Book Description
Who doesn't like a little tumultuous tale every now & then? It's not every day you get to listen to a true story about the incredible golden gumption of the human spirit, & how it can, indeed, beat defeat. We all have a special place in our heart for "Rocky Balboa," don't we? We all love a little underdog story. Besides, who doesn't daydream about the good old rotary phone days of mixed tapes & mosh pits, when times were much more... NOT pandemic? Welcome to this personal plight... may you marvel at the courage & candor, the art of recollection, the courtesy of a proficient execution, the charismatic way she draws you in. You will see what "speaking your truth" looks like, & witness how it lands for everybody involved, no matter what the uncomfortable cost. On the flip side, strap in... for an amusing, fun wild ride down the memory lane of the... oh so enchanting, 80s & 90s. An unbridled venture back in time, this provocative full circle moment is a tell-all account of the author's unorthodox passage through the halls of humanhood. Somehow, it all makes perfect sense even when it doesn't. Through the darkest hour, the promise of perseverance prevails. Children, indeed, are the future, & how we treat them... makes or breaks our world. This is a book about forgiveness & complete freedom for all of us, no matter what eats you up inside or how deep the cut. In Her Words No longer buried in the back of "Pandora's Box Is Burning," where it originally debuted, this special edition spawn for an all-inclusive broader audience where everyone is bound to relate. We all have a story... don't we? This book may be regarding my frayed family ties, but I'd be remiss not to acknowledge how the "system" has produced many casualties. We are in this thing called life, together, no doubt. This book will be a surrogate for anyone seeking to be set free. Breaking the chains of a flawed lineage is no small, easy feat, but I have surely done all the heavy lifting. I stand up, fight back, regain my power once & for all, & recalibrate my entire existence so that others can catch the rainbow, the promise of a better day. If you or anyone you know has ever felt... *abandoned, betrayed, forsaken, used, abused, neglected or forlorn *like damaged goods, a train wreck, a fallen angel, a failure *like it's too hard, too much, too scary or just too little too late Bring it in, fam, you are not alone. Unlock the heart cage here. Exonerate your well-being & joy. Grant yourself grace, permission to heal & release perceived issues for good. IT'S NEVER TOO LATE! Join me, your story matters too. By listening to mine, you will find that yours will suddenly wake. It's high time for ALL OF US to unravel the ties that bind & fly. BookonFire Press~ In Love We Trust

Book Description
The South African 'Arms Deal' was never a single event. Rather it was, and still is, a series of scandals and outrages, all contributing towards a dubious momentum that takes South Africa further away from transparent democratic practice. The Devil in the Detail, written by two of South Africa's leading researchers on the subject, takes the reader on a journey of insight. Witness at close hand the breaking open of State secrets, with tales of outrageous personal enrichment. Explore how the Arms Deal emerged out of the criminal networks of both the old SADF and the ANC's security apparatus, raising questions as to whether South Africa's remarkable transition was not oiled, at key points, by criminal intent and collusion. Follow the trail of the various offset deals done after the Arms Deal - cumulatively worth just as much as - and discover that corruption continues to impact on defence spending in South Africa. Examine the economics and witness how the Arms Deal was not only economically irrational, but virtually suicidal, almost single-handedly derailing the post-apartheid economic project. Finally, read about the rise of the 'shadow state', the politicisation of prosecutions, and the rise of the 'spooks'. The remarkable conclusion of this landmark study is that years after the deal took place, the forces that drove its decisions have only grown in strength, further blighting South Africa's prospects for a future in which all may have a share.

