Download or read book Jaguar s Shadow written by Richard Mahler and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the nature writer Richard Mahler discovers that wild jaguars are prowling a remote corner of his home state of New Mexico, he embarks on a determined quest to see in the flesh a big, beautiful cat that is the stuff of legend--yet verifiably real. Mahler's passion sets in motion a years-long adventure through trackless deserts, steamy jungles, and malarial swamps, as well as a confounding immersion in centuries-old debates over how we should properly regard these powerful predators: as varmints or as icons, trophies or gods? He is drawn from border badlands south to Panama's rain forest along a route where the fate of nearly all wildlife now rests in human hands. Mahler's odyssey introduces him to unrepentant poachers, pragmatic ranchers, midnight drug-runners, ardent conservationists, trance-induced shamans, hopeful biologists, stodgy bureaucrats, academic philosophers, macho hunters, and gentle Maya Indians. Along the way, he is forced to reconsider the true meaning of his search--and the enduring symbolism of the jaguar.

Book excerpt: If someone else reincarnated, even if they were trash, they would still be human. Why am I reincarnated as a cat? It's fine if I turned into a cat. Other people entering the academy to act cool and have a relationship was fine, but I became a teacher with my life on the line. Furthermore, the class I took was the most useless one in the entire academy. It's not suitable for me to play the pig to eat the tiger. I can only slap my face to make it look fat. Everything is as I remember it ... 

Download or read book Beasts and Gods written by Roslyn Fuller and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-15 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Democracy does not deliver on the things we have assumed are its natural outcomes. This, coupled with a growing sense of malaise in both new and established democracies forms the basis to the assertion made by some, that these are not democracies at all. Through considerable, impressive empirical analysis of a variety of voting methods, across twenty different nations, Roslyn Fuller presents the data that makes this contention indisputable. Proving that the party which forms the government rarely receives the majority of the popular vote, that electoral systems regularly produce manufactured majorities and that the better funded side invariably wins such contests in both elections and referenda, Fuller's findings challenge the most fundamental elements of both national politics and broader society. Beast and Gods argues for a return to democracy as perceived by the ancient Athenians. Boldly arguing for the necessity of the Aristotelian assumption that citizens are agents whose wishes and aims can be attained through participation in politics, and through an examination of what “goods” are provided by democracy, Fuller offers a powerful challenge to the contemporary liberal view that there are no "goods" in politics, only individual citizens seeking to fulfil their particular interests.

Download or read book The Beast God Forgot to Invent written by Jim Harrison and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unforgettable collection of novellas from the author of Legends of the Fall explores the line between civilization and the “wild men.” Jim Harrison is an American master. The Beast God Forgot to Invent offers stories of culture and wildness, of men and beasts and where they overlap. A wealthy man retired to the Michigan woods narrates the tale of a younger man decivilized by brain damage. A Michigan Indian wanders Los Angeles, hobnobbing with starlets and screenwriters while he tracks an ersatz Native-American activist who stole his bearskin. An aging alpha canine, the author of three dozen throwaway biographies, eats dinner with the ex-wife of his overheated youth, and must confront the man he used to be. “Harrison’s intricate symbolism and scathing observations of urban foibles, his sly humor and vibrant language remind readers that he is one of our most talented chroniclers of the masculine psyche, intellectual or not.” —Publishers Weekly

Download or read book Praying with Katie written by Don Holt and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time when Don Holt's life was full of difficult problems to worry about and he endured many sleepless nights, he spent several hours each day praying, meditating, and writing in his journal. As he sat on the sofa writing, his cat, Katie, would join him, leap into his lap, rub against his pen, and sniff at his face. At first he was annoyed with this interruption of his important spiritual work. But one day she climbed onto his shoulder and went to sleep. It struck him that this was precisely the relationship he wished he had with God - that metaphorically he could just lay his head on the Divine Shoulder and get a good night's sleep. His collected reflections are presented in Praying with Katie, a profound commentary on the meaning of God, faith, and life.

Book excerpt: A compilation of Christian Apologetics gathered from various authors over the years that is designed to bring brand new Christians up-to-speed quickly and to stengthen the faith for all Christians.

Furthermore, this book provides an historical discussion of Christian prophecy from a Dispensational persepective. Did you know that genetic anthrop-olgists have traced back our DNA to single parents; or that most of the miracles of the Old Testament probably occurred naturally such as the parting of the Red Sea; or that approximately 1,600 Bible Codes have been discovered around a single Old Testament chapter; or that it is highly probable that no human beings drowned in the Flood; or that Mount Sinai is not in the Sinai Peninsula but in Saudi Arabia and is heavily guarded; or that the speed of light may have been millions of times faster at the Creation than it is now?

Book excerpt: Three human civilizations in the galaxy have combined to form the Star Union. The three branches of the human family discover that they share a common interest in the star Deneb. The members of the Star Union possess folktales that are eerily similar despite the distance between the three star systems. Shortly after the union of the three societies, unidentified signals were detected from the Deneb region. An exploratory vessel was sent to investigate the origins of these transmissions. The expedition reported its safe arrival, then vanished. Now, almost a century later, new evidence has surfaced that reopens the concern about the events surrounding the missing expedition. A robotic scout sent to the Deneb star system has suddenly gone silent, so the Star Patrol dispatches a survey vessel to uncover the fate of the scout and the missing explorers. Will this investigation of the mystery in a new area of the galaxy reveal a bright future for the Star Union, or a warning of an impending shared fate?
