How is it possible to carry on with life when the world you live in is falling apart? How is it possible that the very thing you prayed for, for so long is suddenly taken away from you and you are left empty? How is it possible that the people you run to for friendship and help now turn away from you leaving you sad and lonely? What does one do when there is nothing to hold on to; when friends and family turn away and there is nowhere to turn to? Where do you turn to when the world gets too cloudy and unreceptive; when the sounds of laughter mimic clanging cymbals and relationships become rocky and disintegrate? How is it possible to hold on when the future is so gloomy? God has made a way for you. He does not delight in your misery. There’s a way he has made for you through the darkest wilderness, where there has never been a way. Don’t give up yet, it’s going to be okay. Keep your hope alive; weeping may endure for the night but joy comes in the morning. There is a morning that is coming for you. Your world will not fall apart; something will work out, beyond your expectation and wildest imagination. New friends will come your way to replace those who left. Your family will come through whatever challenges they have been facing and God will bring a spirit of understanding and forgiveness. You were designed with an endurance capability, and whatever you go through, he tested you for it in advance and you passed. There is nothing that will hold you back unless you give it permission to. Whatever you set your mind to do you will achieve because that is where your heart will be. He knows the potency he put in you, He knows the acumen he put in you, and He knows you will not break under any weight or pressure. God knew you would be tried and tested, like Jesus was, but nothing will break you. God put in you a resilience power, when you are down you will easily rise up and carry on. He put in you a wake up power that puts you back in motion even in your weakest moment. He put in your heart a new song, a song of victory because when he formed you he knew you will be an over comer. That is why you never give up, that is why something inside you tells you to move on, carry on, don’t stop here. That is what this book is about; to provide you with a map quest that will guide you from the undesirable location you are at and provide you with ideas of how you can move on with your life. Regardless of how far you have gone into the rugged interior, you can begin again. You creator designed you with the ability to recharge yourself in times of turmoil, so that in place of giving up you can restart your life and carry on. I pray that this book will lead you to that point where you can ultimately recharge yourself, put your life together and carry on.

The three main perspectives on the topic, Kantian, Humean, and Aristotelian, are all well represented. Issues covered include: the connection between reason and motivation; the source of moral reasons and their relation to reasons of self-interest; the relation of practical reason to value, to freedom, to responsibility, and to feelings.

The Criminalization series arose from an interdisciplinary investigation into criminalization, focussing on the principles that might guide decisions about what kinds of conduct should be criminalized, and the forms that criminalization should take. Developing a normative theory of criminalization, the series tackles the key questions at the heart of the issue: what principles and goals should guide legislators in deciding what to criminalize? How should criminal wrongs be classified and differentiated? How should law enforcement officials apply the law's specifications of offences? The sixth volume in the series offers a philosophical investigation of the relationship between moral wrongdoing and criminalization. Considering they justification of punishment, the nature of harm, the importance of autonomy, inchoate wrongdoing, the role of consent, and the role of the state, the book provides an account of the nature of moral wrong doing, the sources of wrong doing, why wrong doing is the central target of the criminal law, and the ways in which criminalization of non-wrongful conduct might be permissible.

A psychologist with a reputation for penetrating to the heart of complex parenting issues joins forces with a physician and bestselling author to tackle one of the most disturbing and misunderstood trends of our time -- peers replacing parents in the lives of our children. Dr. Neufeld has dubbed this phenomenon peer orientation, which refers to the tendency of children and youth to look to their peers for direction: for a sense of right and wrong, for values, identity and codes of behaviour. But peer orientation undermines family cohesion, poisons the school atmosphere, and fosters an aggressively hostile and sexualized youth culture. It provides a powerful explanation for schoolyard bullying and youth violence; its effects are painfully evident in the context of teenage gangs and criminal activity, in tragedies such as in Littleton, Colorado; Tabor, Alberta and Victoria, B.C. It is an escalating trend that has never been adequately described or contested until Hold On to Your Kids. Once understood, it becomes self-evident -- as do the solutions. Hold On to Your Kids will restore parenting to its natural intuitive basis and the parent-child relationship to its rightful preeminence. The concepts, principles and practical advice contained in Hold On to Your Kids will empower parents to satisfy their children’s inborn need to find direction by turning towards a source of authority, contact and warmth. Something has changed. One can sense it, one can feel it, just not find the words for it. Children are not quite the same as we remember being. They seem less likely to take their cues from adults, less inclined to please those in charge, less afraid of getting into trouble. Parenting, too, seems to have changed. Our parents seemed more confident, more certain of themselves and had more impact on us, for better or for worse. For many, parenting does not feel natural. Adults through the ages have complained about children being less respectful of their elders and more difficult to manage than preceding generations, but could it be that this time it is for real? -- from Hold On to Your Kids

How does perceptual experience make us knowledgeable about the world? In this book Nadja El Kassar argues that an informed answer requires a novel theory of perception: perceptual experience involves conceptual capacities and consists in a relation between a perceiver and the world. Contemporary theories of perception disagree about the role of content and conceptual capacities in perceptual experience. In her analysis El Kassar scrutinizes the arguments of conceptualist and relationist theories, thereby exposing their limitations for explaining the epistemic role of perceptual experience. Against this background she develops her novel theory of epistemically significant perception. Her theory improves on current accounts by encompassing both the epistemic role of perceptual experiences and its perceptual character. Central claims of her theory receive additional support from work in vision science, making this book an original contribution to the philosophy of perception.

What does it mean to have a right? Previous answers to this question fall into two groups: interest/benefit theories of rights and choice/will theories. This book proposes an alternative to these traditional views: the justified-constraint theory of rights, which avoids the pitfalls of earlier theories, and solves the puzzle of the relational nature of rights. The analysis shows that this theory applies without modification to past, present and future beings.
