Sinossi

Carnation Facts explores the captivating story of Dianthus caryophyllus, revealing how this seemingly simple flower has deeply influenced culture, science, and history. From its ancient cultivation to its modern-day applications, the book uncovers the carnation's multifaceted significance. Intriguingly, the flower has served not only as a symbol of love and beauty but also as a subject of botanical study and a component in traditional medicine. 

 
 The book journeys through time, first examining the origins and historical cultivation of carnations.  It then progresses to an exploration of the flower's symbolic meanings across different cultures, analyzing its representation in art and literature.  A central focus is the examination of the carnation's medicinal properties, supported by both historical texts and modern scientific research.  This approach highlights the complex relationship between humans and the natural world. 

 
Carnation Facts emphasizes the carnation's versatility and adaptability, both biologically and symbolically. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of the cultural history, flower symbolism, and even potential medicinal properties of this widely recognized flower.  Through a blend of historical analysis, botanical insights, and scientific evidence, the book offers a comprehensive and engaging exploration of the carnation's enduring legacy.

    Dear You, 
    Welcome to your love letter. A letter signed to the secrets and celebrations that brought you here. The found family, and the lost innocence, and the wanderlust, and the returning home again in ways you never thought possible. Not to mention the whiskey and the sobriety and the streetlights and the sweet sleepless nights you danced through on your way to this moment. Welcome to the love letter to your leaving and arriving again. Here.     
    Letter to the Shooting Stars Among Us is a concoction of music and poetry that pushes the boundaries of genre and expectation. Flowing from spoken word poetry and hip-hop roots, it’s a personal and powerful testament to the beauty and heartbreak of wising up and self-discovery. Examining everything from breakups, illness, crustaceans, immigration, supernovas, God, tomatoes, seedy motels, and all those other memories you locked up somewhere safe, this book is a reminder to love deeply, live boldly, and seek beauty in unconventional spaces.   
    Music by Blake Clawson unless otherwise stated. The music for tracks 2, 9, and 14 composed by Jessie Smith. The music for track 7 composed by Dylan Thomas Doyle.

    Every adoption is rooted in loss. 
     
     
     
    Adoption is often framed by happy narratives, but the reality is that many adoptees struggle with unaddressed trauma and issues of identity and belonging. Adoptees often spend the majority of their youth without the language to explore the grief related to adoption or the permission to legitimize their conflicting emotions. 
     
     
     
    Adoptee and counselor Cameron Lee Small names the realities of the adoptee's journey, narrating his own and other adoptees' stories in all their complexity. He unpacks the history of how adoption has worked and names how the church influenced adoption practices with unintended negative impacts on adoptees' faith. Small's own tumultuous search for and reunion with his mother in Korea inspired him to help other adoptees navigate what it means to carry multiple stories. His adoptee-centered advocacy helps adoptees regain their agency and identity on a journey of integration and healing, with meaningful relationships in all their family systems.

    Why It's OK to Eat Meat

    In Why It's OK to Eat Meat, Dan C. Shahar argues the answer is no: it's entirely possible to be an ethical person while continuing to eat meat—and not just the "fancy" offerings from the farmers' market but also the regular meat we find at most supermarkets and restaurants. Shahar's examination forcefully echoes vegetarians' concerns about the meat industry's impacts on animals, workers, the environment, and public health. However, he shows that the most influential ethical arguments for avoiding meat on the basis of these considerations are ultimately unpersuasive. Instead of insisting we all become vegetarians, Shahar argues each of us has broad latitude to choose which of the world's problems to tackle. 
     
     
     
    Key Features include: 
     
     
     
    ● First book-length defense of meat-eating written for a popular audience 
     
     
     
    ● Punchy, accessible introduction to the multifaceted debate over the ethics of eating meat 
     
     
     
    ● Includes pioneering new examinations of humane labeling practices 
     
     
     
    ● Shows why appeals to universalized patterns of behavior can't vindicate vegetarians' claims that there's a duty to avoid meat 
     
     
     
    ● Develops a novel theory of ethical activism with potential applications to a wide range of other issues
