Power and Love
“A profound book that offers us a wise way to negotiate our toughest group, community, and societal challenges.” —William Ury, New York Times-bestselling coauthor of Getting to Yes To try to solve their toughest problems, people either push for what they want at all costs or try to completely avoid conflict.

The Influential Christian
As Christians, each of us is called to bring people together through the Spirit of God. By developing our inner character—our heart—we can have a greater role in other people’s lives, and others can have more significance in our own growth as leaders. Genuine influence is a deep summons to our most authentic selves—an exciting exploration that is often missing in our culture of quick fixes and easy advice. In The Influential Christian, Michael W. Andrews reveals how engaging in spiritual practices that exercise empathy allows us to cultivate influence in our personal, professional, and spiritual lives. Drawing upon God’s spiritual resources as we interact with other people, we build the integrity necessary to be empathic leaders. As readers will discover, building character is much more than completing a checklist of self-improvement initiatives—it’s a pilgrimage into the full meaning of being human and being Christian.

The Implausible Rewilding of the Pyrenees
The return of large predators might help to reinvigorate nature. But are wild animals like wolves and bears compatible with livestock farming? Will their arrival destroy mountain communities? Unable to decide on the issues, Steve Cracknell climbs up to the isolated summer pastures of the Pyrenees to talk with those most concerned: the shepherds. He also meets hunters and ecologists - and goes looking for bears. In a book of relevance to the rewilding debate in Britain, the author shows how attitudes to the wild are bound up with cultural perceptions. Nobody has a monopoly of the truth.
