3,000 Years of Love
Biography/ adventure/ social action?In this book I have brought together a private and a public story within the larger story of the lives of all of us. Some may say that, as convention dictates, I should have kept the three stories properly apart. I can only answer that love in its actuality, rather than the pale mirroring usually allowed us, knows no such boundaries. And surely, if ever stories of love across the boundaries that shut us off from one another are needed, it is in our world today.'So begins this remarkable story of the romance, return to Minoan Crete, and adventures in Greece, Italy, Germany, Africa, pioneering involvement in 20th and 21st century science and social action, a...

The Great Crowd
The Great Crowd is a social history of All Saints Episcopal Church of Omaha, Nebraska. Founded in 1885, precisely at the moment when Omaha was experiencing a spurt of rapid grown, the parish has continued to succeed as a religious community deeply enmeshed in the life of the city. It was from the beginning a distinctly urban parish and, as change came for the city, underwent its changes, including a major relocation of its facility. It also found itself navigating the changes in national culture and in the character of the larger Episcopal Church. Curiously, very different rectors--eight in all, with different configurations of lay leadership drawn from across the city--responded to these su...
The Cuckoo's Egg
In this white-knuckled true story that is “as exciting as any action novel” (The New York Times Book Review), an astronomer-turned-cyber-detective begins a personal quest to expose a hidden network of spies that threatens national security and leads all the way to the KGB. When Cliff Stoll followed the trail of a 75-cent accounting error at his workplace, the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, it led him to the presence of an unauthorized user on the system. Suddenly, Stoll found himself crossing paths with a hacker named “Hunter” who had managed to break into sensitive United States networks and steal vital information. Stoll made the dangerous decision to begin a one-man hunt of his own: spying on the spy. It was a high-stakes game of deception, broken codes, satellites, and missile bases, one that eventually gained the attention of the CIA. What started as simply observing soon became a game of cat and mouse that ultimately reached all the way to the KGB.
(e)Pedagogy - Visual Knowledge Building
The accelerating «iconic turn» in our society today increasingly demands the interactive representation of contextual knowledge. At the same time the use of Web based learning environments highlight the audio-visual dimension of (e)pedagogy and the move towards practical, project-oriented curricula. Regardless of the educational field pedagogical expertise thus requires more and more understanding and control of visual elements and their interpretations. There is a growing need for visually oriented pedagogical experts such as teachers, tutors, designers and developers who are capable of community knowledge building and collaboration with other experts from different fields from both private and public sectors. The book intends to illuminate scientific and programmatic excerpts from an international community of researchers, practitioners, teachers and scholars working in interrelated fields such as Aesthetic Education, ePedagogy Design - Visual Knowledge Building, Visual Education, Art Education, Media Pedagogy and Intermedia Art Education.

The Real Wealth of Nations
The author of The Chalice and the Blade proposes a new economics based on care in this “impressive work that's . . . well argued, insightful and hopeful” (Publishers Weekly). Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations provided the first explanation of the workings of modern economics. But with his focus on "the market" as the best mechanism for producing and distributing the necessities of life, Smith's concepts only told part of the story, leading to flawed economic models that devalue activities that fall outside of the market's parameters of buying and selling. The real wealth of nations, Riane Eisler argues, is not merely financial, but includes the contributions of people and our natural en...
