    Certamen Philosophicum: Philosophical Combat for Divine and Natural Truth by Isaac Orobio de Castro, with an introduction by Seymour Feldman, a foreword by Jean-Pierre Rothschild, and a prologue and translation by Walter Hilliger. Narration is provided by Dan Hilliger, A.A.C., and it is published by Le Cercle Hilliger. 
    This work delves into the correspondence between Isaac Orobio de Castro and Jan Bredenburg, highlighting the superiority of classical philosophy over the flawed reasoning influenced by Spinoza's ideas. Through meticulous logical analysis, Orobio exposes the inherent contradictions in modern philosophical materialism. He argues that Spinoza and his contemporaries disguise a new pantheistic atheism that replaces God with "Nature," relying on sophisms that ignore the common foundations of logic, grammar, metaphysics, and ontology. 
    Orobio rejects the fragmentation of truth between science and religion, defending the convergence of scientific and religious thought through simultaneous and logical truths. This allows for a rational understanding of the existence of a necessary being, creation from infinite possibilities, and the limitations of finite agents. 
    "Certamen Philosophicum" is an essential reference for those exploring the interaction between reason, faith, and existence. It is a crucial read for philosophers, theologians, and anyone interested in the classical foundations of faith in relation to reason. This translation aims to make Orobio's work accessible to contemporary readers and illuminate the connections between his classical context and modern existential questions. 
    Isaac Orobio de Castro (1617-1687) is recognized as a prominent anti-modernist in 17th-century philosophy.

    “First-class . . . more than the biography of a great aviator and military leader. It also is a detailed and lively history of naval aviation.” —The New York Times Air Adm. Marc Mitscher is a legend in military circles for developing an entirely new concept of war at sea. His skills as both a carrier tactician and genius for leading men rank him with the best World War II combat commanders. However, because Mitscher shunned publicity and destroyed his private papers shortly before his death in 1947, his accomplishments are not widely known. In this outstanding biography, Theodore Taylor traces the aviator’s brilliant career from its beginnings and makes clear the major role played by the admiral in developing the Navy’s air program, providing a lively and detailed history of the progress of naval aviation. “The likable personality and day by day achievements of Mitscher shine through to lift this above the run of the mill military biography.” —Kirkus Reviews

    This program is read by the author.In the literary tradition of Carmen Maria Machado’s In the Dream House, Maxine Hong Kingston’s The Woman Warrior, and Jesmyn Ward’s Men We Reaped, this debut memoir confronts both the challenges and joys of growing up Black and making your own truth.Growing up as a Black girl in America, Deborah Mouton felt alienated from the stories she learned in class. She yearned for stories she felt connected to—true ones of course—but also fables and mythologies that could help explain both the world and her place in it. What she encountered was almost always written by white writers who prospered in a time when human beings were treated as chattel, such as the Greek and Roman myths, which felt as dusty and foreign as ancient ruins. When she sought myths written by Black authors, they were rooted too far in the past, a continent away.Mouton writes, “The phrases of my mother and grandmother began to seem less colloquial and more tied to stories that had been lost along the way. . . . Mythmaking isn’t a lie. It is our moment to take the privilege of our own creativity to fill in the gaps that colonization has stolen from us. It is us choosing to write the tales that our children pull strength from. It is hijacking history for the ignorance in its closets. This, a truth that must start with the women.”Mouton’s memoir Black Chameleon is a song of praise and an elegy for Black womanhood. With a poet’s gift for lyricism and poignancy, Mouton reflects on her childhood as the daughter of a preacher and a harsh but loving mother, living in the world as a Black woman whose love is all too often coupled with danger, and finally learning to be a mother to another Black girl in America. Of the moment yet timeless, playful but incendiary, Mouton has staked out new territory in the memoir form.A Macmillan Audio production from Henry Holt & Company.
