The World as I See It

Albert Einstein

Sinopsis

The World as I See It by Albert Einstein is a compelling collection of essays, letters, and reflections that reveal the philosophical and humanistic side of one of the greatest scientific minds of the 20th century. Rather than focusing on his scientific theories, this book presents Einstein’s thoughts on a wide range of subjects, including politics, religion, education, ethics, war, and the meaning of life. Through these writings, readers gain insight into Einstein’s moral compass, his ideals, and his vision for a better world.Einstein writes with clarity, humility, and a deep sense of responsibility toward humanity. He was not only a physicist but also a pacifist, a humanitarian, and a global citizen. In the book, he discusses his concerns about nationalism, militarism, and the destructive potential of war. He advocates for international cooperation, disarmament, and the promotion of peace, believing that science and reason must serve humanity, not destroy it.Religion and spirituality also play a role in Einstein’s worldview. He describes a kind of cosmic religious feeling—a deep reverence for the laws of nature and the vastness of the universe—without aligning himself with traditional religious dogma. For him, science and spirituality were not in conflict but were complementary ways of understanding existence.Education, in Einstein’s view, should focus not merely on the accumulation of facts but on nurturing independent thinking, creativity, and moral character. He criticizes rigid systems of schooling that stifle curiosity and emphasizes the importance of intellectual freedom and lifelong learning.Throughout the book, Einstein’s commitment to justice, truth, and simplicity shines through. He often reflects on the role of the individual in society, expressing the belief that every person has a duty to work toward the common good. His tone is thoughtful and earnest, making his reflections as relevant today as they were in his time.The World as I See It is not just a portrait of Einstein the scientist, but Einstein the philosopher and humanitarian. It offers timeless wisdom and invites readers to think more deeply about their values, their place in the world, and their responsibilities as human beings. The book stands as a testament to the idea that science, ethics, and compassion can—and should—coexist.

Growing Upward - My Lifelong...

Dustin Pead

Growing up, I never thought any of my thoughts were unhealthy. I assumed, like most of us, through the lens of childhood innocence that everyone thought the way I did. I remember thinking regularly that my life and experiences are no different than anyone else’s, rationalizing the abnormalities of childhood in the ’80s and ’90s where the drama was so regular it felt normal. Most of this book still, in a way, feels normal. But it’s only through the lens of living a life with others and a close connection to my God that I realize how broken we all are. 
If you have ever struggled with having your thoughts control your life rather than you being in control of your thoughts, this book is for you. It’s always been important to me to be authentic, open, and honest with how I’m feeling. It has gotten me in trouble many times, but overall, I still feel like being vulnerable is worth it. This book is a vulnerable attempt to have readers relate to the struggle that many of us still aren’t comfortable addressing in ourselves. 
Through over a decade of struggling therapy, reflection, learning to grieve, I believe my story will resonate with others like me. I want them to know, that although their story is unique, they are not alone in this battle. They, like me, can overcome. I want to tell you my story of growing upward.

Women Who Wear Only Themselves -...

Arundhathi Subramaniam

In this inspiring book of divine discovery, poet and seeker Arundhathi Subramaniam gives us a glimpse into the lives of four self-contained, unapologetic female spiritual travelers. 
“Among the finest pieces of spiritual truth-telling literature I have ever read … A book to savor and celebrate.”—Mirabai Starr, author of Wild Mercy and Ordinary Mysticism 
“As the pages turn, one feels a growing sense of shared humanity, even kinship, with these extraordinary practitioners of the sacred.”—Tim Parks, author of Teach Us to Sit Still: A Skeptic’s Search for Health and Healing 
In life, spiritual paths are often as unique as we are. Bringing together the voices of four women mystics walking very different spiritual paths, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam reveals the expansive potential of forging an intimate, personal connection with the divine. We'll meet these four travelers:Sri Annapurani Amma, who left the safety of home to follow the summons of a long-dead saint and chooses to live naked,Balarishi Vishwashirasini, a nada yoga teacher who became a guru as a child and admits she's missed out on a real childhood,Lata Mani, who discovered tantra after a major accident left her with a brain injury and today talks of how the spiritual life is deeply anchored in the wisdom of the body—not unlike the redwood trees of her adopted home, andMaa Karpoori, who needed to resist pressure to marry, and found her calling in a local yoga class and now radiates fierce independence and the contagious joy of living. 
Sensitive, insightful, and lyrical, Women Who Wear Only Themselves bathes us in the kind of mystery that feels deeply familiar and invites us to connect with whatever sparks our spiritual fire.

100 Mandela Moments

Kate Sidley

Here is Nelson Mandela the statesman, the prisoner, the father, sometimes the joker, and occasionally the disciplinarian. Mandela is shown in snapshot, in the memories of old friends like George Bizos, in the words of inspiring legends like Muhammed Ali, leading the Defiance Campaign against apartheid laws, or doing the famous Madiba shuffle to Ladysmith Black Mambazo with Queen Elizabeth II. 100 Mandela Moments is an accessible introduction to the man who so profoundly influenced the South Africa of today. The story of his life that emerges is as varied and complex, as touching and inspiring, as Madiba himself.

The Chain - Love Betrayal and...

Chimene Suleyman

“[Suleyman’s] narration brings a palpably chilling authority to a story she shouldn’t have to tell.” — Vulture 
A devastating personal testimony and a searing indictment of persistent misogyny. 
In January 2017, Chimene Suleyman was on her way to an abortion clinic in Queens, New York with her boyfriend, the father of her nascent child. It was the last day they would spend together. In an extraordinary sequence of events, Chimene was to discover the truth of her boyfriend's life: that the man she’d loved had gaslit, lied to, stolen from, and painfully betrayed her and many others. 
In this spellbinding memoir, Suleyman exposes one man's control over many women and the trauma he left behind and celebrates the sisterhood that formed in his wake despite—and in spite of—him. With radiant prose and incisive observation, Suleyman questions society’s complicity in allowing those who would do women harm to flourish and contemplates why others remain silent witnesses by accepting and normalizing shameless behavior towards women. She demonstrates how women themselves are acculturated to perform prescribed roles of giver and nurturer, to be self-sacrificing and subordinate, and to bolster the egos of others by remaining silent and ignoring their own protective instincts. 
A soul-baring story, brilliant cultural critique, and celebration of the healing power of sisterhood, The Chain is a book for any woman who has questioned her relationship and buried her doubts, for any woman who can't quite identify the source of her unease and for any woman who has been sheltered by the fierce protection of her female friends.
