Jacob's Journey is an ageless tale of wisdom and compassion that follows Jacob the Baker on a journey to restore inner peace - a moving sequel to the international best-seller Jacob the Baker. Once there was a time when Jacob, a poor but pious baker, lived an anonymous life in a timeless community. Then all of that changed, changed forever, when one of Jacob's remarkable little notes to himself found its way into the village's bread. He became regarded as a wise man, and the townspeople sought him out for advice and commentary. All the while, Jacob struggled to maintain his simple life as a baker. Now, when the town decides to honor him, Jacob is caught by their attention. He undertakes a journey to restore his sense of well being, to reconnect with simpler things. Jacob's Journey chronicles that spiritual journey. This is a fable not about being well known, but about knowing yourself well. When Jacob realizes he must leave his house if he is ever to come home, he discovers that the first person he meets along the way is himself. As he puts it: "A man who is alone with himself is not without company." Since each of us is alone on our journey, we sometimes pack our fears for company. From now on, you may want to turn to Jacob, a wise and gentle friend, a friend who allows you distance but is never far away. Here are some of Jacob's s thoughts to take with you along the way: "Taking a moment expands time." "Growing old is a contradiction in terms." "What we see in others is another way of looking at ourselves." "When we shut our eyes, is it the truth that goes into hiding?" "A giant is anyone who remembers we are all sitting on someone else's shoulders." This book is a treasure of plain-spoken wisdom, a book about a humble man with a vision that will inspire and comfort you.
This book was written and used as an educational tool when Jacob was being mainstreamed with neurotypical children for the 1st time. The book was read to the children before Jacob started each grade at school and before joining any recreational activity. A marked difference was seen in how Jacob was received and accepted when the children were educated on his specific disability. We were encouraged to publish this book so it could be used as an educational resource for others.
Running through the heart of Colombia is a river emblematic of the fascination and tragedy of South America, the Magdalena. Considered by some to be the most dangerous place in the world, travellers along the river - for centuries the only route into the vast South American interior - were at the mercy of tropical disease, dangerous animals and precarious barges. A third of the victims of 'la violencia', Colombia's period of civil conflict which began in the 1950s, ended up in its waters. Townships alongside it have experienced some of the worst massacres in South American history. In 2011, Michael Jacobs travelled its whole length to the river's source high up in Andean moorlands controlled by guerrillas. In spellbinding prose, he charts the dangers he negotiated - including a terrifying three day encounter with the FARC - while uncovering the river's history of pioneering explorations, environmental decline and political violence. As Jacobs delves into the history of destruction and decay along the river, he also makes a deeply personal exploration into memory and its loss: not far from the river's banks lies a group of townships with the highest incidence of early onset Alzheimer's in the world. Jacobs reflects on the lives of his father, and his mother - sufferers respectively from Alzheimer's and dementia - as he travels upstream towards what comes to seem like a heartland of mystery, magic and darkness.

Jewish by birth, though from a secular family, Alan Morinis explored Hinduism and Buddhism as a young man. But in 1997, in the face of personal crisis, he turned to his Jewish heritage for guidance. In his reading he happened upon a Jewish spiritual tradition called Mussar. Gradually he realized that he had stumbled upon an insightful discipline for self-development, complete with meditative, contemplative, and other well-developed transformative practices designed to penetrate the deepest roots of the inner life. Eventually reaching the limits of what he could learn on his own, he decided to seek out a Mussar teacher. This was not an easy task, since almost the entire world of the Mussar tradition had been wiped out in the Holocaust. In time, he found an accomplished master who stood in an unbroken line of transmission of the Mussar tradition, and who lived in the center of a community of Orthodox Jews on Long Island. This book tells the story of Morinis’s journey to meet his teacher and what he learned from him, revealing the central teachings and practices that are the spiritual treasury and legacy of Mussar.
