Betrayal goes to the heart of US officials’ (and their partners’) self-serving injury to the health and welfare of the United States and the world. US public officials’ abandonment of public health for private wealth leaves the world and nation reeling from one USA-made (deliberate) crisis—of violence and disease, hunger and homelessness, deterioration and diminishment of quality conditions in workplaces and public education—to another. Their all-round acts of “legalized” corruption, their international crimes with impunity, and their deregulation-driven denial of essential needs such as clean water and air, food and work safety, shelter, and life itself constitute ultimate and everlasting betrayal. The nonfiction account in the areas of US politics, domestic affairs and foreign relations, leadership, law and democracy, and war and peace cites examples of callous, crisis-driven betrayal.

The Wireless Elephant in the Room concisely conveys the well-established risks from cell phones and wireless technologies, the tremendous biological stress that acute and chronic exposures create, especially to children, and the big plans wireless companies have to blanket us even further in this inescapable, harmful radiation throughout our homes and neighborhoods, and even from space, all the while deliberately addicting us to electronic technologies and driving up health costs. The author, one of America's leading health advocates, expert in the biological and health effects of electromagnetic fields, asks, "Why should we, in essence, be agreeing to be the collateral damage of the wireless industry's misguided values that are damaging humans, animals and nature, and especially children, on an unprecedented scale, for their commercial gain?" The Wireless Elephant in the Room is a highly informed synopsis of society's new public health predicament and a powerful contribution to public education on this topic. It is chock full with research citations and quotes from leading scientific experts, including from Harvard, Columbia, Yale and other universities. The Wireless Elephant in the Room is a 'must have' for couples hoping to conceive, expectant mothers, parents, teachers, school administrators, employers, health insurers, social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists, and everyone with a chronic illness, including cancer patients, and their doctors. No one taught doctors about the biological and health effects of electromagnetic fields in medical school. It is a new public health issue. Best to give them all copies. Sometimes the solution to a mysterious or never-resolving health problem (including learning problems) can be as simple as using technology in a safer way. Learn what conditions have been linked to wireless radiation, where you can go for help to measure and minimize exposures, and how to quickly get further up to speed on the basics of safer living in a wireless world. Start with The Wireless Elephant in the Room and begin the process of empowering yourself to proactively protect health. Big Brother is not looking out for our best interests, as it also did not with tobacco, asbestos, glyphosate, lead paint, DDT and more. We need to learn and spread the truth about this subject at the grassroots among health conscious Americans. The Wireless Elephant in the Room is a quick read and riveting.

Developing learners' competence is an important part of the mission of higher education. The kind of competences that higher education should develop depend on what we see as the purposes of higher education. The term "converging competences" points to the need not only to train individuals for specific tasks, but to educate the whole person. Education is about acquiring skills, but also about acquiring values and attitudes. As education policies move from an emphasis on process to a stronger emphasis on the results of the education processes, learning outcomes have come to be seen as an essential feature of policies both in Europe and North America. This book explores the roles and purposes of higher education in modern, complex societies and the importance of competences in this respect. Although public debate in Europe could give the impression that the sole purpose of higher education is to prepare for the labour market, this important role is complemented by at least three others: preparation for democratic citizenship, personal development and the development of a broad and advanced knowledge base. This work draws on the experiences in both Europe and North America to underline that the discussion is not in fact about which of these different purposes is the "real" one; they are all important, and they coexist.

'A compelling memoir. Absorbing and graced with a deceptive lightness of touch, [Hanging with the Elephant] is clever and brilliantly pieced together. Harding writes like an angel' Sunday Times From the No.1 bestselling author of Staring at Lakes, Talking to Strangers and On Tuesdays I'm A Buddhist 'In public or on stage, it's different. I'm fine. I have no bother talking to three hundred people, and sharing my feelings. But when I'm in a room on a one-to-one basis, I get lost. I can never find the right word. Except for that phrase - hold me.' Michael Harding's wife has departed for a six-week trip, and he has been left alone in their home in Leitrim. Faced with the realities of caring for himself for the first time since his illness two years before, Harding endeavours to tame the 'elephant' - an Asian metaphor for the unruly mind. As he does, he finds himself finally coming to terms with the death of his mother - a loss that has changed him more than he knows. Funny, searingly honest and profound, Hanging with the Elephant pulls back the curtain and reveals what it is really like to be alive.
