Book excerpt: Some 400,000 hip fractures occur every year, the vast majority among the elderly; all too often these fractures are associated with death or severe disability. After her mother's double hip fracture, Luisa Margolies immersed herself in identifying and coordinating the services and professionals needed to provide critical care for an elderly person. She soon realized that the American medical system is ill prepared to deal with the long-term care needs of our graying society. The heart of My Mother's Hip is taken up with the author's day-to-day observations as her mother's condition worsened, then improved only to worsen again, while her father became increasingly anxious and disoriented. As both a devoted daughter and a skilled anthropologist, Margolies vividly renders her interactions with physicians, nurses, hospital workers, nursing home administrators, the Medicare bureaucracy, home care providers, and her parents. In the Lessons chapter that follows each episode, she discusses in a broader context the weighty decisions that adult children must make on their parents' behalf and the emotional toll their responsibility takes. Here she addresses the complex practical issues that commonly arise in such situations: understanding the consequences of hip fracture and its treatment, preparing health care proxies and advanced directives, enabling elders to remain at home, and the heartbreaking dilemma of prolonging life. Like many adult children, Margolies learned her lessons about eldercare in the midst of crises. This book is intended to ease the information-gathering and decision-making processes for others involved in eldercare.

Book excerpt: A dazzling, evidence-based account of one man’s quest to heal from complex PTSD by turning to endangered coral reefs and psychedelic plants after traditional therapies failed—and his awakening to the need for us to heal the planet as well. Professor Greg Wrenn likes to tell his nature-writing students, “The ecological is personal, and the personal is ecological.” What he’s never told them is how he’s lived out those correspondences to heal from childhood abuse at the hands of his mother. Weaving together memoir and cutting-edge science, Mothership is not just a queer coming-of-age story. It’s a deeply researched account of how coral reefs and a psychedelic tea called ayahuasca helped Greg heal from complex PTSD—a disorder of trust, which makes the very act of bonding with someone else panic-inducing. From the tide pools in Florida where he grew up, to Indonesia’s Raja Ampat archipelago and the Amazon rainforest, this is his search for wholeness when talk therapy and pharmaceuticals did little to help. Along the way, as his ecological conscience wakes up, he takes readers underwater to the last pristine reefs on earth, and into the psyche. Written with prophetic urgency, Mothership ultimately asks if doses of nature will be enough to save us before it’s too late.

Book excerpt: Mothership 2012: Members of a soul group meet only in passing, but they share the same mission: To heal the delicate consciousness of Planet Earth (Gaia), and assist Her in assuming Her right place, as the Galactic Heart, Bride of Spirit. Preface: Samantha-El grew up on the ruined remains of Earth a century after an accidental Total Nuclear Exchange in 1999 killed billions of people and rendered most of the planet uninhabitable. A few thousand families had been able to evade the forced evacuation and followed their inner guidance to secluded safe zones, where they have been living ever since. Now, the ex-snack company Hydra Corp. wants to buy the planet as a whole and turn it into an enormous power station. To clear the way for construction, they are stepping up the brutal evictions. Samantha-El goes into a cellular memory regression, to figure out why the Galactic Council wants her, at only 15 years old, to be the first Council representative from Earth . . . and the one to broker her home planet's sale. Part One: The Immortal Alana Peters was raised in a meditation community in the 1970's, doing yoga, chanting, learning Sanskrit and studying the chakras. She was taught that “God Lives in You, As You,” and that all of life is a dance between the energies of God and Goddess. This didn't always make sense to her: If God and Goddess are so happy and in love, why is there still violence, grief and dissatisfaction on Earth? She decides after college graduation, that she will set out into the world, to see where Life guides her to be of service. But she never expected to meet the ACTUAL God. In Denver, Colorado. In Bed! But, Nico's not really a God. He's just a 5,000 year old Extraterrestrial teenager, trying to figure out how to make the world a better place. Even if it means killing off his wicked loved ones, one by one. The year was 1989 . . . The Shift had begun.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing a black Atlantic approach to constructive postmodern efforts to understand and transcend modern worldviews and modern world orders, Mothership Connections draws upon the work of scholars in the tradition of W. E. B. Du Bois, Charles H. Long, Alfred North Whitehead, and Charles Hartshorne. The author shows that connections to the originating influences of transatlantic slavery and black Atlantic experiences are essential to any adequate account of modernity and postmodernity. He also argues that metaphysics is essential to theology and moral theory, synthesizing neoclassical metaphysics and black theology to develop a black Atlantic account of metaphysical aspects of struggle, power, and ethical deliberation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jenny Scott had her son she thought she was prepared, but in reality she had no idea of the challenges of motherhood. A successful creative director and graphic designer, Jenny was used to a busy work and social schedule and soon found herself sick of daytime TV and trawling twee baby websites that were obsessed with nappies and nipple cream. Determined to get out of the tracksuit and make use of not having a stressful job, she set out to meet a whole group of hip mum friends with the same interests as her, who were embracing motherhood as a new, exciting chapter in their lives. In Mother's Meeting, Jenny and some of her cool mama friends share their knowledge on a variety of topics - from light tips, such as quick make-up fixes and school-run fashion pointers, to more serious advice on how to regain your personal identity and deal with post-natal depression. Contributors such as Sharmadean Reid, founder of London's hottest nail salon WAH nails, TV presenter Angelica Bell, and Leila Fataar, Adidas Original Global Manager, all share inspirational quotes that you can rip out and stick on the fridge, alongside inspiring stories to give you a morale boost, and even postpregnancy exercises that can be done at home with nothing more than a tin of beans and a great soundtrack. Mother's Meeting is for mums of all ages, who are looking to make the most of their limited free time, and be more than just a mum.

Book excerpt: Anna Ornstein is a Holocaust survivor. After emigrating to the U.S., she seldom spoke of the experiences she suffered while a young girl. Twenty-five years ago, at the family Seder gathering, her family asked for a story from her past. In an evocative, understated passage, she shared a bit of the tragedy she saw through the eyes of a child. Every year she has added to this tradition by sharing another chapter of the tragedies she witnessed and the small moments of grace in her survival. Through her family's support, Orenstein gained enough strength to share her experiences in My Mother's Eyes, in hopes of keeping the nightmare from ever happening again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A phenomenal, human story. . . . I could not put this book down." —CLARA HUGHES An instant national bestseller, this raw and affecting memoir is the story of a mother and daughter who beat the odds together. Decades before Perdita Felicien became a World Champion hurdler running the biggest race of her life at the 2004 Olympics, she carried more than a nation's hopes—she carried her mother Catherine's dreams. In 1974, Catherine is determined and tenacious, but she's also pregnant with her second child and just scraping by in St. Lucia. When she meets a wealthy white Canadian family vacationing on the island, she knows it's her chance. They ask her to come to Canada to be their nanny—and she accepts. This was the beginning of Catherine's new life: a life of opportunity, but also suffering. Within a few years, she would find herself pregnant a third time—this time in her new country with no family to support her, and this time, with Perdita. Together, in the years to come, mother and daughter would experience racism, domestic abuse, and even homelessness, but Catherine's will would always pull them through. As Perdita grew and began to discover her preternatural athletic gifts, she was edged onward by her mother's love, grit, and faith. Facing literal and figurative hurdles, she learned to leap and pick herself back up when she stumbled. This book is a daughter's memoir—a book about the power of a parent's love to transform their child's life.
