Book Synopsis Rocks of Ages by : Stephen Jay Gould
Download or read book Rocks of Ages written by Stephen Jay Gould and published by Ballantine Books. This book was released on 2011-07-20 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "People of good will wish to see science and religion at peace. . . . I do not see how science and religion could be unified, or even synthesized, under any common scheme of explanation or analysis; but I also do not understand why the two enterprises should experience any conflict." So states internationally renowned evolutionist and bestselling author Stephen Jay Gould in the simple yet profound thesis of his brilliant new book. Writing with bracing intelligence and elegant clarity, Gould sheds new light on a dilemma that has plagued thinking people since the Renaissance. Instead of choosing between science and religion, Gould asks, why not opt for a golden mean that accords dignity and distinction to each realm? At the heart of Gould's penetrating argument is a lucid, contemporary principle he calls NOMA (for nonoverlapping magisteria)--a "blessedly simple and entirely conventional resolution" that allows science and religion to coexist peacefully in a position of respectful noninterference. Science defines the natural world; religion, our moral world, in recognition of their separate spheres of influence. In elaborating and exploring this thought-provoking concept, Gould delves into the history of science, sketching affecting portraits of scientists and moral leaders wrestling with matters of faith and reason. Stories of seminal figures such as Galileo, Darwin, and Thomas Henry Huxley make vivid his argument that individuals and cultures must cultivate both a life of the spirit and a life of rational inquiry in order to experience the fullness of being human. In his bestselling books Wonderful Life, The Mismeasure of Man, and Questioning the Millennium, Gould has written on the abundance of marvels in human history and the natural world. In Rocks of Ages, Gould's passionate humanism, ethical discernment, and erudition are fused to create a dazzling gem of contemporary cultural philosophy. As the world's preeminent Darwinian theorist writes, "I believe, with all my heart, in a respectful, even loving concordat between . . . science and religion."
Book Synopsis The Judge of Ages by : John C. Wright
Download or read book The Judge of Ages written by John C. Wright and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2014-02-11 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year is 10,515 AD. The Hyades Armada, traveling at near lightspeed, will reach Earth in just four centuries to assess humanity's value as slaves. For the last 8,000 years, two opposing factions have labored to meet the alien threat in very different ways. One of them is Ximen del Azarchel, immortal leader of the mutineers from the starship Hermetic and self-appointed Master of the World, who has allowed his followers to tamper continuously with the evolutionary destiny of Man, creating one bizarre race after another in an apparent search for a species the Hyades will find worthy of conquest. The other is Menelaus Montrose, the posthuman Judge of Ages, whose cryonic Tombs beneath the surface of Earth have preserved survivors from each epoch created by the Hermeticists. Montrose intends to thwart the alien invaders any way he can, and to remain alive long enough to be reunited with his bride Rania, who is on a seventy-millennia journey to confront the Hyades' masters, tens of thousands of light-years away. Now, with the countdown to the Hyades' arrival nearing its end, del Azarchel and Montrose square off for what is to be their final showdown for the fate of Earth, a battle of gunfire and cliometric calculus; powered armor and posthuman intelligence. Judge of Ages is the wildly inventive third volume in a series exploring future history and human evolution from John C. Wright.

Download or read book Book of Ages written by Jill Lepore and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist From one of our most accomplished and widely admired historians, a revelatory portrait of Benjamin Franklin’s youngest sister and a history of history itself. Like her brother, Jane Franklin was a passionate reader, a gifted writer, and an astonishingly shrewd political commentator. Unlike him, she was a mother of twelve. Benjamin Franklin, who wrote more letters to his sister than he wrote to anyone else, was the original American self-made man; his sister spent her life caring for her children. They left very different traces behind. Making use of an amazing cache of little-studied material, including documents, objects, and portraits only just discovered, Jill Lepore brings Jane Franklin to life in a way that illuminates not only this one woman but an entire world—a world usually lost to history. Lepore’s life of Jane Franklin, with its strikingly original vantage on her remarkable brother, is at once a wholly different account of the founding of the United States and one of the great untold stories of American history and letters: a life unknown.

Gurliche, the Lead Advisor to the Council of the Seven Lands and the World of Serst must now lead them on a journey that is sure to have an end . . . or does it?

Each piece could be another answer that is sought out. Are you willing to chance life? My answer is simple. I am.

Book Synopsis Encouraging Words from The Desire of Ages by : Ray Hartwell
Download or read book Encouraging Words from The Desire of Ages written by Ray Hartwell and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is power in encouragement. Studies have shown that words have a significant impact on the human brain. And the messages that we replay in our minds can either lift us up or drag us down. The same is true in our spiritual life. There are days when we feel like giving up. Days when nothing seems to go right. Days when we are unsure of what the future may bring. Days when we wonder if God knows our address, much less if He even remembers our name. It is at those times that we can use an encouraging word. Just one powerful thought, one powerful promise, one powerful assurance that can be the lift we need to help us carry on. Gathered here are more than 3 months of daily encouraging words drawn from the classic book on the life of Christ, entitled, The Desire of Ages, by Ellen G. White. In a unique and inspiring way, the short quote on each page will give you a thought to cherish all day. And as you ponder and turn over in your mind an encouraging word, the power of heaven will lead you to dwell on these promises and cultivate courage and positivity. We all need encouragement. And those around us with their perplexities and disappointments could use some as well. So, let these words lift you up and at the same time enable you to spread a little encouragement in your corner of the world.

Taught about God at an early age, Ben absorbed what he learned, and at 2 1/2 years of age, Ben was known as the little preacher. For the next three years, he lived up to his nickname as he would stand on a chair in a room full of people and "preach" and sing. Ben's Book of Miracles chronicles the life story of Ben Lippert and the miracles God performed in his life and the lives of his loved ones and friends over the course of his life. From restoration of health after extreme illnesses to protection from deadly accidents, Ben has experienced God's guidance firsthand. Ben has always endeavored to share the love of God with others, and this book is an outpouring of that desire.
