Philosophical poetry is probably the simplest description that can be attached to this book. It contains an image of what the author considers the attributes of humankind. Segments of the image which consist of the Intellect, the Soul, the Physical, the Emotions, the Conscious, and the Body, have associative poetry as if each segment is speaking. Many of the poems are thought provoking, and to assist in the thinking process, there is photography that relates to the poetry as well as a section after each poem for personal comments or notes. The final section is written in prose to give...

"VIENNA bread is not now so popular in this country as it was a few years ago, and the reason for this probably is that the public knows now what to expect when it asks for this article. You can humbug the great British public for a time, but sooner or later - generally sooner - it (like your sins) finds you out.. The British public has found that the Vienna bread it has been buying generally has been a delusion and a snare, and to a great extent it steers clear of it now. It is unfortunate that the British baker should lose any chance of turning an honest penny, but when we say that in many...

In poem after poem in his excellent, often chilling, often precisely beautiful collection, Soft Water, Charles Scott demonstrates he's the kind of writer for whom authenticity is both an event of "what happened" and the language that is sought and found to render it. He gets things right. From the outset, his book establishes a quality of truth-telling about Vietnam: "After everything had settled, it was quiet/because there were no wounded, /everyone that was hurt/was dead." That he never raises his voice about sensational moments is part of his authority. And his stateside poems, though...

Originally published in 1857, Charles Scott's Analogy of Ancient Craft Masonry to Natural and Revealed Religion offers some insight into the inspiration found in Masonic Ritual from Christian traditions.

A first of its kind, this book maps out current academic approaches in higher education to second-person contemplative education, which addresses contemplative experience from an intersubjective perspective. Until recently, contemplative studies has emphasized a predominantly first-person standpoint, but the expansion and embrace of second-person methods provides a distinctive learning context in which collective wisdom and shared learning can begin to emerge from dialogue among students and groups in the classroom. The contributors to this volume, leading researchers and practitioners from a...
