He ranges through the work of writers, artists, and scientists such as da Vinci, Keats, Darwin, and van Gogh and across nearly 40,000 years of human history: Ice Age images of plant life in ancient cave art and the earliest representations of the Garden of Eden; Newton’s apple and gravity, Priestley’s sprig of mint and photosynthesis, and Wordsworth’s daffodils; the history of cultivated plants such as maize, ginseng, and cotton; and the ways the sturdy oak became the symbol of British nationhood and the giant sequoia came to epitomize the spirit of America.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Complemented by dozens of full-color illustrations, ＜em＞The Cabaret of Plants＜/em＞ is the magnum opus of a great naturalist and an extraordinary exploration of the deeply interwined history of humans and the natural world.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Tree That Gives Back Finding Reciprocity, Wonder, and Wisdom in the Living World【電子書籍】[ Felix Clarke ]

＜p＞The Tree That Gives Back is a luminous collection of nature essays that explores the quiet intelligence of the natural world and the moral lessons it offers through reciprocity. Using the humble serviceberry tree as both metaphor and guide, the author reveals how every living thingーhuman, plant, soil, and skyーis bound in a web of giving and receiving. At its heart, this book is a meditation on gratitude as a natural law. The serviceberry feeds birds and bears, shades the forest floor, and blossoms long before other trees wake from winter. Its rhythm becomes a model for human living: give when you can, rest when you must, and trust that generosity sustains more than survivalーit sustains meaning. Through clear, poetic essays, The Tree That Gives Back moves from one small plant to the vast systems it represents. Readers walk alongside the author through forests, fields, and city gardens, where acts of exchange are happening everywhereーbetween fungi and roots, between wind and seed, between people and the planet. Science meets spirit as ecology becomes a language of relationship. Each essay is built around a simple question: What does the earth give us, and what do we owe in return? The answers unfold through vivid observation, ecological insight, and personal reflection. The author writes of harvesting wild fruit without greed, of the ethics of eating, and of how gratitude can be an act of resistance in a culture built on taking.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞So what does it mean to be "a living soul"? Has anyone ever seen one? And, surprising as it may be to those with the surety of scientific investigation, no one has ever seen consciousness either. However much they both are investigated. However much they both are the subject of speculation. Always and ever, invisible. Maybe the closest we can come to a possible explanation can be found in what Plotinus wrote in the second century CE: "We aren't separated from spirit, we are in it." Unlike Hofer's other writing, this little book isn't an argument for the existence of God. What is being documented is humanity's search for, and embrace of, what we know but cannot physically see.＜/p＞ ＜p＞From Homo sapiens inspired to walk out of Africa 70,000 years ago to those who constructed a place of worship 11,600 years ago＜br /＞ From a pot-bound “rationalistic interpretation” of religion to the inspiring invisibility of "numinous awe"＜br /＞ From the 20th-century brain-bound search for consciousness to the 21st-century consciousness research that opens the door to its invisibility＜/p＞ ＜p＞Hofer refers to this invisible place as our “living soul.” Theoretical physicist John Wheeler described it as “a special room, a museum of wonders.” (from Chapter 13)＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞About the Author＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Other books by Patricia Hofer include ＜em＞Can Reincarnation and “Near-Death Experiences” Be Christian?

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Nina Simone's Gum A Memoir of Things Lost and Found【電子書籍】[ Warren Ellis ]

＜p＞THE TIMES TOP 10 BESTSELLER A GUARDIAN, TELEGRAPH, THE TIMES, IRISH TIMES, ROUGH TRADE, MOJO, CLASH, ROLLING STONE, UNCUT BOOK OF THE YEAR From award-winning musician and composer Warren Ellis comes the unexpected and inspiring story of a piece of chewing gum. FEATURING AN INTRODUCTION BY NICK CAVE 'Warren has turned this memento, snatched from his idol's piano in a moment of rapture, into a genuine religious artefact.' NICK CAVE 'Such a mad, happy book about art and music and obsession. I'm so glad I got to read it. It made the world feel lighter.' NEIL GAIMAN 'In praise of meaning-rich relics and magical things. Totally heartwarming project.' MAX PORTER 'A unique study of a fan's devotion, of transcendence and of the artistic vocation - it's got depth and great warmth. It's a beautiful piece of work.' KEVIN BARRY I hadn't opened the towel that contained her gum since 2013. The last person to touch it was Nina Simone, her saliva and fingerprints unsullied. The idea that it was still in her towel was something I had drawn strength from. I thought each time I opened it some of Nina Simone's spirit would vanish. In many ways that thought was more important than the gum itself. On Thursday 1 July, 1999, Dr Nina Simone gave a rare performance as part of Nick Cave's Meltdown Festival. After the show, in a state of awe, Warren Ellis crept onto the stage, took Dr Simone's piece of chewed gum from the piano, wrapped it in her stage towel and put it in a Tower Records bag. The gum remained with him for twenty years; a sacred totem, his creative muse, a conduit that would eventually take Ellis back to his childhood and his relationship with found objects, growing in significance with every passing year. Nina Simone's Gum is about how something so small can form beautiful connections between people. It is a story about the meaning we place on things, on experiences, and how they become imbued with spirituality. It is a celebration of artistic process, friendship, understanding and love. 'This is such a beautiful f*@king book. Thank you, Warren. I highly recommend this motherf*@ker.' FLEA 'A beautifully written book about the power of music and objects. I powered through it in two days.' COURTNEY BARNETT 'A moving, inspiration insight into a beautiful mind.' JIM JARMUSCH 'The year's most eccentric and joyful musical memoir.' DAILY TELEGRAPH (Books of the year) '[Nina Simone's Gum] is a metaphor for [Ellis'] creativity - the blossoming of a small idea into something bigger and bolder - but also a journey inside the impulsive, improvisatory mind of Warren Ellis, his passions, obsessions and superstitions.' OBSERVER '[A] beautiful, strikingly idiosyncratic book - part memoir, part essay, part conceptual art project, all testament to humans at their strangest and best . . . [Ellis] sees signifiance where others might not.' MOJO 'A glorious piece of object fetishism . . . Marvel as Ellis' collection of eccentric personal mementos morphs into a celebration of the intangible wonder of music.' UNCUT 'Wonderful.' THE TIMES 'The most peculiar book I've ever read.' CRAIG BROWN, MAIL ON SUNDAY 'Delightful . . . A joy from start to finish.' BIG ISSUE 'A joyous work full of love, connection, creativity and gratitude.' THE SPECTATOR 'Completely charming and joyful . . . glorious.' LA REVIEW OF BOOKS 'Beautiful . . . remarkable.'
