It shows how simple and beautiful real love is. You definitely will want to share it with friends and family. I did! I am waiting to get it back so I ...
  
  











  



  
Fixing Hell: An Army Psychologist Confronts Abu Ghraib5 reviews
Larry C. James

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

Fascinating Read!
Finally, someone who has actually been in Guantanamo Bay and Abu Ghraib is talking. This book addressed many of the controversial issues about the war today, namely psychologists and interrogations and the very uncomfortable topic regarding what happened in Abu Ghraib that led to those horrible pictures. Dr. James doesn't provide the military party line about the current administration and ...
  
  











  



  
New York for Sale: Community Planning Confronts Global Real Estate (Urban and Industrial Environments)
Tom Angotti

The MIT Press, 2008

Remarkably, grassroots-based community planning flourishes in New York City?the self-proclaimed "real estate capital of the world"?with at least seventy community plans for different neighborhoods throughout the city. Most of these were developed during fierce struggles against gentrification, displacement, and environmental hazards, and most got little or no support from government. In fact, community-based plans in New York far outnumber the ...
  
  











  



  
Scientists Confront Creationism: Intelligent Design and Beyond4 reviews

W. W. Norton, 2008

Scientists Separate Sense From Nonsense
This review was written after reading the hardcover edition - pick up the paperback now that it is available! Fervent fundamentalist religious groups (Jewish, Christian, or Islamic), have exhibited chronic allergies to science ever since Charles Darwin's "The Origin of Species" convincingly presented his theory of evolution by natural selection. Unweaving rainbows could be tolerated - but ...
  
  











  



  
The War Behind Me: Vietnam Veterans Confront the Truth about U.S. War Crimes2 reviews
Deborah Nelson

Basic Books, 2008

Please read before you join the military
This is a terrific book that should be in every high school career counselor's office. As the testimony of these American soldiers tells us, atrocity was not rare, but was the stuff of day-to-day life. It is no doubt part of the soldier's life in Iraq and Afghanistan. There is nothing noble about killing children and civilians, but that is what war is, and the many, many veterans from Vietnam who ...
  
  











  



  
Big Enough to Be Inconsistent: Abraham Lincoln Confronts Slavery and Race (The W. E. B. Du Bois Lectures)2 reviews
George M. Fredrickson

Harvard University Press, 2008

About Lincoln's flip-flopping
there is only one thing to say. He was big enough to be inconsistent. He was not going to be caught up in hobgoblins of little minds, apologies to RWE. It seems timely that we should consider this issue in our presidents when we are besieged by frightful scenarios of a president who might change his mind. How wonderful if we could have politicians who, regardless of what common sense, ...

A Better Country: Why America Was Right to Confront Iraq4 reviews

A worthy primer for the Iraq War debate
The book, titled "A Better Country: Why America Was Right To Confront Iraq" is published by Hamilton Books and tells the story of why we took Iraq seriously. Mr. Borden is a Democrat, and like so many others in his party, he's faced with the prospect that the facts behind the war have been dismissed, forgotten or twisted for political reasons. In 88 pages he outlines the intelligence, the ...
  
  











  



  
They Dare to Speak Out: People and Institutions Confront Israel's Lobby89 reviews
Paul Findley

Lawrence Hill Books, 2003

Harder Read But Most Worthy, Start with the Other Book
This book is a perfect counter-point to The Power of Israel in the United States. I review that book also, and recommend both books to every American, just as I also recommend the books that document how the Saudis have bought the Bush Family and the Republican and Democratic parties, neither of which represents We the People. Completely apart from the venal immorality of Dick Cheney (see my ...

Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela

Mariner Books, 2004

A Profound Reflection on our capacity for Reconciation
Pumla Gobodo-Madikezela reflects on central human issues such as the nature of individual and social evil, the possibility of social reconciliation, the individual's ability to move from participation in violent evil to remorse, and the capacity to meet one another with forgiveness. As urgent at these issues are, her narrative makes compelling reading -- both her accounts of her face-to-face ...
  
  











  



  
Secularism Confronts Islam
Olivier Roy

Columbia University Press, 2007

The denunciation of fundamentalism in France, embodied in the law against the veil and the deportation of imams, has shifted into a systematic attack on all Muslims and Islam. This hostility is rooted in the belief that Islam cannot be integrated into French& mdash;and, consequently, secular and liberal-society. However, as Olivier Roy makes clear in this book, Muslim intellectuals have made it possible for Muslims to live concretely in a ...
