A perfectly timed resource to help us communicate with consciousness and compassion in times of division and uncertainty Love thy neighbor. Lovingkindness. The love of the universe. From traditional religions to new spirituality, love is the foundation on which all practice rests. We all embrace the idea of love ... and then we get on Facebook. Whether divided by race, gender, sexual orientation, identity preference, or opinion, the incredible moral and social division in our world has become a source of pain and confusion for so many people. We know that love and unity are beautiful ideals, but the question remains: How do we get there? In what may be his boldest and bravest book yet, bestselling author Matt Kahn teaches us how to remain aligned with our highest truths and values no matter what differences or challenges we face, so we may create an opportunity to heal the painful patterns that keep us small, stuck, and separate from each other. Throughout the book, Kahn shares ten ess

The problem of structure and agency has been the subject of intense debate in the social sciences for over 100 years. This book offers a solution. Using a critical realist version of the theory of emergence, Dave Elder-Vass argues that, instead of ascribing causal significance to an abstract notion of social structure or a monolithic concept of society, we must recognise that it is specific groups of people that have social structural power. Some of these groups are entities with emergent causal powers, distinct from those of human individuals. Yet these powers also depend on the contributions of human individuals, and this book examines the mechanisms through which interactions between human individuals generate the causal powers of some types of social structures. The Causal Power of Social Structures makes particularly important contributions to the theory of human agency and to our understanding of normative institutions.
“Latin America” is a concept firmly entrenched in its philosophical, moral, and historical meanings. And yet, Mauricio Tenorio-Trillo argues in this landmark book, it is an obsolescent racial-cultural

The acclaimed author of Pandora’s Lunchbox and former New York Times reporter takes an enlightening, engaging deep dive into the world of alternative medicine and the surprising science that explains why it may work.We all know someone who has had a seemingly miraculous cure from an alternative form of medicine: a friend whose chronic back pain vanished after sessions with an acupuncturist or chiropractor; a relative with digestive issues who recovered with herbal remedies; a colleague whose autoimmune disorder went into sudden inexplicable remission thanks to an energy healer or healing retreat.The tales are far too common to be complete fabrications, yet too anecdotal and outside the medical mainstream to be taken seriously scientifically. How do we explain them and the growing popularity of alternative medicine more generally? Is there a biological basis for practices like acupuncture, tai chi, chiropractic, and energy healing? Who are the faithful patients and practitioners who tel

Throughout time, people have turned to goddesses as symbols of what they seek — from abundance and healing to protection and passion. In a wide-ranging yet succinct daily reflection format, spiritual teacher Julie Loar presents the qualities and origins of an international array of these deities. She gracefully aligns the goddesses with the seasons of the year and the signs of the zodiac, and in an accessible, contemporary voice, guides readers to see reflections of their own power in these embodiments of the feminine and then put this power to practical use. Like the sherpas who worship Chomolunga while guiding climbers up Everest, readers may call on this Nepalese goddess as they struggle to attain a goal. Or on the Roman Fortuna — inspiration for gambling’s wheel of fortune — for good luck. Loar builds on the bestselling tradition of Jean Shinoda Bolen to help readers draw upon timeless wisdom, one day at a time.
