Sinopse

In "The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature," Thomas Henry Huxley embarks on a profound exploration of the relationship between scientific inquiry and biblical texts. Written in the late 19th century, amidst the tumult of the Darwinian revolution, Huxley employs a rigorous analytical style that blends philosophy, theology, and natural science to scrutinize the compatibility of evolutionary theory with traditional religious narratives. By dissecting the interpretations of Genesis, Huxley articulates a compelling argument for the reassessment of literalism in scripture, positioning science as a vital interpreter of the natural world, thus encouraging an evolution of thought in both scientific and theological circles. As a prominent biologist and staunch advocate of Darwinism, Huxley's background—marked by fierce debates with both religious and scientific communities—imbues this work with a sense of urgency and necessity. His pioneering contributions to the field of biology and his role as a public intellectual reflect a desire to bridge the chasm between faith and science. This book is not just an academic treatise; it is a clarion call for a reformed understanding of humanity's place in nature, informed by both scripture and empirical evidence. I highly recommend "The Interpreters of Genesis and the Interpreters of Nature" to anyone grappling with the intersection of science and religion. Huxley's meticulous scholarship and eloquent reasoning provide invaluable insights for contemporary discussions on faith in an age of reason, making it a must-read for students of theology, philosophy, and natural sciences alike.

A poignant meditation on mortality from a beloved Canadian poet
		 
A writer friend once pointed out that whenever Stuart Ross got close to something heavy and “real” in a poem, a hamburger would inevitably appear for comic relief. In this hybrid essay/memoir/poetic meditation, Ross shoves aside the heaping plate of burgers to wrestle with what it means to grieve the people one loves and what it means to go on living in the face of an enormous accumulation of loss. Written during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, shortly after the sudden death of his brother left him the last living member of his family and as a catastrophic diagnosis meant anticipating the death of his closest friend, this meditation on mortality — a kind of literary shiva — is Ross’s most personal book to date. More than a catalogue of losses, The Book of Grief and Hamburgers is a moving act of resistance against self-annihilation and a desperate attempt to embrace all that was good in his relationships with those most dear to him.

Recovering

Richie Sadlier, Dion Fanning

When a career-ending injury saw former Ireland and Millwall striker Richie Sadlier retire from football at age 24, his life spiralled out of control.
Without structure or a sense of purpose, and fuelled by a dependency on alcohol, he spent years running from the dark memories and feelings that had haunted him since childhood. Until one day he hit rock bottom and decided to confront his demons.
Recovering written with Dion Fanning is about a life shaped by efforts to escape, and how it is possible to rebuild that life, piece by piece, with the right help.
Inspiring and ground-breaking, it is an important reflection on the need to move away from perceptions of shame in our discussions about mental health, sex, relationships and addiction.

Hope . . . From the Heart of Horses explores and celebrates the relationship and bond possible between horses and humans. Each chapter offers a life lesson about trusting one's instincts, honestly addressing emotions, achieving clarity in communications, and releasing negative thoughts. 
 
 
 
Because survival depends on being highly tuned to the thoughts and feelings of others, horses sense human intentions rather than what a person offers in facial expressions, which creates a remarkable effect on the relationship between these two distinctly different species. 
 
 
 
Among the moving stories the author relates are a horse named Hope who teaches the difference between hope and faith; an abused horse's background bringing up old memories and helping the author to move on; a young Olympic equestrienne hopeful who discovers and reaffirms her self-esteem; and a corporate training session in which one participant achieves great success merely by being honest about her fears. 
 
 
 
As you see how these people grow deeper into themselves as they learn the horse's way, you, too, will be inspired to explore and apply the deep and everlasting connection and communication between horses and humans.
