Today, Bishnois remain fierce defenders of trees and animals, living by principles set by their guru Jambhoji in the fifteenth century. They chase down armed poachers, rescue and care for injured animals, save endangered species, and lead heroic reforestation efforts in the Rajasthani desert. In a time of biodiversity loss and climate change, what lessons do they have to teach us? The story of the Bishnoi is true, though it reads like a fable. In 1730, the Maharajah of Jodhpur sent his troops to chop down a forest in northwest India. When 363 local villagers, led by Amrita Devi, hugged the trees to protect them, the Maharajah's men chopped off their heads. Who are these people who love trees so much that they would give their lives to save them? Martin Goodman was invited deep into the world of the Bishnoi, who asked him to share their message. My Head for a Tree takes us from temples, homes, and schoolrooms to animal sanctuaries, farms, and desert forests, revealing a thriving community of eco-warriors. Their stories inspire and challenge readers to live more kindly and defend nature with a passion. While you can only be born a Bishnoi, Goodman writes, we can all follow their example."--]]></description><link>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3747716</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C3747716</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goodman, Martin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/3747716040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Extraordinary Story of the Bishnoi, Guardians of Nature</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781778401497/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Cellist of Dachau]]></title><description><![CDATA[In 1938, Otto Schalmik, a 19-year-old musician from a Jewish family in Vienna, is arrested by Nazi police.

A History of Judaism provides the first truly comprehensive look in one volume at how this great religion came to be, how it has evolved from one age to the next, and how its various strains, sects, and traditions have related to each other.In this magisterial and elegantly written book, Martin Goodman takes readers from Judaism's origins in the polytheistic world of the second and first millennia BCE to the temple cult at the time of Jesus. He tells the stories of the rabbis, mystics, and messiahs of the medieval and early modern periods and guides us through the many varieties of Judaism today. Goodman's compelling narrative spans the globe, from the Middle East, Europe, and America to North Africa, China, and India. He explains the institutions and ideas on which all forms of Judaism are based, and masterfully weaves together the different threads of doctrinal and philosophical debate that run throughout its history.A History of Judaism is a spellbinding chronicle of a vibrant and multifaceted religious tradition that has shaped the spiritual heritage of humankind like no other.]]></description><link>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2834130</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C2834130</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goodman, Martin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2834130040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781846141553/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rome and Jerusalem]]></title><link>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C189345</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S40C189345</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Goodman, Martin]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2007 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://glenwood.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/189345040</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Clash of Ancient Civilizations</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780713994476/MC.GIF&amp;client=chinookarch&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
