Joshua W. White is a combat veteran who served during the 2003 invasion of Iraq. His story of what it's like growing up in a fly-over state, riddled with poverty and drugs, and how the Marine Corps calling changed his life forever is one that everyone needs to hear. Among the Greatest is a real life testimonial from the front lines of a major US conflict, and the struggle to readjust back into society as a young man. For any person who is suffering with PTSD, or who lives with daily adversity, this is testament to weathering the toughest storms and putting yourself back to work. The hardest thing anyone could ever do is admit their mistakes, accept something is wrong, or recognize they NEED help. It's important to share that even during the toughest of days, there are lessons to be learned within the chaos. It's those lessons that often lead to some of the greatest outcomes in life. As long as you are breathing, you are still in the fight, and you can make a difference. Joshua is a mentor that encourages readers to put a stake in the ground and make the decision to never give up!
With a level-headed voice, leading policy strategist Clarke Forsythe speaks clearly into the fray of political striving. Here he campaigns for a recovery of a rich understanding of the virtue of prudence, and for its application by policymakers and citizens to contemporary public policy. As Forsythe explains, prudence, in its classical sense, is the ability to apply wisdom to right action. In this book he explores the importance of applying the principles of prudence--taking account of limitations in a world of constraints and striving to achieve the greatest measure of justice under current circumstances--to the realm of politics, especially that of bioethics. In particular, Forsythe applies these concepts to the ongoing debate among pro-life advocates regarding gradual versus radical change as the most effective way to achieve political and legislative goals. Drawing on the Bible, philosophy, and the wisdom of historical figures such as Abraham Lincoln and William Wilberforce, he makes a strong case for a strategy of seeking to achieve the maximal change possible at a given time--or political prudence. As such, it has broad implications for political scientists and strategists both within and beyond the pro-life context.
