“C. S. Lewis is the ideal persuader for the half-convinced, for the good man who would like to be a Christian but finds his intellect getting in the way.”—Anthony Burgess, New York Times Book ReviewA beautiful keepsake edition of the revered spiritual classic from one of the greatest writers and thinkers of the twentieth century whose insights continue to influence us today.Our moral consciousness and moral judgements are proof to the human race that a moral being exists—God.Mere Christianity makes available to both believers and nonbelievers C. S. Lewis’s powerful and rational argument for the Christian faith. Recognized as one of the most important Christian books of the twentieth century, Mere Christianity brings together Lewis’ legendary broadcast talks during World War II, in which he explored the core beliefs of Christianity—timeless topics that continue to engage us—right and wrong, human nature, morality, marriage, sin, forgiveness, faith, hope, generosity, and kindness.Now in a deluxe edition featuring gilded pages, C. S. Lewis’s brilliant and enduring work remains fresh and vital for readers today.

Mere Christianity (Deluxe Edition)

'Has the power to change the way you look at the world' Steven Bartlett'The heir to Oliver Sacks' David BaddielA FINANCIAL TIMESBEST BOOK OF 2024AN INDEPENDENTBOOK OF THE MONTHGluttony. Greed. Sloth. Pride. Envy. Lust. Anger.These are the seven deadly sins, the vices of humankind that define immorality, the roots of all evil in the world. Or so some believe.But do these sins really represent moral failings, or are they simply human functions that aid us? Are they just the result of how our bodies, psyches, and brains in particular, are wired?This new book by Dr Guy Leschziner, a professor of neurology and sleep medicine, explores the underlying nature of the seven deadly sins, their neuroscientific and psychological basis, their origin in our genes and crucially how certain medical disorders give rise to them.Drawing on his clinical practice, we meet individuals whose physical and psychological conditions have given rise to these sins, where brain injury or other experiences have sparked 'immoral' actions. He explores how illness can simply expose what lies within us and investigates how the origins of these traits lie in evolutionary imperatives to preserve the wellbeing of the tribe. Perhaps, he suggests, these character traits are less of a moral question and more biological, which raises fundamental issues of responsibility and blame in the face of 'sin'.Combining cutting-edge science placed in the context of real-life experience with patients, the book reexamines where the boundaries between normal human nature, pathology and sin are drawn. And, most importantly, whether these hard-wired traits truly represent sin, or simply the intensity of our intrinsic desire to survive and thrive.

The Biology of Being Human

Seven Deadly Sins

From&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author Sarah McCoy—a spellbinding novel based on a true story: a beautiful young movie star of Hollywood’s Golden Age gives up her bright career to become a nun.In 1969, twenty-three-year-old starlet Lori Lovely, the apple of Hollywood’s eye, shocks the world by ditching a promising film career to take vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience as a Benedictine nun. Gossip columnists and scandal sheets can’t get enough of the story. Why would such a beautiful girl take the veil? Was she hiding from someone? Did it have anything to do with her costar, heartthrob singer Lucas Wesley?In 1990, Lu Tibbott is under the gun to complete her senior thesis in modern American history. Instead of spending weeks in dusty archives, Lu decides to dig into a true twentieth-century mystery and write about her aunt Lori, now the Mother Abbess at a cloistered convent in rural New England. Biographers, journalists, and media types have long speculated about her aunt Lori’s sudden departure from Hollywood. Mother Lori, however, has refused all requests for interviews—until Lu arrives at the abbey with a tape recorder in hand. To her delight, Mother Lori announces she’s finally ready to talk...but only if Lu is truly ready to listen.Lu is shocked to discover that the story of Lori Lovely’s rise in Hollywood was far more tumultuous than she’d ever expected, a fairy tale twisting with ambition, unforeseen alliances, forbidden love, and secrets. What began as a history thesis now threatens to upend all their lives with its unexpected truths, especially as the media gets wind of Lu’s project and begins to ask…Whatever happened to Lori Lovely?

A Journal

A Prayer a Day

The first American Pope’s words for the world reveal themes to his leadership: peace, hope, and unity."I would like this greeting of peace to resound in your hearts, in your families, among all people, wherever they may be, in every nation and throughout the world. Peace be with you!"With his first public appearance before the world, Pope Leo XIV expressed hope for an “unarmed and disarming” peace. Collected in this beautiful edition are the sermons and speeches Pope Leo XIV has delivered since his May 8, 2025, election, including: <ul><li>his First Apostolic blessing, delivered to the Central Loggia of the Vatican Basilica</li><li>“Called to Be a Light of Hope,” his video message to the young people of Chicago and the whole world</li><li>“The compass of natural law,” his Address to Members of the International Inter-Parliamentary Union</li><li>a special preface addressing U.S. readers</li><li>and more.</li></ul> These first addresses convey some of Pope Leo XIV’s vision for the future: the primacy of God, communion in the Church, and the pursuit of peace. His countless calls for reconciliation are addressed not only to politics, but to the heart of every person: “Peace begins with each of us: from the way we look at others, listen to others, speak about others.” He shows us that unity is possible, and it begins in our hearts.In his own words, Pope Leo XIV welcomes us all into communion and calls us to act to protect our shared humanity and our precious home.

My Words to the Church and to the World

Peace Be with You!

This volume is dedicated to an in depth examination of the complex and often tumultuous history of the Catholic Church's relationship with two significant political entities: firstly, the Independent State of Croatia, a fascist puppet state created by Italy and Germany in Yugoslavia during the Second World War; and secondly, Communist Yugoslavia, which emerged from the civil war and as a result of the arrival of the Soviet Red Army in Yugoslavia. In both cases, the Catholic Church faced totalitarian regimes whose attitudes towards the Church were markedly different. The Ustasha, the extreme Croatian nationalist movement that governed wartime Croatia, regarded Catholicism as the cornerstone of their national identity. Conversely, the communists would not accept the presence of an organised religious structure that remained independent of their control and, moreover, possessed an international character and backing.

