Summary

Cave Dwelling Today explores the surprising persistence of living in natural caves in the modern world, moving beyond stereotypical views to examine the motivations and adaptations of contemporary cave dwellers. This book sheds light on cave dwelling not as a primitive relic, but as a conscious choice driven by diverse factors like seeking affordable housing, pursuing spiritual retreats, or preserving cultural heritage. The book unveils how these communities manage resources and maintain social structures, challenging conventional ideas of progress and successful lifestyles.

 
The book uniquely combines anthropology, earth sciences, and geography to understand this phenomenon. It investigates the cultural and economic dimensions, showing how cave dwellers adapt to their environment through sustainable practices. For instance, the book analyzes how geological formations influence microclimates within caves, impacting resource availability. By presenting case studies from around the world, Cave Dwelling Today demonstrates the resilience and adaptability of cave communities.

 
The book progresses from defining contemporary cave habitation to examining its social, cultural, and economic aspects, culminating in a discussion of its implications for sustainable development and cultural preservation. This interdisciplinary approach makes the book valuable for policymakers, researchers, and anyone interested in alternative lifestyles, offering insights into sustainable living and community development.

  • Dome of the Rock and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre The: The History of Medieval Jerusalem’s Most Famous Sites - cover

    Dome of the Rock and the Church...

    The most famous church in Jerusalem for nearly 2,000 years, the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, often called the Church of the Resurrection, was built in the era of St. Constantine, and the church as a structure has no history separable from the city of Jerusalem and its environs. It is venerated as being on the site where Jesus was crucified and buried, and naturally, making it a crucial pilgrimage site for Christians, and it is now the home of the Greek Orthodox Jerusalem Patriarchate. Moreover, it was the site of many important councils, some of which altered Christian history forever. In short, the Sepulchre was and is synonymous with Jerusalem, and it was essentially the nodal center of the city.  
    Naturally, the Church has had a turbulent history just as Jerusalem has. The evidence that Christ's tomb was at that location was backed by the apostolic tradition and basic common sense. The local population had venerated this site since apostolic times, but so much had been destroyed in the ensuing centuries that records which might have been consulted were likely long lost already.  
    	Among the world’s most recognizable man-made structures, the Dome of the Rock – known in Arabic as the Qubbat as-Sakara – is also one of its most mysterious. Although much of the Dome’s construction, reconstruction, and later additions are well-known from historical texts and archeological work, what it represents, why it was built where it was, and even its use remain the subject of scholarly controversy. Known for its immense size and beauty, and also for being located in the middle of Jerusalem, one of the world’s holiest cities, the Dome of the Rock has been the focus of political leaders who wished to legitimize their rule, religious warriors who believed that it empowered their weapons, and pilgrims who thought it was a site of salvation and enlightenment.

    A hopeful memoir about adapting when life doesn't go to plan, redefining family, and creating your own path. 
     
     
     
    One afternoon, Emma Nadler gets a call from her daughter's doctor that changes her life forever. Faced with the realities of raising a child with a rare genetic condition, Nadler must confront her preconceptions of motherhood and her perfectionistic beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Nadler—who also happens to be a psychotherapist—offers a rare window into the unconventional ways she and her family adapt to their improbable path. Every relationship in her life—with herself, her husband, children, friends, and even clients—is reimagined as she navigates the heartbreak and hilarity of her daily life. 
     
     
     
    As she and her husband join the 53 million caregivers in the US, Nadler wrestles to belong in a society that devalues both caregivers and people with disabilities. She challenges the scripts that mothers should be martyrs, or that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love. Nadler illustrates the complexity, grief, and joy of living an unexpected life, all with the wisdom of a therapist, the heart of a loving parent, and the ingenuity of a queer woman who refuses to be shackled by cultural expectations.
