  The topic "The Edge of Knowledge: How Philosophy Shapes Science" explores the profound relationship between two fields that, while distinct, have deeply influenced each other throughout history. Philosophy lays the foundational questions about existence, reality, and knowledge, while science provides empirical methods and evidence to explore those questions. Together, they push the boundaries of human understanding, with philosophy offering the framework for inquiry and ethics, and science delivering the tools for discovery and innovation. This interplay drives the evolution of ideas, fostering groundbreaking insights into the mysteries of the universe and the principles guiding human progress.

  The Global in the Local - A...

  Fear swept Zhenjiang as British soldiers gathered outside the city walls in the summer of 1842. Already suspicious of foreigners, locals had also heard of the suffering the British inflicted two months earlier, in Zhapu. A wave of suicides and mercy killings ensued: rather than leave their families to the invaders, hundreds of women killed themselves and their children or died at the hands of male family members. British observers decried an "Asian culture" of ritual suicide. In reality, the event was sui generis—a tragic result of colliding local and global forces in nineteenth-century China. 
   
   
   
  Xin Zhang's groundbreaking history examines the intense negotiations between local societies and global changes that created modern China. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, world-historic political, economic, and technological developments transformed the textures of everyday life in places like Zhenjiang, a midsize river town in China's prosperous Lower Yangzi region. Drawing on rare primary sources, including handwritten diaries and other personal writings, Zhang offers a ground-level view of globalization in the city. 
   
   
   
  Far from passive recipients, the Chinese leveraged, resisted, and made change for themselves. The Global in the Local argues that globalization is inevitably refracted through local particularities.

  A Brief Manifesto on South American Identity 
  Have you ever wondered why seas around the world have names... but South America doesn't? 
  Amid forgotten maps, hushed histories and ignored identities, a disturbing question echoes through the waters of the South Atlantic. This is not just an e-book — it is an invitation to reflect on culture, memory and belonging. 
  This e-book is not intended to generalize in an attacking way, but rather to shed light on what has been hidden over the centuries — and which, in a certain way, continues to be silenced. 
  A deep analysis of the role of the sea in the formation of South American identity and integration. History, culture and politics connected by water.

  C S Lewis in America - Readings...

  "An invaluable assessment of Lewis's reception in the United States, offering important insights into both Lewis's significance and the distinctives of the American religious mind." – Alister McGrath, Oxford University
  Perhaps no other literary figure has transformed the American religious landscape in recent history as much as C. S. Lewis. Even before the international publication and incredible success of his fictional works such as The Chronicles of Narnia or apologetic works like Mere Christianity, Lewis was already being read "across the pond" in America. But who exactly was reading his work? And how was he received?
  With fresh research and shrewd analysis, this volume by noted historian Mark A. Noll considers the surprising reception of Lewis among Roman Catholic, mainline Protestant, and evangelical readers to see how early readings of the Oxford don shaped his later influence.
  Based on the annual lecture series hosted at Wheaton College's Marion E. Wade Center, volumes in the Hansen Series reflect on the imaginative work and lasting influence of seven British authors: Owen Barfield, G. K. Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, George MacDonald, Dorothy L. Sayers, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Charles Williams.
