"Miracles: An Examination of the Miraculous throughout History" by Geoffrey Ashe
"Do you believe in miracles? In this study, leading historian and Arthurian expert Geoffrey Ashe studies the question from every angle.

A Light in the Darkness is the story of one of the greatest astrological achievements of all time: the first photographic evidence of black holes in April 2019, and its significance for humanity, told by the scientist who accomplished it. A man of faith ordained in the Protestant tradition, Heino Falcke wrestles with the ways in which black holes force us to confront the boundary where human life ends and the celestial begins. He also ponders why black holes are...>>
