Option B : Facing Adversity, Building Resilience, and Finding Joy
In 2015 Sheryl Sandberg’s husband, Dave Goldberg, died suddenly at the age of forty-eight.Sandberg and her two young children were devastated, and she was certain that their lives would never have real joy or meaning again. Just weeks later, Sandberg was talking with a friend about the first father-child activity without a father.They came up with a plan for someone to fill in. “But I want Dave,” she cried. Her friend put his arm around her and said, “Option A is not available.So let’s just kick the shit out of Option B.”Everyone experiences some form of Option B.We all deal with loss: jobs lost, loves lost, lives lost.The question is not whether these things will happen but how we face them when they do. Thoughtful, honest, revealing and warm, OPTION B weaves Sandberg’s experiences coping with adversity with new findings from Adam Grant and other social scientists.The book features stories of people who recovered from personal and professional hardship, including illness, injury, divorce, job loss, sexual assault and imprisonment.These people did more than recover—many of them became stronger.OPTION B offers compelling insights for dealing with hardships in our own lives and helping others in crisis.It turns out that post-traumatic growth is common—even after the most devastating experiences many people don’t just bounce back but actually bounce forward. And pre-traumatic growth is also possible: people can build resilience even if they have not experienced tragedy.Sandberg and Grant explore how we can raise strong children, create resilient communities and workplaces, and find meaning, love and joy in our lives. “Dave’s death changed me in very profound ways,” Sandberg writes. “I learned about the depths of sadness and the brutality of loss.But I also learned that when life sucks you under, you can kick against the bottom, break the surface and breathe again.”

Innovation in Energy Security and Long-Term Energy Efficiency
The sustainable development of our planet depends on the use of energy. The growing population of the world inevitably causes an increase in the demand for energy, which, on the one hand, threatens the potential for shortages of energy supply, and, on the other hand, causes the deterioration of the environment.Therefore, our task is to reduce this demand through different innovative solutions (i.e., both technological and social). Social marketing and economic policies can also play a role in affecting the behavior of households and companies, by causing behavioral change oriented to energy stewardship, and an overall switch to renewable energy resources. This book provides a platform for the exchange of a wide range of ideas, which, ultimately, would facilitate the driving of societies to long-term energy efficiency.

The Benedict Option
Our churches are beset by challenges. From the outside, they are beset by a rapidly secularizing culture.From the inside, they're being hollowed out by the departure of young people and a watered-down spirituality.Many believers are blind to it, and their churches are too weak to resist.Those who notice are often frightened, and wonder what went wrong and what they can do about these trends. The Benedict Option is a guide for Christians under siege - a strategy that draws on the authority of scripture and the wisdom of the ancient church.The goal: to embrace exile from mainstream culture and construct a resilient counterculture.In this visionary book, Dreher urges today's faithful to be new St Benedicts, building up local churches, creating new schools and taking up practices that can help them face today's world with confidence. Horrified by the moral chaos following Rome's fall, St Benedict - a sixth-century monk - retreated to the forest and created a new way of life.He built enduring communities based on order, hospitality, stability and prayer.His spiritual centres of hope saved not just Christianity but Western civilization. The Benedict Option is both manifesto and rallying cry for Christians who, if they are not to be conquered anew, must learn how to fight on culture war battlefields like none the West has seen for fifteen hundred years.It's for all mere Christians - Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox - who can read the signs of the times.Neither false optimism nor fatalistic despair will do.Only faith, hope, and love, embodied in a renewed church, can sustain us.These are the days for building strong arks for the long journey across a sea of night.
