Описание: Set in a future far-removed from a global nuclear catastrophe and a past barely on record, small utopian enclaves exist peacefully whilst unknowingly surrounded by relentless chaotic realms dominated by ecological disasters and a population of bestial marauders. When a young, innocent monk falls in love with a rare half-wild survivor of the wastelands they must traverse seemingly endless desert and radioactive forests in flight from his doomed monastery triggered by the coming of the wild people. Through mutants, treacherous terrain and the results of radioactive gigantism, they're captured by a mysterious albino huntress, a trapper of wolves and bears with a hidden past - whilst a lone journeyer battles the wilderness on his own pursuit for a remote El Dorado; The City of Gold. This is a quest for survival against the odds. A humanistic story, a story of Us, and although futuristic, it is a fable for our time.

Описание: The Tao Te Ching is an ancient spiritual text from China. It is one of the most wonderful books ever (as proven by special science methods, honest) for helping us human beings to understand life, the universe, and everything. It can help us pierce the mystery, discover the hidden, and do no less than eff the ineffable.
Through poetry and metaphor the Tao Te Ching nudges our consciousness towards greater understanding of the nature of life in all its wonderful mystery and subtle challenge. In this new version, Francis Briers (Interfaith Minister, black belt martial artist, and accidental mystic) has taken the Tao's timeless wisdom and set it in modern language to make it easier to digest for a new generation of meaning seekers and spiritual explorers.
PRE-PUBLICATION REVIEWS:
"Francis Briers has done a brilliant job of casting the Tao Te Ching into a modern and popular form. His rendition flows with a humour and innocence that truly reflect the essence of the Taoist tradition. Whether you are approaching philosophy and personal development for the first time, or are an experienced explorer, My Tao Te Ching will make you smile with its wry insights and encourage you to be at ease with the wondrous miracle and paradox of your life."
- William Bloom, PhD, and author 'The Power of Modern Spirituality: How to Live a Life of Compassion and Personal Fulfilment'
"Each chapter is a meditation helping us not to be so grasping, to empty ourselves so that love and compassion can flow through us, without interference. The style of writing is like love poetry and reminds me of the poetry of the many mystical traditions - Such a gift. "
- Dr. Josie Gregory, PhD, and Director of The Centre for Spiritual Development and Facilitation
"I'm happy to have introduced Francis to the 'Tao Te Ching' as his Kung Fu Instructor many years ago and watched his progress over the years. To take on this 'bible' of Taoism could be an onerous task but Francis has the insight, wisdom and humour to make it work. It's an excellent and accurate translation with the wit and humour to keep any normal person engaged and able to understand the original meaning of the text with those deep 'glimpses' that can only come from true understanding."
- Steve Rowe, 8th Dan Karate, International Tai Chi Teacher, Chairman of the Martial Arts Standards Agency and Shi Kon Martial Arts International
"A beautiful book which touches on the wonderful, mysterious and sometimes ridiculous nature of life, the universe, and everything. Wonderful, creative and enjoyable "
- Sue Cheshire, CEO & Founder, Global Leaders Academy
"In this version of the Tao Te Ching, Francis Briers has brought to us a unique, playful, humorous, contemporary, and relevant edition of this well of delights. I find it a helpful, practical, and, at points, very funny read. Making a traditional text live in the modern world like this provides a valuable resource to us busy bees."

Описание: We often say that music is ineffable, that it does not refer to anything outside of itself. But if music, in all its sensuous flux, does not mean anything in particular, might it still have a special kind of philosophical significance?
In Deep Refrains, Michael Gallope draws together the writings of Arthur Schopenhauer, Friedrich Nietzsche, Ernst Bloch, Theodor Adorno, Vladimir Jank l vitch, Gilles Deleuze, and F lix Guattari in order to revisit the age-old question of music's ineffability from a modern perspective. For these nineteenth- and twentieth-century European philosophers, music's ineffability is a complex phenomenon that engenders an intellectually productive sense of perplexity. Through careful examination of their historical contexts and philosophical orientations, close attention to their use of language, and new interpretations of musical compositions that proved influential for their work, Deep Refrains forges the first panoptic view of their writings on music. Gallope concludes that music's ineffability is neither a conservative phenomenon nor a pious call to silence. Instead, these philosophers ask us to think through the ways in which music's stunning force might address, in an ethical fashion, intricate philosophical questions specific to the modern world.
