In G. K. Chestertons captivating third novel, The Ball and the Cross, we are introduced to a unique blend of fantasy, farce, and theology. The story revolves around Evan MacIan, a tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed Scottish Highlander and devout Roman Catholic, and James Turnbull, a short, red-haired, gray-eyed Scottish Lowlander who is a naive atheist.

Myths are usually seen as stories from the depths of time—fun and fantastical, but no longer believed by anyone. Yet, as Philip Ball shows, we are still writing them—and still living them—today. From Robinson Crusoe and Frankenstein to Batman, many stories written in the past few centuries are commonly, perhaps glibly, called "modern myths."

In this deeply entertaining book, philosopher and baseball fan Alva Noë explores the many unexpected ways in which baseball is truly a philosophical kind of game. For example, he ponders how observers of baseball are less interested in what happens, than in who is responsible for what happens; every action receives praise or blame. To put it another way, in baseball - as in the law - we decide what happened based on who is responsible for what happened.
