Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's the most influential religion you've never heard of: Discordianism took the world by storm when it was revealed to two young hippies in 1958 or 1959. Who would have thought this goofy nuttiness would eventually turn into a worldwide caper involving the assassination of a US President, Timothy Leary, a rubber gorilla, a ten hour play, a million pounds of burnt cash, the German secret service, a pumpkin launching trebuchet, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Charles Manson, twelve arrested New Orleans Mardi Gras participants, a series of murders, Kermit the frog, and an extremely confused Australian who wrote this very silly book? Not me, that's for sure.

Book Synopsis Woman of Substances by : Jenny Valentish
Download or read book Woman of Substances written by Jenny Valentish and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-05-17 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journalist Jenny Valentish takes a gendered look at drugs and alcohol, using her own story to light the way. Mining the expertise of 35 leading researchers, clinicians and psychiatrists, she explores the early predictors of addictive behaviour, such as trauma, temperament and impulsivity. Drawing on neuroscience, she explains why other self-destructive behaviours – such as eating disorders, compulsive buying and high-risk sex – are interchangeable with problematic substance use. From her childhood in suburban Slough to her chaotic formative years in the London music scene, we follow her journey to Australia, where she experiences firsthand treatment facilities and AA groups, and reflects whether or not they are meeting the needs of women. Woman of Substances is an insightful, rigorous and brutally honest read. In Australia it was nominated for a prestigious Walkley Book Award. 'Employing expert interviews and research, each rich personal episode is contextualised within the under-examined issue of women's substance abuse. Detailed, insightful and told with a feature writer's narrative flair' Bookseller and Publisher. 'Engages readers with storytelling while presenting scientific findings and theories in a way that is accessible to a broad audience' Broadsheet. 'Part monograph, part memoir, part Ginsbergian howl of outrage at a culture in which gender bias is a tenet. It is a work of compellingly articulate anger' The Australian. 'In straightforward, lively prose she relates even her darkest moments without self-pity or aggrandisement, and often with a streak of gallows humour, leading to more laugh-out-loud lines than you might expect' The Saturday Paper. 'We need books like this, and writers like Valentish, to give voice to our frustrations and concerns, to help legitimise and mobilise' Kill Your Darlings. 'Valentish's passion lies in exploring the underlying causes and their effects and, in the most female of ways, offering companionship and reassurance for her readers' The Monthly. 'Doesn't mince her words' Sydney Morning Herald.
Book Synopsis Epiphanies, Theories, and Downright Good Thoughts...Made While Playing Video Games by : J.C.L. Faltot
Download or read book Epiphanies, Theories, and Downright Good Thoughts...Made While Playing Video Games written by J.C.L. Faltot and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of people play video games. A lot of people think they have good, even great, ideas. So what happens when these two worlds collide? Well, Epiphanies, Theories, and Downright Good Thoughts... tries to answer these questions for us. The video game industry has boomed into a monster of the consumer market and though we may not realize it, this unstoppable machine has left a fingerprint on the generation that has grown up playing them. And by fingerprint, we mean a giant freaking punch. So now, only now, we are beginning to see what years of video game-playing, sitting-in-front-of-the-tv-for hours, learning-to-use-surge-protectors has done to our future. One such pioneer who survived this dangerous time is our author, J.C.L. Faltot, who takes a serious, albeit sarcastic, look into the machine that is the video game monster. How video games have helped shape the market, touched the lives of those who play them, and defined people like Faltot for the rest of his life. For better or for worse. And perhaps in many ways (as you will find along Faltot's estranged journey) it's often a little bit of both.

Book excerpt: In this page-turning follow-up to Dangerous Consequences, a serial killer wants revenge—but two surprising people stand in her way . . . Abandoned by her mother as a kid, Payton Jones wants no reminders of her past and no commitments. She’s beautiful, educated, rich, and gets what she wants—even if her favorite friends-with-benefits, Tony Barnes, is a hot complication. But her life of shopping, spa appointments, and mindless sex is interrupted when the most wanted woman in the Bay area starts hunting for Payton’s estranged mother. Curiosity leads Payton into unfamiliar—and risky—territory. Psychologist and local radio show host Donathan “Sex Doctor” James almost became a victim of the killer, who bared her every twisted thought to him. He knows she won’t stop until she commits the most personal murder of all. But when his wife’s best friend, Payton Jones—who Donathan isn’t quite sure he can trust—uncovers a shattering connection to the killer, they team up to find her. Now, surviving the chase puts Donathan’s marriage, career, and life on the line while Payton comes face to face with everything she’s been running from for years . . .

