Spectacular and rare folding guide A New Chart of History by Joseph Priestley, first published in 1769, in London, Great Britain. The Chart is dedicated to Benjamin Franklin and was created to accompany Priestley’s lectures on world history. The Chart of History lists events in 106 locations and illustrates the new theory that the entire world’s history was significant, the belief that started with Voltaire and W. Robertson. In the Chart, the world’s history is divided into several geographical locations: America, Africa, China, Germany, Great Britain, France, India, Italy, Persia, Poland, Russia, Scandinavia, Spain and Turkey. It shows the history of empires and the passing of power, and accompanied by a Short Explanation. The Chart became extremely popular and went through 15 editions from 1769 to 1816. This fully restored version is of 1805, the year of the Battle of Trafalgar.

Joseph Priestley (24 March 1733 – 6 February 1804) was an English chemist, natural philosopher, theologian, grammarian, multi-subject educator and liberal political theorist. He published over 150 works and conducted research in various areas of science, including discovery of oxygen, carbonated water, experiments with electricity and gases. For his lectures and charts, Priestley was granted a Doctor of Law degree by University of Edinburgh. Priestley believed that that understanding of the natural world would promote human progress and eventually bring about the Christian millennium. His support of American and later the French Revolution has led to public contempt, forcing Priestley to flee to United States, Pennsylvania, where he spent his last ten years.

Not far enough!
Format: Hardcover
Like with all Yalom's novels, he gives us tidbits of himself in terms of self-revelations, but like all of his novels he goes head on into some heavy dialogues about life and the meaning it has or doesn't not have with his "patients". He learns perhaps at times more about himself than the "patients" reveal about themselves, at times the catharis is anything but what Yalom had expected or searched after, but via circumstances out of his "relationship" with them, they discover what it is they were seeking. Happenstance? A seed from the 'dialogue' between therapist and patient had been planted, only to be harvested in its own due time? Yalom certainly does provoke self-reflection, at least in this reader. Would that Yalom would actually have the courage to do more self-revealing about his own inner workings, his own emotional state(s) as he grows older and toward eventual death. But, he refrains from such disclosures just when it seems he is about to pull the curtain to show himself (kinda like the Wizard of Oz, but there is no Toto to do the pulling for him). His intellectual acumen, his analytical mind, his creativity is evident in all his novels, and particularly in this series of 'case studies', but that curtain remains securely tied preventing any in depth self-revelation. Is the therapist "resistant"? His conviction of no after life makes intellectual sense to me, but the emotional content of 'fear' of the unknown is never explored, and sadly not. He could have provided us with an even more powerful invitation into self-awareness, I suspect, if he had gone down that pathway.

Required reading for novice (and maybe all?) therapists
Format: Hardcover
As a therapist-in training, this book made a powerful impact on me. As a father of two small children, on the verge of a professional milestone (PhD graduation in June), in the midst of an internship where I'm frequently working with children and teens coping with grief or trauma, mortality has been much on my mind lately, framing core values in my process of professional identity formation. In my five years of clinical training so far, I have increasingly become aware that the healing that occurs in therapy is much more about inter-relational "being" than "doing" (i.e the "sheer presence" of the therapist which Dr. Yalom describes in the book), and also that each successful therapy invents its own (often singular) techniques. This of course departs sharply from the idea that human suffering and its therapeutic repair could ever be helpfully reduced to categories or manuals. During my training in the current climate of "evidence-based practices," I have sometimes felt rather isolated adopting that position (although I am fortunate in my internship of finding many like-minded supervisors and colleagues). In that context, the insights imparted in this story collection serve as inspiring confirmation that I am on the right track, and offer a model of the type of therapist I aspire to be someday. I am grateful for the wise mentorship conveyed through Dr. Yalom's narratives.

A tribute to Kahlil Gibran's endearing and timeless messages.
Format: Kindle
The Prophet (Annotated)- New Modern complete Edition: Original 1923 Text and Illustrations by Kahlil Gibran, With Reflections for Today's World is a very interesting take on an old classic. I have read the original decades ago as well as Gibran's other works and found this version intriguing as it breaths new life through the interpretation of Jonathan Mirel after the original was written over a century ago. A tribute to its endearing and timeless messages.

A timeless treasure with a fresh touch
Format: Paperback
I’ve read this work before in different editions, this one really stands out. The original text and illustrations are kept intact, which gives it that authentic, almost sacred feeling. What makes it even better are the reflections that connect the ideas to modern life—it’s like the wisdom got updated without losing its soul. A beautiful mix of old and new.

Important read for today’s day and age
Format: Kindle
The Prophet by Khalil Gibran is a masterpiece of a work and an essential reading for anyone on the path of spirituality and self-realization. I love how the author has provided their own reflections from the modern perspective as well. I enjoyed that because I had already read this book, so reading the reflections helped me gain deeper insights.
