Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 2,846
England, 1914. The world is at war. Captain Hastings, injured and shaken, is invited to Styles Court to recover. It’s a grand old country house - the family home of his old friend - and a perfect haven. Or so it seems. But in the blistering summer heat, trouble is afoot. Simmering tensions are tearing the family apart, and it all comes to a head in the most horrifying way.

I thoroughly enjoyed this rendition. I just listened to the audiobook, so to hear to radio play allowed me to enjoy to story without worrying about solving it

Linguists have been studying Black English as a speech variety for years, arguing to the public that it is different from Standard English, not a degradation of it. Yet false assumptions and controversies still swirl around what it means to speak and sound "Black." In his first book devoted solely to the form, structure, and development of Black English, John McWhorter clearly explains its fundamentals and rich history while carefully examining the cultural, educational, and political issues that have undermined recognition of this transformative, empowering dialect.

Learned a lot
Revisado: 09-02-23
I learned a lot about Black English, and I have a new appreciation of the language, so much so that I want to learn it now. I love learning about languages, and this is one very fascinating language with its own grammar distinct from English. It is not broken. It is not a sign of classlessness. It is a sophisticated language in its own right.

In this astute mix of cultural critique and biblical studies, John H. Walton presents and defends 20 propositions supporting a literary and theological understanding of Genesis 1 within the context of the ancient Near Eastern world and unpacks its implications for our modern scientific understanding of origins.

I learned a lot about Genesis 1 on this book and how it is not meant to be taken literally as the ancient Hebrews would not have understood it as such. I looked forward to consuming more books by this author

UnClobber reexamines what the Bible says (and does not say) about homosexuality in such a way that breathes fresh life into outdated and inaccurate assumptions and interpretations.

These wide-ranging essays - on many individual political, economic, cultural, and legal issues - have as a recurring, underlying theme the decline of the values and institutions that have sustained and advanced American society for more than two centuries. This decline has been more than erosion. It has, in many cases, been a deliberate dismantling of American values and institutions by people convinced that their superior wisdom and virtue must override both the traditions of the country and the will of the people.
