This is your go-to handbook for saving our precious planet. From the history of our planet and species, to the potential of individuals and our power to create a better future, Maslin inspires optimism in these bleak times. It's time to face the facts and save our planet from, and for, ourselves.

Описание: No one, no matter how brilliant, saintly or charismatic, ever has or ever will prove the existence - or non-existence -- of God. If the infinite God posited by Judaism since ancient times does, in fact, exist, then that God is by definition beyond human comprehension. And so this book does not attempt to prove the existence of God but rather takes an instinctual leap of faith, along with Moses, the Psalmists, Job, Maimonides and, yes, Albert Einstein, passing over the question of God's existence and asking instead the questions that have fueled the authentic religious enterprise for more than a hundred generations: What can we know of God and what does God require of us? A religion for adults seeks to probe the meaning and purpose of life. The very same may be said of science. Both reject pious platitudes and seek truth. Albert Einstein phrased it very nicely: "Science without religion is lame; religion without science is blind." What the author seeks to do, honoring both religion and science, is to introduce the reader to a God for Grown-ups.
Описание: In the bestselling tradition of works by such authors as Susan Orlean and Mary Roach, a New York Times reporter and Pulitzer Prize finalist explores why so many people--including herself--are obsessed with horses. It may surprise you to learn that there are over seven million horses in America--even more than when they were the only means of transportation--and nearly two million horse owners. Acclaimed journalist and avid equestrian Sarah Maslin Nir is one of them; she began riding horses when she was just two years old and hasn't stopped since. Horse Crazy is a fascinating, funny, and moving love letter to these graceful animals and the people who--like her--are obsessed with them. It is also a coming-of-age story of Nir growing up an outsider within the world's most elite inner circles, and finding her true north in horses. Nir takes us into the lesser-known corners of the riding world and profiles some of its most captivating figures. We meet Monty Roberts, the California trainer whose prowess earned him the nickname "the man who listens to horses"; George and Ann Blair, the African-American husband and wife who run a riding academy for disadvantaged youth on a tiny island in the middle of Manhattan's East River; and Francesca Kelly, whose love for an Indian nobleman shaped her life's mission: to rescue an endangered Indian breed of horse and bring them to America. Woven into these compelling character studies, Nir shares her own moving personal narrative. She details her father's harrowing tale of surviving the Holocaust, and describes an enchanted but deeply lonely upbringing in Manhattan, where horses became her family. She found them even in the middle of the city, in a stable disguised in an old townhouse and in Central Park, when she chased down truants as an auxiliary mounted patrol officer. And she speaks candidly of how horses have helped her overcome heartbreak and loss. Infused with heart and wit, and with each chapter named after a horse Nir has loved, Horse Crazy is an unforgettable blend of beautifully written memoir and first-rate reporting.

Praise for The Little Possum who Looked Up
I am a huge fan of Kim Maslin's cyber safety stories The Little Possum Who Looked Up is another fabulous title to add to my technology themed children's book list. This story is very relatable for kids and adults alike, as it addresses monitoring screen time and learning to be present by spending quality time with the people you love. The rhythmic rhyme of the words make this story flow beautifully - Julie Smith, The Techie Teacher
"We are living in a technological world that allows us to connect, learn and be entertained in unprecedented ways. In this beautiful children's book, Pebbles the Possum gently reminds us that our use of technology needs to be balanced and not displace face to face connection, communication, relationships and experiences. The Little Possum Who Looked Up provides us all with an opportunity to reflect on our use of technology and the wonderful experiences we can share together online and offline." - Kayelene Kerr - Cyber Safety and Digital Wellness Specialist, WA Child Safety Services

Описание:
The subtitle, "Truth Does Matter " to Dr. Maslin's book, Think on These Things, says it all. Dr. Maslin has drawn on his 40 years as a pastor to guide him in selecting practical and spiritual topics to which he applies the truth of God's Word. He draws upon both classical and contemporary authors for illustrations and insight. His research ranges from Bible commentaries to websites and scholarly books. He draws it all together in light of the Scriptures. For those who wish to think deeply on important topics, reading Think on These Things by Dr. Maslin is a good place to begin.
