Couture, Suzanne En Accord Parfait Avec Soi Montreal Canada Quebecor 2010 2764016433 Soft cover Very Good Book 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Couverture souple, texte francais. 132 pages. Lorsque des événements heureux surviennent dans notre vie, nous croyons qu'il s'agit d'un coup de pouce de l'Univers. Quand la situation nous afflige, nous pensons souvent que ce collègue, ce directeur, cette belle-sour ou ce voisin désagréable est à l'origine de notre malheur. En d'autres mots, nous avons tendance à considérer que nous ne sommes pas responsable de ce qui nous arrive. Dans ce livre, Suzanne Couture nous demande?: «?Et si nous avions créé les situations que nous vivons et les relations que nous avons???» L'auteure révèle ici que tout ce qui nous est agréable résulte d'un accord avec nous-même et que l'inverse provient de nos désaccords profonds. C'est en rétablissant la liaison naturelle intérieure que nous pourrons entendre les messages et les réponses qui nous corres-pondent. Ainsi, nous découvrirons qu'il s'agit simplement d'être en accord parfait avec nous-même. Originaire de Granby en Estrie, Suzanne Couture parcourt le Québec depuis 2002 pour animer des conférences et des formations. En 2004, à la suite de nouvelles formations, elle comprend que la meilleure façon d'aborder le décodage des malaises et des maladies repose sur la communication que l'on établit avec soi et avec les autres. 083996 Price:

Crossan, John Dominic The Essential Jesus: Original Sayings and Earliest Images New York, New York, U.S.A. Book Sales 1998 0785809015 First Edition Hardcover Fine Fine Book 8vo - over 7¾ in. - 9¾ in.Tall With a concise gathering of 88 sayings by Jesus and 25 pre-Constantinian Christian paintings and other works of art of Him, Dom Crossan once again focuses on the Galilean "in his actual life" rather than on the canonical Jesus of the New Testament's four gospels. Jesus, Crossan believes, was a plainspoken sage; and "communal empowerment" together with healing comprised the core of his message about the "program and presence" of the kingdom he pointed to. Appropriately, the 25 early depictions, juxtaposed here with the sayings, emphasize how Jesus was understood before his revolutionary humanity was transfigured by the later creeds and theology of Christian orthodoxy. Crossan's eloquent pairing of the teachings and the imagery amplifies his The Historical Jesus and Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography, as well as The Five Gospels from the Jesus Seminar of which Crossan is a prominent member. 080035 Price:

CUSHMAN, KAREN LE LIVRE DE CATHERINE ECOLE DES LOISIRS 1998 2211036538 Soft cover Very Good Book 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall Couverture souple . Texte francais, french edition."Les filles, c'est comme le poisson. Ça se gâche vite et ça ne se garde pas." Ainsi parle Messire Rollo, chevalier du village de Stonebridge, dans l'Angleterre de la fin du xiiie siècle. Sa fille Catherine a treize ans, et Rollo trouve qu'il est grand temps de la marier. Les soupirants défilent au manoir. Aucun ne trouve grâce aux yeux de Catherine. L'un est moche, l'autre est bête, un troisième est trop vieux, un autre encore sale comme un cochon. Il y a bien le doux oncle Georges, mais son coeur est pris par une autre. En réalité, Catherine ne veut pas se marier du tout. Elle ruse, elle jette des sorts, elle tente des fugues pour échapper au funeste destin qui la guette. Et en attendant d'être vraiment libre, elle consigne ses faits et gestes, ses pensées et les événements du village dans son beau livre de vélin. C'est son frère Edward, futur moine, qui lui a conseillé d'écrire tous les jours "pour devenir moins puérile et plus instruite". Alors, pleine de rage parce que son père ivre l'a battue, ou débordante d'espoir à la perspective d'une évasion, Catherine écrit, chaque jour que Dieu fait, et raconte tout en détails, d'autant plus volontiers que, quand elle écrit, sa mère la dispense d'accomplir toutes les corvées ménagères qu'elle déteste : filer la laine, faire bouillir le linge, broder, coudre et ourler. La vie au manoir est rythmée par les travaux, les récoltes, les fausses couches de la Dame, mais aussi les fêtes religieuses et les banquets où défilent les invités de passage qui apportent les nouvelles du monde, et où circulent des plats étranges : anguilles à la gelée de coing, hérissons à la crème, serpents de mer aux pommes. Et le jour où un abbé confie à Catherine un petit livre des saints, elle décide de faire de son journal un livre, aussi héroïque et étonnant qu'une vie de martyre. 082884 Price:

Custer, General George A. (Milo Quaife, editior) My Life on the Plains A Bison Book by General George A. Custer; Milo Milton Lincoln University of Nebraska Press 1972 Soft cover Very Good Book 8vo - over 7¾ in. - 9¾ in.Tall Previous owners' name on front free endpaper. 626 pages. Illustrated. Unmarked. George Armstrong Custer (1839-1876) was an American army officer and cavalry commander in the American Civil War and the Indian Wars. He established a reputation as an aggressive cavalry brigade commander willing to take personal risks by leading his Michigan Brigade into battle. At the end of the Civil War (1865), Custer was promoted to Major General of United States Volunteers. His distinguished war record, which started with riding dispatches for General Scott, has been overshadowed in history by his role and fate in the Indian Wars. Custer was defeated and killed at the Battle of the Little Bighorn in 1876, against a coalition of Native American tribes. He wrote about the Indian wars in My Life on the Plains (1874). 080591 Price:

