Описание: Janet Jacobsen writes with candor, compassion, and refreshing humor about her adventure with cancer. The book reveals her holistic healing approach, which includes calming emotional and spiritual practices, as well as the diet and alternative treatments that have extended her life, and possibly even cured her cancer. It is a compelling journey of physical, emotional, and spiritual healing. On this journey she faced her worst fears and discovered the surprising gifts inherent in adversity. When it seems that life has turned on us, it has instead turned us ON, turning up the light and volume of our aliveness. This book is a valuable guide for anyone with life challenges who wants to be uplifted, touched, encouraged, informed, and even amused. Yes, it's true...we can find humor in ANYTHING After the initial shock of her cancer diagnosis, she realized that it was the ultimate personal growth opportunity and was determined to get the most growth she could from it. It was also an opportunity to do the inspirational writing she always said she'd do someday. Cancer kicked her 'someday' into 'write now' She began writing about her cancer journey and sharing it with others in a newsletter. When the cancer returned as a tumor the size of a lemon, her first reaction was, "Oh no, not another 'growth' opportunity " Being given a lemon-a really sour, potentially lethal lemon-she was determined to turn it into sweet lemonade. If time was short, as her doctor predicted, she wanted to get as much juice as she could out of it-to live, love, learn, and grow fully, and share it all with others. This book contains the inspiring essays she wrote on her journey and reveals the gold she mined along the way. Here are some responses to the essays in this book: "What a wonderful essay So clear and deep, an inner ocean of knowing - beautiful " -Mary-Margaret Moore, Author of I Come As A Brother (by Bartholomew) "I am delighted each time I read another one of these essays - so rich - so inspiring - so reminding " -Dale Figtree, Author of Beyond Cancer Treatment "What a fabulous set of insights and learnings expressed in a right-now way." -Kathlyn Hendricks, Co-Author of Conscious Loving "I love and am deeply touched by these insights. I have often wondered how people feel when they go through the 'cancer experience.' Now I know how a very aware person feels, and how they handle it." -Pamala Oslie, Author of Life Colors "Such an inspirational message. I enjoyed it and smiled often while reading it, and actually said 'wow' out loud twice." -Walter Witkowski, Teacher "Each essay captivates me with its rawness, honesty, insight, and inspiration. I gain so much from each one of them and apply it to my own journey with cancer." -Martha McVay

The First General History in English of the Germanic People Who Sacked Rome in the Fifth Century AD and Established a Kingdom in North Africa

The fifth century AD was a time of great changes in the Mediterranean world. In the early 400s, the Roman Empire ranged from the lowlands of Scotland to the Upper Nile and from Portugal to the Caucasus. It was almost at its widest extent, and although ruled by two emperors--one in the West and one in the East--it was still a single empire. One hundred years later, Roman control of Western Europe and Western North Africa had been lost. In its place, a number of Germanic kingdoms had been established in these regions, with hundreds of thousands of Germanic and other peoples settling permanently inside the former borders of the Western Roman Empire.

One of the most fascinating of these tribes of late antiquity were the Vandals, who over a period of six hundred years had migrated from the woodland regions of Scandinavia across Europe and ended in the deserts of North Africa. In A History of the Vandals, the first general account in English covering the entire story of the Vandals from their emergence to the end of their kingdom, historian Torsten Cumberland Jacobsen pieces together what we know about the Vandals, sifting fact from fiction. In the middle of the fifth century the Vandals, who professed Arianism, a form of Christianity considered heretical by the Roman emperor, created the first permanent Germanic successor state in the West and were one of the deciding factors in the downfall of the Western Roman Empire. Later Christian historians described their sack of Rome in 455 and their vehement persecution of Catholics in their kingdom, accounts that were sensationalized and gave birth to the term "vandalism."
