\"EO Wilson suggested that we had to think about the world as a place that we share. And he said: Look, we always seem to need a lot of stuff. So why don't we leave half the earth to the natural environment and allow all the natural processes that we need, and then we use the other half for ourselves. And it's an interesting concept because it says to economists and to the capitalist system: you cannot use all of it. You have to leave half of it to allow the systems to produce clean air, clean water, and allow for biodiversity and ecosystems to restore themselves.\"

\"And what's very interesting is that at the moment there is this mass movement of people to our cities, making them megacities. And so we are actually depopulating the rural areas. So the very strange thing is that the Earth, it's becoming a wilder place. And therefore there are so many opportunities where people are leaving to go to the big cities where we can rewild, we can reforest, and we can bring back nature to actually keep those services that we absolutely rely on.We are so powerful as a planetary species, not individually, but collectively, that we have had that impact, that we have changed the geological destiny of the planet through changing the environment, changing the climate, and changing the evolutionary destiny - because we're already causing lots of extinctions - but also lots of new organisms to be evolving. And we are creating them in labs as well.\"

To save the planet you need to change the people that live on the planet. Specifically, people need to change in and of themselves, by themselves. The change needs to be motivated by a different understanding of who and what they are and what it means to be a human being in the world.

1Union and Communion - or Thoughts on the Song of Solomon

By J. Hudson Taylor

In the power of an evident unction from the Holy One, he has been enabled herein to unfold in simplest language the deep truth of the believer's personal union with the Lord, which under symbol and imagery is the subject of The Song of Songs.

5Our American Cousin (Dramatic Reading)

By Tom Taylor

Our American Cousin is an 1858 three-act play by English playwright Tom Taylor. The play is a farce whose plot is based on the introduction of an awkward, boorish, but honest American, Asa Trenchard, to his aristocratic English relatives when he goes to England to claim the family estate. . . . Although the play achieved great renown during its first few years and remained very popular throughout the second half of the 19th century, it is best remembered as the play U.S. President Abraham Lincoln was attending in Ford's Theatre when he was assassinated by actor and Confederate sympathizer John Wilkes Booth on April 14, 1865. - Summary by Wikipedia<br> <br> <b>Cast</b><br> Narrator: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8164">KHand</a><br> Asa Trenchard: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/9647">Joseph Tabler</a><br> Florence Trenchard: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6281">Beth Thomas</a><br> Lord Dundreary: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8164">Rob Board</a><br> Sir Edward Trenchard: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/9929">Zames Curran</a><br> Mr. Coyle: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8799">Peter Tucker</a><br> Mary Meredith: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6548">Kristin Gjerløw</a><br> Mr. Binny: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6754">ToddHW</a><br> Abel Murcott: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10123">Scott Bennett</a><br> Mrs. Mountchessington: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/3816">Bev J Stevens</a><br> Georgina Mountchessington: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/7026">Michele Eaton</a><br> Augusta Mountchessington: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8051">Maria Kasper</a><br> Mr. Buddicombe: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10193">Howard Watts</a><br> Harry Vernon: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10143">TenorBoy</a><br> John Wickens: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/10463">VfkaBT</a><br> Captain De Boots: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6065">David Olson</a><br> Sharpe: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/9001">Mary Kay</a><br> Skillet: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/9508">Jessie Yun</a><br> <b>Edited by: <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8164">Rob Board</a></b><br> <br>Proof-listened by <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/9508">Jessie Yun</a> and <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/6281">Beth Thomas</a>.<br> Project coordinated by <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8425">Larry Wilson</a> and <a href="https://librivox.org/reader/8164">Rob Board</a>.

Written by a Church of England clergyman in the time of Cromwell, this work is praised for both its style and content. Taylor's work was much admired by John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, for its devotional quality; and by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Thomas de Quincey, and Edmund Gosse for its literary qualities.<br /><br /><i>Holy Dying</i> is meant to instruct the reader in the "means and instruments" of preparing for a blessed death, written in a time when death was a constant companion to life and not to be encountered without being ready for it. It assumes illness and a death-bed, with recommended meditations and prayers for the sick, the family, and the clergyman attending to the dying one. (Summary by TriciaG, with help from Wikipedia)

Jefferys Taylor was born in 1792 in Suffolk, England. He became apprenticed to his father who was an engraver and invented a special ruling machine for engravers but went on to emulate his mother who was a children's writer. His books include favourites like Harry's Holliday or the Doings of One Who had Nothing to Do and The Little Historians. <br><br>This book "Aesop in Rhyme" published in 1820, contains 58 of Aesop's Fables which he has retold in verse as well as 13 original fables of his own. Each is illustrated with an engraving which though uncredited he probably drew himself. He died in 1853. (Summary by Noel Badrian)

