 On the Future of our Educational Institutions Provocative Proposals for Modern Education【電子書籍】[ Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞In Friedrich Nietzsche's book, 'On the Future of our Educational Institutions,' the author explores the shortcomings of contemporary educational systems and proposes radical ideas for reform. Written in a philosophical and polemical style, Nietzsche challenges conventional wisdom and advocates for a more individualistic and creative approach to education. The book reflects Nietzsche's critiques of traditional morality and his belief in the power of personal growth and self-discovery. Through a series of lectures, Nietzsche delves into the role of education in shaping society and the importance of cultivating critical thinking and intellectual independence in students. His writing is characterized by its sharp wit and provocative rhetoric, making it a challenging but rewarding read for those interested in educational philosophy and social criticism. Nietzsche's own experiences as a professor and his disillusionment with the academic establishment likely influenced his passionate ideas about the need for educational reform. Overall, 'On the Future of our Educational Institutions' is a thought-provoking and enlightening work that offers valuable insights into the nature of learning and personal development.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 460円 |

 But That's Ridiculous! A Provocative Look at Human Error【電子書籍】[ Philip Holt ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book is intended for people who like to ＜em＞think, discuss, argue＜/em＞. Its theme is human error. Unfortunately this is ever-present; it occurs throughout our history, in all areas.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The errors targeted here are quite 'ordinary'. They are ones that can occur to thoughtful people through reading the news, watching TV, going to work, discussion with friends and colleagues, and generally just pondering. The topics discussed range from everyday things like sport, education and transport, to a few more serious subjects like religion and the moral law. Readers will almost certainly have had similar (and no doubt similarly critical) thoughts to the author on some if not all of these matters.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Quite often the stance is deliberately controversial, provocative ? thinking, or arguing, 'outside the box'. But ? as the title implies ? an attempt is always made to show that the normal, standard way of looking at things is flawed, irrational. Readers will not always agree with the line taken, but it is hoped that considering the arguments will be challenging and enjoyable.＜/p＞ ＜p＞One point should perhaps be made: it needs to be realised that the 'sufferers', so to speak, from error, are normally unaware of their condition! If they were aware of it, they would no doubt correct their false beliefs. No one, presumably, wants to be deluded. But beliefs ? certainly long-established ones ? have remarkable ＜em＞staying power＜/em＞, and this means that it can be very difficult, both to alter one's own views, and to convince other people that they are mistaken.＜/p＞ ＜p＞An ＜em＞open mind＜/em＞ is therefore essential, if the arguments in the book are to be assessed fairly.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Readers will be glad to hear that ＜em＞no specialised knowledge is required＜/em＞, and there are no irritating references to other books which are probably unfamiliar. Technical terms are avoided throughout.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Dr Philip Holt has taught philosophy, mathematics and physics, and is the recipient of the Joad Prize for philosophy. He is the author of a recent book, ＜em＞God: The Case Against＜/em＞, published by Sussex Academic Press.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 550円 |

This collection of essays by eight leading academics - written for sixth-form students and the general public alike - sets the play firmly in its historical and social context, while exploring Aristophanes' purpose in writing it and considering the responses of modern audiences and directors. The collection has been assembled and edited by David Stuttard, whose energetic new performing version of the play is included in this volume.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Contributors include: Alan Beale; Edith Hall; Lorna Hardwick; James Morwood; Martin Revermann; James Robson; Alan H.

