Book Description
New York Times Bestseller Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize Winner of the J. Anthony Lukas Award "Nimbly splices together history, science, reporting and personal experiences into a taut and cautiously hopeful narrative.… Egan’s book is bursting with life (and yes, death)." —Robert Moor, New York Times Book Review The Great Lakes—Erie, Huron, Michigan, Ontario, and Superior—hold 20 percent of the world’s supply of surface fresh water and provide sustenance, work, and recreation for tens of millions of Americans. But they are under threat as never before, and their problems are spreading across the continent. The Death and Life of the Great Lakes is prize-winning reporter Dan Egan’s compulsively readable portrait of an ecological catastrophe happening right before our eyes, blending the epic story of the lakes with an examination of the perils they face and the ways we can restore and preserve them for generations to come.

Book Description
Dear readers, generally authors exhibit their expertise on the subject that they are writing about based on their experiences. But writing about death and the life after is not easy, as it cannot be seen and cannot be experienced. It is very difficult to understand death and the life after even if someone explains to us since it is invisible to the human eye. However, bible tells us very clearly about the journey of souls after death. It took lot of effort to make every point written in this book to be biblical because no one will believe if I write about journey of souls without proper references. I am happy to say that this book is complete to some extent as I am able to find biblical references for journey of souls after death. Where are the souls of our forefathers that died before us? This question makes us curious to know the truth. At the same time, the thought of death and life after causes us to get frightened and we then try to avoid thinking about it. Only few of us realize that there is a long life after our death. This book is a great gift for those who wants to know more about it…

Book Description
In recent decades universal reconciliation (UR) has sharpened its attack on evangelical faith. By their fiction and nonfiction, and by film (The Shack), universalists such as Paul Young, Brian McLaren, Rob Bell, and others are propagating the idea that the love of God trumps all other attributes of God including his holiness and justice. From this starting point universalists believe that all people are born as children of God, that all are going to heaven, that all must embrace God's love. Those who reject God in this life will repent after death and escape hell. Even the devil and his angels will repent from hell and go to heaven. Universalism is an old idea. Christians have confronted UR since the third century and refuted it as heresy--heresy because UR believes that faith in Jesus is unnecessary. Thus, the death of Jesus Christ as an atonement for sin becomes unnecessary. Through his acquaintance with Paul Young, De Young is increasingly concerned that Young and other universalists are misleading many. In this book De Young challenges all the arguments that universalists make--their appeals to the Bible, to logic and reason, and to church history--and shows that they are unconvincing.
