E LT2 : The Theory Of Human Proclivity
$26.99
Proclivity is the propensity for action. Human proclivity defines the natural tendency or inclination that drives the human creature to act. Understanding why we do what we do is critical to understanding the world around us and changing it or changing ourselves. To take the position that all human actions are simple behavioral responses to the environment or are innate biological responses is not completely accurate. Proceeding from the premise that relationships are contractual is also fallacious. So is the erroneous assumption that changing our lives or ourselves is best accomplished by mimicking or imitating certain behaviors or habits, yet legions of people are encouraged to do so on a daily basis. Bearing in mind that every behavior has reason and a purpose, or a desired intent, such disingenuous behavior could be considered deceitful by nature. So why is this premise advocated as the cornerstone of popular leadership, management, motivational, and success literature, models, and schools? As it relates to human interactions or relationships, intentions are not always easily discerned as our perceptions are subject to control. There is something terribly wrong here. Not everything is as it seems.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
