"Experiential education focuses mainly on the idea that there are two components to experience: the action and reflection. The Processing Pinnacle offers a theoretical approach to more effective processing, the reflective component of experience. Offering different points of view from the growing world of experiential education, the authors consider the difficulties of processing and suggest techniques to remove these “roadblocks". Utilizing the metaphor of the mountain, the authors demonstrate how and when certain facilitator methods may elicit immediate response and make a lasting impression on the individual, encouraging reflection as a personal response to life experience. Easy to implement and conversational in tone, The Processing Pinnacle contains valuable guidance for anyone who teaches experientially."--pub. desc.

The reasons for me writing this book are many. One of the main reasons is that too many of my friends have died due to people not paying attention to what they were doing. In the process, my friends died young and never had a chance to live their lives fully. Life isn’t something you should put on the back burner, for life is too precious to miss anything. The hope for my first short story is to stop most, if not all of these accidents from happening so people never have to die out of their on foolishness. The other reason is about the second short story. A lot of my friends including me wanted to give up when life knocked us down. The thing none of us realized at the time was, if we did give up then the darkness finally consumed us and we lost. We didn’t do anything stupid because we had our families and each other to push us through our hard times. My hope for this short story is for everyone to learn is that you should never give up when life is hard. Don’t let it knock you down into oblivion. Get back up and fight off these blankets of darkness that threaten to engulf us. Thank you for reading. God bless.

Winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize, a breathtaking elegy to the waning days of human spaceflight as we have known it In the 1960s, humans took their first steps away from Earth, and for a time our possibilities in space seemed endless. But in a time of austerity and in the wake of high-profile disasters like Challenger, that dream has ended. In early 2011, Margaret Lazarus Dean traveled to Cape Canaveral for NASA's last three space shuttle launches in order to bear witness to the end of an era. With Dean as our guide to Florida's Space Coast and to the history of NASA, Leaving Orbit takes the measure of what American spaceflight has achieved while reckoning with its earlier witnesses, such as Norman Mailer, Tom Wolfe, and Oriana Fallaci. Along the way, Dean meets NASA workers, astronauts, and space fans, gathering possible answers to the question: What does it mean that a spacefaring nation won't be going to space anymore?
