  • New Non-Fiction July–December 2012 World Today
    FLORIS BOOKS New Non-fiction July–December 2012 Taking Appearance Seriously Philosophy The Dynamic Way of Seeing in Goethe and European Thought HENRI BORTOFT The history of western metaphysics from Plato onwards is dominated by the dualism of being and appearance. What something really is (its true being) is believed to be hidden behind the 'mere appearances' through which it manifests. Twentieth-century European thinkers radically overturned this way of thinking. 'Appearance' began to be taken seriously, with the observer participating in the dynamic event of perception. In this important book, Henri Bortoft guides us through this dynamic way of seeing, exploring issues including how we distinguish things, how we find meaning, and the relationship between thought and words. A renowned thinker explores a dynamic Expanding the scope of his previous book, The Wholeness of Nature, Bortoft shows how Goethean insights combine with this way of seeing and experiencing dynamic way of seeing in continental philosophy, to offer an actively experienced 'life of meaning'. Henri Bortoft is a physicist with an interest This book will be of interest to in the history of science and continental anyone who wants to understand the philosophy. He is the author of the well-received book, The Wholeness of Nature: Goethe's contribution and wider implications Also by Henri Bortoft: of modern European thought in the Way of Science (Floris Books, 1996, 2005). world today. 978-086315-238-2 paperback | £20.00 234 x 156 mm | b/w illustrations | 208 pp | 978-086315-927-5

  • Becoming a Member of the General Anthroposophical Society
    Becoming a member of the General Anthroposophical Society “Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe.” Rudolf Steiner: Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts, GA 26, Rudolf Steiner Press, London 1999 Dear Reader! It is likely not by accident that you came to be reading this booklet, and we hope that you find in it a welcome introduction to the Anthroposophical Society as initiated by Rudolf Steiner. This booklet is intended to serve as a kind of overview of and roadmap for the many aspects of the Society. With the Anthroposophical Society at the heart, Anthroposophy and its practices around the world extend far beyond the Society itself. We hope you will consider becoming a member and are interested in exploring what Anthroposophy has to offer you in your own path of development. Anthroposophy recognizes that each individual human is a physical, soul and spiritual being, and that we each find meaning and purpose through relationships to each other, to the world around us, and to the wider universe. Rudolf Steiner’s life achievement is that through Anthroposophy as a scientific method of acquiring knowledge, the reality of a spiritual world and its connection to the evolution of the human being can be known. Further, there are many practical initiatives based on a distinct understanding of people and the world through Anthroposophy as researched and made known by Rudolf Steiner. These include among others: Waldorf education, biodynamic agriculture, natural cosmetics, values-based work with economics, organic architecture, and anthroposophical medicine. Within the Anthroposophical Society there are numerous paths and levels of commitment, which you are free to explore and choose based upon your own interests and capacities.

  • Organic Revolutionary a Memoir of the Movement for Real Food, Planetary Healing, and Human Liberation
    Organic Revolutionary a memoir of the Movement for Real Food, planetary healING, and human liberation GRACE GERSHUNY 12 Organic Revolutionary markets in 1994, when USDA began to track them, to 8,268 in 2014. There is even a weekly farmers market held in the USDA parking lot in Washington, DC.2 The Roots of the True Organic Vision To see how this vision grew into the modern organic movement it may be helpful to review American and European history with this topic in mind. While I read many of the ‘classics’ of organic thought during my early years in Vermont, I didn’t fit the pieces together until my involve- ment deepened and I began teaching about the subject. The excursion that follows offers my own interpretation and selection of events and actors that has helped me to place my own experience in its historical context. Many people assume that the organic movement had its start with Rachel Carson and the environmental movement of the sixties that inspired farmers to “just say no” to pesticides. The activist uprisings of the 1960s certainly gave rise to the modern organic movement, but the birth of what became known as organic farming really occurred in response to the first widespread use of synthetic fertilizers in the early part of the 20th century. Most of the foundational organic innovators came from Europe, where concerns about the effects of using synthesized chemicals to fertilize crops sprouted a short time after they started being promoted. Around the end of World War I the munitions manufacturers found themselves with large stockpiles of explosives on hand.

ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE RECOMMENDATION FOR DISPOSITION APPEARANCE: Messrs. Donald Schramm and Glenn Guttman of Rieff, Schramm & Kanter on behalf of the (hereinafter the “applicant”). SYNOPSIS: This proceeding raises the following issues: first, whether applicant qualifies as: (a) “religious society” whose property is subject to exemption under Section 15-40 of the Property Tax Code, 35 ILCS 200/1-1 et seq. (hereinafter the “Code”) if used for appropriate purposes; or; (b) a “school” within the meaning of Section 15-35 of the Code; or, (c) an “institution of public charity within the meaning of Section 15-65(a) of the Code; and, second, whether real estate identified by Cook County Parcel Index Number 14-18-313-003 (hereinafter the "subject property") was used for the exempt purposes specified in Sections 15-35, 15-40 and/or 15-65 during any part of the 1998 assessment year. The underlying controversy arises as follows: 1 Applicant filed an Real Estate Tax Exemption Complaint with the Cook County Board of Review (hereinafter the “Board”) on June 30, 1999. The Board reviewed applicant’s complaint and recommended to the Illinois Department of Revenue (hereinafter the "Department") that the requested exemption be denied on grounds of insufficient evidence. The Department then issued its initial determination in this matter, which found that the subject property was not in exempt ownership and not in exempt use, on January 13, 2000.
