  "We need more writers with bite. We have lived in the flatlands too long," writes John Barnie in one of his 'observations' ('Art in the Flatlands'). And bite he delivers.
  
  Ranging across politics, history, culture, ecological disaster, the meaning of truth, poetry, what we mean by identity and more… Barnie shares a window onto the world that is both erudite and particular. Leaning towards pessimism in a darkening world, these observations are often provocative, not from any bullish desire to antagonise, but as the result of mining a rationalist line of thought with an honesty and consistency that is applied as much to the author as to his subjects. There is a clarity here that some may find uncomfortable, but the aim is always dialogue above agreement; intellectual engagement above cheap solutions and sentimentality.
  
  Barnie asks us to think, consider and dig deeper, but most of all he asks that we "…live richly among our secondary self-created meanings, while recognising them for what they are. To face without flinching the nullity of the great void." ('Varieties of Meaning')
  Tsunami Days is a vital collection of essays for those prepared to engage with its unflinching observations.

  Be Fruitful and Multiply - How...

  A groundbreaking history that explores how human desires have affected our relationship with the natural world, and why this is a cause for hope Donald Worster looks back over 200,000 years of Homo sapiens to show how human nature, especially the drive for food and sex, has responded to environmental conditions throughout history. Examining how this process led from foraging to the agrarian revolution and then to a capitalist way of life, Worster brings us face to face with a third transformation of human society that is beginning to take shape in China: an ecological civilization. This meticulously researched book explores how human desires have driven us to overrun our environments, and how we have adapted by creating new relationships with the earth. Tying the past to the future and humans to the planet, Worster acknowledges that we are at a potentially dangerous tipping point. Yet he offers a surprisingly optimistic vision, full of faith in the strength of our human desires, to help us develop exciting futures in a changing world—as we have done time and again—and achieve a good life for the billions of us trying to survive on a finite planet.

  My Dawah Letter to Psychiatrists...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  Have you ever wondered if your psychiatric diagnosis is treating symptoms of spiritual crisis rather than mental illness? What if the mental health crisis that changed your life wasn't a chemical imbalance at all, but a spiritual battle that psychiatry refuses to acknowledge? This heartful academic testimony challenges everything you thought you knew about mental illness, religious practice, and the hidden assumptions behind psychiatric diagnoses. 
   
  Can psychiatry truly be professionally unprejudiced when it denies the existence of God, Prophethood, Divine Revelation, Angels, Demons, Magic, and spiritual realities? This book will challenge mental health professionals to examine the hidden religious assumptions in their supposedly secular practice, and offer hope to anyone who's been told their spiritual beliefs are symptoms of illness. Through extensive psychoanalysis, prophetic evidence, sociological historical facts and brutally honest self-examination, the author invites mental health professionals to reconsider the foundations of their practice and explore whether Islamic spiritual treatment offers answers that pharmaceutical intervention and secular psychotherapy cannot provide. If you've ever questioned whether psychiatry truly understands the human soul, this book provides answers you won't find in any DSM manual. 
   
  "My Dawah Letter to Psychiatrists and Therapists" offers a perspective on mental health that you've never encountered-one that challenges the very foundations of secular psychiatry while offering hope for complete healing through Islamic spiritual development. Whether you're a mental health professional questioning your field's limitations, a religious person who's been pathologized for your beliefs, or someone seeking answers beyond pharmaceutical intervention, this book will transform how you understand the relationship between faith, mental health, and human growth.

  Evolution Is Wrong - A Radical...

  A Fascinating Exploration on Why the Darwinists’ Theory No Longer Explains EverythingThere was once a set of ideas called the theory of evolution, conceived by clever people and confirmed by countless scientists. Then people discovered the electron microscope. This made it possible to make the molecules within the cell visible, and suddenly questions about evolution arose that were not possible before. Which force actually bundles the atoms in the right order? What moves the molecular chains into the correct position? How did the first living unit within the cell actually come about? How does inheritance work, how does information pass on to the next generation? Did humans descend only and exclusively from primates—as Charles Darwin and countless other great minds assumed—or did additional “engines” intervene in evolution? Today it is clear: countless questions can no longer be answered with the previous theory of evolution. There is a form of life called “Blob” (Physarum polycephalum). The “thing” has neither eyes nor ears, neither a mouth nor a nose or even a brain. Nevertheless, it takes in food, overcomes obstacles by the shortest route and exchanges information with other “blobs.” The “blob” contradicts any evolutionary thought that one develops from the other. Or the “gastric-brooding frogs” (Rheobatrachus) found in Australia. They hatch their young in the stomach. Impossible in a slow, evolutionary process. Everywhere there are characteristics of animals that do not want to fit into the theory of evolution anywhere. And man? Are we really the most adapted life-form on this planet? Today, more and more scientists who contradict the previous theory of evolution speak out. The theory fits the changes within the species, but it can no longer be reconciled with the inner workings of the cell. Some other influence that has so far escaped us is affecting evolution. It is called “Intelligent Design.” Intelligent planning is suspected behind this. Anyone or anything—a spirit of the universe? Aliens?—could be behind this planning. Erich von Däniken uses countless examples to demonstrate the impossibility of the previous evolutionary idea. He quotes scientists who argue against the previous teaching, but also those who defend it. Unfortunately, established science still refuses to look at discrepancies and holes in the theory of evolution, even though it is quite obvious that there is more going on with regard to the development of all species, as well as human culture, than could be explained by the theory of evolution alone.
