  Chasing the Intact Mind - How...

  The concept of the intact mind, first described in a 2006 memoir, refers to the idea that inside every autistic child is an intelligent, typical child waiting to be liberated by the right diet, the right treatment intervention, the right combination of supports and accommodations. The sentiment itself is not new. Though the idea gives hope to parents devastated by a child's diagnosis, Amy Lutz argues that it has also contributed to widespread dismantling of services badly needed by severely disabled children and their families. 
   
   
   
  In Chasing the Intact Mind, Lutz traces the history of the intact mind concept, explaining how it influences current policy and practice affecting those with autism. Lutz provides a historical analysis of the intact mind narrative and describes how the concept—originally unique to autism—has come to inform current debates at the heart of intellectual and developmental disability practice and policy in the United States. Lutz argues that focusing on the intact mind and marginalizing those with severe disability reproduces historic patterns of discrimination that yoked human worth to intelligence, and that it is only by making space for the impaired mind that we will be able to resolve these ongoing clashes—as well as even larger questions of personhood, dependency, and care.

  Restless Devices - Recovering...

  We're being formed by our devices. Today's digital technologies are designed to captivate our attention and encroach on our boundaries, shaping how we relate to time and space, to ourselves and others, even to God. While we enjoy the benefits of digital tech, many of us feel troubled with its power and exhausted by its demands for permanent connectivity. Yet even as we grow disenchanted, attempting to resist the digital "powers that be" might seem like a losing battle. 
   
   
   
  Sociologist Felicia Wu Song has spent years considering the personal and collective dynamics of living in digital ecosystems. In this book she combines psychological, neurological, and sociological insights with theological reflection to explore two major questions: What kind of people are we becoming with personal technologies in hand? and who do we really want to be? 
   
   
   
  Song unpacks the soft tyranny of the digital age, including the values embedded in our apps and the economic systems that drive our habits and their subtle yet pervasive effects. She then explores pathways of meaningful resistance that can be found in Christian tradition, especially counter-narratives about human worth, embodiment, relationality, and time. Considering digital practices through the lens of "liturgy" and formation, she offers practical experiments for individual and communal change.

  Pollution - The Environmental...

  Marcus Kline

  Pollution is a pervasive and urgent global issue that affects every corner of the planet, from the air we breathe to the water we drink and the land we depend on for survival. Over the past century, the rapid pace of industrialization, urbanization, and population growth has contributed significantly to environmental degradation. What was once seen as the price of progress has now become a formidable challenge that threatens the health of humans, animals, and ecosystems alike.  
    
  The scope of pollution is vast and multifaceted. It encompasses a wide range of pollutants, including chemicals, plastics, heavy metals, and greenhouse gases, which infiltrate the air, water, and soil. While air pollution from vehicle emissions and industrial activities poses immediate health risks, water pollution contaminates vital freshwater resources, threatening marine ecosystems and human livelihoods. Land pollution, driven by improper waste disposal and deforestation, further exacerbates the crisis by depleting soil fertility and destroying habitats. Together, these forms of pollution create a complex web of environmental and health hazards that demand immediate attention.  
    
  Human health is intricately tied to the environment, making pollution a direct and indirect cause of numerous diseases and conditions. Respiratory ailments, cardiovascular issues, and neurological disorders are increasingly linked to exposure to polluted air and toxic chemicals. Vulnerable populations, such as children and low-income communities, bear a disproportionate burden of these impacts, amplifying social inequalities. Beyond physical health, the psychological toll of living in a degraded environment adds another layer of complexity to the crisis.
