Perched on a steep, wooded hillside west of Dunedin in a South Island rainforest in New Zealand is Waipori Falls Village. The 'reflections' in this volume were inspired by living in the splendid isolation of this remote village surrounded by a scenic reserve. Perhaps that’s why I was there - to rediscover my balance, to get things into perspective. There in the magical isolation of Waipori we could reflect upon life, on our experiences in the different parts of the world where we have lived, finding our way again after so much wandering. After our combined Waipori reflections, there are my reflections back in Clashnessie, my one-time home in the Highlands of Scotland, followed by my reflections during the summer of 2008, which I spent 'on the edge of the sea' in Nova Scotia. The book encompasses the three locales, and all the reflections, wherever they are set, have been inspired by my time in Waipori, which began the whole process.-Charles Muller

It is the didactic content of his writings-in his sermons, his novels, and his essays on natural theology-which is the study of this work.One forgets that Kingsley was not, in the first instance, a so...
