For Professor Roger Hart, life truly began after he almost lost his -- in a horrific fall off the slopes of Mount Everest that he miraculously survived.

In this groundbreaking volume, he explores the participation of consciousness in the creation of reality, challenging the traditional scientific view of time, space, and objectivity -- and describing in detail his own metaphysical journey, which has involved synchronicity, precognition, and telekinesis.

The Philocalia
by Origen Of Alexandria George LewisThe Philocalia by Origen of Alexandria is a profound compilation of theological and exegetical insights from one of the most influential early Christian scholars. Compiled by Basil the Great and Gregory of Nazianzus in the 4th century, this work gathers essential excerpts from Origen’s extensive writings, presenting his thoughts on Scripture interpretation, theology, and the spiritual life in a concise and accessible format. Philocalia—meaning “love of the beautiful”—reflects Origen’s belief that the pursuit of truth and divine wisdom is an act of spiritual beauty.This collection covers a range of topics essential to early Christian thought, including the relationship between faith and reason, the nature of God, the interpretation of difficult scriptural passages, and the practice of spiritual discipline. Origen’s emphasis on allegorical and mystical readings of Scripture offers a unique window into how early Christian thinkers engaged with sacred texts, seeking deeper spiritual meaning beyond the literal words.The text also addresses central theological questions, such as the problem of evil, the purpose of suffering, and humanity’s role in the divine plan. Origen’s innovative ideas—many of which were later debated or contested—reveal his bold attempt to reconcile Greek philosophy with Christian doctrine, providing valuable insight into the intellectual currents shaping early Christianity.The Philocalia is a treasure for those interested in patristics, theology, and the history of biblical exegesis. Through the efforts of Basil and Gregory, this work preserves the essence of Origen’s thought, allowing readers to explore the intellectual and spiritual depth of a towering figure in early Christianity. Whether as a tool for study or personal reflection, The Philocalia invites believers to seek the beauty of divine truth and wisdom through a deeper engagement with Scripture and the life of the mind.

The Philosopher's Dog: Friendships with Animals
by Raimond GaitaThe philosopher Raimond Gaita has always been fascinated by animals– their obvious intelligence and disturbing brutality, their uncanny responsiveness to our moods and needs, the deep feelings they elicit from us and seem to return. In this marvelous, luminous book, Gaita trains the lens of philosophy on the mystery and beauty of the animals he has known and loved best. The Philosopher’s Dogis one of those rare works that engage the heart from the very first paragraph and haunt the mind long after one has finished reading. What does Gaita’s dog, Gypsy, think about while she sits on her mat gazing out to sea for hours on end? Why did the irascible cockatoo Jack greet Gaita’s father with kisses each morning but bite everyone else? How can we acknowledge that animals are sentient and yet deny that they have consciousness? Is it possible to love animals and still eat meat? In contemplating questions like these, Gaita weaves together personal stories–inspiring, sometimes heartbreaking accounts about the animals he and his family members have sheltered–with the reflections and analysis of a professional philosopher. A graceful, engaging stylist, Gaita is perfectly lucid as he grapples with great thinkers through the ages–from Socrates to Wittgenstein, Descartes to Hannah Arendt. And yet, as important as formal philosophy has been to him, Gaita frankly acknowledges that he has learned much about the nature of life from Gypsy and Jack and his courageously arrogant cat Tosca. In the end, he argues that love should be the essence of our bond with animals, the critical factor that guides how we treat them and think about their place in our world. In pondering the meaning and morality of his relationships with animals, and with the natural world more generally, Raimond Gaita has created a surprising masterpiece, a book of startling insights, spellbinding stories, meticulous observations, and wise reflection. At once engrossing and thought-provoking,The Philosopher’s Dog is a supremely enjoyable book. From the Hardcover edition.
