Rabbi Haskel Lindenthal was born in Poland in 1916 and came to the United States via Palestine in 1940. from the dust jacket: "He takes us on his journey...childhood days as one of seven siblings in Wyzan...years in Suvalk, Grodno, Vilna and Mir as a student in Poland's yehsivos...nights as guardian of his people in the Hagganah of Palestine...days and nights as Rabbi of his community in America. He introduces us to Chofetz Chayim and the Chazon-eesh whom he met, studied under and worked for. He speaks of defeating the Angel of Death on several occasions, but nothing would protect him from the devastation of a burned-out house, the frustrations of a language barrier or the eternal agony caused by the murder of his entire family by the Nazis. Still he writes of Faith and Hope."

In an era of troubled global economies, stifled trade, and a daunting unemployment rate, Americans find themselves staring into the abyss of an uncertain future. Sound familiar? Todays economic problems are an echo of similar anxiety felt by Americans in 1838, when The Supra-Treasury Bill was first published. This document seeks to identify and address the myriad economic and civic problems facing our nation during its first sixty-two years by pointing her citizens to the traditions of Christianity. It proposes that our 19th century counterparts could alleviate civil difficulties by remembering the temporary nature of the world and trusting in the overarching wisdom of God. The Supra-Treasury Bill examines how the first citizens tackled economic strife and provides a refreshing view on the tradition of Providence in American struggle. The legacy of the bill suggests that modern Americans might benefit from many of the moral and practical lessons within. Through the use anecdotes, scripture, economic theory, and nationalism the authors aim to help readers navigate the hard times of any country in economic and moral turmoil.

The threat of a connected world creates a deep-in-the-gut fear for many leaders. The Internet and especially social media shout: Danger! Personal lives, careers, businesses, and organizations are all at risk of damage so overwhelming it doesn't even have a name. Is it the risk of public failure? Having to do things differently? Loss of control over the dialogue? Bad reviews of us or our organizations? Attacks by whackadoodles? All of the above? What is so frightening? Fear of losing control over every little detail prevents attention to details that do matter. Meanwhile precious energy is lost protecting yourself and your organization from change that's not fully understood or appreciated. Exhaustion and inertia kick in. Bottom lines go red. Now that is the truly scary stuff. Readers of Matterness will escape this trap. Matterness: • Recognizes with the real and imagined dangers of social media without coddling • Emphasizes the dignity and value of each person's voice in a truly connected world • Gets to the heart of why so many people feel powerless when they should be feeling powerful • Uncorks and pours a tall measure of perspective on the remarkable opportunities of the social age, and a bit of fire-in-the-belly encouragement to make the most of them This book explains that we don't need better people; we need better leaders who focus on the stuff that matters. When people matter the most, the priorities change. We begin to see our organizations from the outside in, listen to suggestions and ideas, work with and not at other people and organizations. When we're in conversation and connected we can direct how we want to work, get to the essence of our personal or professional goals, and make work manageable and enjoyable again. If Customer Relations, HR, and Leadership had a social media lovechild, they'd call it Matterness.