Dotés de pouvoirs exceptionnels dans la lutte antidrogue, ils en usaient sans hésiter, non sans arrogance. Et puis on comprit qu'ils en abusaient, et le gouvernement américain ouvrit une enquête sur la corruption dans leurs rangs. Bob Leuci était l'un de ces "princes de New York". Aussi pourri que ses collègues. Il décida cependant d'organiser la purge et de donner le coup de pied dans la fourmilière. Il allait déranger beaucoup de monde, révéler trafics, compromissions et abus de pouvoir. Une "trahison" qu'on ne lui pardonnerait pas... Tout cela se passait au début des années 70. L'auteur de L'Année du Dragon était alors commissaire de la ville de New York. Tout ce qu'il relate est vrai de bout en bout. Un document captivant comme un thriller, qui a inspiré le grand film de Sidney Lumet. 080580 Price:

Ce n'était pas des policiers ordinaires. Ils appartenaient au service spécial de recherche de la brigade des stupéfiants. On les appelait les "Princes de New York" car ils opéraient impunément, avec parfois l'arrogance des princes de la Renaissance. Robert Leuci était l'un deux. Il avait peut-être plus de conscience que les autres, ou alors ce qu'ils faisaient tous le troublait davantage. En tout cas il fit le premier pas et provoqua leur chute. Comme Samson, il fit d'abord pénitence avant de renverser le temple. 083758 Price:

Couverture Broché Grand Format. TEXTE FRANCAIS, FRENCH TEXT. Quand le général Roméo Dallaire a été appelé à assurer le commandement de la Force internationale de maintien de la paix des Nations unies au Rwanda, il croyait être dépêché en Afrique pour aider deux belligérants à trouver un terrain d'entente. Une fois au Rwanda, il découvrit une tout autre réalité. Pris entre une guerre civile sanglante et un génocide impitoyable, le général et ses hommes - une petite troupe - furent bientôt abandonnés, sans aucune ressource, par leurs patries respectives. Pour lutter contre la vague de tueries qui ravageaient ce pays, ils ne purent compter que sur leur propre générosité et sur leur courage personnel. En moins de cent jours, la guerre au Rwanda allait faire plus de 800 000 morts et au-delà de 3 millions de blessés et de réfugiés. C'est avec le poids de cette tragédie que le général Dallaire est rentré chez lui, au Canada, en septembre 1994, brisé et désillusionné. Il lui faudra sept ans avant de pouvoir commencer à écrire sur ce sujet. Dans J'ai serré la main du diable, il raconte l'enfer qu'il a vécu au Rwanda et il n'hésite pas à reconstituer les terribles événements auxquels la communauté internationale a tourné le dos. Son témoignage est un compte rendu sans concession de la faillite de l'humanité à mettre un terme à un génocide pourtant maintes fois dénoncé 080322 Price:

Darwin, Charles On The Origin Of Species By Means Of Natural Selection, Or the Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life Two Volumes Set N,Y. D. Appleton & Company 1915 Hardcover Very Good No Jacket Book 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Sixth edition, Two volumes set. Specialy published by D. Appleton for the Brunswick subscription CO. Olive green color pebbled-cloth boards.Text unmarked. Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species, is a work of scientific literature which is considered to be the foundation of evolutionary biology. Its full title was On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. For the sixth edition of 1872, the short title was changed to The Origin of Species. Darwin's book introduced the scientific theory that populations evolve over the course of generations through a process of natural selection. It presented a body of evidence that the diversity of life arose by common descent through a branching pattern of evolution. Darwin included evidence that he had gathered on the Beagle expedition in the 1830s and his subsequent findings from research, correspondence, and experimentation. 082795 Price:

Das, Surya;Das, Lama Surya;Surya Das Awakening the Buddha Within: Eight Steps to Enlightenment Westminster, Maryland, U.S.A. Bantam Dell Pub Group 1997 0553066951 Hardcover Very Good Good Book 8vo - over 7¾ in. - 9¾ in.Tall Tear on dust jacket.In Awakening the Buddha Within, he borrows a time-tested bestseller format for a 2,500-year-old tradition that comes off as anything but ancient. With the "Five T's of Concentration," the question of "need or greed," and the story of the monk who bears his backside to prove a point, Surya Das invokes a path of wisdom that is as accessible and down-to-earth as a worn pair of loafers. It's not an easy path--it demands thought, effort, and discipline. But Surya Das is there for you, lighting the way to wisdom training, coaxing you into ethics training, and laying out step by step the path of meditation training. And if that's not enough to get you to live in the now, consider these words of the enlightened lama: "You must be present to win." 080795 Price:

Davidson, Basil Africa in History: Themes and Outlines Old Tappan, New Jersey, U.S.A. Touchstone Books 1995 0684826674 Soft cover Very Good Book 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Soft cover, 425 pages. Prior to the original publication of Africa in History, the history and development of Africa had been measured by the European concept of "civilization," applying a Eurocentric approach to African art and literature. Basil Davidson's landmark work presents the inner growth of Africa and its worldwide significance, the internal dynamic of its old civilizations and their links with Asia, Europe and America, as well as the development of specific areas, tribes and cultures. From accounts of the days of the green Sahara and the great iron age, the earliest Portuguese colonization, the coming of slavery and the subsequent legacy of violence and mistrust, the growth of Islam in the north and the cults of the Congo, the sophistication of art and architecture, and the pattern behind social and tribal mores, the entire picture of the continent emerges. This revised edition reflects the recent astonishing changes in South Africa, including the release of Nelson Mandela. 084235 Price:
