DOWNLOAD EBOOKInner Visions, is an astonishing book about the reality of inner-city neighborhoods where it seems all hope and vision for a better future has been abandoned. Jan Thrope takes the reader on a tour through the most poverty stricken areas of Cleveland, Ohio, to show the despair and how some of the residents are pulling together to make positive changes with hard work and innovative thinking. This book is a testament to the human spirit and that despite the situations some people have been born into, they still want better for themselves and their community.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFirst published in 1979, Inner Visions discussion the nature of contemporary magical thought – encompassing the Tarot and the Qabalah – and considers its impact on the creative imagination. The author presents a fusion of the creative, magical and mythological undercurrents which are part of the ‘new consciousness’, and traces the influence of surrealist art and the expansive psychedelic period on the art and music of the 1970s. He looks, for example, at the relationship of the fantasy art on record sleeves to the electronic inner-space music which it often accompanies, and shows that this form of modern music represents one facet of the contemporary reaction against scientism and of the search for what Roszak has termed the visionary sources of our culture. The author concludes that a major mythological impulse is emerging in our culture and that magical and surreal approaches represent a profoundly invigorating and inspiring attitude linking the individual to the cosmos. This will be a fascinating read for anyone interested in magic, mythology, art, music and literature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn Illuminations, Stephen Paul drew from his experience as a therapist, counselor, and teacher to compose a collection of proverbs to inspire and assist those seeking personal change and renewal. Inneractions continues this process through and beyond the point of "illuminations," offering meditations and proverbs designed to enhance and sustain the growth, change, and self-acceptance that have been achieved. This book is for those who have been willing to face their personal issues and do the work necessary to remove the inhibitions, misconceptions, fears, and doubts that have limited them in the past. Stating that is now the time "to catch the rhythm and join the dance" and "to pass through the door when it opens," Inneractions provides a clear roadmap for integrating the self with the beauty of the natural world and for being able to accept and receive its gifts.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Ovary of Eve is a rich and often hilarious account of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century efforts to understand conception. In these early years of the Scientific Revolution, the most intelligent men and women of the day struggled to come to terms with the origins of new life, and one theory—preformation—sparked an intensely heated debate that continued for over a hundred years. Clara Pinto-Correia traces the history of this much maligned theory through the cultural capitals of Europe. "The most wonderfully eye-opening, or imagination-opening book, as amusing as it is instructive."—Mary Warnock, London Observer "[A] fascinating and often humorous study of a reproductive theory that flourished from the mid-17th century to the mid-18th century."—Nina C. Ayoub, Chronicle of Higher Education "More than just a good story, The Ovary of Eve is an object lesson about the history of science: Don't trust it. . . . Pinto-Correia says she wants to tell the story of history's losers. In doing so, she makes defeat sound more appealing than victory."—Emily Eakin, Nation. "A sparkling history of preformation as it once affected every facet of European culture."—Robert Taylor, Boston Globe
