Collective wisdom refers to knowledge and insight gained through group and community interaction. At a deeper level, however, it is about our living connection to each other and the interdependence we share in our neighborhoods, organizations, and world community. Based on nine years of research, "The Power of Collective Wisdom" shows how we can reliably tap into the extraordinary cocreative potential that exists whenever human beings gather together. Stories and historical examples illustrate how collective wisdom has emerged in a range of cultures, settings, and traditions, and the authors o

One of the key concerns of naval strategists and planners today is the nature of the Chinese geostrategic challenge. Conceding that no one can know for certain China s intentions in terms of future conflict, the editors of this hot-topic book argue that the trajectory of Chinese nuclear propulsion for submarines may be one of the best single indicators of China s ambitions of global military power. Nuclear submarines, with their unparalleled survivability, remain ideal platforms for persistent operations in far-flung sea areas and offer an efficient means for China to project power. This colle

Have you ever been in a situation in which you were caught off guard, left speechless, or, worse yet, put your foot in your mouth? This easily accessible book focuses on those moments when knowing exactly what to say is both a challenge and important. From the light-hearted how to react when your boyfriend gives you a blender as a gift or what to say when you run into another lady at a party wearing exactly the same dress to the more serious what to say to a friend who has had a miscarriage or to a friend who has suffered the sudden death of a parent.

That visitation opened wide swaths of understanding for author, Sheryl Glick. She ultimately learned we all have the ability to communicate with our guides…spirits of loved ones, guardian angels, saints, or just “coincidences” that show us the way. Life Is No Coincidence relates t
