Azcona, Maria Cristina

About Peace and Peacemaking, by Maria Cristina Azcona (ed.)

Print: $24.95

MARIA CRISTINA AZCONA - SECOND EDITION - This is a compilation of peace articles by famous writers and philosophers specialized in peace building matters and a summary of their respective point of view. Twelve writers, twelve minds, twelve styles but only one obsession: To resolve the dilemma of war, social violence and the preservation of human life. Love, life, humanity, serenity of thought, familiar peace and other meanings around the need of a change in this crazy, violent and self destructive civilization, are some of the topics in these essays. Peace is possible especially through literature as we explain in the book but also through the education of respect to human dignity… Take a tour on our proposal of solutions to this severe illness that is causing the decadence and perhaps death of our blue planet Earth. Read and think on your own point of view and rethink this book upon your vision. That is our dream. We cannot wait, we want to read your own creative opinion.

It's our hope that this volume will encourage students, professors, and peacemakers to consider this comprehensive look at ten strategy perspectives which, if taken seriously in private and public life, might lead to our shared objective - worldwide peace in our time. * Leadership * Language and Leadership * Interspiritual * World Citizenship * Family Relations * Role of Women * Education * Medical Actions * The Arts * Conflict Resolution

Print: $24.95

MARIA CRISTINA AZCONA - Este proyecto nació de la admiración y el respeto que este gran hombre ha generado en mí y en todos los que hemos llegado a tener la suerte de conocerlo. Ernesto Kahan es alguien crucial para la salud de este universo humano del siglo XXI, en gran parte porque es capaz de comunicar en forma lúcida la necesidad de un cambio racional y profundo en todas las esferas de la civilización. Comprende como nadie lo que significa la paz mundial y sabe cómo lograrla. Se trata de una mente llena de luz. Ernesto es un hombre que dedica su vida desde hace muchísimos años al prójimo. Nos induce a entender que no hay tiempo que perder, siquiera un segundo, y urge que eduquemos a la comunidad en forma inmediata, que los hagamos reaccionar. Que usemos cada medio a nuestro alcance, la radio, la tevé, el recital poético, la muestra de cuadros, etc. Me considero su alumna en estos temas filosóficos de actualidad. He aprendido a servir a los demás con una sonrisa y a transmitir paz con el ejemplo y no solo con la palabra

Perceptions and Practices of Instructors’ Training: A Case Study, by Shiba Bagale (Nepal)

Print: $19.95

SHIBA BAGALE - This research book is about the transfer of training. The main theme of this research is how the training participants perceived training and how they are practicing in their real workplace. The qualitative method was implied where class observations and in-depth interviews were conducted to explore the perceptions and practices of the training participants along with the coping strategies on the challenges they have faced. The findings were that adequate time was not provided for the preparation, though some planning was done. The practice of the training in both the skills and knowledge was seen, where practice of skill is more applied. Some of the knowledge and skills were not practiced. Assessment was done by using both the formative and summative evaluation tools. Finally, this study concluded that there is the need of supervisors and guidance in practicing the skills and knowledge in their workplace.

UNA HOWELL COOK (1923). Springfield, Missouri, the queen city of the Ozarks, was a thriving town at the end of the civil war when my father hung out a sign on the southwest corner of the public square, notifying the public that he was an attorney-at-law. Fantastic and alluring tales had reached his ears long before the ink on his diploma was dry – tales of a land flowing with milk and honey. So abundant was the honey that it was used to grease wagons, and bee trees dotted the landscape. All one had to do was to step outside his cabin, bore a hole, and scoop up the booty.
