Sacred Homemaking
Transform your house into a living sanctuary with ritual, magic, and gratitude Kimberly Steele defines the home as the seat of the soul; it is our personal ecosystem, rich with spirits and elemental energies. Within this context the concept of ‘sacred homemaking’ can be defined as a constant conversation with these spirits of place. All too often we devalue our homes, viewing them in purely monetary terms, as collections of ‘things’ without consciousness or sentience. Sacred Homemaking invites us to reconsider this relationship, instead prioritising thankfulness and gratitude, to deepen our relationships with the spirits in our homes. Through the course of this book, Steele proves that by practicing gratitude, the sacred homemaker learns to communicate with such beings to bring order, balance, and serenity into the home. Sacred Homemaking takes a clear and intuitive structure, following the wheel of the year with sections divided across the four seasons. It offers examples of different offerings and rituals that can be performed to approve the sanctity of the home. Examples include cleaning rituals; hoodoo spray; alchemical kitchen work; etheric and astral pyramids; spells; divination; folding methods; astral purification; gardening advice; haunted objects; dealing with poltergeists; and much more!In the busy, materialistic world of the twenty-first century, Kimberly Steele’s methodology is a refreshing reminder to introduce mindfulness and intention into our everyday lives, starting with something as simple, yet infinitely important, as the home.

It follows:Three incredibly strong women forced to bring up their families on their own following the early deaths of their husbands. The rabbi who, after living in Vienna, moved back to Bohemia, helping other family members on the way. The musician who survived being bayoneted in Serbia in World War One, and then moved to Berlin where he fell in love with a ballerina.

Project V
STEMinist mecha fantasy meets reality television in this high-stakes novel from the author of A Magical Girl Retires--a wildly imaginative tale of sibling bonds, unexpected friendship, and an existential quest to understand what it means to be human.
Robotics student Kim Wooram, runner-up at the World Gigantic Mechanics Olympiad, is a world-class pilot and engineer. Unlike many of her contemporaries, she likes working solo, preferring the company of robots to most other humans. Sought by robotics centers across the globe, she chooses to return to Korea after learning of an exciting new secret government robotic project known as V. To her disappointment, only male pilots are allowed to apply.
Desperate for a chance to make history and encouraged by her twin brother, Boram, the usual rule-following Wooram makes a risky choice. Posing as Boram, she auditions for Project V, the reality competition show whose winner will pilot the robot V--and quickly becomes one of the top contestants in both skill and popularity. Wooram attracts fans and friends like Seojin, the show's youngest female writer and ardent "Boram" stan, and Jeonghoon, the clumsy but lovable underdog. She also gains a rival in Jinyoung, the ruthless heir to a Korean corporate dynasty.
As Wooram comes tantalizingly close to achieving her goal, she begins to realize that V's arrogant AI is a ticking time bomb. With victory within reach, and her identity at stake, will Wooram destroy the robot of her dreams to save lives, or stick to the script?
Project V is a playful yet sharp meditation on some of the most pressing issues roiling modern society in Korea and across the globe: the male dominance in STEM fields, the ethics of parasocial idolatry and our addiction to social media and reality television, and the promise and peril of an AI-oriented future. Punchy and compelling, Park Seolyeon's novel is a winning exploration of ambition and creation--a quintessential novel of our present and future for mecha fans and all curious readers.

Calder: Dreaming in Equilibrium
A richly illustrated exploration of Calder's deep ties to France and the evolution of his work
This book brings together more than three hundred works, testament to Alexander Calder's profound connection to France and the way he developed a radically modern body of work. It focuses on the evolution of Calder's work over his career, at times in harmony with the masterpieces of his contemporaries, such as Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky, as well as his close circle, including Hans Arp, Joan Miró, and Fernand Léger. This dialogue between Calder and the international scene contextualizes his work's significance.
This richly illustrated book is edited by the exhibition's curators, Anna Karina Hofbauer and Dieter Buchhart. It features contributions from Elisabeth Hutton Turner, Chuz Martinez, Olivier Michelon, and Arnauld Pierre, as well as an interview between Sandy Rower and Jordana Mendelson.

