"Confronted with the roiling changes of the post-WWI world--from growing stateless populations to the resurgence of right-wing movements--the League of Nations aimed to counteract dangerous conflicts between national interests and generate instead a transnational, cosmopolitan dialogue on truth and justice. Amid widespread anxiety over truth and falsehood, an army of League personnel produced streams of documents in the pursuit of "shaping global public opinion." Combining the tools of global intellectual history and cultural history, A Violent Peace explores the power and the vulnerability of information systems while laying bare "the anatomy of fascism" in the interwar period. Carolyn Biltoft reopens the archives of the League to show how its attempt to operationalize information science in support of the post-WWI order proved ultimately pyrrhic as informational power struggles devolved into violence. A meditation on instability in information systems, the allure of fascism, and the contradictions at the heart of a global and violent modernity, A Violent Peace paints a rich portrait of the emergence of the age of information--and all its attendant problems"--

This book is about learning everything we can from our lives. Every moment, waking or sleeping, has a message for us about who we are and what we are on the earth to do.

We can be quiet in meditation and receive this great energy and knowledge. Forgiveness can bring our purpose in life closer to being fulfilled. We are blessed with something to do in this life that will help others. This is like throwing a pebble into a still pond. The ripples of our actions in life can bring about wonderful growth and change in the entire world. Look at the influence parents have on children and multiply that by thousands.

Tell the Truth, Let the Peace Fall Where it May is about coming clean down to the roots of your being. It's about walking through the world, through your entire life, in the fullness of who you really are. You were born for greatness. But you can't build greatness on a foundation of bullshit. This book is about three essential things: (1) how and why most people live disconnected from their authentic truth everyday. (2) what that chronic disconnection costs in joy, intimacy, fulfillment, vitality and more. (3) what it could look like to live every moment in our authentic truth. Ultimately, this book outlines what it can look like to live confidently in your full, authentic truth, throughout your life, everyday, trusting that the inevitable consequence of living in truth is that "peace" will effortlessly wrap itself all over you and wherever else it may ... without you having to do anything else to make that happen.

Can I trust you, God? and more. In this warm, personal account, Dr. Sproul communicates deep truths in a fresh and easy-to-understand style as he shares his passion to know God and urges the reader to dig deep and seek the God who is alive, who is real, and who loves each one of us.
