A few million years ago, our ancestors came down from the trees and began to stand upright, freeing our hands to create tools and our minds to grapple with the world around us. Leonard Mlodinow takes us on a passionate and inspiring tour through the exciting history of human progress and the key events in the development of science. In the process, he presents a fascinating new look at the unique characteristics of our species and our society that helped propel us from stone tools to written language and through the birth of chemistry, biology, and modern physics to today’s technological world. Along the way he explores the cultural conditions that influenced scientific thought through the ages and the colorful personalities of some of the great philosophers, scientists, and thinkers: Galileo, who preferred painting and poetry to medicine and dropped out of university; Isaac Newton, who stuck needlelike bodkins into his eyes to better understand changes in light and color; and Antoine Lavoisier, who drank nothing but milk for two weeks to examine its effects on his body. Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, Werner Heisenberg, and many lesser-known but equally brilliant minds also populate these pages, each of their stories showing how much of human achievement can be attributed to the stubborn pursuit of simple questions (why? how?), bravely asked. The Upright Thinkers is a book for science lovers and for anyone interested in creative thinking and in our ongoing quest to understand our world. At once deeply informed, accessible, and infused with the author’s trademark wit, this insightful work is a stunning tribute to humanity’s intellectual curiosity. (With black-and-white illustrations throughout.)

An upside-down view of an upright life. If you've spent any time studying Jesus' teachings, you may have noticed that they seem a little...backward: The last will be first; in giving we receive; there is strength in weakness, the way to life is through death. But what does it all really mean? With wisdom and wit, Gracie Malone shows you just what walking with God looks like as she uncovers the path to a fresh faith.

Living for God: Seven Pillars to a Virtuous Lifestyle is a call to live upright in the eyes of God. Today many Christians are seeking their own pathways in life, not demonstrating God's glory and majesty among the nations. As Christians, our light should shine among the world that others see our good works and give our Father in Heaven the glory (see Matthew 5:16). But instead, our light is being overshadowed by selfish ambitionlooking more and more like the rest of the crowd. God is calling his people to come back into a covenant relationship with him that they might demonstrate his holiness through moral and upright living for Him. In Living for God, the author imparts seven moral character principles for living virtuously in the eyes of God. These seven principles include: Trust (in God) Love Submission A Pure Heart Obedience Patience Humility
