Evocative and unchanging, Chinese scholars' rocks--also called gongshí--have served as objects of contemplation and inspiration for thousands of years. And the presence of these rocks in homes and gardens and their depiction in Chinese art continues to inform Chinese art history and philosophy today. In Contemplating Rocks, the renowned art dealer Marcus Flacks offers a sumptuous new exploration of the world of Chinese scholars' rocks. Richly illustrated with photographs of some of the world's most exquisite collections and enriched by lavish reproductions of original paintings by leading Chinese ink painters such as Liu Dan, Xu Lei, and Tai Xiangzhou, Flacks offers readers a deeper understanding of the enigmatic and introspective world of scholars' rocks in classical Chinese culture. An illuminating historical note by Robert D. Mowry, curator of Chinese Art and head of the Department of Asian Art at the Harvard Art Museums, complements this gorgeous volume.

These essays invite the reader to join the author’s quest for meaning and wonder in the natural world. After the journey out of evangelical fundamentalism recorded in Unified Field Theology, the journey continues. Through years with more darkness than anticipated, the light shines through. And darkness turns out to be the best place for discerning faint and distant lights. The natural forces studied in the search for the unified theory reveal that the creative sustaining power of the universe is real and observable through science. Humility and wonder are found responding to the size of the cosmos. The strangeness of the quanta invites us to mystery and things beyond rational comprehension accompanied by the assurance that our most basic level is as eternal as the universe. Significance appears in caring for each other, a trait which is now found in both the animal and plant world as well. Returning to traditional sources of faith, the Bible remains an amazing library of voices revealing one people’s evolution of understanding of the ultimate. Like practices of other cultures, it invites us to be still and know. Life is indeed good. We are here, together, choosing how we respond to a very real God.

Soft Despotism Democracy S Drift written by Paul Anthony Rahe and has been published by Yale University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009-01-01 with Political Science categories.

In 1989, the Cold War abruptly ended and it seemed as if the world was at last safe for democracy. But a spirit of uneasiness, discontent, and world-weariness soon arose and has persisted in Europe, in America, and elsewhere for two decades. To discern the meaning of this malaise we must investigate the nature of liberal democracy, says the author of this provocative book, and he undertakes to do so through a detailed investigation of the thinking of Montesquieu, Rousseau, and Tocqueville. Paul A. Rahe argues that these political thinkers anticipated the modern liberal republic's propensity to drift in the direction of “soft despotism”—a condition that arises within a democracy when paternalistic state power expands and gradually undermines the spirit of self-government. Such an eventuality, feared by Tocqueville in the nineteenth century, has now become a reality throughout the European Union, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. So Rahe asserts, and he explains what must be done to reverse this unfortunate trend.
