Synopsis
Borrowing the idea of the 365-day devotional that is popular among readers of religious books, David Kidder and Noah Oppenheim have adapted it to the contemporary world of secular, rational modernism. Instead of inspirational homilies, they have selected 365 thought-provoking passages from thinkers, writers, scientists, and people in the arts. Each day’s entry is a jumping-off point for that day’s thought, meditation, and self-betterment, and, like the religious devotionals, THE INTELLECTUAL DEVOTIONAL can bring comfort and consolation. This daily digest of intellectual challenge and learning will arouse curiosity, refresh knowledge, expand horizons, and keep the mind sharp. Millions of Americans keep bedside books of prayer and meditative reflection--collections of daily passages to stimulate spiritual thought and advancement. This is a secular version of the same--a collection of 365 short lessons that will inspire and invigorate the reader every day of the year. Each daily digest of wisdom is drawn from one of seven fields of knowledge: history, literature, philosophy, mathematics and science, religion, fine arts, and music. The goal is to refresh knowledge we've forgotten, make new discoveries, and exercise modes of thinking that are ordinarily neglected once our school days are behind us.--From publisher description.

Publisher's Note
A year's worth of daily readings from the secular arena provides subject matter for intellectual growth and advancement, in a volume that features passages from the arts and sciences and includes coverage of such topics as opera terms, basic physics principles, and the inner workings of batteries.
