Joo de Deus Brasil's book comprises two independent but related works: Why I Believe in God and Atheism: a Self-Delusion. In Why I Believe in God, the author reveals the origins of his faith whereas in Atheism: a Self-Delusion he refutes atheists' arguments expressed by their current world leader, Richard Dawkins, in his best-seller God, a Delusion. Regarding the renowned biologist's ideas, Joo de Deus states: In his book, Richard Dawkins does not provide any theory capable of scientifically justifying his negation of God's existence. And besides, he does not put forward any evidence whatsoever, either scientific or empirical, in support of that nonexistence. Between the lines of his own wor...
Ordinary people, extraordinary deeds Not all heroes don sleek suits and capes before they set out to save the world. Whether it is fighting child labour, promoting world peace, alleviating hunger or saving forests from poachers, if you pledge your heart to a cause, there is nothing that will hold you back, not even your ‘commoner’ status. Lead the Change is filled with such stories of triumph of everyday champions, men and women, who contribute in their own way to make the world a better place, one small action at a time.

"HOW SMART DO YOU FEEL WITH YOUR SMARTPHONE? We live in exciting times. It is the first time in the history of humanity when a new intelligence exists - not in the brains of varied species, but in our own pockets. It is the first time in the history when a piece of technology is defining our friendships and changing the way we work, walk and talk. But as Thoreau once said, "Men have become the tools of their tools." Technology, which was supposed to make our lives easier and comfortable, is proving to be the biggest drivers of stress, loneliness, weakened brainpower, and behavioral addiction. We may have all the information at our finger touch, but we are failing to lead a happier life. In this book, the author uses real-life examples and case studies to identify the various ways technology and internet have changed our lives leading to the stick-to-the-screen syndrome, or commonly referred to as digital addiction and cyber addiction. The book explores methods for better tech management and principles to build a better structure for a happier and healthier life."
Allan Kardec explica estar a morte ligada ao instinto universal de 'conservação', comum a todos os seres vivos, destacando, porém, que, no plano do homem, manifesta-se pela presença da consciência. A presente obra analisa os dois tipos de morte: a concreta, quando a pessoa morre de fato e a simbólica, chamada de "morte em vida", relacionada por rupturas ou perdas que ocorrem durante a vida do ser humano (separação conjugal, a transição para a adolescência, a transição para a velhice, a perda da saúde). Um trabalho que nos traz, brilhantemente, uma nova ótica sobre o significado da "morte, da vida, da imortalidade e do luto", constituindo-se numa análise crítica, analítica, progressiva, livre-pensadora e oferecendo-nos profundas reflexões à luz da filosofia espírita.
A obra "O Cristo de Paulo de Tarso" -, do professor universitário José Lázaro Boberg é rica de referências de "experts" da Bíblia, da Teologia Cristã e do próprio Paulo, a qual deixa clara a interessante tese de que o Apóstolo dos Gentios era um gnóstico, demonstrado, pois, que o Cristo interno de Paulo é mais importante do que o seu nome Jesus de Nazaré, Cristo esse presente também em todos nós.
