Synopsis

Food Traditions explores the deep connection between religion and food, revealing how faith shapes culinary practices worldwide. It examines how religious doctrines influence dietary laws, fasting, and the creation of ceremonial foods. For example, dietary rules in Judaism (Kashrut) and Islam (Halal) aren't mere restrictions but frameworks that foster communal identities. The book highlights the idea that food is more than sustenance; it's a powerful expression of faith and cultural identity.

 
The book progresses from defining key terms like "religious dietary law" and "ritual food" to exploring major world religions such as Christianity, Hinduism, and Buddhism. It analyzes their specific food customs, such as the Eucharist or Prasad, and their social and cultural implications.

 
By examining food practices across multiple religions, Food Traditions identifies common themes and unique variations, offering a broader understanding of how humans imbue food with spiritual meaning.

    Our pets are more than companions — they are quiet teachers, steadfast friends, and mirrors to our truest selves. 
    In Paws and Purpose, discover the extraordinary lessons hidden in ordinary moments with animals: the patience of an old dog waiting by the door, the forgiveness in a cat’s gentle purr, the courage of a rescue animal learning to trust again. Through heartfelt stories and thoughtful reflection, this book explores how our relationships with pets illuminate the deepest truths about love, loyalty, loss, and what it means to truly live in the moment. 
    Whether you share your life with a dog, cat, rabbit, or rescue of any kind, Paws and Purpose will remind you why every pawprint on your heart matters — and why saying goodbye never really means the end. 
    Tender, uplifting, and deeply human, this is a book for anyone who has ever been loved by an animal — and learned something beautiful in return.

  • Mother Creature Kin - What We Learn from Nature's Mothers in a Time of Unraveling - cover

    Mother Creature Kin - What We...

    What does it mean to be a mother in an era of climate catastrophe? And what can we learn from the plants and creatures who mother at the edges of their world's unraveling? Becoming a mother in this time means bringing life into a world that appears to be coming undone. Drawing upon ecology, mythology, and her own experiences as a mother, Chelsea Steinauer-Scudder confronts what it means to "mother": to do the good work of being in service to the living world. What if we could all mother the places we live and the beings with whom we share those places? And what if they also mother us? 
     
     
     
    Steinauer-Scudder writes of the flight and aural maps of barn owls, of nursing whales, of forests, of tidal marshes, of ancient single-celled organisms, and of newly planted gardens. The creatures inhabiting these stories teach us about centering, belonging, entanglement, edgework, homemaking, and how to imagine the future. Rooted in wonder while never shying away from loss, Mother, Creature, Kin reaches toward a language of inclusive care learned from creatures living at the brink. Despair and fear will not save the world any more than they will raise our children, and while we don't know what the future holds, we know it will need mothers. As the ground shifts beneath our feet, what if we apprenticed ourselves to the creaturely mothers with whom we share this beloved home?
