  • DIVERSITY WITHOUT DOGMA
    GILMORE CROSBY
    Social Scientist Kurt Lewin said, "No research without action, and no action without research." Too much of the current DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) approach is insight-based instead of action-based. Even though institutional racism is identified as the root problem, the change effort is focused on looking inward for bias instead of taking action to eliminate institut...

  • FAITH AND FREEDOM
    DONALD A. CROSBY

This book subverts that idea by showing how it is actually ongoing inquiry, examination, and indeed change, requiring similarly ...

    GILMORE CROSBY
    Leadership is poorly understood because human systems are poorly understood.

Leadership Can Be Learned: Clarity, Connection, and Results charts the c...

  • MULTIPLE STRESSES IN ECOSYSTEMS
    JR. CECH / BARRY W. WILSON / DONALD G. CROSBY
    Ecotoxicology is the evaluation of toxic effects within the environment, typically within one specific ecosystem, like a forest, stream, or lake.

  • FAITHLORE
    JOHN FULLING CROSBY
    Crosby claims that much of the Bible is myth. Since some myth may be true, the next step is to label that part of myth adjudged to be untrue, such as folklore. But myth and folklore are not necessarily the same. Lore serves further as an interpretation, elucidation, embellishment, or spin upon the myth. This lore, in turn, may help clarify one's beliefs or it may enable one to ...
