  Inviting new translations of classical Buddhist texts about why the self is an illusion—and why giving it up can free us from suffering 
   
   
   
  From self-realization and self-promotion to self-help and the selfie, the modern world encourages us to be self-obsessed. We are even told that finding ourselves is the key to happiness. Better to lose yourself! More than 2,500 years ago, the Buddha argued that the self is an illusion—and that our belief in it is the cause of most, if not all, of our suffering. How to Lose Yourself presents lively, accessible, and expert new translations of ancient Buddhist writings about the central, unique, and powerful Buddhist teaching of "no-self." 
   
   
   
  Drawn from three important Buddhist traditions, these essential Indian, Tibetan, and Chinese writings provide a rich sampling of the ways Buddhist philosophers have understood the idea that we are selfless persons—and why this insight is so therapeutic. When we let go of the self, we are awakened to the presence of all things as they truly are, and we let go of the anxiety, fear, greed, and hatred that are the source of all suffering.

  The Woods Without Gods

  The Woods Without Gods is a poetic and philosophical meditation on the disappearance of the sacred from the modern world. Where once every forest was a temple and every shadow whispered divinity, now there is only silence — the echo of meaning lost to measurement. This book journeys through that silence, tracing how humanity’s hunger for mastery erased mystery, and how, in our pursuit of progress, we forgot how to listen. 
   Neither nostalgic nor cynical, The Woods Without Gods reveals what remains after faith: attention. It argues that awe can survive without theology, that reverence can exist without ritual. Through the lens of ecology, memory, and philosophy, it mourns the world’s disenchantment while celebrating the possibility of rediscovering holiness through perception itself. 
   This is not a lament for lost gods — it’s a call to presence. The sacred is not gone; it has only gone quiet, waiting in the moss, in the fog, in the patience of trees.

  Feeding a Divided America -...

  In Feeding a Divided America, third-generation Montana rancher and international agriculture development specialist Gilles Stockton explores the causes of what he refers to as the "rural-urban divide" and how this widening chasm between rural America and urban centers threatens our democracy. Indeed, it determines the structure of our society, including the physical and political landscapes in which we live. Stockton shows how big banks, international food conglomerates, urban expectations, and US farm policy have all furthered the demise of small towns across America. 
   
   
   
  These essays provide a clear portrait of national food issues surrounding market competition, US trade policy, wildlife controversies, climate change, supply-chain disruptions, and US farm policy, topics that transcend all geopolitical boundaries. Stockton stands firm with American farmers and ranchers, offering potential remedies to these issues in the face of concerns over livelihood, the future of American food systems, and the future of our planet. Stockton's essays are timely, and they challenge American urbanites and rural folk alike to find ways for all of us to coexist in a changing environment. Whether we eat may depend on it.