Book Description
Jennifer Traig's memoir Devil in the Details paints a portrait of a well-meaning Jewish girl and her good-natured parents, and takes a very funny, very sharp look back at growing up with obsessive-compulsive disorder. Recalling the agony of growing up an obsessive-compulsive religious fanatic, Traig fearlessly confesses the most peculiar behavior like tirelessly scrubbing her hands for a full half hour before dinner, feeding her stuffed animals before herself, and washing everything she owned because she thought it was contaminated by pork fumes. Jennifer's childhood mania was the result of her then undiagnosed OCD joining forces with her Hebrew studies-what psychiatrists call scrupulosity While preparing for her bat mitzvah, she was introduced to an entire set of arcane laws and quickly made it her mission to follow them perfectly. Her parents nipped her religious obsession in the bud early on, but as her teen years went by, her natural tendency toward the extreme led her down different paths of adolescent agony and mortification. Years later, Jennifer remembers these scenes with candor and humor. In the bestselling tradition of Running with Scissors and A Girl Named Zippy, Jennifer Traig tells an unforgettable story of youthful obsession.

Book Description
“There is no world of thought that is not a world of language,” Walter Benjamin remarked, “and one only sees in the world what is preconditioned by language.” In this book, Samuel Weber, a leading theorist on literature and media, reveals a new and productive aspect of Benjamin’s thought by focusing on a little-discussed stylistic trait in his formulation of concepts. Weber’s focus is the critical suffix “-ability” that Benjamin so tellingly deploys in his work. The “-ability” (-barkeit, in German) of concepts and literary forms traverses the whole of Benjamin’s oeuvre, from “impartibility” and “criticizability” through the well-known formulations of “citability,” “translatability,” and, most famously, the “reproducibility” of “The Work of Art in the Age of Its Technological Reproducibility.” Nouns formed with this suffix, Weber points out, refer to a possibility or potentiality, to a capacity rather than an existing reality. This insight allows for a consistent and enlightening reading of Benjamin’s writings. Weber first situates Benjamin’s engagement with the “-ability” of various concepts in the context of his entire corpus and in relation to the philosophical tradition, from Kant to Derrida. Subsequent chapters deepen the implications of the use of this suffix in a wide variety of contexts, including Benjamin’s Trauerspiel book, his relation to Carl Schmitt, and a reading of Wagner’s Ring. The result is an illuminating perspective on Benjamin’s thought by way of his language—and one of the most penetrating and comprehensive accounts of Benjamin’s work ever written.

Book Description
C. G. Jung’s The Red Book: Liber Novus, published posthumously in 2009, explores Jung’s own journey from an inner state of alienation and depression to the restoration of his soul, as well as offering a prophetic narrative of the collective human psyche as it journeys from unconsciousness to a greater awareness of its own inner dichotomy of good and evil. Jung utilised astrological symbols throughout to help him comprehend the personal as well as universal meanings of his visions. In The Astrological World of Jung’s Liber Novus, Liz Greene explores the planetary journey Jung portrayed in this remarkable work and investigates the ways in which he used astrological images and themes as an interpretive lens to help him understand the nature of his visions and the deeper psychological meaning behind them. Greene’s analysis includes a number of mythic and archetypal elements, including the stories of Salome, Siegfried and Elijah, and demonstrates that astrology, as Jung understood and worked with it, is unquestionably one of the most important foundation stones of analytical psychology, and an essential part of understanding his legacy. This unique study will appeal to analytical psychologists and Jungian psychotherapists, students and academics of Jungian and post-Jungian theory, the history of psychology, archetypal thought, mythology and folklore, the history of New Age movements, esotericism and psychological astrology.

Book Description
This collection of twelve new essays examines some of what Jane Austen has become in the two hundred years since her death. Some of the chapters explore adaptations or repurposings of her work while others trace her influence on a surprising variety of different kinds of writing, sometimes even when there is no announced or obvious debt to her. In so doing they also inevitably shed light on Austen herself. Austen is often considered romantic and not often considered political, but both those perceptions are challenged her, as is the idea that she is primarily a writer for and about women. Her books are comic and ironic, but they have been reworked and drawn upon in very different genres and styles. Collectively these essays testify to the extraordinary versatility and resonance of Austen’s books.
