内容简介：
The introduction of this book reads, "Beauty, like every other
quality — courage, fear, ugliness, trust, truth, wisdom — is a part
of us and apart from us, inside us and outside us, personal and
impersonal. Beauty invites us to build bridges and make connections
between the senses and the soul, between contemplation and
expression, between ourselves and the world." In this wide-ranging
and deeply felt book, artist and writer J. Ruth Gendler invites us
to reclaim and celebrate the often misunderstood quality of beauty
as one of the most profound and essential forces in our lives.
Drawing upon observations from art and mythology, science and
nature, contemporary culture and personal experience, the author
looks at her subject in its most generous implications — not simply
as a reflection of surface and image, but as a pathway to
wholeness, integrity, coherence, and ultimately, to love. Written
with curiosity, courage, a discerning eye and a lyrical
sensibility, and illustrated with evocative line drawings by the
author, Notes on the Need for Beauty displays the strong personal
voice that has made her previous book, The Book of Qualities so
beloved. It is a work to savor and to share.

"
Notes on the Need for Beauty
is delicious, a feast for
the soul. Ruth Gendler's eye and heart are true and the vividness,
constancy, and meticulousness of her meditation calls us to the
banquet of beauty like music heard across a meadow. This is an
utterly nurturing book, savory with loveliness from the exquisite
cover art to the last morsel of wisdom." --
Tim Farrington,
author of
The Monk Downstairs
and
Lizzie's
War
"Beauty is as beauty does and Ruth Gendler outdoes herself with
this completely charming illustrated compilation of information and
inspiration.
Notes on the Need for Beauty
is warm, winsome
and very, very wise." --
Donna Henes, author of
The Queen of
My Self
"Gendler doesn't just teach people how to reach into their
creativity--she exudes it." --
Catherine Girardeau, independent
radio producer
"In this time when we are losing our own senses by one percent per
year, rediscovering the sense for beauty is an urgent priority that
requires conscious employment. In
Notes on the Need for
Beauty
, Ruth Gendler presents us with faceted seeds that can be
planted in our own souls for rumination. She urges us to look at
everything as aesthetic events, to not just look, but to look as if
with our arms open. This book is a lighthouse of a gift for
individual reimaginations for beauty wherever we uncover it." --
Paulus Berensohn, author of
Finding Your Way With
Clay
"Like a rose disciple, Ruth Gendler takes note of what's beautiful
and assembles this wholly original text, full of children talking,
mystical insight, the history of cosmetics, sublime etymologies,
and big mirrors that someone attached to the sides of the NYC
sanitation trucks. Look out. Here comes the aquarium." --
Coleman Barks, author of
A Year with Rumi
"Subtle and complex, these more-than-clever gems become addictive
once you begin reading." --
Patricia Holt,
San Francisco
Chronicle
"The Qualities are wise and express truth in a personal way." --
Jean Bolen, author of
Goddesses in Every Woman
"The very act of reading
Notes on the Need for Beauty
will
change the way you see things. It will awaken you to notice beauty,
to make beauty, to remember beauty. And this is a cause for
celebration." --
Christiane Northrup, MD, author of
Women's
Bodies, Women's Wisdom
"Through Gendler's work, you see beauty in an entirely new way." --
Valerie Geller,
Creating Powerful Radio
, international
radio consultant
"Who does not have a thirst for more beauty in their life? Who has
provided themselves with the necessary time to savor the beauty
that already surrounds them. Ruth Gendler's book,
Notes on the
Need for Beauty
, is studded with wise counsel and crafted prose
coaxing us gently, to turn from our current ways to better witness
and so be nourished by the infinite beauties of the world--just as
it is." --