Consequences of Normal
A devoted mother fights to change hearts and minds while protecting her transgender child in a hopeful and poignant novel about family, finding your voice, and the illusion of normalcy. Jane Zander has moved with her husband, Matt, back to his hometown of Atwood, Wisconsin, where he is the new headmaster of the prestigious Atwood Prep School. Jane hopes it will be a good fit for herself, her husband, and their children. Especially Charles, their six-year-old son, who aspires to be the next Julia Child, rejects the norms of boyhood, and insists he is a girl. Jane only wants Charles to be happy. Matt, fearing for his own reputation in a town small enough for everyone to know everything, is in denial. And Charles is facing increasing pressure to conform. When Jane befriends Libby, an Atwood outcast, her advocacy for Charles grows even stronger. Then an unforeseen crisis changes everything, forcing a husband and wife, a family, and a community to confront their beliefs about gender, identity, and unconditional love. Compassionate and illuminating, The Consequences of Normal explores the journey of a mother and child navigating a different but true path of their own.
Higher Education in China
Assessing the trajectory of China's higher education system amid competing domestic priorities and global ambitions. By 2025, China had twice as many college students as the United States, four times as many STEM graduates, and double the number of STEM PhDs. What will it mean for the global future when a quarter of a billion Chinese citizens hold higher education degrees? In this timely book, Gerard A. Postiglione—an internationally recognized authority on Chinese education—offers a panoramic view of the world's largest state-directed higher education system and its complex interplay with China's social, economic, and geopolitical ambitions. At the center of Postiglione's analysis is the tension between domestic imperatives and global aspirations. As China aims to cultivate a world-significant higher education system by 2035, it faces a trio of formidable challenges: graduate employment, equitable access, and governance reform. Higher Education in China unpacks how elite Chinese research institutions and rapidly expanding second- and third-tier colleges are navigating these pressures amid a shifting landscape shaped by urban-rural inequality, labor market demands, and technological disruption. Based on policy consultation with China's Ministry of Education and on-the-ground research in nearly every province, Postiglione's account brings unmatched depth and perspective. He traces how returnee scholars, massification policies, and regional development initiatives have transformed campuses and classrooms, while also posing difficult questions about sustainability, quality, and inclusion. Higher Education in China illustrates how the country's evolving academic system may influence its long-term trajectory—and, by extension, reshape the global order of knowledge and innovation.
Draiocht Ceoil
Within us all is the ability to hear the magic of sound, to use music and words to create a new reality. In Irish traditions this is known as Dra ocht Ceoil - 'music magic' - an ancient art deeply rooted in Ireland s mythology and culture, used for generations to harness the power of sound for connecting to natural magical energy. This is the first book of its kind to examine the tradition of Dra ocht Ceoil, its ancient roots in the poetic tradition of Old Ireland, and its evolution into a vital part of Irish folk magic practices. From its early times, Irish society has elevated the roles of poet and musician to facilitators of magic, which has evolved into a rich tradition of both domestic and political magic, surviving throughout Ireland into the modern era, adapting to the needs of its generations. No musical or literary expertise is needed, only a love of sound and creativity, for Dra ocht Ceoil to add depth to your magical practice. Its application to meditation and journeying will make it a perfect addition to your spiritual path.

