Ebook About We’ve pursued and achieved the modern dream of defining ourselves—but at what cost? The New York Post op-ed editor makes a compelling case for seeking the inherited traditions and ideals that give our lives meaning.“Ahmari’s tour de force makes tradition astonishingly vivid and relevant for the here and now.”—Rod Dreher, bestselling author of Live Not by Lies and The Benedict OptionAs a young father and a self-proclaimed “radically assimilated immigrant,” opinion editor Sohrab Ahmari realized that when it comes to shaping his young son’s moral fiber, today’s America comes up short. For millennia, the world’s great ethical and religious traditions taught that true happiness lies in pursuing virtue and accepting limits. But now, unbound from these stubborn traditions, we are free to choose whichever way of life we think is most optimal—or, more often than not, merely the easiest. All that remains are the fickle desires that a wealthy, technologically advanced society is equipped to fulfill.The result is a society riven by deep conflict and individual lives that, for all their apparent freedom, are marked by alienation and stark unhappiness.In response to this crisis, Ahmari offers twelve questions for us to grapple with—twelve timeless, fundamental queries that challenge our modern certainties. Among them: Is God reasonable? What is freedom for? What do we owe our parents, our bodies, one another? Exploring each question through the life and ideas of great thinkers, from Saint Augustine to Howard Thurman and from Abraham Joshua Heschel to Andrea Dworkin, Ahmari invites us to examine the hidden assumptions that drive our behavior and, in so doing, to live more humanely in a world that has lost its way.Book The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Review :
There are those rare times when you read a work, and by the last page you are a changed person. These writings... these authors... communicate ideas and truths that make you stop. They make your reflect. And most importantly, they make you begin to live your life differently. This happened to me when I first read C.S. Lewis' essay... "On the Reading of Old Books." (OK, lots of Jack's writing did that to me.)Sohrab Ahmari has written such a book. Interestingly, I didn't have to wait until the end to experience this. For me, I had to stop and reflect in a deep way after just the third chapter! It is on the Sabbath.This book is a sweeping journey across some of the world's greatest thinkers: spanning time, geography, and culture. Ahmari masterfully weaves these thinkers and ideas into a book that addresses the chaos of today. His book subdues the chaos not with chains and ropes but with the unbroken threads of wisdom and tradition.Turn off the news... turn off the noise... read this book. Fabulous writer, given a super-cheap printing, Ahmari deserves much better than this publisher and printer delivered.Although acid-free, the quality of the paper is about as cheap as one gets for a hardcover book.Editorially, the publisher should be ashamed:1. No chapter titles at the tops of pages, only the mindlessly repeated "The Unbroken Thread" at the top of the page at the left; and "Sohrab Ahmari" at the top of the page at the right. This is mindlessly done throughout the entire book. Well-published books have chapter #'s and chapter titles at the tops of the pages. Who on earth even needs the title of the book and the author at the top of every darn page throughout the entire book? This is a cheap-skate cheap-out way of not wanting to take the time and trouble to print chapter-specific headings for each page.2. Footnotes are at the back of the book, and one is stuck thumbing to the back, and trying to remember what chapter one is reading, in order to view the relevant footnotes. Again: this is such a cheap-out cheap-skate thing to do. At the very least, when footnotes are reserved to the end of the book like this, there ought to be page numbers for the footnotes, so that one need remember only what page you were reading, not having to look up -- almost every time -- what chapter you were reading.3. The index is also cheap-out: there are no subdivisions within any one index entry. So that if you are trying to find something that you knew you had read, but can't remember where in the book you read it, you are nonetheless stuck looking at multiple page # references in the index, with absolutely no context given as to what each referenced text is about. For example, if looking in the index under "Romans", one has six -- six!! -- different page numbers referenced in the text; with absolutely zero context given for each page # that is indexed. You are stuck looking through them all to find what you are trying to find. This is super-lazy "editing", and I think doesn't even qualify for that term, because the index might as well have been assembled by an A.I. software program that just scans the text for key words, to make it look like the book has actually been indexed by a thinking human being. What a cheap-out.4. It appears that the pages are not sewn, but glued to the spine. This is, again, a super cheap-out.For $23, the publisher and printer gave the reader nothing near the quality of workmanship that finer books show. If I had to make the purchase again, I would buy it used, for sure. As printed, this book is cheaply made, at a high price.My advice to the author: if you write another book, find a publisher who respects you enough not to publish a cheap-skate book. Find a publisher who respects you enough to print higher quality paper; better chapter headings; better index; better footnotes; etc. Read Online The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Download The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos PDF The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Mobi Free Reading The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Download Free Pdf The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos PDF Online The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Mobi Online The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Reading Online The Unbroken Thread: Discovering the Wisdom of Tradition in an Age of Chaos Read Online Sohrab Ahmari Download Sohrab Ahmari Sohrab Ahmari PDF Sohrab Ahmari Mobi Free Reading Sohrab Ahmari Download Free Pdf Sohrab Ahmari PDF Online Sohrab Ahmari Mobi Online Sohrab Ahmari Reading Online Sohrab AhmariBest Down By Contact: A Second Chance Gay Sports Romance (Tackled By Love Book 1) By Quinn Ward
