With elegant simple language, Ms. Chute sets the tone for the entire book with her interpretation of the Act of the Apostles in everyday terms. She describes “the rest of the Letters” and their authors, showing how of the move from the shadow of truth into the light of full understanding...led by their desire in search of an encounter with the Divine. Chute unlock the mystery of the Book of Revelation by giving the reader a sense of John’s view of God and His relationship to man. John’s summation of the Book of Revelation can be said in nine words: God is Light. God is Love. Rather like a mathematician with a single idea, John’s writings are about the destruction of the darkness by the light. The Book of Revelation is a record of the destruction of darkness—now the search is ended and we may encounter the Divine. In plain language, John writes a story of mental warfare—light, which is full knowledge of God; and darkness, which is the ignorance of God. When the mental warfare is ended, we have peace. We abandon human endeavor and now know: The Kingdom of God is With You. A real and uplifting interpretation of the Book of Revelation.

The author of Being One presents “a persuasive argument for stopping the perennial search for enlightenment” in this unique guide to finding inner peace (New Age Journal).

As he puts it, “nothing is a surprisingly active place, but it is here that we discover who and what we are.”

Civil war looms in the Bobiverse in this brand-new, epic-length adventure by best seller Dennis E. Taylor. More than a hundred years ago, Bender set out for the stars and was never heard from again. There has been no trace of him despite numerous searches by his clone-mates. Now Bob is determined to organize an expedition to learn Bender's fate-whatever the cost. But nothing is ever simple in the Bobiverse. Bob's descendants are out to the 24th generation now, and replicative drift has produced individuals who can barely be considered Bobs anymore. Some of them oppose Bob's plan; others have plans of their own. The out-of-control moots are the least of the Bobiverse's problems. Undaunted, Bob and his allies follow Bender's trail. But what they discover out in deep space is so unexpected and so complex that it could either save the universe-or pose an existential threat the likes of which the Bobiverse has never faced.

The extraordinary life and ideas of one of the greatest—and most neglected—minds in history. Sir Thomas Browne (1605–1682) was an English writer, physician, and philosopher whose work has inspired everyone from Ralph Waldo Emerson to Jorge Luis Borges, Virginia Woolf to Stephen Jay Gould. In an intellectual adventure like Sarah Bakewell's book about Montaigne, How to Live, Hugh Aldersey-Williams sets off not just to tell the story of Browne's life but to champion his skeptical nature and inquiring mind. Mixing botany, etymology, medicine, and literary history, Aldersey-Williams journeys in his hero's footsteps to introduce us to witches, zealots, natural wonders, and fabulous creatures of Browne's time and ours. We meet Browne the master prose stylist, responsible for introducing hundreds of words into English, including electricity, hallucination, and suicide. Aldersey-Williams reveals how Browne’s preoccupations—how to disabuse the credulous of their foolish beliefs, what to make of order in nature, how to unite science and religion—are relevant today. In Search of Sir Thomas Browne is more than just a biography—it is a cabinet of wonders and an argument that Browne, standing at the very gates of modern science, remains an inquiring mind for our own time. As Stephen Greenblatt has written, Browne is "unnervingly one of our most adventurous contemporaries."
