During the lazy, dog days of summer, treat yourself to some me-time, down-time by watching some of those Wilmette Institute Web Talks that got away from you. You may find something that you can later use to perk up your firesides and study classes. Choose from a variety of speakers from around the country and around the world and from topics ranging from spiritual discussions of Bahá’í texts to ones preparing you for participating in the prevalent discourses of society. Each talk has links to:
- a short description of the talk and biographical information about the speaker
- the Web Talk itself; and
- a longer review article about the talk.
