The Power of Moving Forward is a book written for anyone navigating through life’s changes. Dr. Carla has created a guidebook using ancient wisdom illuminating the individual stages of life development. Through accessing this same ancient wisdom, she provides guidance on successfully traveling through your individual life course. This book is entertaining, educational, and thought provoking. Whether you feel on top of the world, or are struggling to survive, this book has insights that will inspire you to transform into the person you were truly meant to be. Mary Tobin, PhD (Holistic Medicine) Author, “Holistic Healing Power” *** Within the ordinary life is the raw material for gold. Carla Weis uses her personal story to help us see the potential that exists when a life is honored and excavated for its deep wisdom. As an initiate, she helps to draw the connects between the natural evolution of our life’s unfolding and the potential that exists in all of us to reach new levels of spiritual awareness. How do we become an embodied spiritual being? Who is privileged with this opportunity? Carla Weis demonstrates how the natural unfolding of life can hold all the raw materials for realizing one’s true self and purpose. That we are all this privileged; we just need to know how to look. Whether powerful and miraculous or mundane and commonplace, the eyes with which we look at the foundational material of our life makes all the difference in what we can make from this raw material. Carla Weis uses her life story, told with both simplicity and almost nonchalant introspection to help us see how the truth of who we are is concealed, and then can be revealed and made conscious as we journey through our life. And when and if we are ready, what we can do to bring our raw essence into self-realization. Kate Siner , PhD (Psychology) Co-Author with Jack Canfield Host, Real Answers Podcast

Trends of the last few years, including global health crises, political division, and the ongoing threat to social-environmental survival, have been continually obscured by disinformation and misinformation and therefore created a need for stronger global technological media policy. It is no longer acceptable or moral to support a global communication network based only on market factors and propaganda. The Handbook of Research on Global Media’s Preternatural Influence on Global Technological Singularity, Culture, and Government views preternatural healing of the media-sphere from a variety of perspectives on the dynamic of heart-coherent entertainment. Specifically, it addresses the subject of a healthy media from a variety of fractal perspectives. Covering topics such as collective unconscious, mediated reality, and government media trust, this major reference work is an essential resource for librarians, media specialists, media analysts, sociologists, government employees, communications specialists, psychologists, researchers, educators, academicians, and students.

We once idolized tech entrepreneurs for creating innovations that seemed like modern miracles. Yet our faith has been shattered. We now blame them for spreading lies, breaking laws, and causing chaos. Yesterday’s Silicon Valley darlings have become today’s Big Tech villains. Which is it? Are they superheroes or scoundrels? Or is it more complicated, some blend of both? In The Venture Alchemists, Rob Lalka demystifies how tech entrepreneurs built empires that made trillions. Meta started as a cruel Halloween prank, Alphabet began as a master’s thesis that warned against corporate deception, and Palantir came from a campus controversy over hateful speech. These largely forgotten origin stories show how ordinary fears and youthful ambitions shaped their ventures—making each tech tale relatable, both wonderfully and tragically human. Readers learn about the adversities tech entrepreneurs overcame, the troubling tradeoffs they made, and the tremendous power they now wield. Using leaked documents and previously unpublished archival material, Lalka takes readers inside Big Tech’s worst exploitations and abuses, alongside many good intentions and moral compromises. But this story remains unfinished, and The Venture Alchemists ultimately offers hope from the people who, decades ago, warned about the risks of the emerging Internet. Their insights illuminate a path toward more responsible innovations, so that technologies aren’t dangerous weapons but valuable tools that ensure progress, improve society, and enhance our daily lives.

'In a very Jungian way, the writing is episodic and discursive and the whole is embellished with dreams. Most readers will find something of interest: I was drawn to the story of his time as a psychiatrist at Powick Hospital in the 1950s and the development of the unit treating patients with combined LSD and psychotherapy. Others may relish his many examples of group work in action or the tantalizing glimpses of Louis Zinkin as his analyst in the 1980s.' - Journal of Analytical Psychology This compelling book argues for the integration of medical and psychoanalytic models of the workings of the mind, and applies an integrated approach to general psychiatric practice and psychotherapy. Ronald Sandison looks at the seminal ideas of key figures such as Freud, Jung and Foulkes and shows how they have transformed the way people perceive themselves and society. He draws on his experience of over fifty years' of psychiatric practice, which include twenty years' work in the former mental hospitals. He interweaves and enriches his account with personal experiences and with his dreams. This biographical material extends his concept of searching for and finding a unifying principle, not only for psychiatry, but also for himself. Sandison challenges the exclusive use of the medical model in psychiatry,arguing that psychoanalysis and its derivatives are the most effective treatments in psychiatry, as they take into account the inner life of the client. He shows how the prescription of clinical drugs to alleviate mental symptoms can present a barrier to the therapeutic relationship. This book brings together the key ideas in psychotherapy in the last century: it gives an essential overview that will enable practitioners and theoreticians to gain a deeper understanding of their own work and its significance within the development of this significant field.

At the dawn of the twenty-first century, three ideas dominate the world: peace as the preferred basis for relations between and among different countries, democracy as the optimal way to organize political life, and free markets as the indispensable vehicle for the creation of wealth. While not practiced everywhere, these ideas have--for the first time in history--no serious rivals. And although the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, were terrible and traumatic, they did not "change everything," as so many commentators have asserted. Instead, these events served to illuminate even more brightly the world that emerged from the end of the Cold War. In The Ideas That Conquered the World, Michael Mandelbaum describes the uneven spread (over the past two centuries) of peace, democracy, and free markets from the wealthy and powerful countries of the world's core, where they originated, to the weaker and poorer countries of its periphery. And he assesses the prospects for these ideas in the years to come, giving particular attention to the United States, which bears the greatest responsibility for protecting and promoting them, and to Russia, China, and the Middle East, in which they are not well established and where their fate will affect the rest of the world. Drawing on history, politics, and economics, this incisive book provides a clear and original guide to the main trends of the twenty-first century, from globalization to terrorism, through the perspective of one of our era's most provocative thinkers.

A New York Times NOTABLE BOOK OF THE YEAR An NPR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR A Publishers Weekly BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR A globetrotting, time-bending, wildly entertaining masterpiece hailed by the New York Times Book Review as "Audaciously well written … the book I was raving about to my friends before I'd even finished it." Set in three different eras, and in three different locations—all, coincidentally, named Venice—this “startling, beautiful gem of a book” (NPR) calls to mind David Mitchell and Umberto Eco in its mix of entertainment and literary bravado. The core story is set in sixteenth-century Venice, where, on the island of Murano, the famed makers of Venetian glass were perfecting one of the old world's most wondrous inventions: the mirror. An object of glittering yet fearful fascination—was it reflecting simple reality, or something more spiritually revealing?—the Venetian mirrors were state-of-the-art technology, subject to industrial espionage by desirous sultans and royals world-wide. Thus, for the skilled craftsmen that made them, any attempt to leave the island—to steal the technology—was a crime punishable by death. One man, however—a world-weary war hero with nothing to lose—has a scheme he thinks will allow him to outwit the city's terrifying enforcers of the edict, the ominous Council of Ten . . . Meanwhile, in two other Venices—Venice Beach, California, circa 1958, and the Venice casino in Las Vegas, circa today—two other schemers launch similarly dangerous plans to get away with a secret . . . All three stories weave together into a spell-binding tour de force that is impossible to put down—an old-fashioned, stay-up-all-night novel that, in the end, returns the reader to a stunning conclusion in the original Venice . . . and the bedazzled sense of having read a truly original and thrilling work of art.
