Peculiar in a Good Way
Being peculiar is not about horns, begins bestselling author Mary Ellen Edmunds. In this humorous but thought-provoking book, she explores what really makes a peculiar people and what sets us apart as distinct and different from the rest of the world. Others surely do notice things about us, she states, so what would it be like if we could be depended upon to live what we believe every inch and minute of our lives? Using the scriptures and personal experiences to help explain our uniqueness, Mary Ellen presents a positive and upbeat approach to making little changes that will help us strive to become better when were already pretty good.
A Good Life
This book is a story. It's a story about ordinary people in very different parts of the world dealing with rapid change in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. It's about times of turbulent and violent social upheaval and rupture with the past. It's about modern times. It's also about being human; what it is to be human in a modernising and globalising world; how, in responding to the circumstances of their times, different groups define, redefine, and attempt to put into practice their understandings of the good and of what constitutes a good life. And it's about how human rights have come to be not abstract universal principles but a practical source of consciousness and practice for real people.
