The Little Book of Chinese Horoscopes

A bold, concise history of Western economic interventions in Africa, by the former director of the Centre of African Studies at the University of Cambridge For centuries, Westerners have tried to "fix" African economies. From the abolition of slavery onward, missionaries, philanthropists, development economists, and NGOs have arrived on the continent, full of good intentions and bad ideas. Their experiments have invariably gone awry, to the great surprise of all involved. Historian Bronwen Everill argues that these interventions fail, and frequently cause harm, because they start from a misguided premise: that African economies just need to be more like the West. Ignoring Africa's own traditions of economic thought, Americans and Europeans assumed a set of universal economic laws that they thought could be applied anywhere. They enforced specifically Western ideas about growth, wealth, debt, unemployment, inflation, women's work and more, and used Western metrics to find African countries wanting. The West does not know better than African nations how an economy should be run. By laying bare the myths and realities of our tangled economic history, Africonomics moves from Western ignorance to African knowledge.

ONE OF THE GUARDIAN'S 'BEST BOOKS TO DIP INTO THIS SUMMER' 'The Bowie you thought you knew is recast completely' The Spectator 'A transfixing look at David Bowie's life through a spiritual lens... fresh and revealing' Publishers Weekly How David Bowie's search for meaning inspired him to write the music that defined a generation. In this wide-ranging biography, Peter Ormerod explores the quest for spirituality that powered David Bowie's creativity from his earliest recordings to his death-defying final album. Bowie's genre-expanding, era-crossing genius had an extraordinary impact on popular culture but his life-long search for spiritual truth and enlightenment has been overlooked. From Bowie's first musical encounters as a choirboy, this book traces his spiritual obsessions over the years. As a young musician at the start of his career, he was enraptured by Tibetan Buddhism. It was the first step in a spiritual journey that would generate his most profound lyrics and music. From the Kabbalah-influenced tracks of Station to Station to Ziggy Stardust's messiah complex and the profound affinity between Heroes and Christian thought, Ormerod sheds new light on the spiritual traditions behind Bowie's genius. Taking Bowie's spiritual explorations and faith seriously, Ormerod shows us how this quest for meaning propelled him through his darkest moments and biggest successes, lending his music a timelessness and depth that has spoken to so many people across the world. Whether experiencing a dark night of the soul in LA during his occult phase or reciting the Lord's prayer in front of thousands of concertgoers, Bowie was always searching for that universal truth that lies beyond everyday reality.

David Bowie and the Search for Life, Death and God

An essential overview of great kingdoms in African history and their legacies, written by world-leading experts. From the ancient Nile Valley to the savannas of medieval West Africa, the highlands of Ethiopia and on to the forests, lakes and grasslands to the south, African civilizations have given rise to some of the world's most impressive kingdoms. Yet Africa's history is often little known beyond the devastation wrought by the slave trade and European colonial rule. In this groundbreaking book, nine leading historians of Africa take a fresh look at these great kingdoms and empires over five thousand years of recorded history. How was kingship forged in Africa and how did it operate? Was dynastic power maintained by consent or by coercion? Did kings - and queens - display and project that power for all to see, or did they hide it away, as beneath the fringed crowns that concealed the faces of sacred Yoruba rulers? In what ways have African peoples themselves recorded, celebrated and critiqued the deeds of their kings? Great Kingdoms of Africa explores some of the most important questions in the continent's deep past.

A monumental cartographic history of the African slave trade, updated and expanded in a new edition &nbsp; In the first edition of Atlas of the Transatlantic Slave Trade, two leading historians explored details of the 350-year history of African slave traffic to the New World. They showed, with nearly 200 original maps, where the captives came from, how long the journeys lasted, how many died on the voyages, and what the ports and destinations were. They also presented details about the trade itself, including the economics. &nbsp; In this groundbreaking revised edition, 25 new maps locate the major language groups involved in the traffic and show the movement of Africans from the interior of the continent to the Americas, as well as from one part of the Americas to another. Accompanying the maps, as in the first edition, are revealing illustrations and contemporary literary selections, including poems, letters, and diary entries. &nbsp; With up-to-date information drawn from the database Slave Voyages (www.slavevoyages.org), with its records of more than 36,000 voyages, the atlas provides the fullest possible picture of the extent and inhumanity of one of the largest forced migrations in history.

25 Summers by Stephan Schäfer is a life-affirming self-help fable — a word-of-mouth sensation in Germany, with over 130,000 copies sold. Blending storytelling with real-world insight, this book invites you to look differently at your time, your choices, and the life you’re building. At its heart is a simple encounter: a high-achieving man meets Karl, a potato farmer, whose quiet way of living begins to challenge everything he thought he knew about success, relationships and what really matters. Through their conversations — warm, direct and often disarmingly simple — a new perspective begins to emerge. Warm, wise and deeply human, 25 Summers offers practical wisdom to help you slow down, reassess your priorities, and make the most of the life you have.

A Handbook of Prophetic Characteristics

Gebet und Kontemplation stehen im Zentrum der karmelitanischen Spiritualität: der stille, liebende Blick auf Gott, aus dem eine persönliche Freundschaft mit Ihm wächst. Diese Tradition will im Menschen die Sehnsucht nach einer Begegnung mit Gott neu entfachen - einer Begegnung, die das ganze Leben prägt und verwandelt.
Maßgeblich geprägt vom heiligen Johannes vom Kreuz sowie der heiligen Teresa von Ávila und später u.a. bereichert von der heiligen Thérèse von Lisieux, führt die karmelitanische Spiritualität in eine Haltung der inneren Stille und Sammlung. Doch dieser Weg ist keineswegs nur Ordensleuten vorbehalten. Er richtet sich an alle, die sich nach einer tragfähigen, vertieften Gottesbeziehung sehnen - auch und gerade im Alltag.
Der schwedische Karmelit Kardinal Anders Arborelius OCD zeigt in diesem Buch, wie der Weg der Karmelheiligen auch inmitten der heutigen Lebenswirklichkeit gegangen werden kann. In leicht verständlicher und gleichzeitig tiefgründiger Sprache verbindet er diese zeitlose Weisheit der geistlichen Tradition mit den konkreten Herausforderungen des modernen Lebens. Schritt für Schritt lädt er dazu ein, die Gegenwart Gottes im eigenen Herzen zu entdecken und das tägliche Leben bewusst auf das Ziel der Ewigkeit auszurichten.

Ein geistlich fundierter und zugleich lebensnaher Wegbegleiter für alle, die ihren Glauben vertiefen möchten und Gott begegnen wollen: im Verborgenen des Herzens und mitten im Leben.
