Star Maker is a science fiction novel by Olaf Stapledon, published in 1937. The book describes a history of life in the universe, dwarfing in scale Stapledon's previous book, Last and First Men (1930), a history of the human species over two billion years. Star Maker tackles philosophical themes such as the essence of life, of birth, decay and death, and the relationship between creation and creator. A pervading theme is that of progressive unity within and between different civilizations. Some of the elements and themes briefly discussed prefigure later fiction concerning genetic engineering and alien life forms. Arthur C. Clarke considered Star Maker to be one of the finest works of science fiction ever written. A single human narrator from England is transported out of his body via unexplained means. He realizes he is able to explore space and other planets. After exploring a civilization on another planet in our galaxy at a level of development similar to our own that existed millions of years ago thousands of light years from Earth (the "Other Earth") in some detail, his mind merges with that of one of its inhabitants, and as they travel together, they are joined by still more minds or group-minds. This snowballing process is paralleled by the expansion of the book's scale, describing more and more planets in less and less detail. The disembodied travelers encounter many ideas that are interesting from both science-fictional and philosophical points of view. These include the first known instance of what is now called the Dyson sphere; a reference to a scenario closely predicting the later zoo hypothesis or Star Trek's Prime Directive; many imaginative descriptions of species, civilizations and methods of warfare; descriptions of the Multiverse; and the idea that the stars and even pre-galactic nebulae are intelligent beings, operating on vast time scales.

<p>Gerald Durrell w charakterystyczny dla siebie niezwykle dowcipny sposób opowiada o początkach Fundacji, mającej na celu wspieranie ochrony dzikich zwierząt. Poczucie humoru autora jak zwykle dalekie jest od typowo brytyjskiej powściągliwości – czytelnik narażony będzie niewątpliwie na bóle międzyżebrowe ze śmiechu. Będzie miał okazję przeczytać o przystojnych pracownikach zoo, którzy powodują złamane serca, złośliwych szympansach, pięknych damach zbierających datki, o tym jak placki z dodatkiem anyżu działają na człekokształtne, a także o tym, że tytułowa gereza, czyli rzadki gatunek afrykańskich małp, często ma żołądek tak duży, że wraz z zawartością wynosi ćwierć jej wagi.</p> <p>Jako dyrektor ogrodu zoologicznego na wyspie Jersey, mimo swojego zaangażowania i pasji, Durrell był wciąż nękany przez kłopoty finansowe: „(…)Zgodnie z moim pierwotnym planem, z chwilą gdy zoo stanie się samowystarczalne, zamierzałem przekształcić je w fundację, ale to jest niemożliwe z tak ogromnym długiem. Jimmy w pełni się z tym zgodził i na chwilę pogrążył w zadumie. - Cóż, da się zrobić tylko jedno - rzekł na koniec - a mianowicie zwrócić się z apelem do społeczeństwa”. W zabawny, ale i bardzo rozczulający sposób autor opisuje rezultaty tego apelu i dalsze losy Fundacji, która istnieje do dziś.</p>

One day, a group of students and their teacher travel to a zoo safari park to learn all about the different animals. During a fun jeep ride around the park, the guide shares fascinating information about lions, rhinoceroses, elephants, buffalo, and more, pointing out distinctive characteristics about each animal's body and how those qualities make the animals special. Along the way, the children start to notice how their differences in appearance make each of them special too. Their teacher helps them reflect on their own body image and teaches them how they were created uniquely in God's image. Because bodies can be confusing and sometimes embarrassing to children, Justin and Lindsey Holcomb wrote God Made Me in His Image for parents to use in helping their kids understand how God made their bodies in his image. Parents and caregivers can use this powerful book, illustrated by Trish Mahoney, to help children understand their feelings about their bodies and help them accept them by highlighting God's loving design of our individual physical characteristics. God Made Me in His Image is part of the God Made Me series which equips parents to have important, impactful conversations with their children, helping them to grow in understanding of God, themselves, and others. Each book in the series contains a special section just for parents and caregivers that provides biblical guidance and offers additional information and resources for talking about the topic addressed in the story.
