Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. New condition color illustrated boards contained in a new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes The Invitation to Joy; Introduction by Douglas Abrams; Acknowledgments; Author Bios; and Reader's Guide. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs and… a black-and-white photographic frontispiece. "Two Spiritual Giants. Five Days. One Timeless Question. Nobel Peace Prize Laureates His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Archbishop Desmond Tutu have survived more than fifty years of exile and the soul-crushing violence of oppression. Despite their hardships - or, as they would say, because of them - they are two of the most joyful people on the planet. In April 2015, Archbishop Tutu traveled to the Dalai Lama's home in Dharamsala, India, to celebrate His Holiness's eightieth birthday and to create what they hoped would be a gift for others. They looked back on their long lives to answer a single burning question: How do we find joy in the face of life's inevitable suffering? They traded intimate stories, teased each other continually, and shared their spiritual practices. By the end of a week filled with laughter and punctuated with tears, these two global heroes had stared into the abyss and despair of our times and revealed how to live a life brimming with joy. This book offers us a rare opportunity to experience their astonishing and unprecedented week together, from the first embrace to the final good-bye. We get to listen in as they explore the Nature of True Joy and confront each of the Obstacles to Joy - from fear, stress, and anger to grief, illness, and death. They then offer us the Eight Pillars of Joy, which provide the foundation for lasting happiness. Throughout, they include stories, wisdom, and science. Finally they share the daily Joy Practices that anchor their own emotional and spiritual lives. The Archbishop has never claimed sainthood, and the Dalai Lama considers himself a simple monk. In this unique collaboration, they offer us the reflection of real lives filled with pain and turmoil in the midst of which they have been able to discover a level of peace, of courage, and of joy to which we can all aspire in our own lives." - from the inner front jacket flap. Dewey, Amanda (book design); Misani, Nick (jacket and case design); Turin, Miranda Penn (front cover, spine and author photographs); Choejor, Tenzin (back cover photograph) (illustrateur).

Soft cover. Etat : Fine. **The Effects of the Arctic Heating Up** J. Overpeck, K. Hughen, D. Hardy, R. Bradley, R. Case, M. Douglas, B. Finney, K. Gajewski, G. Jacoby, and G. Zielinsk, and others. "Arctic Environmental Change of the Last Four Centuries" in Science, published by the AAAS, 14 Nov 1997, Vol 278, Issue 5341, pp. 125…1-1256 in the issue of 1198-1366. Original wrappers. FINE copy. Abstract: "A compilation of paleoclimate records from lake sediments, trees, glaciers, and marine sediments provides a view of circum-Arctic environmental variability over the last 400 years. From 1840 to the mid-20th century, the Arctic warmed to the highest temperatures in four centuries. This warming ended the Little Ice Age in the Arctic and has caused retreats of glaciers, melting of permafrost and sea ice, and alteration of terrestrial and lake ecosystems. Although warming, particularly after 1920, was likely caused by increases in atmospheric trace gases, the initiation of the warming in the mid-19th century suggests that increased solar irradiance, decreased volcanic activity, and feedbacks internal to the climate system played roles." Cited by 1466.