The pace is blazing hot!” —Victor McGlothin “A fast-paced, suspense-filled, dramatic curve ball that will keep you turning the pages.” —Sistah Friend Book Club
Download or read book Chasing the Dream written by Bill Lindsey and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Chasing the Dream, Bill Lindsey eloquently explores religion, race, family, flying, politics, education, success, and failure-all in the search for meaning. This book is part introspective memoir, part family history, and part spiritual journey. It's a story that explores those grand, most important-yet illusive-questions about our purpose on this earth. Chasing your dream requires more than just ambition and persistence. It means putting in hard work and time. It means showing up. But mostly, it means believing you'll get there-no matter how convoluted the path seems. Lindsey learned these lessons growing up during troubled times in Mississippi-the early civil rights movement-and in a life filled with fascinating, diverse careers. As an officer in the navy, he served aboard a ship and flew planes along the coast of Vietnam. As a civilian, he worked for a well-known international consulting firm and for Hughes Aircraft Company in California. And, he founded a management consulting firm. Although Lindsey excelled in these positions, his job success left him strangely dissatisfied. Through it all, Lindsey knew he had yet to find his true purpose. Leaning on God for understanding and direction, he found knowledge and strength to keep chasing his dream, even though he couldn't define what that dream was. Finally, after a long trek of self-discovery, he found his destination: directing an executive MBA program at Loyola Marymount University where he taught executive students to be true leaders. But it wasn't until he began writing his memoir that he realized how valuable his life's journey had been in revealing truths about the nature of self-fulfillment and success. Now he shares those helpful lessons and his story with other dreamers.
Book Synopsis Epiphanies and Dreams in Greek Polytheism by : Michael Lipka
Download or read book Epiphanies and Dreams in Greek Polytheism written by Michael Lipka and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-12-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While modern students of Greek religion are alert to the occasion-boundedness of epiphanies and divinatory dreams in Greek polytheism, they are curiously indifferent to the generic parameters of the relevant textual representations on which they build their argument. Instead, generic questions are normally left to the literary critic, who in turn is less interested in religion. To evaluate the relation of epiphanies and divinatory dreams to Greek polytheism, the book investigates relevant representations through all major textual genres in pagan antiquity. The evidence of the investigated genres suggests that the ‘epiphany-mindedness’ of the Greeks, postulated by most modern critics, is largely an academic chimaera, a late-comer of Christianizing 19th-century-scholarship. It is primarily founded on a misinterpretation of Homer’s notorious anthropomorphism (in the Iliad and Odyssey but also in the Homeric Hymns). This anthropomorphism, which is keenly absorbed by Greek drama and figural art, has very little to do with the religious lifeworld experience of the ancient Greeks, as it appears in other genres. By contrast, throughout all textual genres investigated here, divinatory dreams are represented as an ordinary and real part of the ancient Greeks' lifeworld experience.
Book Synopsis Experiencing Epiphanies in Literature and Cinema by : Bradley Lewis
Download or read book Experiencing Epiphanies in Literature and Cinema written by Bradley Lewis and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-09 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experiencing Epiphanies in Literature and Cinema uses health humanities and psychological humanities to explore literary and cinematic epiphanies. James Joyce first adopted the term “epiphany” from its religious use to articulate momentsof luminous intensity or “sudden spiritual manifestation.” This study develops and extends Joyce’s use of epiphany through a range of literary and cinematic examples, from William Shakespeare to Ruth Ozeki and from Yasujirō Ozu to Jim Jarmusch. This wealth of epiphanies in the arts is important from a health humanities perspective in that they provide access to aesthetic and sustainable experiences of well-being, joy, and human flowering. They also provide antidotes to aesthetics of anti-epiphany—a showing forth of terror, horror, and panic. Experiencing Epiphanies is accordingly both critical and affirmative, diagnostic and therapeutic. It uses critique to understand the increasing need for well-being in contemporary times, and it uses affirmation to develop underutilized resources in the arts for transforming, configuring, and refiguring our everyday lives.
Book Synopsis A Journey of Epiphanies: Learning Leadership by : Terry R. Vergon
Download or read book A Journey of Epiphanies: Learning Leadership written by Terry R. Vergon and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-05-16 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What enables a prisoner to lead a nation, an attorney or minister to inspire widespread social change, or a geek to become the CEO of a powerful corporation? People enter into leadership in any number of ways – some by excelling at their craft and others quite by accident. Some go on to become great leaders and others do not. What is the mysterious alchemy that can lead a person to greatness, and can we identify and prepare someone for leadership? A Journey of Epiphanies: Learning Leadership explores the specific path that all great leaders take. It is a path of shared realizations – epiphanies – that enables people to become inspirational leaders. As such, pursuing leadership is a matter of choice. Not reserved just for the elite or chosen few. This book is for anyone who has ever dreamed of becoming a leader and for those who are looking for a leader. A Journey of Epiphanies: Learning Leadership examines all the aspects of leadership and shows how to make the journey. Reflecting upon the leadership of Abraham Lincoln, Mahatma Gandhi, Amelia Earhart, Colin Powell, Steve Jobs, and many others, what emerges is a practical guide to leadership that virtually anyone can use. Having studied leadership and been in leadership roles for more than 25 years, Terry R. Vergon thoughtfully explains how to progress through each epiphany and the effect each has on our behavior. Then he looks at how each epiphany ripples through organizations and groups of people to inspire them to achieve amazing goals. Written to encourage people to pursue their dreams of leadership, Vergon also hopes to change what we look for in leaders and how we develop and mentor them.
