Many people have the compassionate wish to benefit others, but few understand how to accomplish this effectively in daily life. Bodhisattvas are friends of the world who have such strong compassion that they are able to transform all their daily activities into methods to benefit others. The path of the Bodhisattva was exquisitely explained in the universally loved poem Guide to the Bodhisattva§s Way of Life by the 8th century master Shantideva. With this commentary by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche, the effectiveness and profundity of this way of life are clearly revealed and made practical for our modern world. – Publisher description.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/2141fd9e/meaningful-to-behold-geshe-kelsang-gyatso-9781910368497.jpg|9781910368497|Meaningful to Behold : Paperback : Tharpa Publications : 9781910368497 : 01 Jun 2017 : Many people have the compassionate wish to benefit others, but few understand how to accomplish this effectively in daily life.

Rejecting Winston Churchill’s jibe that Attlee was a ?modest little man with plenty to be modest about,? this biography makes the case that his reputation as Britain’s greatest reforming prime minister is fully deserved. Building on his earlier work on Attlee and including new research and stories, many of which are published here for the first time, Francis Beckett highlights Attlee’s relevance for a new generation. A poet and dreamer, Attlee led a remarkable political life that saw, among other challenges, the beginning of the Cold War.

Eight months later, India became a modern, free nation. The country he knew growing up in the 1960s has undergone vast and radical change. India today exports food, sends space probes to Mars, and, all too often, Indian businesses rescue their ailing competitors in the West. In From Midnight to Glorious Morning?, Bose travels the length and breadth of India to explore how a country that many doubted would survive has been transformed into one capable of rivaling China as the world’s preeminent economic superpower. Multifarious challenges still continue to plague the country: although inequality and corruption are issues not unique to India, such a rapid ascent to global prominence creates a precarious position. However, as Bose outlines, this rapid ascent provides evidence that India is ever capable of making great strides in the face of great adversity. Bose’s penetrating analysis of the last seventy years asks what is yet to be done for India in order to fulfill the destiny with which it has been imbued. The predictions of doom in August 1947 have proved to be unfounded; the growth of the nation in population and capital has been exponential, and there is much to celebrate. But Bose’s nuanced, personal, and trenchant book shows that it is naïve to pretend the hoped-for bright morning has yet dawned. |Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/bea9bfa5/from-midnight-to-glorious-morning-mihir-bose-9781910376690.jpg|9781910376690|From Midnight to Glorious Morning? : Paperback : Haus Publishing : 9781910376690 : 03 Jul 2017 : Mihir Bose was born in January 1947.

In A Life, she describes in vivid detail a childhood of happiness and innocence spent in Nice that came to an abrupt end in 1944 when, at the age of 17, she was deported with her family to concentration camps. Though she survived, her mother, father, and brother all died in captivity. After the liberation of Auschwitz and upon her return to France, Veil studied law and political science and later became Minister for Health under the government of Jacques Chirac. It was there that she fought a successful political battle to introduce a law legalizing abortion in France. She was elected the first female President of the European Parliament and later returned to French government as Minister for Social Affairs. Over her many years of service, Veil was a bastion of social progress and a powerful individual symbol for the advancement of women’s rights around the world. Veil was one of France’s most beloved public figures, most admired for her personal and political courage. Her memoir, published here in English for the first time, is a sincere and candid account of an extraordinary life and career, reflecting both her humanity and her determination to improve social standards at home and maintain economic and political stability in Europe. In the wake of her passing in 2017, this translation of her memoir stands as a fitting tribute to an unparalleled life of survival, selflessness, and unwavering public service. |Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/7aa5988e/a-life-simone-veil-9781910376966.jpg|9781910376966|A Life : Paperback : Haus Publishing : 9781910376966 : 04 Dec 2017 : Veil, one of France’s most beloved political figures, is admired for her personal and political courage,and enjoys respect from all political spectrums.|new|1|1|6|11.99|0|GBP|Simone Veil|The Armchair Traveller at the Bookhaus|04 Dec 2017|Autobiography: historical, political & military 9781910388181|Women in Mayo 1821-1851|13.32|https://wordery.com/women-in-mayo-1821-1851-maureen-langan-egan-9781910388181||Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/42a5bc34/women-in-mayo-1821-1851-maureen-langan-egan-9781910388181.jpg|9781910388181|Women in Mayo 1821-1851 : Paperback : Galvia : 9781910388181 : 18 Mar 2016|new|1|1|71|10.5|0|GBP|Maureen Langan-Egan|Carrigboy|18 Mar 2016|Social & cultural history 9781910378953|Scratch the World mi 2019|16.20|https://wordery.com/scratch-the-world-mi-2019-9781910378953|This is a brilliant concept map allowing visited destinations to be scratched off revealing the beautifully styled up to date world map underneath.

