ECPA BestsellerThe peace we long for begins with coming to the end of ourselves. There are inescapable aspects of life we are all marked by. We have less control than we want, more anxiety than we''re comfortable with and just enough insecurity to continually remind us of our shortcomings. To experience these things is to be human. We aren''t superheroes and invincibility isn''t an option.But humility is.Whether we''ve incorrectly defined it or underestimated its relevance to our daily life, humility is the missing piece for the security, strength and confidence we all want. It''s time to stop trying so hard to avoid our limitations or overcompensate for them. God has better for us and it begins with bowing low in humility.With relatable stories, practical wisdom and biblical theology broken down into digestible takeaways, The Hidden Peace by Dr. Joel Muddamalle will help you:Overcome the fear of being "found out" or looking like a fraud by realizing God''s intent for shortcomings and weaknesses.Walk through hurtful situations in the most God-honoring way by gaining a true understanding of biblical humility.Answer the question "why do bad things happen to good people?" by learning a perspective shift that will change how you process suffering.Know confidently that you''re living with purpose and being used by God through seven ways to practically live like Him today.Be led by the biblical definition of self-awareness so you can experience the unexpected ways it brings safety and security to your life.Stop believing the lie that theology is out of touch or too difficult to comprehend as Joel shows you how to dig into scripture and study it yourself. Weakness is not your enemy. Planted in the soil of humility, weakness becomes a means to gaining more strength and more peace.

The postcards in It’ll All Be Over By Christmas paint a picture of the First World War as experienced by those at home, at the front, in training, in hospital and in convalescence. These personal messages were sent from fathers to their wives and children, sons to family, friends and loved ones – sharing their thoughts, hopes and worries as well as the lighter side of life. There are cards from those at sea, in prisoner-of-war camps and those of the Central Powers.   Featuring over 150 illustrations, including some rare examples, the book also demonstrates how the postcard was ulitised to enlist volunteers and boost morale through humour, sentimentality and propaganda. Postcards encouraged support of the war effort through fundraising, sending ‘comforts’ to those on the front line and promoting practical roles for women.This fascinating book offers a profound insight into the experiences of war through postcards, as well the part that they played in promoting it.

The Viaduct Murder by Ronald Arbuthnott Knox is a witty mystery that explores themes of amateur investigation, the complexities of human nature, and the unexpected twists in seemingly simple situations. The story follows a group of unlikely investigators – a retired clergyman, a former don, a military intelligence officer, and a vacationing friend – who, after discovering a dead body while playing golf, decide to take the investigation into their own hands. Unwilling to trust the police, they embark on their own sleuthing adventure, relying on their individual skills, intelligence, and wit to unravel the mystery. Through its light-hearted yet engaging narrative, the book delves into themes of curiosity, trust, and the human tendency to question authority, particularly when faced with an unusual situation. The characters' diverse backgrounds bring humor and unique perspectives to the investigation, which often takes unexpected and entertaining turns. At its core, the story is about the importance of human connections, the value of teamwork, and the often humorous complexities that arise when ordinary people are thrust into extraordinary circumstances. This charming mystery offers a delightful blend of intrigue, character dynamics, and sharp humor.

Publishers Weekly"After over half a century of making pictures, Meyerowitz is noted as one of the most influential photographers living today.

Featured in the Times of Israel Holocaust survivor and licensed therapist Karmela Waldman shares brutally honest advice about life and death—often deploying brutally sharp wit—with her son and podcast co-host, Joel Waldman.Karmela Waldman is an eighty-something psychotherapist and Holocaust survivor. Her son, Joel Waldman, is a successful broadcast journalist. After a discontented Joel chooses to leave his network-news job, he gets a crazy idea for the next step in his career: What if he and his elderly mom did a podcast together? The two embark on creating a show together and name it Surviving the Survivor. Things get off to a bumpy start as the lovingly dysfunctional mother-son duo struggle to figure out the art of podcasting on the fly—sometimes feuding, sometimes laughing, and finally mastering the format and watching Surviving the Survivor break out as a wildly popular true-crime hit. Along the way, the two discover things about each other that they never knew. Joel is stunned to learn that Karmela survived World War II by hiding in a boys’ Catholic school. Karmela also sheds light on the emotional struggles she endured when Joel’s older brother, Rami, died of an incurable illness. She’s also struggling with the inevitable loss of her husband of sixty-three years, which she describes as the most difficult experience of her life. Mastering podcasting is one thing; figuring out the meaning of life is a challenge of an entirely different order. In real time and “on air,” mother and son engage frankly and movingly with each other for the first time as adults, discussing child-rearing, aging, illness, death, and the secrets to enjoying life no matter how complicated it gets.

This timely manifesto calls for a future free from gender-based assumptions about human potential. Written by the internationally renowned neuroscientist whose game-changing research debunks the myth of male and female brains.For generations we''ve been taught that women and men differ in profound ways. Women are supposedly more sensitive and cooperative, whereas men are more aggressive and sexual because this or that region in the brains of women is larger or smaller than in the brains of men, or because they have more or less of this or that hormone. This story seems to provide us with a neat biological explanation for much of what we encounter in day-to-day life. It''s even sometimes used to explain why, for example, most teachers are women and most engineers are men. But is it true? Using the ground-breaking results from her own lab and from other recent studies, neuroscientist Daphna Joel shows that it is not. Instead, argues Joel, every brain - and every human being - is a mosaic, or mixture, of ''female'' and ''male'' characteristics. With urgent practical implications for the world around us, this is a fascinating look at gender - how it works, its history and its future - and a sorely needed investigation into the false basis of our most fundamental beliefs. Perfect for readers of Mary Beard''s Women & Power, Cordelia Fine''s Testosterone Rex, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie''s We Should All Be Feminists and Gina Rippon''s The Gendered Brain. ''Brilliantly accessible. Gender Mosaic takes you on a fascinating scientific journey that will transform how you think about sex, gender and the brain.'' Cordelia Fine, author of Testosterone Rex''A power-packed manifesto that envisions what our world might look like if we let go of tired gender stereotypes.'' - Sarah Richardson, author of Sex Itself ''Gender Mosaic is the book I''ve been waiting for! Enlightening, funny and never dogmatic, Joel plumbs the science, offering great insights into how moving beyond that stale story of the male and female brain could improve medicine, education, careers and relationships.'' - Rebecca Jordan-Young, author of Brain Storm''Joel and Vikhanski offer a fascinating glimpse of what''s possible when we liberate ourselves from the myth of pink and blue brains.'' - Lise Eliot PhD, Professor of Neuroscience, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science''This is a fantastic book. It is one of the best books about sex, gender, biology, and the brain - and the social implications of these issues - that I have ever read. The writing is clear, captivating, and concise - and the content is groundbreaking. This is a visionary and brave book.'' - Rebecca S.
