Summary

"Shape World" reveals the profound impact of shapes on our environment, from the microscopic to the monumental. Exploring geometric principles, the book examines how shapes interact to create complex structures in both nature and architecture.

 
Did you know that the efficiency of a honeycomb is a prime example of tessellation, or that symmetry is a fundamental principle in both the design of a butterfly's wings and the facade of a building? The book begins by introducing core geometric concepts and then progresses to explore how shapes combine, emphasizing tessellation and symmetry.

 
It concludes with real-world examples ranging from honeycombs and crystals to bridges and skyscrapers. The book uniquely presents parallel examples from the natural world and human-engineered structures, highlighting how similar geometric principles apply to both, and touches on their application to sustainable design.

 
By understanding shapes, readers gain insight into design, structural integrity, and artistic expression. This book provides a fresh perspective on how geometry informs the world around us.

Room for Good Things to Run Wild is the antidote to widespread Christian malaise. If you feel like life is happening to you, that your faith has been reduced to trite platitudes, and that no matter how many new things you try, you still end up with a dissatisfying Christian life, this book offers relief from the mediocrity of Christian living through the sacred and satisfying journey of becoming an every day saint. 
After spending too many days staring at the hamster cage of his uninspired life through the bottom of a glass of Scotch, Josh Nadeau knew there were only 2 ways left to go: further down or finally up. Disillusioned by his faith and disenchanted by the world around him, Josh chose up out of a desperation to discover the Jesus who had formed the saints of old.  
Steeped in literature and doctrine, art and raw daily life and accompanied by original illustrations and living liturgy this book will bring you on the journey back to an embodied theology that understands that we know, not just with our minds, but also with our bodies. From Canada, to England, to Ireland and Spain, Josh follows the Jesus Way, teaching you how to be just as honest about the pain of your life as the pleasure of your life.  
Rediscover the full and wild world that God has created for you in the way He has created you to experience it. Room for Good Things to Run Wild is a call into the Holy Ordinary; a new way to see that wakes the soul and satisfies the body.