While there is increasing recognition that high quality teachers are crucial, this coexists with a persistent culture of blaming and shaming them. Student teachers will live out their careers within this maelstrom so need to be encouraged to consider the place of their profession both locally and globally, and teacher educators can support them to make a realistic yet ambitious analysis. This book answers a fundamental need for teachers to position themselves in their professional world. It uses an innovative Place Model to explore the professional learning of teachers, examining place in terms of both hierarchical status and as a cumulative journey of professional learning within ever expanding horizons. It looks at the nature of professionalism, why teacher status is important, where trainees might fit within the model and what infrastructure needs to be in place to support teachers’ career long professional learning.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/235eecca/teacher-status-and-professional-learning-linda-clarke-9781910391464.jpg|9781910391464|Teacher Status and Professional Learning : Paperback : Critical Publishing Ltd : 9781910391464 : 09 Feb 2016 : A key text for teacher educators exploring the concepts of status and professionalism and in particular how they can encourage their trainee …|new|1|1|1|20|0|GBP|Linda Clarke|Critical Publishing Ltd|09 Feb 2016|Teacher training 9781910376171|The European Identity|8.71|https://wordery.com/the-european-identity-stephen-green-9781910376171|What&;if anything&;do the twenty-eight member states of the European Union have in common? Amidst all the variety, can one even speak of a European identity? In this timely book, Stephen Green explores these questions and argues for the necessity of the European voice in the international community. Green points out that Europeans can readily define the differences that separate them from others around the globe, but they have yet to clearly define their own similarities across member states. He argues that Europe has something distinctive and vitally important to offer: the experience of a unique journey through centuries of exploration and conflict, errors and lessons, soul-searching and rebuilding&;an evolution of universal significance. Coming at a time when the divisions in European culture have been laid bare by recent financial crises and calls for independence, The European Identity identifies one of the biggest challenges for all of the member states of the European Union.|Books|https://wordery.com/jackets/66ef7e45/the-european-identity-stephen-green-9781910376171.jpg|9781910376171|The European Identity : Paperback : Haus Publishing : 9781910376171 : 01 Oct 2015 : Is there any such thing as a European identity?

It adds insight and understanding to the complex relationship that still exists between American Jews, Israel and the United States government. On a brisk winter day in 1913, Rae Landy boarded a ship headed to Palestine. Her final destination was Jerusalem, a desolate city filled with disease and poverty, languishing under the indifferent rule of the Ottoman Empire. Along with nursing partner Rose Kaplan, her mandate was to set up a district nursing system under the auspices of a new Zionist women’s organization called Hadassah. The two nurses braved tremendous hardships to bring hope and better health to the people of that ancient city. Arriving in Palestine full of high aspirations and ideals, the nurses were rapidly jolted to reality when faced with people’s deplorable living conditions and mistrust. They were shocked to see that many diseases were treated with magical spells and amulets. As the nurses slowly carved out a place for themselves in the city, gaining the loyalty and then the love of their patients, they enjoyed a lively social life with the many colourful personalities that lived in and visited Jerusalem. The sudden eruption of World War I was catastrophic for Palestine, particularly in Jerusalem, and brought a dramatic halt to their way of life. When Rose had to leave the country at the end of 1914, Rae was all alone, facing the onslaught of famine, starvation, and the never-ending misery of the people. *** I would highly recommend Winds over Jerusalem for a synagogue library. It would make a good gift book for anyone going into the medical profession and it is also a good choice to buy for a young adult." –AJL Newsletter, November/December 2017 [Subject: Jewish Studies, Gender Studies, Hadassah, Palestine Studies, History]
