Summary

In "The Course of Creation," John Anderson delves into the intricate interplay between science and spirituality, exploring how these two realms shape our understanding of existence. Employing a lyrical and evocative prose style, Anderson weaves philosophical discourse with scientific inquiry, offering rich metaphors that illuminate the complexities of the universe. Set against the backdrop of contemporary debates in both cosmology and metaphysics, the book challenges readers to reconsider their perceptions of creation, existence, and the cosmos. John Anderson, a philosopher and scientist, has spent decades at the intersection of these fields, navigating the profound questions that arise from both empirical research and existential contemplation. His background in physics informs the scientific principles explored in this work, while his philosophical training encourages a deep examination of metaphysical implications. Anderson's own spiritual journey, marked by encounters with various worldviews, underscores the urgency and relevance of his exploration in "The Course of Creation." This book is a thought-provoking read for anyone interested in the deeper questions of life, bridging the gap between rational understanding and spiritual reflection. Readers will find Anderson's insights enriching, and the journey through his narrative promises to expand not only their intellectual horizons but also their sense of wonder.

    Good Friends - Bonds That Change...

    From the co-author of Tell Me Who You Are and a TED speaker, a book that reveals the importance of friendship as a tool of social justice. Friendship is good for your health. Studies show that loneliness is as deadly as smoking fifteen cigarettes a day. Still, we are not taught how to be good friends to one another. We cancel plans, lose touch, blame technology, and neglect our non-romantic loved ones. In Good Friends, author Priya Vulchi explores friendships across history, continents, and identities to show how friendship can open up new levels of joy and community in your life. What is the meaning of friendship, these miraculous bonds with once-strangers? How do you begin friendships? End them? Keep them vibrant? For answers, Vulchi weaves through Western classical thinkers like Plato, Aristotle, and Cicero, and uncovers the private moments between good friends like James Baldwin, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Yuri Kochiyama, Toni Morrison, and June Jordan. Friendship, she shows, has ripple effects beyond just any two friends; it awakens solidarity and changes in the world.  Through her inspiring and impassioned prose, Vulchi entirely reimagines our platonic ties, revealing that friendship, in the right hands, is a brilliant act of love and resistance. Intimate and engaging, Good Friends offers a resounding cry that friendship is not only vital for our own individual well-being, but for humanity itself. It invites you to be inspired not just by what people do but how people love. It invites you to look at your friends differently and enter a dazzlingly fresh philosophy of human connection.

    The Open Conspiracy - Blueprints...

    This version of The Open Conspiracy: Blue Prints for a World Revolution was published in 1928. Apparently Wells knew this would be a temporary version and would stop printing after a year or so. It was rewritten a couple of times between then and 1933 under various other subtitles. 
The book is, in Wells' words, a "scheme to thrust forward and establish a human control over the destinies of life and liberate it from its present dangers, uncertainties and miseries. It proposes that largely as the result of scientific progress, a common vision of a world 'politically, socially and economically unified' is emerging among educated and influential people, and that this can be the basis of 'a world revolution aiming at universal peace, welfare and happy activity' that can result in the establishment of a 'world commonwealth'."

    Isolated from the world, the village of Bormont has grown twisted. It’s wallowed in filth for centuries. 
My plane crashed in the forest. I was rescued by the local townsfolk. It was the ultimate blessing. 
Or so I thought. 
I broke their laws. They put me in a chastity cage and paraded me through the town square. It triggered something hidden deep inside me. 
The day they locked me into chastity was the day I broke. 
The men say I’m doing a good job now. I’m learning quickly and absorbing their lessons. 
I’m a good student…I’m a good student…I’m a good student…

    The rural roads that led to our planet-changing global economy ran through the American South. That region's impact on the interconnected histories of business and ecological change is narrated here by acclaimed scholar Bart Elmore, who uses the histories of five southern firms—Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, Walmart, FedEx, and Bank of America—to investigate the environmental impact of our have-it-now, fly-by-night, buy-on-credit economy. Elmore explores the historical, economic, and ecological conditions that gave rise to these five trailblazing corporations. He then considers what each has become: an essential presence in the daily workings of the global economy and an unmistakable contributor to the reshaping of the world's ecosystems. Even as businesses invest in sustainability initiatives and respond to new calls for corporate responsibility, Elmore shows the limits of their efforts to "green" their operations and offers insights on how governments and activists can push corporations to do better. 
 
 
 
Our lives are built around businesses that connect far-flung rural places to urban centers and global destinations. This "country capitalism" that proved successful in the US South has made it possible to satisfy our demands at the click of a button, but each click comes with hidden environmental costs.
