Download or read book Dysmorphic Kingdom written by Colleen Chen and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vesper is a scientific-minded young woman living in the kingdom of Malland. When she finds a detached talking penis in the woods, her sheltered life with its wistful fantasies of change explodes into chaos as the penis chases her home, wrecks her sister's engagement party, and causes a scandal so costly that it results in Vesper's forced engagement to a wart-faced widower who agrees to pay her family's debt. Vesper flees her engagement, hoping for a reward when she returns the penis to his owner-the royal prince, no less. But she discovers that the penis isn't the only talking body part flying around the kingdom. People everywhere are falling victim to a magical disease that causes body parts to fall off and animate, and Vesper finds herself fighting an evil plot to create an army of body parts and a society of denial and control, one that deals with all problems by severing them. Uplifting, humorous, and full of wisdom, Dysmorphic Kingdom is high fantasy with a philosophical bouquet, raising questions about conquering both our insecurities with ourselves and our differences with others, all in a polarity-ridden world. "Edgy, original. It's inventive, funny, and sly. The characters come alive, and you can't help but lose yourself in this world. Great writing makes you think of the world in a different way-and Chen does exactly that." Ori Brafman, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Chaos Imperative and Sway "Warning: addictive. Side effects may include e-stalking Colleen Chen to locate more of her writing, sitting on a sunlit patio for several hours to devour a book that's outside of the genres you normally read or compulsively visiting a surprising world in which none of the tedious old rules apply." Soma Mei Sheng Frazier, author of Collateral Damage: A Triptych

Drawing from historical, cross-cultural, and contemporary practices, both interpretive and noninterpretive, the authors present Integral Dream Practice, an approach that emphasizes the dreamer's creative participation, reflective capacities, and mindful awareness in working with dreams.

Download or read book Notebooks for an Ethics written by Jean-Paul Sartre and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-10 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the famous conclusion to Being and Nothingness, Jean-Paul Sartre announced that he would devote his next philosophical work to moral problems. Although he worked on this project in the late 1940s, Sartre never completed it to his satisfaction, and it remained unpublished until after his death in 1980. Presented here for the first time in English, Notebooks for an Ethics is Sartre's attempt to articulate a moral philosophy. In the Notebooks he addresses any number of themes and topics relevant to an effort to formulate a concrete and revolutionary socialist ethics, among them the differences between force and violence, the relationship of means and ends, and the relationship of oppression and alienation. Most important, he tries to show that there can be an authentic mutual recognition among free individuals where no one steals another's freedom. While remaining committed to the basic principles of Being and Nothingness, Sartre here seeks to locate the foundation for action in history and society. The Notebooks thus form an important bridge between the early existentialist Sartre and the later Marxist social thinker of the Critique of Dialectical Reason. Sartre grapples anew with such central issues as "authenticity" and the relation of alienation and freedom to moral values. In dealing with fundamental modes of relating to the Other, among them violence, entreaty, demand, appeal, refusal, and revolt, he highlights the notions of conversion and creation as they figure in the necessary transition from individualism to historical consciousness. The Notebooks themselves are complemented here by two appendixes, one on "the good and subjectivity", the other on the problem of blacks in theUnited States as a case study of oppression.
