		<description><![CDATA[Last March I posted The Reading Roundup. I got a lot of comments and suggestions from readers, and so I&#8217;d like to make this a regular feature, perhaps once a quarter, provided I&#8217;ve actually read enough.
So, here is a list of some  books I&#8217;ve enjoyed  since the last Roundup, though a few which I forgot [...]]]></description>

While the chance to become a celebrity lures contestants, I think it’s the grueling rite of passage that lures viewers.

Frankl’s analogy of learning to fly and how he learned to aim &#8216;north&#8217; to arrive at his destination, reminded me of my high school yearbook quote. In the 70s, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As I’ve written about before, solving the problems of bullying depends on the society’s tolerance for abusive interaction. My good friend and colleague, Dawn Menken, psychotherapist and conflict resolution educator, wrote this thoughtful piece for the Oregonian last week. She raises many thought-provoking questions, and asks us to look at how we define bullying. Until [...]]]></description>

I must confess to being pretty disheartened by the violent tone of political discourse. David Brooks wrote about it last week, putting the problem in historical perspective. He calls the current polarization a war, a government war, [...]]]></description>
