Robert Carter Orden de los libros (cronológico)

Mnozí lidé věří, že vesmír, Země a život jsou výsledkem slepých přírodních procesů trvajících miliardy let, a že existuje množství vědeckých důkazů tuto myšlenku podporujících. Skutečnost je však taková, že málokdo se odváží podrobně prozkoumat důkazy a vyvodit z nich závěry. Místo toho se často spoléháme na „vědecké autority“, které nám tvrdí, že pouze ony znají pravdu. I když je evoluční světonázor široce oslavován, ne všichni vědci s ním souhlasí jako s platným vysvětlením našeho původu. Stále více vědců, kteří zkoumali dostupné fakta a teorie, dospívá k odlišným závěrům. Tyto názory byly sepsány a recenzovány kvalifikovanými odborníky, kteří nám v osmi klíčových oblastech nabízejí unikátní pohled na moderní vědu a kritické myšlení. Přestože evoluce a miliardy let dominují jako paradigma, nemají tak pevnou základnu, jak se mnozí domnívají. Tato otázka však není jen akademickým problémem pro intelektuály, ale zásadně ovlivňuje naše každodenní životy a hodnoty, které přisuzujeme sobě a ostatním. Je na nás, abychom si v této otázce udělali jasno.

This powerful book (illustrated in full colour) exposes the fatal flaws of evolutionary thinking. Like no other work that we are aware of, it is authored by nine Ph.D. scientists to produce a coordinated, coherent, powerful argument. All of the authors received their doctorates from similar secular universities as their evolutionary counterparts. Each is a specialist in a field relevant to the subject written about: Natural selection, origin of life, geology, genetics, radiometric dating, the fossil record, cosmology, and ethics. Evolution’s Achilles’ Heels directly demolishes the very pillars of the belief system that underpins our now-secular culture—evolutionary naturalism. It’s coupled with the Biblical command to reach the lost with the Bible’s Good News. In a nutshell, it’s a comprehensive outreach tool like no other. The nine Ph.D. scientists are Donald Batten, Robert Carter, David Catchpoole, John Hartnett, Mark Harwood, Jim Mason, Jonathan Sarfati, Emil Silvestru and Tasman Walker. Foreword by Carl Wieland and edited by Robert Carter.

A rich and evocative tale set in a mythic 15th century Britain, to rival the work of Bernard Cornwell. The Realm is poised for war. Its weak king - Hal, grandson of a usurper - is dominated by his beautiful wife and her lover. Against them stands Duke Richard of Ebor and his allies. The two sides are set on a bloody collision course...Gwydion is watching over the Realm. He has walked the land since before the time of the druids, since before the Slavers came to subdue the people. Gwydion was here when Arthur rode to war: then they called him 'Merlyn'. But for his young apprentice, Willand, a fearsome lesson in the ways of men and power lies ahead. The Realm is an England that is still-magical. Legendary beasts still populate its by-ways. It is a land criss-crossed by lines of power upon which standing stones have been set as a secret protection against invasion. But the power of the array was broken by the Slavers who laid straight roads across the land and built walled cities of shattered stone. A thousand years have passed since then, and those roads and walls have fallen into decay. The dangerous stones are awakening, and their unruly influence is calling men to battle. Unless Gwydion and Will can unearth them, the Realm will be plunged into a disastrous civil war. But there are many enemies ranged against them: men, monsters and a sorcerer who is as powerful as Gwydion himself.

In the peaceful village of Nether Norton life goes on as it has for centuries in the Realm. Will looks back fondly on the two years since he and his sweetheart Willow circled the fire together. But a feeling of unease is stirring inside him.

The Third coming of Arthur. The final volume in a rich and evocative tale set in a mythic 15th century Britain, to rival the work of Bernard Cornwell. As civil war tears the Realm apart, the sorcerer Maskull's plans to bring about a catastrophe that will rob the world of magic are coming to fruition. The wizard Gwydion knows that the only hope for the future lies with Willand, the young man he believes to be the reincarnation of King Arthur. But Will is beset with doubts. He is being stalked by the Dark Child, the twin from whom he was separated at birth and who now serves Maskull. And as the magic gradually begins to fade from the world, the powers of Gwydion, his mentor and friend, seem to be fading too, leading Will to despair that the destruction of the war will ever be halted, or Maskull ever defeated. Despite the seeming impossibility of his task, Will is not ready to give up quite yet. With the help of his strong-minded wife, Willow, and friends as wise and generous as the loremasters Morann and Gort, Will journeys the Realm seeking his destiny. And soon it becomes clear that only by solving the riddle of his own identity can he save the world he loves so deeply.

Un gentil garçon, Harris. Il aime blaguer et rendre service. Il vous tond la pelouse pour quatre dollars australiens, garde les enfants à l'occasion, se découvre une vocation de garde forestier. À l'école, il était champion de billes et, plus tard, de tango. Pourtant, à treize ans, il a entendu son professeur expliquer à sa mère qu'il était sans doute arriéré. Pourtant, au mariage de son frère, il cause un scandale abominable. Une sorte de fatalité semble s'acharner sur lui, fait surgir la violence sur son chemin et le pousse vers les situations extrêmes. Chaque fois se réveille au fond de sa tête la trace d'un souvenir oublié, une image insaisissable. Son itinéraire va passer par la révélation du drame des autres, enfants violés, adolescents prisonniers de la délinquance. Robert Carter nous fait connaître un personnage merveilleusement présent et vrai. Il lui prête sa plume pour le laisser se raconter avec une grande simplicité, une sorte de virginité qui donne une force neuve à des réalités universelles. Émotion et drôlerie semblent couler de source.
