  The Dawn of Mind - How Matter...

  Although consciousness is at the very center of who we are, its exact nature continues to confound modern science. From where does consciousness originate? At our core, are we material bodies or immaterial conscious minds? Many assume that consciousness is a product of our complex brains, a product of evolution—and yet, there is no evolutionary reason that a mechanical function of the brain should allow us to enjoy the beauty of a sunrise or become intoxicated with the smell of rain on dry earth. If consciousness is not the product of sophisticated human brains, might the nonhuman living world be conscious? If so, where does that place us in relation to the rest of life on Earth—and what does this imply about our domination and plundering of the natural world for resources? Dr. James Cooke is no stranger to intricate and existential questions such as these, and he confronts them head-on in his compelling, inventive, revolutionary new book, The Dawn of Mind: How Matter Became Conscious and Alive. Weaving together cutting-edge science and the contemplative insights that arise from mystical experience, as occurs with meditation and the emerging therapeutic paradigm of psychedelic medicine, Cooke radically redraws our understanding of what it truly means to be who we are.

  "Milo, the Magic Mudskipper" is an enchanting nursery rhyme that follows six-year-old siblings Charlie and Daphne on a magical underwater adventure. While crabbing at Mudeford Quay in Dorset, England, the children discover Milo, a talking mudskipper from Australia who has become lost after accidentally boarding a ship that carried him far from his mangrove home. 
  Milo possesses magical abilities that allow him to share his amphibious powers with the children, enabling them to breathe underwater and embark on a quest to Neptune's palace in the ocean depths. Their mission: to obtain a magical compass that will guide Milo safely home across the vast seas. 
  The trio faces three challenging trials in Neptune's underwater kingdom: the Riddle Deep, the Trial of Courage, and the Test of Heart. Through these adventures, they learn valuable lessons about friendship, bravery, and selflessness. When faced with choosing between helping Milo or a lost baby whale, they discover that true friendship means putting others' needs first. 
  Neptune, impressed by their noble hearts, rewards them with multiple magical compasses, ensuring both Milo and the whale can find their way home. The story concludes with Milo's joyful return to Australia and the establishment of a lasting friendship maintained through magical shells that allow the friends to communicate across the oceans. 
  Written in traditional nursery rhyme style with consistent AABB rhyme schemes, repetitive phrases, and musical rhythm, the tale emphasizes themes of friendship, courage, environmental awareness, and the magic that exists when we help others in need. 
  The opening music, is a lovely clear female vocal expressing the character of this nursery rhyme runs to nearly four minutes. 
  The appropriate background flutey music gives a happy atmosphere to the narration, and the closing music is an instrumental version of the same type of genre and instruments as the opening music and runs to about three minutes.
