  • by Max Heindel
    £19.99

    In a time when astrological analysis can begin within seconds of an on-screen click, we do not often consider the methods that were previously used to individually calculate a chart as correctly and simply as possible. This text contains the fundamental processes of attaining astrological data so that we may understand and benefit from this tradition which grants us infinite knowledge, reflection, and growth. Concise, descriptive, at times even poetic, Simplified Scientific Astrology includes instructions and examples on accurately determining planetary positions for a given time and location, and demonstrates an organized method of indexing to derive overall conditions and effects. The second, extensive portion of the book is an encyclopedia of astrological terms which defines these distinctly and lucidly. The work of this master of Astrology is complemented through this elegantly restored volume. Within these pages, Max Heindel succinctly elaborates the procedures of astrological calculation and the integral concepts of this tremendous discipline.

  • by John Lippitt
    £22.99 - 83.49

    The problem of whether we should love ourselves - and if so how - has particular resonance within Christian thought and is an important yet underinvestigated theme in the writings of Soren Kierkegaard. In Works of Love, Kierkegaard argues that the friendships and romantic relationships which we typically treasure most are often merely disguised forms of 'selfish' self-love. Yet in this nuanced and subtle account, John Lippitt shows that Kierkegaard also provides valuable resources for responding to the challenge of how we can love ourselves, as well as others. Lippitt relates what it means to love oneself properly to such topics as love of God and neighbour, friendship, romantic love, self-denial and self-sacrifice, trust, hope and forgiveness. The book engages in detail with Works of Love, related Kierkegaard texts and important recent studies, and also addresses a wealth of wider literature in ethics, moral psychology and philosophy of religion.

Published by Oxford University Press in 2016, this book delves into the world of genes and their role in evolution. Dawkins beautifully explains how genes, in their quest for survival, can lead to seemingly selfish behavior in living organisms. This book, belonging to the genre of popular science, has since its publication, stirred up a revolution in the way we perceive natural selection. It is a testament to Dawkins' profound understanding of the subject and his ability to simplify complex concepts for his readers. The Selfish Gene is not just a book; it's a journey into the heart of life itself, guided by one of the greatest thinkers of our time. Published by the renowned Oxford University Press, this book promises quality and credibility. It's not just a book, it's a treasure trove of knowledge waiting to be uncovered.
