Opening a major new front in discussions of the Anthropocene, The Neganthropocene is a collection of recent lectures by the leading French philosopher, Bernard Stiegler. In this volume, Stiegler engages substantially with Alfred North Whitehead, Jacques Derrida, Gilbert Simondon, Peter Sloterdijk, Karl Marx, Benjamin Bratton, and others in his renewed thought of the concepts of entropy and negentropy. Stiegler's life-long encounter with the work of Martin Heidegger reappears here in pursuit of the question not of what is called "thinking" (penser) but, in a twist on old French, of what is called "caring" (panser) as the possibility of a new therapeutic theory and practice capable of responding to the massive psychological, social and ecological toxicity associated with what, for Stiegler, is the disruptive age of the Entropocene.
'the' begins a new trilogy of poetry, exploring a multitude of issues in today's society. It's time for women to stop keeping secrets; no more hiding, no more concealing the truth. As more and more survivors of sexual violence and abuse share their experiences, strength will come. When women around the globe grow stronger, together we can change the future.
Fourteen years ago, Peter saved the world. Now, his sister Emily and two strangers receive coded invitations to return to the hidden village of Templewood, where Peter faces a new, terrifying threat. Templewood is home to the Sect, a secretive organisation intent on global power. They have infiltrated many Governments and are collaborating with the Visitors: alien invaders who have brought gifts of advanced scientific and genetic discoveries. These gifts will potentially provide enormous benefits for humanity and facilitate the Sect’s bid for power. But at what cost and what is the Visitors' motive? Why are they taking, then retuning, increasing numbers of the local population? Peter, Emily, and their friends must uncover the truth before their worst fears are confirmed.
The author, the Revd Dr David Thompson, has written a fascinating book, describing how his Christian beliefs have been inspired by and connected with Joseph and the coat of many colours.This, then is a double memoir. Not only has Dr Thompson written a moving account of his own life and his spiritual journey, but at the same time the story of Joseph and his amazing adventures, which were inspired by God. Many moving parallels are drawn between the two lives in the most thought-provoking manner. He draws attention to pivotal moments in his life which might have been ascribed to chance but which he demonstrates very clearly were experiences directed by God.He outlines his Christian philosophy, so like Joseph’s in humility and prayer, in a message which speaks to all of us in today’s frantically busy world.
