  The author of Traditional American Rooms examines the evolution of home construction, making a case against mass-produced homes. 
   
  HISTORY®’s Lone Star Restoration star, Brent Hull is a master craftsman, and hands-on preservationist. Hull—a Foreword Reviews Book of the Year Finalist for architectural non-fiction—challenges us to consider the impact our decisions will have when building a house. What do our homes say about us? What stories are they telling? Are they declarations of integrity, beauty, and heritage? Or do they suggest we have lost our sense of value, craft, and harmony? 
   
  Nationally recognized as an authority on historic design, architecturally correct moldings, and millwork, Hull is uniquely qualified to speak to the craft of building and art of design. In an age of “instant”‘ homes, how do we build something timeless that weaves a tale of character, values, history, and heart? The decisions we make for our homes are not inconsequential. What we build defines us. In fact, the contrast between the way we build today and how structures used to be built has become only more vivid. What happened to craft? What happened to the art of building? Our values and what we believe about life have changed as well. We have come to see houses as a tradable commodity. We live in a time that is obsessed with “what’s next?” We need to be careful of fooling ourselves into thinking that a bottom-line mentality is the best way to approach building a home. Now is the time to examine ourselves, our motives, and our hearts. 
   
  Praise for Building a Timeless House in an Instant Age 
   
  “Part call to action, part exploration of technique, the result is a persuasive and enjoyable reminder that our homes are reflections of ourselves . . . . A pleasing, educational look at traditional home construction.” —Kirkus Reviews

  The explanations of transcendent phenomena given by saints, sages, and near-death experiencers—miracles, immortality, heaven, God, and transcendent awareness—are fully congruent with scientific discoveries in the fields of relativity, quantum physics, medicine, M-theory, neuroscience, and quantum biology.The Physics of God describes the intersections of science and religion with colorful, easy-to-understand metaphors, making abstruse subjects within both science and religion easily accessible to the layman—no math, no dogma. This intriguing book:● Pulls back the curtain on the light-show illusion we call matter.● Connects string theory's hidden brane worlds to religion’s transcendent heavens.● Reveals the scientific secret of life and immortality: quantum biology's startling discovery that the human body is continuously entangled.● Demonstrates the miracle-making power of our minds to effect instantaneous physiological changes.

  Empty Cages - Facing the...

  Described by Jeffrey Masson as "the single best introduction to animal rights ever written, Tom Regan's EMPTY CAGES stands as an essential guide to the ongoing animal rights debate. In a style at once simple and elegant, Regan dispels the negative image of animal rights advocates as portrayed by the mass media, unmasks the fraudulent rhetoric of "humane treatment" favored by animal exploiters in both familiar and less well-documented contexts, and explains why existing laws function to legitimize institutional cruelty. In so doing, Regan invites readers to join the struggle for animal rights—one person at a time, one step at a time. Written by the leading philosophical spokesperson for animal rights, Tom Regan's shocking exposé of animal abuse makes an essential and lasting contribution to how animal rights is viewed in the United States and around the world. 
  "Tom Regan delivers a searing indictment of the way we treat animals in the world we have made for ourselves, and presents a trenchant case that animals have or should have rights in the same way that human beings have."—J. M. Coetzee, winner of the 2003 Nobel Prize for Literature 
  "Every so often a book is written that is destined to change the way people think. Tom Regan has written just such a book. EMPTY CAGES is compelling because it is logical, rational, and written in an elegantly simple style. Please buy this book, read it, and tell your friends about it. Everyone needs a copy on their bookshelf."—Jane Goodall 
  "Tom Regan's EMPTY CAGES is a powerful call for justice on one of the most urgent issues human society faces. Calmly, lucidly, he asks readers to confront the miserable conditions we have inflicted on animals, leaving us with three choices: find a flaw in the argument, work for change, or throw the book away and try to forget it. The indelible force of Regan's argument makes the third course very difficult."—Martha C. Nussbaum, University of Chicago

  "Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind" audiobook summary offers a concise yet profound exploration of Yuval Noah Harari's groundbreaking work on the journey of Homo Sapiens. This audio guide captures the essence of Harari's narrative, focusing on the pivotal revolutions that have shaped human history and society. 
  The journey begins with the Cognitive Revolution, a crucial genetic mutation 70,000 years ago that sparked unparalleled cognitive abilities in our ancestors. This was followed by the Agricultural Revolution 12,000 years ago, marking a significant transformation in human society, albeit with unanticipated challenges. The narrative then delves into the Scientific Revolution, which commenced 500 years ago, leading to an era of significant progress in understanding and manipulating the natural world. 
  Harari's work highlights the unique ability of Homo Sapiens to believe in shared myths - gods, states, money - driving large-scale cooperation and culture. However, this capability also brings complex moral dilemmas and challenges. This audiobook summary distills these complex themes into a digestible format, making it an efficient and engaging listen for both those familiar and new to Harari's work. 
  Efficiently curated, this summary focuses on the key messages and insights, providing a tool for reflection and understanding. It is an invitation to contemplate our species' trajectory, achievements, and potential future. This audiobook summary is not just a reduction of the original work; it's a thoughtful exploration of our shared human history, offering insights into our past, present, and future, in a world driven by rapid change and global challenges.
