  Why? The Purpose of the Universe

  Why are we here? What's the point of existence? On the "big questions" of meaning and purpose, Western thought has been dominated by the dichotomy of traditional religion and secular atheism. In this pioneering work, Philip Goff argues that it is time to move on from both God and atheism. Through an exploration of contemporary cosmology and cutting-edge philosophical research on consciousness, Goff argues for cosmic purpose: the idea that the universe is directed towards certain goals, such as the emergence of life. 
   
   
   
  In contrast to religious thinkers, Goff argues that the traditional God is a bad explanation of cosmic purpose. Instead, he explores a range of alternative possibilities for accounting for cosmic purpose, from the speculation that we live in a computer simulation to the hypothesis that the universe itself is a conscious mind. Goff scrutinizes these options with analytical rigor, laying the foundations for a new paradigm of philosophical inquiry into the middle ground between God and atheism. Ultimately, Goff outlines a way of living in hope that cosmic purpose is still unfolding, involving political engagement and a non-literalist interpretation of traditional religion.

  The social contract & discourses

  Jean-Jacques Rousseau

  In The Social Contract & Discourses, Jean Jacques Rousseau delves into the complexities of political and social philosophy. His work outlines the concept of the "social contract," a foundational theory that proposes individuals come together to form a collective body in which they agree to abide by the "general will." Rousseau critiques the inequality and corruption present in traditional systems of governance and advocates for a republic where the sovereignty lies with the people. The book discusses how the ideal state should be structured to ensure the preservation of freedom and equality for all citizens. Rousseau also examines human nature, arguing that while people are born free, society imposes constraints that limit their liberty. The text includes discourses on inequality, the origins of social structures, and the corrupting influence of civilization. This work remains a critical influence on modern political thought and offers profound insights into democracy, governance, and human rights.

  Pigeons - The Fascinating Saga...

  A "quirky, endlessly entertaining" look at the surprising history of the pigeon (Simon Winchester). 
   
   
    
  Domesticated since the dawn of man, pigeons have been used as crucial communicators in war by every major historical superpower from ancient Egypt to the United States and are credited with saving thousands of lives. They have been worshipped as fertility goddesses and revered as symbols of peace. Charles Darwin relied heavily on pigeons to help formulate and support his theory of evolution. Yet today they are reviled as "rats with wings." 
   
   
    
  To research this lively history of the humble pigeon, the author traveled across the United States and Europe to meet with pigeon fanciers and pigeon haters in a quest to find out how we came to misunderstand one of mankind’s most helpful and steadfast companions. Pigeons captures a Brooklyn man's quest to win the Main Event (the pigeon world's equivalent of the Kentucky Derby), as well as a convention dedicated to breeding the perfect bird. The author participates in a live pigeon shoot where entrants pay $150; he tracks down Mike Tyson, the nation's most famous pigeon lover; he spends time with Queen Elizabeth's Royal Pigeon Handler; and he sheds light on a radical "pro-pigeon underground" in New York City. In Pigeons, Andrew D. Blechman reveals for the first time the remarkable story behind this seemingly unremarkable bird.

  EATING DISORDERS FOOD ADDICTION...

  Food Addiction and Ulta-Processed Food Dependency are diseases typified by loss of control over the ability to stop eating certain foods. Scientifically, food addiction is a cluster of chemical dependencies on specific foods or food substances. After ingesting highly palatable foods, such as those containing significant amounts of sugar, flour, excess fat, and/or salt, some people’s brains crave these foods. In addition, the more processed a food or substance is, the greater its addictive potential. Over time, the progressive eating of these foods distorts a person’s thinking and leads to negative consequences they do not want but cannot stop. What follows is a description of these phenomena and how they are like and different from eating disorders. Further, the book explores the utilization of a substance abuse treatment model as it applies to recovering from these addictive and compulsive disorders.