18On the Red Staircase

By Mary Imlay Taylor

"“The Czarevitch Ivan is said to be indifferent to the high office,” I replied, in a low tone; “he is blind.” “Ay, and deformed!” said the Russian, promptly. “Yet will the people of Russia demand the recognition of primogeniture. Court intrigues cannot prevail. What a flimsy pretext was this election! The States-General of Russia elected Michael Romanof; the Czar Shuisky fell because he was elected by Moscow alone; and this is not the Moscovite State, but the rabble of the city, and the retainers of the boyars! The Miloslavskys are down to-day, but who dares to predict for to-morrow?”" A fictional account of the turmoil following the death of Czar Alexis, when Russians were forced to choose between the traditional rule of primogeniture, in the form of the deficient Ivan, and his more suitable but younger half-brother, Peter. - Summary by LynneT

20Eyes and No Eyes and Other Stories

By John Aikin, Anna Laetitia Barbauld, Jane Marcet and Jane Taylor

Whatever will stimulate the observing tendencies of the young cannot but be of value to them. "Eyes and No Eyes" does this in a delightful way. The story is so natural that the child is wrapped up in it, and so it makes a deep impress upon him. Much less could be accomplished by simply telling him to observe, or lecturing upon the value of keeping one's eyes open. But when the reader sees how much more William gets out of his walk than Robert, and what marvellous things exist everywhere if one is on the lookout for them, he is himself incited to examine with greater care the many more or less ordinary things he has neglected heretofore. William and Robert become very real individuals to the child, and there is no doubt which of them he will choose to emulate. The author relies upon the force of concrete example to determine the conduct of children, and this is certainly sound in theory and endorsed by experience. Two of the stories are written by a brother-sister team of John Aikin and Jane Barbauld and are from their multi-volume work on "The Art of Seeing". Jane Marcet has also written many scientific books. Best well known, however, is the author Jane Taylor who wrote the lyrics to "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"

Borden of Yale '09 is the inspiring biography of William Borden, a young American millionaire. During a trip around the world, Borden committed to become a missionary after seeing the need to share the gospel. While preparing at Yale and Princeton and while studying Arabic in Egypt, he impacted all those around him and used his money for various ministries. William Borden's life serves as an example of the difference one person can make in even a short life surrendered to God. - Summary by Aletheia Charis

It's the dawn of a new era with this first issue of The Thrill Book Volume 2, and the influential pulp magazine is back and twice as big as prior issues! This time we have the suspenseful gold mining mystery "Vanishing Gold", the taut spy thriller "The Seventh Glass", the third part of the globe-trotting spy story "Strasbourg Rose", and the first part to H. Bedord-Jones' swashbuckling adventure "The Opium Ship" to meet your pulpy needs. And if you are looking for something a little more weird or spooky, the suicide-tinged "When Ghosts Walked", the bizarre tale "The Bibulous Baby", and the hallucinatory mad ravings of "The Conqueror" should quell that particular hankering. All this and much more awaits those brave enough to take on the perils of the all-new, double-sized Thrill Book! - Summary by Ben Tucker

The first of two volumes telling the life story of Pastor Hsi, a Confucian scholar from Shanxi province in Northern China who became a Christian in the 1870s. Pastor Hsi grew up in a China now long gone, when the scholarly class to which he belonged held a leading place in society. He lived through tumultuous times of change in China, when the opium that enriched the pockets of Western countries brought widespread addiction and poverty while a multi-year drought brought famine, decimating the already weakened population. Into this scene of tragedy, two western men stepped, bringing with them food to help the poor and starving, seeds for planting when the rains returned, and news that The Supreme Ruler was not hidden behind the gates of the Temple of Heaven, reachable only by the Emperor once a year, but instead was reaching out to the people in love, seeking to reconcile them with Himself. Hsi's life had been one of searching. While trained as a Confucian, he found himself unable to reach the high ideals espoused by its maxims and regulations. He explored Taoism and Buddhism but found them filled with idols and superstitions which trapped the common people in darkness and uncertainty. Hsi knew his heart and bore his failings with inner shame, even while people honored him as a scholarly disciple of Confucius. Was there a power anywhere that could change Hsi from within? (Summary by MaryAnn)
