Beschreibung

Farming Calendars explores how farmers worldwide have historically used seasonal, lunar, and climate-based calendars to optimize agricultural productivity. These calendars, far from being relics of the past, represent a sophisticated blend of astronomical observation, climate prediction, and practical agricultural experience accumulated over generations. For instance, knowledge of solstices and equinoxes, combined with rainfall patterns, informs decisions about planting, irrigation, and pest control. Understanding these traditional ecological knowledge systems is increasingly vital for sustainable agriculture and climate change adaptation. 

 
The book examines diverse agricultural settings, demonstrating how different cultures interpret and apply farming calendars. It analyzes the scientific basis of these calendars, comparing traditional knowledge with modern meteorological and astronomical data, showing the enduring relevance of these practices.

 
Progressing from fundamental concepts to specific regional examples, Farming Calendars culminates in exploring practical applications for contemporary agriculture, highlighting how integrating traditional calendar knowledge with modern science can lead to more resilient and productive farming systems, ultimately improving crop yields and promoting sustainable farming.

    Have you ever wondered if there are seasons on the moon or if space tourism will ever become commonplace? So has Dr. Maggie Aderin-Pocock. In fact, she earned her nickname “Lunatic” because of her deep fascination for all things lunar. In her lucidly written, comprehensive guide to the moon, Aderin-Pocock takes listeners on a journey to our closest celestial neighbor, exploring folklore, facts, and future plans. 
      
    She begins with the basics, unpacking everything from the moon’s topography and composition to its formation and orbit around the Earth. She travels back in time to track humanity’s relationship with the moon—beliefs held by ancient civilizations, the technology that allowed for the first moon landing, a brief history of moongazing, and how the moon has influenced culture throughout the years—and then to the future, analyzing the pros and cons of continued space travel and exploration. The Book of the Moon will be published for the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. 
      
    Includes an interview with the author.

    Is that medicine really good for you, or do you just believe it is? The placebo effect is a controversial topic, insomuch that people falsely accuse certain medicinal oils, pills, or supplements as being useless. But at the same time, there really are some drugs that don’t do anything by themselves, yet have the desired effect because of what people trust they do. So what is the truth? How does the placebo effect work? Does it even work? 
    It is not as simple as answering “yes” or “no”, but as we take a closer look at the concept, more light will be shed on the matter, and the benefits, the dangers, and the health effects of it will become clear as glass. Questions, such as the one above and many others, will be answered. You will hear facts and questions like:The very definition of placebos and how to recognize them as what they areOutrageous numbers about how the medicinal industry has scammed millions of customers into buying their junkWhether the placebo effect is actually a good thing and whether or not your beliefs can heal youHow the placebo effect relates to weight loss, wrinkle creams, blood pressure, and hypnosis When to be suspicious of placebos and when they are better than actual drugsSneaky ways in which people sell precious metals and how it relates to the placebo effectEverything else you need to know about the placebo effect 
    Nobody likes to be fooled, and nobody wants to believe something that isn’t true. So if you want to outsmart yourself, the medical industry, and some of those overpriced doctors who try to make a living from people’s trusts and fears, you better do yourself a favor and learn everything about the placebo effect to save yourself time, money, and some donkey ears.

    Create a Gospel-Centered Rule of Life
    Habits form us more than we form them. The modern world is a machine of invisible habits, forming us into anxious, busy people. We yearn for the freedom of the gospel but remain shackled by our screens and exhausted by our routines. How can we truly break free, find rest, and form a life that aligns our habits with our foundational beliefs?
    According to Justin Earley, the answer is a rule of life. The Common Rule's four daily and four weekly habits transform frazzled days into lives of love for God and neighbor.
    In The Common Rule, you'll find
    
    - doable, life-giving practices to find freedom and rest for your soul,
    - expanded content including study guide questions for individual reflection and group discussion, and
    - practical, accessible resources for building habits that bring life.
    Take the first step toward a life of intentionality and discover how simple, meaningful habits can transform your everyday moments into a rhythm of peace and purpose.
    "Full of glimpses of the life we were made for, and the simple choices that can take us in that direction. The habits described here, and the wisdom they embody, are the path toward sanity in a frenetic world." – Andy Crouch, author of The Tech-Wise Family and Culture Making
    "With his precise plan, Earley instructs Christians on how to create an environment for a healthy spiritual life." – Publishers Weekly Review, February 2023

    This Is What Inequality Looks Like

    What is poverty? What is inequality? How are they connected? How are they reproduced? How might they be overcome? Why should we try?The way we frame our questions shapes the way we see solutions. This book does what appears to be a no-brainer task, but one that is missing and important: it asks readers to pose questions in different ways, to shift the vantage point from which they view 'common sense,' and in so doing, to see themselves as part of problems and potential solutions. This is a book about how seeing poverty entails confronting inequality. It is about how acknowledging poverty and inequality leads to uncomfortable revelations about our society and ourselves. And it is about how once we see, we cannot, must not, unsee.This New Edition of This Is What Inequality Looks Like by Teo You Yenn features a new Afterword by the author, and a Foreword by Kwok Kian Woon, Professor of Sociology at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.© 2018 by Teo You Yenn. Published in paper format in Singapore by Ethos Books, recorded by Storyside 2019.
