Prayer of the World
Prayer of the World opens a window into an astonishingly beautiful world, showing life as a vast prayer in which we live and breathe. Through poetry and luminous photographs, it brings forth the voices of earth, sea, sky, and the entire web of life. From star fire to water’s blue stillness, from eagle’s soaring flight to canary’s solemn teaching comes the plea: “Join the prayer; the web is greatly strained.” Kathleen Maia and Ken traveled to many sites in the United States and beyond—she with her pen and notebook, and he with his camera. As their pilgrimage continued, they realized that the poetry and photography together created a stunning whole, a vibrant expression of Earth’s life and Earth’s plea: “Give back to the web; add your voice to the song. Join the Prayer of the World.” As alarm, anxiety, and upheaval escalate across the globe, Prayer of the World raises not only Earth’s lament, but also Earth’s great hope: “All is connected in a living breathing web…the living pulse of energy that flows through all creation—each pulse a prayer.” To learn more about Prayer of the World visit: www.prayeroftheworld.org

Faxed
Faxed is the first history of the facsimile machine—the most famous recent example of a tool made obsolete by relentless technological innovation. Jonathan Coopersmith recounts the multigenerational, multinational history of that device from its origins to its workplace glory days, in the process revealing how it helped create the accelerated communications, information flow, and vibrant visual culture that characterize our contemporary world.

Almost 150 years passed between the fax’s invention in England and its widespread ado...

Everyday Prophets
I n this Lecture, Margery Post Abbott explores the interplay between faith and action, drawing on her wide range of experiences as a scholar, activist, sailor and Quaker. Taking an ethical stance, acting on the concern for justice and the yearning for peace, does much to open hearts. Yet some activists get burnt out or caught up in the tangle of power or pride, becoming what they were resisting. Friends have always asserted that there is a source of strength and guidance that, paraphrasing William Penn, changes the human heart so that each person might better change the world. is Spirit fuels the work for which Friends are most known. Faithfulness to the Inward Guide lifts us free of the d...
Rolling Meadows
Rolling Meadows began as one man's vision for an affordable housing development for young families in the years following World War II. He purchased land in a small corner of Chicagoland's Palatine Township for the development--land rich with rolling fields. The aptly named "Project Rolling Meadows" grew quickly, but the sense of community pride and neighborly spirit grew even faster. With the determination of its residents, Rolling Meadows became an official city on February 26, 1955, just a few years after the first home was constructed. Rolling Meadows is a city built by the strength and dedication of its residents. If it were not for its continuing vision of an American hometown that offers the best in civil and community services, then Rolling Meadows would be nothing more than an unincorporated housing development today.