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Two related documents offered together. (1) In Defence of the Public Servant: original printed wraps 15x22cm, printed by P.J. Milner, Kensington Gore, with Committee Chair's address (3 Gloucester Walk, Kensington W8), 24pp. Undated, c1925 with the timeline on the final page going up to 1924. Wraps v…ery good. Interiors near fine with redaction of "Miss" to p3, lightly tanned, staples rusting. (2) Air Ministry Correspondence presented to Parliament by Command of His Majesty May 1919: original self wraps, 20pp foolscap. Near fine, lightly tanned, with neat institutional ink stamps to the front, staples rusted. Violet Douglas-Pennant (1869-1945) spent 14 troubled weeks as Commandant of the short-lived WRAF until her dismissal in August 1918. Uncertain about whether to accept the role to begin with, her tenure had included unsuccessful attempts to resign. The Air Ministry document included here lays out 39 pieces of correspondence dating from 1.7.18 to 24.5.19 leading up to and around the dismissal, involving Douglas-Pennant herself, her Assistant Commandant, the Secretary of State for the RAF, the Air Council, the Prime Minister, among others. Douglas-Pennant claimed that she had been forced out by senior officers in an attempt to cover up "rife immorality" within the WRAF. The House of Lords formed a Select Committee in October 1918 to look into these claims, and in Dec 1919 reported that no evidence could be found to support them. The controversy continued to roll with Douglas-Pennant attempting to clear her name through her book "Under the Search Light, a Record of a Great Scandal" (c1922). Campaigning on her behalf was the Publication Committee of the Douglas-Pennant Case, chaired by singer, suffragist, and co-founder of the Society of Women Musicians, Gertrude Eaton (1861-1939). Some of the other Committee members listed here are authors Flora Annie Steel (Complete Indian House Keeper and Cook, etc) and Euphemia Margaret Tait (pen name John Ironside), mezzo soprano Dr Mary Davies, journalist and suffragist Nina Boyle, University College of North Wales Principal Sir Harry Reichel, and Secretary of the North Wales Quarreymen's Union RT Jones. This publication was presented to Douglas-Pennant at "a crowded and enthusiastic meeting at Lord Askwith's house as a proof of the unabated confidence felt in her by members of all classes who had worked with her, and as a mark of appreciation of the public services she had so unobtrusively rendered before and during the war" (p3). It challenges the findings of the Select Committee with counter-evidence, and records Douglas-Pennant's public work (1899-1918) and war work (1914 -18). Extremely rare, with Library Hub locating only 1 (LSE), and Worldcat locating 2 of later editions (University of Waterloo, 9th ed, 1926?; Utrecht University c1929).

Four leaves, each 31 x 20cm, folded into four sections to make 8 'pages' per leaf, handwritten with case notes regarding "The Douglas Cause", including notes regarding case law: "Cases of this Sort in other countries - ? Bopius p.259 de part ? where the birth of a child produced by Elintherius Rusea? and his wife was tried and d…ecided - in this case it appeared that there could be no direct proof", discussing possible proofs of pregnancy and witness statements relating to morning sickness etc., discussing evidence and proof: "As to the Enlevmet. of Ma. Mignon, for ye. is proof of her selling her child. - ? obliged to prove the Defce. Mignon's Son ? but from ohr. circumst. strong presumptions.", and other notes Footnote "The Douglas Cause" was a 1760s cause célèbre and legal battle between Archibald Douglas and James Douglas-Hamilton. Archibald Douglas, the first Duke of Douglas, was quiet, reclusive and, it is theorised, experienced severe struggles with mental health. He was not expected to marry and produce an heir, and it was assumed his sister, Lady Jane Douglas, would inherit. If both siblings remained childless, the Dukes of Hamilton, Douglas kinsmen, would inherit the Douglas fortune and titles. In 1746, aged 48, Lady Jane Douglas married Colonel John Stewart in secret, assumed the surname Gray and travelled to the Continent. However, aged 50, Lady Jane suddenly admitted to the marriage and announced the birth of twin sons, Archibald and Sholto. The Duke Archibald Douglas - with the unexpected support of the Hamiltons - refused to recognise his new nephews as his heirs. Returning to Britain in 1751 in poverty, Stewart was imprisoned. Lady Jane and Sholto sadly died in 1753, and the young Archibald was left in the care of his kinsman Charles Douglas, 3rd Duke of Queensberry. Archibald Stewart's fortunes improved slightly in 1761 when his uncle finally recognised him as his heir and settled his estates upon the boy, ten days before he died. The Dukedom expired with the Duke, however, the Marquessate of Douglas passed to the child James Douglas-Hamilton. Nonetheless, Archibald Stewart inherited the Duke's properties and inheritance of £12,000 a year, changing his name to Archibald Douglas, after his uncle. The Hamiltons contested the inheritance, claiming that Archibald was the kidnapped or sold child of Jacques Louis Mignon, whilst his brother had been the son of 'Sanry the Rope Dancer'. In 1762, they launched an action in the Court of Session, claiming that Archibald was not Lady Jane's son and had no claim to the inheritance. The legal notes found here date from 1766, nearing the end of the proceedings, and debate the witnesses to the twins' parenthood, Lady Jane's pregnancy and other matters. In 1767, Robert Dundas ruled in favour of the Hamiltons. However, this was appealed and the verdict, in 1769, found in favour of Douglas. Despite what must have been a rather traumatic childhood, Archibald Douglas became one of the richest magnates in Scotland, a notable MP and father to nine children.
