The God Who Walks Slowly: Reflections on mission with Kosuke Koyama
ISBN: 9780334061113 / Angielski / Miękka / 2022 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. We live in a world in which the church inhabits a deep existential anxiety about its future, feels pushed to the edges of society and doesn’t deal well with its marginalisation. Kosuke Koyama’s writing most notably in his famous Three mile an Hour God acts as an antidote for the preoccupation with speed, size and the spectacular - “God walks slowly because He is love.” In The God Who Walks Slowly, missiologist Ben Aldous explores how Koyama’s theology encourages an approach to mission which truly reflects the rhythm, pace, vision and surrender of Christ.

Crome Yellow
ISBN: 9781440411526 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Crome Yellow is the first novel by British author Aldous Huxley. It was published in 1921. In the book, Huxley satirises the fads and fashions of the time. It is the witty story of a house party at 'Crome' (a lightly veiled Garsington) where there is a gathering of "bright young things." We hear some of the history of the house from Henry Wimbush, its owner and self-appointed historian; apocalypse is prophesied, virginity is lost and inspirational aphorisms are gained in a trance. Our hero, Denis Stone, tries to capture it all in poetry and is disappointed in love.

Wewnętrzny Bóg
ISBN: 9788362858989 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Aldous Huxley (1894–1963), pisarz urodzony w Anglii, mieszkający od lat trzydziestych XX wieku w USA, najlepiej znany ze słynnej antyutopii Nowy wspaniały świat (1932), stanowi ciekawy przykład ewolucji w zakresie stosunku do sfery duchowej. W młodości zdecydowany agnostyk i prześmiewca, z biegiem lat coraz bardziej angażował się w tematykę religijną. Od lat czterdziestych XX wieku uchodził za „mistyka”. Nigdy nie stał się członkiem żadnej grupy religijnej. Choć sympatyzował z wedantą, zenem, a także z chrześcijańskim mistycyzmem, był sceptyczny wobec...

The World of Shaft: A Complete Guide to the Novels, Comic Strip, Films and Television Series
ISBN: 9780786499236 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Mention Shaft and most people think of Gordon Parks' seminal 1971 film starring Richard Roundtree in a leather coat, walking the streets of Manhattan to Isaac Hayes' iconic theme music. But the black private dick who inspired the blaxploitation film genre actually made his debut on the printed page as the creation of a white novelist.
Ernest Tidyman was a seasoned journalist down on his luck when he decided to try his hand at fiction. Shaft was the result, giving Tidyman the break he was looking for. He went on to become an Academy Award winning screenwriter and respected film...

Ends and Means: An Inquiry into the Nature of Ideals
ISBN: 9781412847445 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 412 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Contemporary intellectuals still struggle over the relationship of ends to means, especially in political discourse. Pacifism is still an important topic today, as terrorism and dictatorial states abound. Many will find solace in Ends and Means, while others will find the book only a case study of the relationship of ethics to politics. Aldous Huxley examines common issues in a unique fashion. How can the regression in charity through which we are living, and for which each one of us is in some measure responsible, be halted and reversed? How can existing society be transformed into the ideal...
