Escaping the Progress Trap
The Progress Trap? As the name implies, it is the condition in which we find ourselves when science, technology and industry create more problems than they can solve. Often inadvertently. Many experts have warned about the resulting ecological crisis. The prophets of doom have spoken and alarm bells have sounded. Some critics are even optimistic, but they have no plan. They have not provided a detailed analysis of why humans fall into progress traps. They have not put forward what is necessary for emerging from them. Until now. Find out why societies have a tendency to become entangled in their own ingenuity. Then learn how well-equipped we humans are for resolving the environmental quandary, and other traps. Finding our way out of this predicament is a vital idea, when we learn how to nurture and use our talent for creative-problem-solving.
Radical and Free
This book is the result of two preached retreats I gave to mark the recent Year of Consecrated Life (2015). However, the origin of the material goes much further back, drawing on my teaching experience both at Manresa Centre of Spirituality and at Milltown Institute (covering a period of thirty years). In both places I had taught courses on religious life – its history, theology, and most of all its underlying spirituality. Indeed, I have always used history and theology (and other disciplines such as psychology and anthropology) in service of exploring and renewing the spirituality of religious life. Another way of saying this is that I am above all interested in values (as appreciated, a...

Applied Psychology in Everyday Life
The practice of psychology involves more than the clinical treatment of mental illness. Although the media may perpetuate the view that all psychologists are healthcare professionals, or specialists who deal with deviant or non-normal behaviors, the majority of psychologists study and practice in diverse areas of human functioning other than clinical psychology. Psychology is the scientific study of human thought and behavior, all human behavior. It is a science with the same rigorous research standards as physics, chemistry, or biology. This book showcases a variety of applications of psychological science in the areas of health, law, sports, business, religion, and money. It is an outgrowth of the River Cities Industrial-Organizational Psychology Conference held at The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, USA, in October 2008. The theme of the 2008 conference was “Applying Psychology to Everyday Life.” We hope the content of this volume enhances your awareness of the importance of applied psychology and that it motivates you to further explore its potential to impact our daily lives.
Project Space Station
Brian O'Leary, writer, astrophysicist, and former astronaut, describes the "tinkermodules" that will be carried to the earth's orbit to be assembled as a space station. His inside track information also lays the groundwork for fascinating disclosures on: Space station history, NASA's studies and plans, space careers and human potential, commerce and homesteading in space, odds of a space war, spacelab, space station architecture, space factories and hotels, soviet space station programs, colonies and exploration. Unique and timely, Project Space Station gives you a distinctive foretaste of a new era in which homesteading asteroids, growing huge silicon crystals in weightless factories--and the possibility of real star wars--will be a way of life.

He uses his unique credentials and expertise as a physicist, new scientist, author, speaker, and energy advisor to bring forward concrete solutions to our global dilemma.