Odvážní ve víře
Bible nám stále říká, že tento svět není naším domovem. Dlouhou dobu se však zdálo, že by jím být mohl. Naše kultura se ale mění – a začínáme si ve vlastní zemi připadat jako cizinci. Jsme v pokušení hněvat se, sklopit hlavu nebo to prostě vzdát.
Není to však poprvé, kdy Boží lid musí přijít na to, jak žít s důvěrou a vírou v prostředí, které se staví proti Božím cestám a proti Božímu slovu. Už jsme to dokázali dříve a můžeme to dokázat i dnes.
Alistair Begg nás se svou charakteristickou jasností, vhledem a vřelostí uvádí do doby proroka Daniela. Nevyzývá nás k tomu, abychom byli jako Daniel, ale spíše abychom důvěřovali Danielovu Bohu. Víme, že jsme spaseni vírou. Teď je čas naučit se být odvážní ve víře.
Alistair Begg je hlavním pastorem v Parkside Church v Clevelandu ve státě Ohio a učitelem Bible ve službě rozhlasového a on-line vysílání Truth For Life.

Autobiografie Martina Barreho nabízí otevřený a osobní pohled na život jednoho z nejvýraznějších kytaristů britské rockové scény. Autor mapuje svou hudební cestu od skromných začátků až po dlouholeté působení ve skupině Jethro Tull, kde se podílel na vzniku ikonických skladeb a alb. Barre čtenáře provází zákulisím koncertních turné, nahrávacích studií i proměn hudebního průmyslu. Svůj osobní život vykresluje jako cestu plnou hledání rovnováhy mezi hudební kariérou a soukromím. Otevřeně popisuje, jak bylo náročné skloubit intenzivní koncertování s rodinným životem a jak dlouhé odloučení ovlivňovalo jeho vztahy. Nevynechává ani období nejistoty, tlaku a pochybností, které přicházely ruku v ruce s úspěchem. Držitel ceny Grammy nám upřímně a se skromností odkrývá svou životní cestu nedílně spjatou s hudbou, ve které dosahuje technické preciznosti a citlivého, melodického projevu přecházejícího od jemných akustických pasáží až po výrazná kytarová sóla.
The Radiant Dark
It's March 1980, and Carol Girard and her husband are living an ordinary life in a small town in the Adirondacks. They have just had their first child, and though Carol is struggling with the challenges of new motherhood, her future seems clear. Until something extraordinary happens: an inexplicable flickering of light in the sky, which is ultimately determined to be communication from intelligent life on another planet. But these beings are eleven light-years away, and nothing is known about them other than the fact that they seem to know we exist too. And so begins a decades-long exchange of messages with this mysterious, faraway civilization.
As humanity reels from a shifting understanding of its place in the universe, we follow the stories of the Girard family: Carol, whose fascination with this other life sparks a desperate search for spiritual meaning; Michael, her loyal son, who finds solace not in the stars above his head but in the ground beneath his feet; and Ro, Carol's bright and ambitious daughter, whose childhood goal to work in interstellar communication will evolve into something far grander. Tracing five decades of love, loss, ambition, and self-discovery, The Radiant Dark is a stunning examination of a family navigating their lives with the knowledge that we are not alone.
Fables & Lies
WWII Berlin. Freyja Bremer, a patriotic museum assistant, marries Kaspar Voigt, an ambitious SS scholar, to protect her father. Yet she is unaware her husband is instrumental in Himmler’s twisted quest for Aryan supremacy. As she strives to safeguard the priceless Priam’s Treasure from air raids, Freyja falls in love with Darien Lessing, an archaeologist who exposes the moral decay beneath the Regime’s myths. Her awakening drives her into perilous resistance – aiding a Jewish doctor and his wife, Darien’s sister – while uncovering Kaspar’s role in the SS’s darkest programmes, which subvert history to justify invasion, abduction and murder. As Berlin collapses into chaos and bloodshed, Freyja, caught between duty, deception and desire, must risk everything to preserve truth in a world built on lies. A heartbreaking yet triumphant love story, Fables & Lies shines light on lesser-known aspects of the Nazi Regime. It gives voice to the complex moral struggles of German women, the forgotten resistance of Gentiles married to Jews, the dangers of contested history, the evils of Himmler’s racial studies programme and the unsung bravery of German museum curators who saved their nation’s treasures.
