The ruby ring witnesses several of the most prodigious love stories that travel through the centuries! Enjoy the lives of the Scottish clans Wardlaw and MacMillan as their stories unfold in their new home, the American colonies. Learn about their hardships and trials and how they eventually called Abbeville, South Carolina, their home.

Plants are silent, still, or move slowly; we do not have the sense that they accompany us, or even perceive us. But is there something that plants are telling us? Is there something about how they live and connect, how they relate to the world and other plants that can teach us about ecological thinking, about ethics and politics? Grounded in Thoreau's ecology and in contemporary plant studies, Dispersion: Thoreau and Vegetal Thought offers answers to those questions by pondering such concepts as co-dependence, the continuity of life forms, relationality, cohabitation, porousness, fragility, the openness of beings to incessant modification by other beings and phenomena, patience, waiting, slowness and receptivity.