 The Provocative Church 4th Edition【電子書籍】[ Graham Tomlin ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Sometimes Christians assume that people 'out there' are eager to listen to what the Church has to offer. But why should those we try to evangelize want to hear the gospel? Surely people will only be intrigued by Christian life and community when they see something provocative or attractive. Then they will want to know what's going on. The Provocative Church offers a liberating understanding of evangelism as a corporate activity, in which all the gifts needed to enact the life of the kingdom - to stir people into asking, 'What does this mean?' - are spread throughout the whole Church. It encourages the development of a theology of conversion that sees beyond 'becoming a Christian' to bring each individual life increasingly under the rule of God. 'The Provocative Church is about an evangelism that begins with the kingdom, not the Church. Graham Tomlin helps us see that the New Testament, while not saying much about evangelism itself, does have an awful lot to say about new life in Christ. The work of the Church is to demonstrate what this new life looks like. This in turn will provoke a response, and it is in the dialogue that follows that real evangelism takes place. [This volume] is one of the best, most honest, most theologically grounded and therefore most practically helpful books on evangelism to have come out in recent years.' Stephen Cottrell, Bishop of Chelmsford 'A refreshingly honest book from a theologian who clearly knows that most of society doesn't think the way the church does, and wants to do something about it.'

 Surprised by Hope Original, provocative and practical【電子書籍】[ Tom Wright ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞＜strong＞What do Christians hope for? To leave this wicked world and go to 'heaven'?

 The Provocative Barbarian【電子書籍】[ Samuel W. Geissinger Jr. ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Some will question what kind of man would volunteer during war time to enter into the United States Air Force in a law enforcement field and remain until retirement at age thirty-seven and help form a new United States Air Force while in conflict with North Korea, Vietnam, and the Bay of Pigs. Some will say that it’s barbaric even to temporarily adopt the characteristic of barbarism working undercover as a deputy United States sky marshal flying all over the world on Trans World Airlines, (TWA), owned by Howard Hughes, to protect our largest commercial (747) aircraft with three hundred fifty passengers and crew aboard from air piracy. We visited a different country every twenty four hours. They would also say the same for assuming a similar role as an undercover narcotics agent in the Bureau of Narcotics, Pennsylvania, office of attorney general, retiring again at age sixty-five with twenty-five years of duty. The barbarian role was assumed so often that sometimes it was difficult to put it down. There were critters (that’s not nice), people that I had to work with; rats (that’s not nice); and animals (that’s not nice either) that had to be arrested because they were very dangerous to our society. Sometimes my role was so important that I got arrested right along with everyone else during a big drug raid, just to protect the identity of the barbarian. I have to own the name of the barbarianーthat’s obvious, but you’ll have to read on if you’re interested in a career that I’ve described to find out why it’s also provocative.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 452円 |

