Perhaps there are already 100,000 books written about religion, and you only want to read one to be fully informed. If so, then you have paused at the right place Since the prehistoric dawn of humanity death has shadowed everyone's footsteps. Up until the current scientific era religion was the only defence, the comfort against oblivion offering a promise of new life or even immortality. The Geologic Model of Religion is a neutral study of this defence from its ancient beginnings, drawing upon archaeology, anthropology and comparative religion to clearly explain one of the most complex subjects known. From the study a new model emerges which: * Decomposes religion into its distinct worldview and afterlife paradigms... * Categorizes evidence of belief systems held by the prehistoric hunter-gatherers, culminating in the ancient Temples of Rebirth such as Gobekli Tepe * Concludes that spirituality began in the Fertile Crescent 11,000 years ago, spreading with the Neolithic revolution throughout the world * Shows why judgment in afterlife was the keystone in the emerging edifice of civilization, and how it enabled hierarchies overcoming Dunbar's number which limited village sizes * Overviews the interaction between science and religion and projects the ultimate fate of religion itself From the Neanderthal to Homo sapiens, Ancient Egypt to China, this new analysis of religion ranges much further than perhaps 100,000 prior works.
Navy "Blues": Chip Martinsen's Walk on Water Where 'Natural Blood' vs. 'Spiritual Blood' "Is There a Girl in Every Port?" The Sequel to The Scrip Road Storybook.
A gull chick running across Muriwai Beach. Cabbage trees at Lake Wainamu. Tyre tracks, tugs of war and tramping trips. Olaf Petersen produced an unrivalled photographic account of the people and natural world of Auckland's wild west coast. Nature Boy introduces readers to this remarkable photographer and the landscape he made his own. Olaf Petersen (1915-1994) grew up in Swanson and acquired his first camera aged eighteen in 1933. For the next fifty years this master of the Rolleiflex TLR and the Hasselblad 500 produced over 50,000 images charting the human impact on New Zealand's natural environment. In this book, essays by Shaun Higgins, Andrew Clifford and Kirstie Ross chronicle Petersen's methods and techniques, his relationship to the 'camera club' photographers and the emerging photographic avant-garde, and his links to the trampers and scientists who engaged with the natural world of the Waitakere coast. Those essays are framed by reflections from two life-long daughters of the west, Sarah Hillary and Sandra Coney. Throughout, almost a hundred of Petersen's evocative photographs provide a compelling visual narrative. This beautiful book, published to coincide with a major exhibition at Tamaki Paenga Hira Auckland War Memorial Museum, captures a seminal figure in twentieth-century New Zealand nature photography and the remarkable landscape he documented.
