Book Synopsis World, Underworld, Overworld, Dreamworld by : Mike Hockney
Download or read book World, Underworld, Overworld, Dreamworld written by Mike Hockney and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 969 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient cultures were faced with two immense problems. Why is there something rather than nothing and why is the universe ordered rather than chaotic? To answer these questions, they invented cosmologies, which were also the basis of their religious beliefs. A person's cosmological and religious beliefs are always interdependent. The ordered universe of the ancients was divided into four: 1) the World (that we inhabit), 2) the Overworld (the sky and heavens that the gods inhabit), 3) the Underworld (that the dead inhabit), and 4) Dreamworld (the mysterious zone between sleep and death that connects the living, dead and the gods). This is the incredible story of these four worlds and how they have influenced the development of all human thought, right up to the present day.

Download or read book Ghosts Are Real written by Jack Tanner and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientists once laughed at people who believed in invisible waves. Then the theory of electromagnetism demonstrated that we are immersed in an ocean of invisible waves. Scientist sneered at people who believed in invisible energies. Now scientists say that 95% of the universe is made of dark energy and dark matter that are wholly invisible. It won't be long until scientists have accepted the reality of ghosts. Imagine a soul phone for contacting the dead, such as Thomas Edison believed possible. Would it be the most popular invention ever? Whom would you call? - famous figures from history, saints and prophets, or your dear departed ones? Or would you try to get through to God himself, and hope you didn't get a crackly connection? Atheists always get "No Signal."

Book Synopsis Illuminism Contra Discordianism by : Brother Cato
Download or read book Illuminism Contra Discordianism written by Brother Cato and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language." – Wittgenstein. We use language to think, to talk to each other, to write, to form beliefs, religions, philosophies, and so on. But what if we are using the wrong language? Do we have "wrong thoughts" because we are using the wrong language? Do we have wrong religions and philosophies for exactly the same reason? What's the right language? If we could find the right language, could we then think correctly, without error, without delusion, without fantasy? Would the right language give us the right religion, the right philosophy? Would it explain reality to us? Discordians hate Truth. The struggle between the Discordians (in all their various forms) and the Illuminati is the most important there is. The soul of humanity is at stake. The Truth itself is the prize to be won or lost.
Book Synopsis The War of the Ghosts and Machines by : Mike Hockney
Download or read book The War of the Ghosts and Machines written by Mike Hockney and published by Magus Books. This book was released on with total page 729 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you a ghost or a machine? You don't need to be a superstitious believer to support the side of the ghosts. Machine people reduce everything to lifeless, mindless, purposeless atoms of matter: the ultimate little machines. For "ghost" people, reality reduces to dimensionless, mathematical singularities, which are none other than the hyperrational monadic souls posited by Pythagoras and Leibniz. Ghost people subscribe to atoms (minds) with atomic number zero, i.e. minds/souls are made of massless, dimensionless photons. Machine people start with hydrogen atoms, with atomic number one. All "ghost" entities are associated with zero and infinity. All machine people deny the existence of zero and infinity. Mathematically, these are the two numbers where the ghosts and the machines collide head on. This book is all about demonstrating that there are indeed ghosts in the machines.
Book Synopsis Criminality and Power in the Postcolonial City by : Maria Ridda
Download or read book Criminality and Power in the Postcolonial City written by Maria Ridda and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates the literary imaginings of the postcolonial city through the lens of crime in texts set in Naples and Mumbai from the 1990s to the present. Employing the analogy of a ‘black hole,’ it posits the discourse on criminality as a way to investigate the contemporary spatial manifestations of coloniality and global capitalist urbanity. Despite their different histories, Mumbai and Naples have remarkable similarities. Both are port cities, ‘gateways’ to their countries and regional trade networks, and both are marked by extreme wealth and poverty. They are also the sites and symbolic battlegrounds for a wider struggle in which ‘the North exploits the South, and the South fights back.’ As one of the characters of the novel The Neapolitan Book of the Dead puts it, a narrativisation of the underworld allows for a ‘discovery of a different city from its forgotten corners.’ Crime provides a means to understand the relationship between space and society/culture in a number of cities across the Global South, by tracing a narrative of postcolonial urbanity that exposes the connections between exploitation and the ongoing ‘coloniality of power.’

Book Synopsis The Language and Imagery of Coma and Brain Injury by : Matthew Colbeck
Download or read book The Language and Imagery of Coma and Brain Injury written by Matthew Colbeck and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-22 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What occurs within coma? What does the coma patient experience? How does the patient perceive the world outside of coma, if at all? The simple answer to these questions is that we don't know. Yet the sheer volume of literary and media texts would have us believe that we do. Examining representations of coma and brain injury across a variety of texts, this book investigates common tropes and linguistic devices used to portray the medical condition of coma, giving rise to universal mythologies and misconceptions in the public domain. Matthew Colbeck looks at how these texts represent, or fail to represent, long-term brain injury, drawing on narratives of coma survivors that have been produced and curated through writing groups he has run over the last 10 years. Discussing a diverse range of cultural works, including novels by Irvine Welsh, Stephen King, Tom McCarthy and Douglas Coupland, as well as film and media texts such as The Sopranos, Kill Bill, Coma and The Walking Dead, Colbeck provides an explanation for our fascination with coma. With a proliferation of misleading stories of survival in the media and in literature, this book explores the potential impact these have upon our own understanding of coma and its victims.
