LarryBoy and the Emperor of Envy - Sean Gaffney - Bog - Zondervan - Plusbog.dk

LarryBoy and the Emperor of Envy - Sean Gaffney - Bog - Zondervan - Plusbog.dk

"The city of Bumblyburg’s in danger and LarryBoy’s the only one who can save the day. Everyone is weak with jealousy after the diabolical Napoleon of Crime and Other Bad Stuff—a.k.a. the Emperor of Envy— tainted the Slushee supply with his envy formula during Mister Slushee’s Slushee Slurping Contest. The Emperor has set the ultimate envy trap, and he and his “army” of henchmen are taking over the city of Bumblyburg. The whole town has slurped some of the Slushees, including LarryBoy. What will LarryBoy do? Will he conquer his own envy? If he doesn’t stop the evil emperor, Bumblyburg will be destroyed forever."

Envy - Helmut Schoeck - Bog - Liberty Fund Inc - Plusbog.dk

Envy - Helmut Schoeck - Bog - Liberty Fund Inc - Plusbog.dk

Envy was first published in German in 1966, then in an English translation in 1970. This classic study is one of the few books to explore extensively the many facets of envy -- "a drive which lies at the core of man''s life as a social being." Ranging widely over literature, philosophy, psychology, and the social sciences, Professor Schoeck -- a distinguished sociologist and anthropologist -- elucidates both the constructive and destructive consequences of envy in social life. Perhaps most importantly he demonstrates that not only the impetus toward a totalitarian regime but also the egalitarian impulse in democratic societies are alike in being rooted in envy.

Envy – The Enemy Within - Bob Sorge - Bog - Baker Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

Envy – The Enemy Within - Bob Sorge - Bog - Baker Publishing Group - Plusbog.dk

Envy might well be termed the silent sin. Because while all of us envy others to some extent, few of us acknowledge our problem out loud, let alone try to overcome it and move forward. Bob Sorge draws upon his own pastoral experience--plus the admitted burden of his own envy--to show why and how it can adversely affect the ministry of a church and even prevent revival in people''s lives. Sorge reveals why comparison of our ministry and spiritual gifts to that of our fellow believers is to be avoided at all costs so that we do not hamstring God''s plan for our growth and the accomplishment of His purposes. This is a must-read for leaders of all churches, great and small--and anyone who wants the peace that comes with a life free of envy.

Envy - Joseph Epstein - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Envy - Joseph Epstein - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Part of a series of highly entertaining books on the history of sinning.While each of the other six deadly sins area a guilty pleasure, ''the green-eyed monster'', as it is often called, is no fun. Jacob Epstein considers what the experts have written about envy, schadenfreude, and resentment, and how it operates under different political systems. Why is it so powerful that it can so easily overpower sense and caution? Could it ever be wiped from the map of humankind''s nastier emotions? The author bravely offers his own experiences of envy, and his prescription for removing it from one''s psychic economy. This is a refreshingly honest and very entertaining account of a very old sin.

Envy - Yuri Olesha - Bog - New York Review Books - Plusbog.dk

Envy - Yuri Olesha - Bog - New York Review Books - Plusbog.dk

A NEW YORK REVIEW BOOKS ORIGINALOne of the delights of Russian literature, a tour de force that has been compared to the best of Nabokov and Bulgakov, Yuri Olesha''s novella Envy brings together cutting social satire, slapstick humor, and a wild visionary streak. Andrei is a model Soviet citizen, a swaggeringly self-satisfied mogul of the food industry who intends to revolutionize modern life with mass-produced sausage. Nikolai is a loser. Finding him drunk in the gutter, Andrei gives him a bed for the night and a job as a gofer. Nikolai takes what he can, but that doesn''t mean he''s grateful. Griping, sulking, grovelingly abject, he despises everything Andrei believes in, even if he envies him his every breath.Producer and sponger, insider and outcast, master and man fight back and forth in the pages of Olesha''s anarchic comedy. It is a contest of wills in which nothing is sure except the incorrigible human heart.Marian Schwartz''s new English translation of Envy brilliantly captures the energy of Olesha''s masterpiece.

Sparrow Envy - J. Drew Lanham - Bog - Hub City Press - Plusbog.dk

Sparrow Envy - J. Drew Lanham - Bog - Hub City Press - Plusbog.dk

“You are a rare bird, easy to see but invisible just the same.” That thought is close at hand in Sparrow Envy: Field Guide to Birds and Lesser Beasts , as renowned naturalist and writer J. Drew Lanham explores his obsession with birds and all things wild in a mixture of poetry and prose. He questions vital assumptions taken for granted by so many birdwatchers: can birding be an escape if the birder is not in a safe place? Who is watching him as he watches birds? With a refreshing balance of reverence and candor, Lanham paints a unique portrait of the natural world: listening to cicadas, tracking sandpipers, towhees, wrens, and cataloging fellow birdwatchers at a conference where he is one of two black birders. The resulting insights are as honest as they are illuminating.
