Author: Jacky Fischer
Narrator: Marguerite Gavin
Award-winning CEO Jacky Fischer presents her signature management method to help small businesses scale by avoiding the most common and destructive pitfalls. Letting go to help your business grow is the apparent contradiction central to The Growth Paradox-and embracing it will lead to more profits, less stress, and happier employees. If you as a leader hold on too tightly-to your people, to everyday decision-making, to the past, and more-you will cut off vital oxygen necessary for growth. The solution: stop being a control freak and instead empower your employees, get out of your own way, and establish a clear vision for the future. Embrace the growth paradox to get unstuck and grow your company to the next level. By leaning into some key, counterintuitive business ideas, you’ll make space for changes that will lead to nonlinear growth.

Free Download Steven Dunn, "The Sanctuary in the Psalms: Exploring the Paradox of God’s Transcendence and Immanence"
English | ISBN: 1498507999 | 2016 | 130 pages | EPUB | 1018 KB
This book is an exploration and interpretation of the diverse symbols and images that represent the sacred presence of God in the Book of Psalms. These images of sacred spaces and objects represent diverse conceptions of "the sanctuary" or sacred spaces, objects and texts that mediate God’s presence and bridge the gap between the ineffable nature of God as transcendent and beyond human comprehension and as immanently and intimately present in human experience. I explore the multivalent ways in which images of sacred spaces and objects facilitate prayer and contemplation. This book represents a valuable contribution to the study of Psalms and biblical theology, spirituality and prayer.

Free Download Julie Guthman, "Agrarian Dreams: The Paradox of Organic Farming in California"
English | 2004 | pages: 264 | ISBN: 0520240952 | EPUB | 1,9 mb
In an era of escalating food politics, many believe organic farming to be the agrarian answer. In this first comprehensive study of organic farming in California, Julie Guthman casts doubt on the current wisdom about organic food and agriculture, at least as it has evolved in the Golden State. Refuting popular portrayals of organic agriculture as a small-scale family farm endeavor in opposition to "industrial" agriculture, Guthman explains how organic farming has replicated what it set out to oppose.

Free Download Clifford A. Pickover, "The Paradox of God and the Science of Omniscience"
English | 2004 | pages: 272 | ISBN: 1403964572, 0312294115 | EPUB | 5,8 mb
In his most ambitious book yet, Clifford Pickover bridges the gulf between logic, spirit, science, and religion. While exploring the concept of omniscience, Pickover explains the kinds of relationships limited beings can have with an all-knowing God. Pickover’s thought exercises, controversial experiments, and practical analogies help us transcend our ordinary lives while challenging us to better understand our place in the cosmos and our dreams of a supernatural God. Through an inventive blend of science, history, philosophy, science fiction, and mind-stretching brainteasers, Pickover unfolds the paradoxes of God like no other writer. He provides glimpses into the infinite, allowing us to think big, and to have daring, limitless dreams.
