For fifty-five years, Enrica Mallard has lived a private life reflecting and contemplating the idea of who we are, divulging her discoveries, thoughts, feelings, and reflections only with close friends and clients in the past twenty years. In Enlightenment in Suburbia, she shares the wisdom she has gained throughout her lifetime to help you gain greater consciousness and reach your true purpose. Assisting you in your awakening, this book guides, clarifies, inspires, and reminds you who you really are beyond all the identities you grasp within your life. Free of alignment to any particular teaching or religion, Enlightenment in Suburbia sheds light on what is hindering you from reaching a more enlightened existence. It reminds you that who we are is infinite in nature and reflects as your authentic self in the world and in existence. When you awaken to this, you experience the freedom of communion and oneness. With reflective exercises included, Mallard offers both a conversation and an invitation to bring more of your own knowing to light, free to be who you are.

George Berkeley was considered "the most engaging and useful man in Ireland in the eighteenth century". This hyperbolic statement refers both to Berkeley’s life and thought; in fact, he always considered himself a pioneer called to think and do new things. He was an empiricist well versed in the sciences, an amateur of the mechanical arts, as well as a metaphysician; he was the author of many completely different discoveries, as well as a very active Christian, a zealous bishop and the apostle of the Bermuda project. The essays collected in this volume, written by some leading scholars, aim to reconstruct the complexity of Berkeley’s figure, without selecting "major" works, nor searching for "coherence" at any cost. They will focus on different aspects of Berkeley’s thought, showing their intersections; they will explore the important contributions he gave to various scientific disciplines, as well as to the eighteenth-century philosophical and theological debate. They will highlight the wide influence that his presently most neglected or puzzling books had at the time; they will refuse any anachronistical trial of Berkeley’s thought, judged from a contemporary point of view.

Since the Second Vatican Council the place of Mary in theology and generally in the life of the Church has been at times muted. This is perhaps understandable given the debates concerning Mary's "place" in the documents of Vatican II. In an ecumenical age, it was argued, the church needed a less triumphalist Mariology and piety with a greater focus on Mary as model disciple. In certain respects this has led to a dichotomy between the continued Marian piety of many faithful (and, truth be told, the piety of the post-conciliar popes) and a theological timidity concerning Mary. This collection of chapters seeks to address the current situation of Mariology. Taken as a whole these chapters represent a welcome call for renewal and reawakening in Mariology. The collection is also delightfully eclectic, both in terms of topics covered and in terms of the denominational and academic backgrounds of the authors.
