Notes on Feminism - Being a...

Lauren Windle

Is it possible to be a Christian and a feminist?
The hot topic of feminism has been well documented and debated in mainstream media and yet, as Christians we come to the conversation from a slightly different vantage point. For starters, we have the benefit of a personal relationship with our creator plus the ultimate handbook in the Bible to work out what is right and just when it comes to equality. So why do many Christians feel the Bible presents a barrier rather than a boost when it comes to championing equality between the sexes?
Lauren Windle draws upon her years as a journalist to weave together a wide range of voices on a subject that society has been wrestling with but, in the Church, few are brave enough to probe too deeply for fear of what they might find. This book isn't here to tell you what to think. The views it presents are intended to inform, not form, your opinion on key topics, including: defining feminism, the lessons we teach boys, female preachers, a woman's place in the household, beauty standards and #ChurchToo.
Notes On Feminism features contributions from several high-profile women:
- Writer and model Katie Piper on true beauty
- Olympian Abigail Irozuru on women's bodies
- Comedian Cassandra Maria on why people think women aren't funny
- Author Tiffany Bluhm on why people don't believe women
- Journalist Delphine Chui on why she isn't a feminist.
If feminist stirrings feel like a barrier to your faith, let Notes on Feminism help you unpick the confusion and ongoing debate, while keeping God at the centre.

Statistical Physics - The...

Mark Hedges

Statistical mechanics is the branch of physics that applies probability theory and statistics to describe the behavior of systems with a large number of particles. It provides a framework for understanding macroscopic phenomena in terms of the microscopic properties of individual particles. The central goal of statistical mechanics is to connect the microscopic world of atoms and molecules with the macroscopic world of thermodynamic variables like temperature, pressure, and volume. 
Historically, statistical mechanics emerged in the 19th century as scientists sought to explain the observed laws of thermodynamics, which describe the behavior of systems in equilibrium. Classical thermodynamics, while incredibly successful, was primarily phenomenological and lacked a fundamental microscopic understanding. This gap was filled by the development of statistical mechanics, largely attributed to the works of Ludwig Boltzmann, James Clerk Maxwell, and Josiah Willard Gibbs. 
At its core, statistical mechanics is based on the idea that the behavior of macroscopic systems can be understood by considering the collective behavior of their microscopic constituents. Instead of directly tracking every particle, which is practically impossible for large systems, statistical mechanics calculates the statistical properties of the system. These properties are derived from the laws of probability

Feeling Is The Secret

Neville Goddard

Feeling Is The Secret by Neville Goddard is a seminal work in the field of metaphysics and personal development, emphasizing the profound influence of emotions on the manifestation of desires. First published in 1944, this concise yet powerful book distills Goddard's teachings on the law of attraction and the creative power of the subconscious mind.Goddard's central thesis is that feelings are the key to unlocking the creative potential within each individual. He asserts that it is not enough to merely think about one's desires; one must also cultivate the corresponding feelings to bring these desires into reality. By aligning thoughts with emotions, individuals can effectively impress their desires upon the subconscious mind, which in turn shapes their external reality.The book is divided into four chapters:The Law and Its Operation:Goddard explains the fundamental principles of the law of attraction and the role of the subconscious mind in manifesting desires. He emphasizes that the conscious mind directs and the subconscious mind executes, making the feeling of the wish fulfilled essential for successful manifestation.Sleep:This chapter highlights the importance of the state of mind before sleep. Goddard advises using the moments before sleep to focus on positive emotions and desired outcomes, as this is when the subconscious mind is most receptive to suggestions.Prayer:Goddard redefines prayer as a feeling rather than a verbal request. He encourages readers to embody the feeling of their desires already being fulfilled during prayer, thereby creating a sense of certainty and inevitability.Spirit – Feeling:The final chapter delves deeper into the relationship between spirit and feeling. Goddard explores how emotions connect individuals to their spiritual essence and the universal creative power, reinforcing the idea that feeling is the secret to effective creation.Feeling Is The Secret is a timeless guide that empowers readers to harness their emotions and subconscious mind to create the life they desire.
