Pat and Toms electrifying first encounter, falling in love. That love affair that sparked behind the scenes was relatively short lived but was a turning point from being a shy quiet girl to running a business herself. Their lives criss- crossed through to the end providing an end to a glorious living. Pat became a young farm widow who knew about farm life and experienced living a life alone and struggles to raise four children. Financial hardships with farm life were overcome so the farmland could be salvaged for her family. This is what her husband had always worried about. Success was her reward for being passionate, prepared and persistent. The farm land was taken over by her children and Pat decided to work in Medicine Hat for a living. This was very hard because she gave up the lifestyle she loved so much. Tears were shed but her heart danced for joy to see her children prosper. In this anticipated memoir, Pat paints a portrait of growing up in Saskatchewan, meeting her life long love in Alberta, her decision to be a farm widow, the importance of faith, prayer and family and the unique joys and trials of life they loved so much. Trusting God moment by moment with concerns of her heart and she discovered the awesome power that prayer released in her life. With unparallel candor and wit Pat shares never-before told stories of what it was like to raise four children alone in rural Alberta. Pat recounts with warmth and grace the surprising reliable lessons she learned in raising the children and surviving in this eye-opening memoir for single parents everywhere. Her book should inspire others to overcome struggles and have a zest for life. Women can do it. Her book explains that God smoothed her path, calmed the storms, helped her and all she cared about to be safe and even made her way simple when she asked God to carry the complexities of life for her. These things did not just happen. Not without prayer. The family that prays together, stays together. Her book may inspire others to continue with farm life if your heart desires. Anyone can do it...

The Essence of Truth must count as one of Heidegger's most important works, for nowhere else does he give a comparably thorough explanation of what is arguably the most fundamental and abiding theme of his entire philosophy, namely the difference between truth as the "unhiddenness of beings" and truth as the "correctness of propositions". For Heidegger, it is by neglecting the former primordial concept of truth in favor of the latter derivative concept that Western philosophy, beginning already with Plato, took off on its "metaphysical" course towards the bankruptcy of the present day. This first ever translation into English consists of a lecture course delivered by Heidegger at the University of Freiburg in 1931-32. Part One of the course provides a detailed analysis of Plato's allegory of the cave in the Republic, while Part Two gives a detailed exegesis and interpretation of a central section of Plato's Theaetetus, and is essential for the full understanding of his later well-known essay Plato's Doctrine of Truth. As always with Heidegger's writings on the Greeks, the point of his interpretative method is to bring to light the original meaning of philosophical concepts, especially to free up these concepts to their intrinsic power.

Nicola should never have stepped out to buy that pack of cigarettes because the man she discovers in her living room when she returns is not the adorable, straightforward, devoted Jonathan with whom she has been sharing her life and flat for the past six years. That Jonathan would never have simply, unilaterally, decided that she should, as he abruptly put it, 'move out.' So a shocked, grief-stricken Nicola packs her bags and sets out bravely on the bumpy course that will take her fro the hellish end of an affair to the essence of the thing. With her comic timing and tender vision the brilliant Madeleine St John, author of The Women in Black, takes us into the changing nature of the human heart.
