Book Description
Alan Watts—Here and Now explores the intellectual legacy and continuing relevance of a prolific writer and speaker who was a major influence on American culture during the latter half of the twentieth century. A thinker attuned to the spiritual malaise affecting the Western mind, Watts (1915–1973) provided intellectual and spiritual alternatives that helped shape the Beat culture of the 1950s and the counterculture of the 1960s. Well known for introducing Buddhist and Daoist spirituality to a wide Western audience, he also wrote on psychology, mysticism, and psychedelic experience. Many idolized Watts as a guru-mystic, yet he was also dismissed as intellectually shallow and as a mere popularizer of Asian religions (the "Norman Vincent Peale of Zen"). Both critical and appreciative, this edited volume locates Watts at the forefront of major paradigmatic shifts in Western intellectual life. Contributors explore how Watts's work resonates in present-day scholarship on psychospiritual transformation, Buddhism and psychotherapy, Daoism in the West, phenomenology and hermeneutics, humanistic and transpersonal psychology, mysticism, and ecofeminism, among other areas.

Book Description
A heartbreaking and romantic coming-of-age novel from the author of Perfect You and Living Dead Girl. “I miss her, but not like I should. I want her to wake up so I don't have to be tied to her forever.” Abby long ago accepted that she can’t measure up to her beautiful, magnetic sister Tess, but at least she knows exactly what she is: Second best. Invisible. Until the accident. Now Tess is in a coma, and Abby’s life is on hold. It may have been hard living with Tess, but it’s nothing compared to living without her. Abby’s got a plan to bring Tess back, though, involving the gorgeous and mysterious Eli. But then she learns a shocking secret about Tess. Something that was always right there, but she’d never seen. Abby is about to find out that truth isn’t always what you think it is, and that life holds more than she ever thought it could.

Book Description
I gladly comply to the request of many at the release of this bundle of sermons, to write an introductory word. As far as these sermons are concerned, they were spoken by me in my beloved congregation and brought to the press by a few well wishing, truth loving friends. It can never be appreciated enough. Herewith, our heartfelt thanks. They are straight forward sermons. Those who would rather read an exegetical or theological sermon would be better off laying these to the side. However, if it is about the experimental Truth, then I hope you may find a crumb of food for your soul in them, for comfort or edification, for discovery or the uncovering of false foundations. But together with all this, that the Name of the Lord may be exalted and praised, and that our souls may be comforted, is our wish and prayer for all readers. To God's honour and the salvation of His people. Reverend A. van Straalen

Book Description
Forever There is a historical fantasy novel set in Varanasi. The protagonists belong to the family of ‘The weavers of the Gods’. The story revolves around their family, who find themselves embroiled in upheavals and wars amid an extremely tumultuous period in Kashi when skirmishes and destruction were the order of the day. The protégés, mere children, join a band of Warrior Monks to help protect the culture of the land. We see history through the eyes of The Four as they transform into warriors – head of the Elite Forces of the Warrior Monks – battle-scarred, wielding weapons of destruction – feared by the enemy, loved and missed by their family. Be transported to a period when every day brings new adventures to your doorstep. The book looks at history anew, even as value systems change and cultural plates shift. What values must one imbibe? Is diversity positive or negative? Should the world be in only one colour, or should it be in many hues and shades? Do acts of violence upon community and culture destroy the inherent essence of civilisation and culture? Contemporary, poignant, and engaging, this unputdownable book will set your heart aflutter.
