Book excerpt: The world’s wildlife is in crisis, and the next ten years are critical. It is time to shift the focus from shooting these endangered animals for trophies to shooting them with a camera - and raising awareness of their situation. The New Big 5 brings together the world’s greatest wildlife photographers, conservationists, and advocates in a mission to not only celebrate the natural beauty of the animal world, but to raise awareness of the crucial issues facing these magnificent creatures. Until recently, the Big Five referred to the five big-game animals that were most difficult for colonial hunters to shoot and kill. Wildlife photographer Graeme Green’s The New Big 5 Project set about to reclaim that gruesome, antiquated term by asking people around the world to vote on the five endangered animals they would most want to shoot—with a camera. More than fifty thousand people voted, and the New Big 5 list of Wildlife Photography was born. What are the New Big 5? Elephants Gorillas Tigers Lions Polar Bears Featuring beautiful photography of majestic creatures of in their natural habitats, and informative essays from the world’s greatest wildlife advocates, this one-of-a-kind book inspires and raises awareness about the New Big 5, and our wildlife world.

Then, perhaps, other people will become involved in helping to create a world where wildlife can flourish for future generations to enjoy. I believe we have a window of time during which we can start to heal some of the harm we have inflicted on the natural world and slow down the heating of the planet. But only if we get together and take action now.” - Dr. Jane Goodall

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book also focuses on analyzing each trait from the point of view of its higher and lower order structure, as well as from the affective, cognitive, behavioral, social and academic perspectives, apart from outlining the field of personality psychology. Personality traits are important in daily interaction, and are a significant factor in achieving educational goals also for second and foreign language (L2) learners. Consequently, studying the role of personality in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) appears to be of primary importance, especially because there has been little research on this subject. Moreover, general results pertaining to the role of personality in L2 are inconclusive. This book’s primary objective is to present a concise and updated picture of personality on the basis of the Big Five model, which is accessible for non-psychologists. The middle part of the book focuses on discussing potential merits and drawbacks of each trait for the purpose of the process of SLA, both from the formal and informal, theoretical and empirical points of view. The next part includes a description of an empirical study, whose main aim is to sensitize the reader to direct and indirect influences that personality may exert on L2 learning. The book closes with a concluding chapter aiming at clarifying directions for further empirical study of personality as well as issues in research methodology.

Book excerpt: Imagine being part of a wholly transformed body of Christ that truly reflects the character of God to the world! What if God's people weren't tossed to and fro with every wind of the devil's deceit and every wave of secular culture, but instead stood firm on the foundation of sound, biblical doctrine? This can only happen if Christians understand and construct their spiritual lives on The Big 5 foundational doctrines of the faith. Dr. Daniel Gilbert is an international speaker, theologian, ministry consultant, and writer. Passionate about the transforming power of God to help people enter into a deeper relationship with their Creator, Dr. Gilbert wrote The Big 5 so that every Christian can discover-or re-discover-the enduring biblical doctrines and foundational principles on which believers of all backgrounds can base their lives. In this book, you'll learn about five core beliefs: -Sola scriptura: how Scripture is the entirely trustworthy Word of God, which provides us with essential knowledge of God's character and how He designed us to live -Solus Christus: how Jesus Christ is our Lord, not a liar or a lunatic, and the only real path to life -Sola gratia: how grace, the single escape route from spiritual death, is God's gift to all -Sola fide: how committing our lives to Christ through faith leads us to do good works, but it's faith not works that leads to salvation -Soli deo gloria: how bringing glory to God in all things is our ultimate purpose and gives meaning to our daily lives -PLUS bonus workbook sections are included to help you reflect on each of these Big 5 of our faith! Free yourself from human-inspired ideas and habits that sound or feel good, and instead let the foundational truths of Christ's teaching transform you. Pick up your copy of The Big 5 today and become part of the new reformation the church needs now more than ever!

Book excerpt: “A prescient and important book. . . . Fascinating.”—The New York Review of Books No single invention of the last half century has changed the way we live now as much as the Internet. Alexander Klimburg was a member of the generation for whom it was a utopian ideal turned reality: a place where ideas, information, and knowledge could be shared and new freedoms found and enjoyed. Two decades later, the future isn’t so bright any more: increasingly, the Internet is used as a weapon and a means of domination by states eager to exploit or curtail global connectivity in order to further their national interests. Klimburg is a leading voice in the conversation on the implications of this dangerous shift, and in The Darkening Web, he explains why we underestimate the consequences of states’ ambitions to project power in cyberspace at our peril: Not only have hacking and cyber operations fundamentally changed the nature of political conflict—ensnaring states in a struggle to maintain a precarious peace that could rapidly collapse into all-out war—but the rise of covert influencing and information warfare has enabled these same global powers to create and disseminate their own distorted versions of reality in which anything is possible. At stake are not only our personal data or the electrical grid, but the Internet as we know it today—and with it the very existence of open and democratic societies. Blending anecdote with argument, Klimburg brings us face-to-face with the range of threats the struggle for cyberspace presents, from an apocalyptic scenario of debilitated civilian infrastructure to a 1984-like erosion of privacy and freedom of expression. Focusing on different approaches to cyber-conflict in the US, Russia and China, he reveals the extent to which the battle for control of the Internet is as complex and perilous as the one surrounding nuclear weapons during the Cold War—and quite possibly as dangerous for humanity as a whole. Authoritative, thought-provoking, and compellingly argued, The Darkening Web makes clear that the debate about the different aspirations for cyberspace is nothing short of a war over our global values.