 Evolving God A Provocative View on the Origins of Religion【電子書籍】[ Barbara J. King ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Religion has been a central part of human experience since at least the dawn of recorded history. The gods change, as do the rituals, but the underlying desire remainsーa desire to belong to something larger, greater, most lasting than our mortal, finite selves.＜/p＞ ＜p＞But where did that desire come from? Can we explain its emergence through evolution? Yes, says biological anthropologist Barbara J. Kingーand doing so not only helps us to understand the religious imagination, but also reveals fascinating links to the lives and minds of our primate cousins. ＜em＞Evolving God＜/em＞ draws on King’s own fieldwork among primates in Africa and paleoanthropology of our extinct ancestors to offer a new way of thinking about the origins of religion, one that situates it in a deep need for emotional connection with others, a need we share with apes and monkeys. Though her thesis is provocative, and she’s not above thoughtful speculation, King’s argument is strongly rooted in close observation and analysis. She traces an evolutionary path that connects us to other primates, who, like us, display empathy, make meanings through interaction, create social rules, and display imaginationーthe basic building blocks of the religious imagination. With fresh insights, she responds to recent suggestions that chimpanzees are spiritualーor even religiousーbeings, and that our ancient humanlike cousins carefully disposed of their dead well before the time of Neandertals.＜/p＞ ＜p＞King writes with a scientist’s appreciation for evidence and argument, leavened with a deep empathy and admiration for the powerful desire to belong, a desire that not only brings us together with other humans, but with our closest animal relations as well.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 1,936円 |
 2021 U.S. Intelligence Community Worldwide Threat Assessment: China's Push for Global Power; Provocative Actions by Russia, Iran, North Korea; COVID-19, Diseases, Climate Change, Cyber Threats, Organized Crime, Terrorism【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction, this is a reproduction of the 2021 U.S. Intelligence Community Worldwide Threat Assessment, presented before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, April 14, 2021. In addition to the 2021 assessment, this compilation includes the 2019, 2018 and 2017 worldwide threat assessments for comparison and historical reference. (Note that there was no assessment issued in 2020, apparently because intelligence agencies wanted to avoid conflict with the Trump administration.)＜/p＞ ＜p＞Director Director Avril Haines, Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), opened with these remarks:＜/p＞ ＜p＞During the past year, the COVID-19 Pandemic demonstrated the inherent risks of high levels of interdependence and in coming years, as reflected in our recently issued Global Trends Report, we assess that the world will face more intense and cascading global challenges ranging from disease to climate change, to disruptions from new technologies and financial crises. As we note in that report "[t]hese challenges will repeatedly test the resilience and adaptability of communities, states, and the international system, often exceeding the capacity of existing systems and models. This looming disequilibrium between existing and future challenges and the ability of institutions and systems to respond is likely to grow and produce greater contestation at every level."＜/p＞ ＜p＞For the Intelligence community, this insight compels us to broaden our definition of national security, develop and integrate new and emerging expertise into our work, deepen and strengthen our partnerships, and learn to focus on the long-term strategic threats while simultaneously addressing urgent crises. In short, at no point has it been more important to invest in our norms and institutions, our workforce, and the integration of our work. Doing so, provides us with the opportunity to meet the challenges we face, to pull together as a society, and to promote resilience and innovation.＜/p＞ ＜p＞And as we evolve, you will see our efforts to more effectively integrate longer-term destabilizing trends into our daily work, thereby promoting strategic foresight and a deeper understanding of the threats we face, which we hope will help the policy community effectively prioritize their work to address the issues we seek to present.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Against this backdrop, the Annual Threat Assessment describes an array of threats we are facing in the coming year, beginning with those emanating from key state actors.

It's a provocative and practical guide to STANDiNG UP & STANDiNG OUT in a crowded world.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞If UNCOMMODiFiED is just a book you read, you missed the point. If it is just a chat with a whiskey-drinking, cigar and pipe-smoking kind of guy, even a rather uncomfortable chat at times that will not be good enough. If it is just a candid conversation between you, me and my UNCOMMODiFiED mentors that stays on the pages of this book, that will not make any difference in your life. To be UNCOMMODiFiED, day-to-day, you must take the ideas, strategies, and examples you read and initiate positive and provocative actions that release the best version of yourself, the unique Homo sapien you are designed to be.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Being run of the mill. Being ordinary. Being mundane. Not an option for me. And, as you will discover, these traits are not options for the UNCOMMODiFiED provocateurs whom you will meet on your journey with me. Along the way, you will encounter some of the people who have caught my attention over the years in both mystical and magical ways. They are inspiringly different, positively provocative, utterly unique, and outstanding in their approaches to possibilities and problems, how they lead and work, and how they live their lives. They stand apart in the best, most positive ways, in ways that can be transformational for all of us. They are beckoning all of us to NOT surrender our uniqueness and NOT give into homogeneity because they know that this surrender will ultimately and utterly infuse our veins with the anesthetizing power of sameness.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞REVIEWS & THOUGHTS ...＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Windsor writes with welcome verve, his prose continually backing up his arguments in favor of standing out. "Rage at the cage," he writes, of the individual prisons in which our true selves may languish, "And annoy the hell out of your prison guards." The advice is warm and frank, as Windsor acknowledges the hard work of leaving one's comfort zone and tasks readers with taking an unflinching look at themselves, their choices, and the "untruths" that we may tell ourselves to justify not making changes, like "Just keeping your head down will get you noticed." With persuasive power Windsor anticipates and addresses excuses that readers might muster. Above all, through fresh tools (like the three Rs, "Reality, Responsibility, and Response") and probing questions, Windsor convincingly champions standing out from the crowd in a positive way. ＜strong＞Takeaway:＜/strong＞ Unorthodox but inspiring guide to standing out rather than being a "commodity." ＜strong＞... PUBLISHERS WEEKLY - BOOKLIFE REVIEW＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Buy and read Uncommodified by Tim Windsor. Have a friend who is a breath of fresh air to you? Irreverent, salty, witty, outrageous, vulnerable, wise and refreshingly direct? If you do, you will love this book. If you don't - you need to get out more - but if you can't - invite this book in as a new friend. But be aware, this friend/book is a goad - not a salve, smelling salts - not perfume, the eagle who kicks you out of your cozy nest - not the mother hen who nestles you under her wings. I got mine Friday night (October 13, 2023, at Tim's amazing book launch party) and finished it Sunday evening. As I turned the last page, I was already starting to miss its presence. Good news for me - all my dogeared pages, highlights and notes will remind me of my friend for weeks to come." ＜strong＞...＜/strong＞ ＜strong＞BRADY WILSON (Thought Leader, Author, & Co-Founder of Juice Inc.)＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 906円 |

