A systematic presentation of the thought of the major Fathers and spiritual luminaries of the Christian East on the whole spectrum issues related to the spiritual life: the nature of God, cosmology, anthropology, the nature and means of repentance, purification and salvation, the virtues, stages of prayer, and contemplation. Take the ''systematic'' in the sub-title very seriously. This tome offers a thorough introduction to the world of eastern Christian spirituality, its terms, connections, and connotations, in which the edifice of all Christian belief is founded. Spidlik's Germanic rigor does no harm to this outline, and in fact reveals an inner logic in a tradition that many call ''mystical'' in order to avoid the labor of close examination. Spidlik is among the greatest living patristic scholars, and his careful, methodical approach makes the staggering range of material navigable. The fifty-four page bibliography of primary and secondary sources (for which the translator took many months to supply, when possible, available English editions) is a remarkably rich resource in itself. 473 pp. Almost as new - owner name inside, spine edges faintly rubbed, crisp binding, pristine text., Cistercian Publications, 3, Gyan Publishing House, 2020.

Virtue is the unequivocal basis of empowerment, fulfillment, and authentic self-belief. Everything else is deception. The key to every genuine achievement, success, and ultimately, happiness in life, is virtue. All the self-belief tomes and inspirational bestsellers notwithstanding we are doomed to failure without virtue. Whether it is our schools, our families, the boardrooms, our businesses, career, or financial judgments, or in the athletic arena, at the heart of every frustration plaguing our lives is lack of virtue. Devoid of virtue we chase very unhappy lives. Virtue is the one and only cure. The rest are lies and self-delusion. "The Delano Code" reveals how every human being can tap into the virtue dormant within and begin to move towards a life of excellence, balance, wisdom and peace and attain true happiness. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 189 pages ., Delcode Publishing, 2006, 4, lulu.com, 2011.

In the first major history of the Atlantic slave trade, not just slavery in America, Hugh Thomas penetrates myths that have obscured this topic for so long, revealing how slavery was, for centuries, the biggest business of all--an international growth industry that, for its day, dwarfed even the oil and defense industries in America. "Compellingly recounted". --"The New York Times". Publishers Weekly, 1997-11-10 This monumental study of one of the grimmest subjects in the history of Western civilization combines scholarship and good writing so effortlessly that few contemporary books can be compared to it. As Thomas (The Spanish Civil War) points out, the one voice not heard in his book is that of the slaves themselves. He's not interested in belaboring what we already know? that slavery is morally repugnant; instead he gives us a brilliant history of the business of slavery, an industry that thrived for over 400 years along the Atlantic rim. His account begins with the 15th-century African trade, dominated by Portugal and Spain. The book then enters the 17th and 18th centuries, when the trade was dominated by Protestant northern Europe, especially England and, later, the United States. Thomas covers slave ports in Africa, the shipping business, the manner in which goods were traded for slaves and the abolitionist movement (more in England than in the U.S.). The final sections focus on how the increased prohibition of the slave trade in the 19th century affected international relations and how, once slavery became illegal in some nations, conditions for the slaves became even worse. Perhaps for North Americans, the greatest lesson in the book is the realization that slavery was not a uniquely American problem., Simon & Schuster, 1997, 2<
