This unique anthology presents the largest collection of these tales ever assembled.

This book will change how you think about Fidel Castro. Until now, biographers have treated Castro's life like prosecutors, scouring his past for evidence to convict a person they don't like or don't understand. This can make for bad history and unsatisfying biography. Young Castro challenges listeners to put aside the caricature of a bearded, cigar-munching, anti-American hothead to discover how Castro became the dictator who acted as a thorn in the side of US presidents for nearly half a century.

People are broken. We don't understand each other; we often can't even tolerate each other. I believe the value of free speech is found where it is used to foster understanding. Join me here as I explore the unpopular opinions of those around me in an attempt to unpack why they think the way they do. Hopefully, you and I both will be able to open our minds and appreciate the value of diversity of thought as we seek to understand my guests.

In Storms of My Grandchildren, James Hansen - the nation's leading scientist on climate issues - speaks out for the first time with the full truth about global warming: the planet is hurtling even more rapidly than previously acknowledged to a climatic point of no return. Although Hansen was Al Gore's science adviser for the 2006 documentary An Inconvenient Truth, his recent data shows that our situation is even more dire today.

Jørgen K.’s korte liv kom til at centrere sig om Det teologiske fakultet i Århus, hvor han tog sin uddannelse og havde sit virke. Han interesserede sig især for fire områder: videnskabsteori og hermeneutik, herunder digtningens rolle; teologi og religiøs tro; menneskesynet, hin enkelte, ikke mindst som det bliver reflekteret hos Søren Kierkegaard; og endelig synet på samfundet og institutionerne.

Lane Evans was arguably one of the most progressive members of the US Congress during his 12-term tenure in a Midwestern swing district. In Guts: The Lane Evans Story, author Devin Hansen explores Lane's career as a man who had the guts to vote his conscience rather than what was politically expedient.

Probably no book published in the last decade has been so ambitious as Charles Taylor’s A Secular Age. He seeks nothing less than to account for the spread of secularism and decline of faith in the last 500 years. Now a remarkable roster of writers - including Carl Trueman, Michael Horton, and Jen Pollock Michel - considers Taylor’s insights for the church’s life and mission, covering everything from healthcare to liturgy to pop culture and politics. Nothing is easy about faith today. But endurance produces character, and character produces hope, even in our secular age.

Din datter fylder snart 18 år, og du vil give hende et kørekort i fødselsdagsgave. Der er tre køreskoler i jeres by, og du undersøger priserne.

I de byer, hvor der er et godt erhvervsklima, er der også vækst. Lokal vækst kræver, at offentlige aktører, private virksomheder og borgere med viden og ressourcer går sammen i en fælles retning. Lokal udvikling skal ledes aktivt og kompetent og i tæt samarbejde med dem, der har ressourcerne - på rådhuset, i de private virksomheder og ude hos borgerne.

"Men det værste var, at mama ikke havde andre at betro sig til og øse sin sorg ud over end mig. Alle de gange, hvor jeg sad og læste lektier for den ene bordende i køkkenet, og hun sad og arbejdede ved den anden bordende. Selvfølgelig var hun lige så fortvivlet som jeg. Men mens jeg altid bar det hele for mig selv, kunne hun bedst finde lindring ved at snakke om det. Så hun jamrede og beklagede sig og kunne ikke forstå, hvad hun havde gjort, siden hun skulle straffes sådan.

I 1957 rejste etnograf og socialantropolog Henny Harald Hansen med en arkæologisk ekspedition til den kurdiske del af Irak for at undersøge, hvordan folk levede i små muslimske samfund. Som kvinde var Henny Harald Hansen en atypisk opdagelsesrejsende i sin tid, og hun blev da også behandlet med en vis skepsis og undren i starten af sin rejse. Men det var måske også netop på grund af hendes køn, at hun endte med at få en særlig adgang til de tørklædebærende kvinders privatliv i landsbyen.