 The Medieval Python The Purposive and Provocative Work of Terry Jones【電子書籍】 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This is a collection of essays by diverse hands engaging, interrogating, and honoring the medieval scholarship of Terry Jones. Jones' life-long engagement with the Middle Ages in general, and with the work of Chaucer in particular, has significantly influenced contemporary understanding of the period generally, and Middle English letters in particular. Both in film of all types - full-feature comedy (Monty Python and the Holy Grail) as well as educational television series for BBC, the History Channel, etc. (e.g., Medieval Lives) - and in his published scholarship (e.g., Chaucer's Knight, in original and revised editions, Who Murdered Chaucer?), Jones has applied his unique combination of carefully researched scholarship, keen intelligence, fearless skepticism of establishment thinking, and his broad good humor to challenge, enlighten and reform. No one working today in either Middle English studies or in period-related film and/or documentary can proceed untouched by Jones' purposive, provocative views. Jones, perhaps more than any other medievalist, can be said to be an integral part of what Palgrave deems the "common dialogue."＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 6,076円 |

 Africanitis A Provocative and Critical Analysis of Issues and Opportunities for Africa【電子書籍】[ Ayukepi J. Ayukekbong ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Africa is a continent that has been traumatized from the period of slavery and colonization and continues to be ensnarled in the hook of neocolonialism. It's the most diverse continent in the world in terms of ethnic and linguistic variations, with over three thousand tribes speaking more than two thousand languages in fifty-four countries. This diversity is also reflected in the difference in economic performance from one country to another. However, with much concerted efforts, the old narrative of a continent characterized by poverty, war, despair, and corruption is fading away, with new opportunities emerging.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Based on extensive travel experience by the author, numerous years of research about the continent, and interviews with several experts, Africanitis presents a historical connection of Africa with the world and discusses current issues in the continent. These issues include the threat of natural disasters, emerging infectious diseases, food insecurity, civil unrest, corruption, foreign aid, and weak economic systems. The author also presents key areas of opportunity, such as diaspora mobilization, biotechnology, sustainable natural resource management, and educational and digital transformation of the continent.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Africanitis is unique because it's written by an individual of African origin and offers a non-biased perspective from which global citizens and Africans alike should view Africa. Particularly, the book invites readers to view Africa as a continent that is making conscious efforts to wean itself from foreign aid and the largesse of its colonizers or multilateral organizations, instead seeking genuine international partners. In this regard, Chinese penetration and interest in Africa is also extensively discussed. Overall, the author presents a nuanced, fact-based perspective of the vast opportunities available in the continent to be explored.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 856円 |
