Why the NBC Today Show, Seattle Times, Denver Post, Boulder Camera, Longmont Times, Time magazine, and many others find this man's story to be astounding. Hossca Harrison in his own words writes, this book is not about phenomena, although phenomena are part of the story. This book tells about an emotional journey between life and death that begins in Central America and ends in England. It encompasses my journey through two near-death experiences over an eleven-year period. This book is not about death, although death is part of the story. Nor is this book about healing, although healing is a part of the story. My life may seem full of pain and suffering. Quite the contrary, it has been filled with experiences beyond the conscious conception of many. I have had the opportunity to experience life beyond the dreams many people hold. My life's story is not for the causal reader. This story is for those who know there is much more to life than meets the eye. My journey involves experiencing life beyond traditional beliefs - beyond traditional ways of thinking, creating, and healing. If someone had come to me in December of 1981 and forewarned me that before December ended, my life would end and begin again, that I would give up everything I thought to be true, including my business, my home, and my way of life, I would not have believed it possible. I could not believe it. My mind was very much entrenched in the illusions we make for ourselves in this reality. My mind could not have dealt with the future I was about to embark upon. Thankfully, no one told me what my future held. If someone had and I had believed it, I would have hidden under the biggest rock I could find.

Even as seas rise against the shores, another great tide is beginning to rise—a tide of outrage against the pillage of the planet, a tide of commitment to justice and human rights, a swelling affirmation of moral responsibility to the future and to Earth's fullness of life. Philosopher and nature essayist Kathleen Dean Moore takes on the essential questions: Why is it wrong to wreck the world? What is our obligation to the future? What is the transformative power of moral resolve? How can clear thinking stand against the lies and illogic that batter the chances for positive change? What are useful answers to the recurring questions of a storm–threatened time – What can anyone do? Is there any hope? And always this: What stories and ideas will lift people who deeply care, inspiring them to move forward with clarity and moral courage?

The twentieth century gave rise to profound changes in traditional sex roles. However, the force of this 'rising tide' has varied among rich and poor societies around the globe, as well as among younger and older generations. Rising Tide sets out to understand how modernization has changed cultural attitudes towards gender equality and to analyze the political consequences of this process. The core argument suggests that women and men's lives have been altered in a two-stage modernization process consisting of (i) the shift from agrarian to industrialized societies and (ii) the move from industrial towards post industrial societies. This book is the first to systematically compare attitudes towards gender equality worldwide, comparing almost 70 nations that run the gamut from rich to poor, agrarian to postindustrial. Rising Tide is essential reading for those interested in understanding issues of comparative politics, public opinion, political behavior, political development, and political sociology.

A dazzling new history of the irrepressible demographic changes and mass migrations that have made and unmade nations, continents, and empires The rise and fall of the British Empire; the emergence of America as a superpower; the ebb and flow of global challenges from Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, and Soviet Russia. These are the headlines of history, but they cannot be properly grasped without understanding the role that population has played. The Human Tide shows how periods of rapid population transition--a phenomenon that first emerged in the British Isles but gradually spread across the globe--shaped the course of world history. Demography--the study of population--is the key to unlocking an understanding of the world we live in and how we got here. Demographic changes explain why the Arab Spring came and went, how China rose so meteorically, and why Britain voted for Brexit and America for Donald Trump. Sweeping from Europe to the Americas, China, East Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa, The Human Tide is a panoramic view of the sheer power of numbers.
