Further Travels of an Everyday Man takes readers along with David Ferguson Elliott as he visits Europe, as well as exotic countries that most will never see, such as Tanzania, Kenya, Egypt, Morocco, Thailand and Borneo. The book features David's travels throughout the world, and like his first book, Travels of an Everyday Man, includes his meetings with a variety of people from different cultures. Further Travels also contains accounts of numerous wildlife sightings and more than 50 photos to whet the interest of armchair travellers. In his first book, he describes his chance sighting of a snow leopard in the Annapurna Sanctuary, and in this book writes about seeing orangutans in Borneo. Yet to be seen are tigers in the wild and a komodo dragon. Other experiences include the sighting of the Northern lights, or Aurora Borealis, and an active volcano. The wish list continues to grow, despite visiting various countries and achieving some interesting and anticipated experiences. About the Author: David Ferguson Elliott was raised in Derbyshire, England, and now lives in Murcia, Spain.He is retired and sites his inspiration as many of the historic explorers and mountaineers, but in particular a guy named Norman Croucher, who after a serious accident and the amputation of both legs below the knee, went on to climb mountains around the world.

The incredible bestselling book from the author of No Barriers and The Adversity Advantage Erik Weihenmayer was born with retinoscheses, a degenerative eye disorder that would leave him blind by the age of thirteen. But Erik was determined to rise above this devastating disability and lead a fulfilling and exciting life. In this poignant and inspiring memoir, he shares his struggle to push past the limits imposed on him by his visual impairment-and by a seeing world. He speaks movingly of the role his family played in his battle to break through the barriers of blindness: the mother who prayed for the miracle that would restore her son's sight and the father who encouraged him to strive for that distant mountaintop. And he tells the story of his dream to climb the world's Seven Summits, and how he is turning that dream into astonishing reality (something fewer than a hundred mountaineers have done). From the snow-capped summit of McKinley to the towering peaks of Aconcagua and Kilimanjaro to the ultimate challenge, Mount Everest, this is a story about daring to dream in the face of impossible odds. It is about finding the courage to reach for that ultimate summit, and transforming your life into something truly miraculous. "An inspiration to other blind people and plenty of us folks who can see just fine."—Jon Krakauer, New York Times bestselling author of Into Thin Air

Many researchers have studied people's everyday use of time. National and international agencies increasingly collect and analyze time-use data. Yet this perspective and its techniques remain a black box to most social science researchers and applied practitioners, and the potential of time-use data to expand explanation in the social sciences is not fully recognized by even most time-use researchers. Sociologist William Michelson's unique book places the study of time-use data in perspective, demystifies its collection and analytic options, and carefully examines the potential of time-use analysis for a wide range of benefits to the social sciences. These include the sampling of otherwise socially "hidden" groups, bridging the gap between qualitative and quantitative phenomena, gender studies, family dynamics, multitasking, social networks, built environments, and risk exposure.

Travels of a Renaissance Man is one man's experience discovering what lies beyond the cities and borders of America. Ezekiel Phillips' travel journey began in 2007 when popular television personality and philanthropist, Tavis Smiley along with his Pastor, Bishop Noel Jones showed love by sponsoring Phillips on a mission trip to the African city of Accra in the nation of Ghana. From that experience, the California native spring boarded into more than 16 different international excursions. Combine these life changing experiences with Phillips' dynamic film-making ability, and you get a rare behind the scenes glimpse into life on the ground in less developed nations like the Philippines and Haiti. The experiences captured during his travels enable him to add value to people's lives that have yet to embrace globalization and travel. As a result of exposing himself to new cultures, communities, and people, Phillips collaborates with like-minded young adults. Furthermore, Travels of a Renaissance Man is more than a book about how to obtain your passport, turn-up in Egypt, and post pictures on Instagram. It is an in-depth look into the life lessons of one man who is daring to live without limits and speak revolutionary truth. Travels of a Renaissance Man is a 21st century success story about faith, family, self-reflection, and hope.When used properly the life lessons of this book can be your guide to unlocking all that lives in you. So many times young adults are influenced by the negative factors around them. Often these factors prohibit them from looking in that one place where true inspiration can be found. Phillips has realized that this place is not found in the arms of a woman, the satisfaction of a purchase, nor the thrill of accomplishments. True inspiration comes from relentlessly pursuing the path that allows you to find your passion to live from within. Travels of a Renaissance Man challenges you to live life from the inside out and find what will make you want to live everyday like it is your last day on earth! See you at Departures.

When you think of God, what images come to mind? Do you see God in others? Do you acknowledge God's presence in each circumstance and situation of your everyday life, no matter how trivial? How you conceive God determines how you experience God. As contemporary author Frederick Buechner advises, "Listen to your life. Listen to what happens to you, because it is through what happens to you that God speaks." While spiritual life of some kind is necessary for psychological health, psychotherapist Thomas Moore indicates in Care of the Soul that excessive or ungrounded spirituality can be dangerous, leading to compulsive and even violent behavior. It is better for religious seekers to embrace a religious practice that has been tested and refined over time than to experiment solo or by joining some exotic new sect. In this book, Dr. Vande Kappelle explores the richness of Catholic and Protestant spiritual traditions and the power of intuition and imagination to chart an approach to the sacred that is simple, practical, and effective. Holistic religion requires three elements in creative tension: a historical or institutional element, a mystical or emotional element, and an intellectual or scientific element. If you want to know what this means and how it is accomplished, read this book. Designed as a study guide for group or individual use, In the Potter's Workshop will challenge and inspire you to experience God in ways that are sustainable and transformative.