Despite the widespread popularity of body modification, this study is the first to provide a comparative analysis of Catholic and Orthodox perspectives on tattoos and piercings.

By examining historical, doctrinal, and ethical debates, the book explores scriptural interpretations, official Church teachings, and theological arguments. It also considers cultural and pastoral dimensions, shedding light on a controversial yet relevant issue in contemporary Christianity. As a comparative study, it not only deepens the understanding of Catholic and Orthodox traditions but also fosters interfaith and intercultural dialogue, promoting communication and mutual respect. By bridging historical perspectives with modern practice, this research offers valuable insights for theologians, scholars, and readers interested in an intersectional study of faith, identity, and personal expression.

Tattooed and/or Pierced Christians?

'BOLD AND BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN' Tom Holland 'MY GOD, THIS BOOK IS NEEDED. HISTORY HAS NEVER SEEMED MORE ALIVE...' Russell T Davies A gripping new journey through ancient history, uncovering the origins of homophobia and the untold stories of those who dared to love. In the early days of ancient Greece, queer love was celebrated. The most famous warrior in antiquity loved another man, the poet whose lyrics were memorised by philosophers and kings sang of her desire for women. Men could swear oaths of undying love and live out the rest of their lives together in peace. What fragments survive of this ancient world all tell us one thing: it was not a sin to be queer. In this extraordinary book, Harry Tanner sets out on a journey to discover the origins of homophobia in the West. He follows the traces of this sinister idea as it swept across the ancient Mediterranean. Wherever he discovers the roots of homophobia taking hold, Tanner finds a confluence of crises mirrored across the centuries. Inequality, fear and an obsession with self-control - this is how societies turn on their queer citizens, time and time again, since the dawn of history. This is a powerful story that draws on the rich world of the ancients to reveal how homophobia infected Western religion and ideology - the consequences of which we are still living with today - and to that end how we can move forward and resist homophobia in the future.

SHORTLISTED FOR FOYLES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025

The Queer Thing About Sin

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Pope Francis originally intended this exceptional memoir to appear only after his death, but the needs of our times and the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope moved him to make this precious legacy available sooner. Now, the book stands as his testament; the spiritual, faith-filled, as well as moral, social, and civic legacy that he envisioned and left for the benefit of all the men and women of the world. “Hope vividly recreates the colorful world where the young Jorge Mario Bergoglio grew up.”—The New York Times Hope is the first autobiography in history ever to be published by a Pope. Written over six years, this complete autobiography starts in the early years of the twentieth century, with Pope Francis’s Italian roots and his ancestors’ courageous migration to Latin America, continuing through his childhood, the enthusiasms and preoccupations of his youth, his vocation, adult life, and the whole of his papacy up to the present day. In recounting his memories with intimate narrative force (not forgetting his own personal passions), Pope Francis deals unsparingly with some of the crucial moments of his papacy and writes candidly, fearlessly, and prophetically about some of the most important and controversial questions of our present times: war and peace (including the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East), migration, environmental crisis, social policy, the position of women, sexuality, technological developments, the future of the Church and of religion in general. Hope includes a wealth of revelations, anecdotes, and illuminating thoughts. It is a thrilling and very human memoir, moving and sometimes funny, which represents the “story of a life” and, at the same time, a touching moral and spiritual testament that will fascinate readers throughout the world and will be Pope Francis’s legacy of hope for future generations. The book is enhanced by remarkable photographs, including private and unpublished material made personally available by Pope Francis himself.

The Autobiography

Hope

A nation on the cusp of war. A king ousted from his capital by the people. A society on the brink of collapse. From Jonathan Healey comes a gripping history about the months that sent England into civil war 'An old-fashioned Westminster thriller . . . You could hardly find a more engrossing or exciting story' DOMINIC SANDBROOK, SUNDAY TIMES 'A rollicking history, packed with fire and excitement *****' DANIEL BROOKS, TELEGRAPH 'The House of Cards-ish drama remains gripping to the last' LITERARY REVIEW After years of tension between a king and his people, in 1641 England reaches a semblance of peace. Armies have disbanded, legislation has passed to ensure Parliament will continue to sit, and the people are tentatively optimistic. Radical politicians congratulate themselves on a stunning political victory. Royal servants are coming to accept an altered future. Then comes winter. With it, chaos, protests, political deadlock, and eventually a remarkable attempt by King Charles I to destroy his opponents. On 4 January 1642 Charles marches on the small riverside city of Westminster at the head of an army, seeking to arrest five Members of Parliament. In doing so, he sets in motion a series of events that will lead to bloodshed and war, changing a nation forever. Why did the English Civil War break out? The Blood in Winter tells the story of an English people's great political awakening, and of a nation that splintered into bloodshed at a terrifying speed. Jonathan Healey recreates the claustrophobic atmosphere of the day, with rowdy protestors in the streets and London blanketed in coal smoke. It is a story of remarkable but flawed characters, all faced with unpalatable choices, and a frightening picture of a society in profound distress.

The thrilling story of England's descent into civil war - 'packed with fire and excitement' TELEGRAPH

The Blood in Winter

Against Landlords overturns the stale assumptions and YIMBY delusions as to why housing in the UK is so poor, and why rent is so high. Bano lays the blame squarely at the feet of landlordism, which boosts house prices and makes tenancy unaffordable. Furthermore, building more housing is not the solution. It is firstly a problem of the law, and legal reforms must sweep away the rot at the heart of the housing crisis and British political life.
