Download or read book So They Say written by Robert H. Mounce and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-09-30 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A good quotation states an insight so shrewdly that not only do you get it, but you can't seem to forget it. It loves to make you slow down and savor truth. These neat little extended metaphors deserve to be heard, examined, and challenged. Quotations present truth in capsule form. Many reflect the wisdom of earlier times; others bring insights that are fresh and contemporary. Some support the status quo; others challenge it. So They Say is a collection of more than seventy quotes, along with author Robert Mounce's reflections on how they relate to the real world. This interaction turns out to be a battle of worldviews, for as Mounce explains, he could never embrace philosophical materialism because his experience of reality demands something outside of "stuff"--he wants to know where the DNA of the very first living cell came from, and he dissects each quotation accordingly. By approaching each quotation from this supernaturalist point of view, Mounce's So They Say invites you to read, reflect, and enjoy the journey.

Download or read book The Guide to the Perplexed written by Moses Maimonides and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-28 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A landmark new translation of the most significant text in medieval Jewish thought. Written in Arabic and completed around 1190, the Guide to the Perplexed is among the most powerful and influential living texts in Jewish philosophy, a masterwork navigating the straits between religion and science, logic and revelation. The author, Rabbi Moses ben Maimon, commonly known as Maimonides or as Rambam, was a Sephardi Jewish philosopher, jurist, and physician. He wrote his Guide in the form of a letter to a disciple. But the perplexity it aimed to cure might strike anyone who sought to square logic, mathematics, and the sciences with biblical and rabbinic traditions. In this new translation by philosopher Lenn E. Goodman and historian Phillip I. Lieberman, Maimonides' warm, conversational voice and clear explanatory language come through as never before in English. Maimonides knew well the challenges facing serious inquirers at the confluence of the two great streams of thought and learning that Arabic writers labeled 'aql and naql, reason and tradition. The aim of the Guide, he wrote, is to probe the mysteries of physics and metaphysics. But mysteries, to Maimonides, were not conundrums to be celebrated for their obscurity. They were problems to be solved. Maimonides' methods and insights resonate throughout the work of later Jewish thinkers, rationalists, and mystics, and in the work of philosophers like Thomas Aquinas, Spinoza, Leibniz, and Newton. The Guide continues to inspire inquiry, discovery, and vigorous debate among philosophers, theologians, and lay readers today. Goodman and Lieberman's extensive and detailed commentary provides readers with historical context and philosophical enlightenment, giving generous access to the nuances, complexities, and profundities of what is widely agreed to be the most significant textual monument of medieval Jewish thought, a work that still offers a key to those who hope to harmonize religious commitments and scientific understanding.

Book excerpt: Joseph Crosby Lincoln, a well-known American novelist best known for his New England-focused novels and short stories, wrote the book "Galusha the Magnificent." 1916 saw the book's initial publication. Galusha Bangs, a mild-mannered and slightly eccentric character, is the main character of the novel. He unexpectedly rises to a position of influence and authority. After inheriting a substantial amount of money, Galusha finds himself in a number of amusing and difficult scenarios while he gets used to his new situation. The influence of sudden fortune on a person's life, small-town living, and cultural expectations are all explored in this book. The writings of Joseph C. Lincoln frequently combine romance, humour, and a deep comprehension of human nature. Early in the 20th century, he wrote a great deal; his novels and novellas were well-liked by readers for their captivating stories and realistic portrayals of daily life. Among his numerous literary accomplishments, "Galusha the Magnificent" demonstrates how well Lincoln used humour and social satire to create a gripping story. This book can be fun to read if you like stories about oddball folks in small-town America with a hint of humour.
