Sinopsis

In "Nature Near London," Richard Jefferies presents a poignant exploration of the natural world, illuminating the intricate relationship between urban life and the surrounding countryside. This work is characterized by its lyrical prose and keen observational style, reflecting the Victorian preoccupation with nature amidst the encroaching industrialization of the time. Jefferies deftly portrays the beauty and complexity of the English landscape, offering readers a contemplative journey through the flora and fauna that thrive on the periphery of the metropolis. His vivid descriptions serve not only to evoke a sense of place but also to provoke reflections on humanity's connection to the natural world. Richard Jefferies, a noted English nature writer, spent his early life in the rural landscapes of Wiltshire, which deeply influenced his literary vision. His works are often infused with a sense of urgency about the preservation of nature in the face of modernization. Living in an era where urban expansion threatened the tranquility of the countryside, Jefferies was compelled to articulate the beauty of the natural world and advocate for its appreciation, making his observations all the more poignant. "Nature Near London" stands as a timeless tribute to the undying bond between humankind and nature. Readers seeking solace in lyrical observations or insight into the Victorian ethos regarding the environment will find this work particularly resonant. Jefferies' meditative prose invites readers to slow down and reconnect with the beauty that exists just beyond the urban sprawl, making it a profound addition to both nature writing and Victorian literature.

When the City Stopped - Stories...

Robert W. Snyder

In When the City Stopped, Robert Snyder tells the story of COVID-19 in the words of ordinary New Yorkers, illuminating the fear and uncertainty of life in the early weeks and months, as well as the solidarity that sustained the city. New Yorkers were "alone together," separated by the protective measures of social distancing and the fundamental inequalities of life and work in New York City. Through their personal accounts, we see that while many worked from home, others knowingly exposed themselves to the dangers of the pandemic as they drove buses, ran subways, answered 911 calls, tended to the sick, and made and delivered meals. 
 
 
 
Snyder builds bridges of knowledge and empathy between those who bore dangerous burdens and those who lived in relative safety. The story is told through the words of health care workers, grocery clerks, transit workers, and community activists who recount their experiences in poems, first-person narratives, and interviews. When the City Stopped preserves for future generations what it was like to be in New York when it was at the center of the pandemic.

Obscurantism in power When...

Brice Perrier

Over the last ten years or so, it has become commonplace to hear talk of an obscurantist threat linked to a rise in irrationality, manifested mainly by a mistrust of vaccination and conventional medicine. But obscurantism can also be found where we pride ourselves on fighting it. In this case, it is no longer the work of marginal or anti-establishment groups, but of a dominant way of thinking that presents itself as that of science and rationality. 
The aim of this book is to lift the veil on this obscurantism in power. Through numerous examples, from impeded research into unexplained phenomena such as near-death experiences, to the vast field of medicine where the pharmaceutical industry has cornered the market on proving the usefulness of a treatment, Brice Perrier reveals how reason is transformed into dogmatism and hinders the advancement of knowledge. 
The aim of the book is not to say what is true or false, nor to settle scientific controversies, but to understand why these debates, which have always been legitimate and even necessary in science, may simply no longer be allowed.

Shockwave

Michael Mathiesen

This book answers the question:  “Are we the only civilization in the universe who believes there is a God?” 
In a few years, it could be the end of human beings on Earth. The warning signs are all around us today, but few of us have realized how our lives will be changing as we come closer and closer to the END! Some believe that God will save us.  Others have given up hope. 
In Shockwave, time waves as conceived by the author and previously dismissed as theoretical abstraction— are starting to prove themselves by hitting the planet with more and more frequency and force.  Most readers will be amazed at the near future technology that is invented in this book by this author that may actually be accomplished in the coming years.  It's a great time to be alive, but it may be even greater in the not-so-far-off future. 
With each shockwave of Time, events are altered and realities changed.  One reality brings the hero closer to the life he always dreamed about and the other reality brings him further away.  
The ending is the biggest shock wave of all time because it puts humanity at the center of the universe and you don't want to miss it.
