Peyote Dreams: Journeys in the Land of Illumination
by Charles DuitsA detailed account of the transformation of consciousness and discovery of life’s purpose brought on by peyote • Shows how peyote and other visionary plants do not distort reality but gloriously unveil it, pulling the mind out of its cosmic slumber and revealing our unity with all life • Explains the necessity when working with peyote to remain the master of one’s mind and consciously work on oneself • Examines how modern society’s revulsion to sacramental plants and other consciousness expanders is deeply rooted in Western philosophy Charles Duits was caught in the grip of a dead-end existential and spiritual crisis. At the urging of one of his oldest friends, he takes peyote “like a man committing suicide,” launching him on a visionary journey of philosophical examination and spiritual revelation. In this little-known classic of drug literature, we find a detailed account of the radical alteration of consciousness and discovery of life’s purpose brought on by the Mexican cactus known as peyote. Consuming peyote more than 200 times, Duits lucidly describes the transformation of reality he experienced as well as the necessity to consciously work on oneself and remain the master of one’s mind in order to avoid getting carried away by hallucinations. The author examines how modern society’s revulsion to sacramental plants and other consciousness expanders is deeply rooted in Western philosophy’s embrace of reason and materialism at the expense of inner knowledge. He explains how sacramental plants do not distort reality as many fearfully believe but gloriously unveil it, pulling the mind out of its cosmic slumber and revealing a world that is finally real and full of meaning. Poetic yet precise, Duits’s descriptions of his peyote experiences offer a glimpse in to the beautiful divine reality of which we are all a part, yet over which the structures of society cast a veil. This guide to “sailing the inner sea” reveals that the answers to the meaning of life lie not in material pursuits but in experiencing the richness and unity of the world in front of us.

And Peyton likes to try new things. She recently mastered long division in math class and loves to practice the saxophone--as long as her adorable dog Mila doesn't howl! But Peyton is particular when it comes to food. Peyton doesn't like it when two foods touch on her plate. Peyton doesn't like green foods. Or orange foods. Or red foods. Peyton doesn't like foods that are gooey or gummy, sticky or slimy, frosted or flaky. And Peyton most definitely doesn't like chunky or lumpy foods. Thanksgiving is our most universal holiday, beloved by adults and children. But Thanksgiving can also be a challenge for young eaters who struggle with new tastes and new experiences. Peyton is the hero of this food lover's tale and she is determined to confront her fear of new foods by finding a Thanksgiving pie she truly likes, even if it's flaky, lumpy, or chunky.

Phantom Limbs: On Musical Bodies
by Peter SzendyThe prostheses Peter Szendy explores—those peculiar artifacts known as musical instruments—are not only technical devices but also bodies that live a strange phantom life, as uncanny as a sixth finger or a third lung.The musicological impulse to inventory those bodies that produce sound is called into question here. In Szendy’s hands, its respectable corpus of scholarship is read aslant, so as to tease out what it usually prefers to hide: hybrids and grafts produced by active fictions, monsters, and chimera awaiting the opportunity to be embodied. Beyond these singular bodies that music composes and disposes there lies the figure of a collective “social” body ready to emerge amid an innervated apparatus that operates at a distance, telepathically.Phantom Limbs touches on bodies of all shapes and sizes that haunt the edges of music’s conceptualizations. Music continually reinvents such bodies and reconvenes them in new collective formations. It is their dynamics and crystallizations that Szendy auscultates on a motley corpus that includes Bach, Diderot, Berlioz, Eisenstein, Disney, and Monk.
Phantom Messages: Chilling Phone Calls, Letters, Emails, and Texts from Unknown Realms
by William J. Hall Jimmy PetonitoHauntings, aliens, and other unexplained phenomena are encountered in strange new ways in this unique investigation into paranormal contact. In Phantom Messages, paranormal investigators William J. Hall and Jimmy Petonito examine stories of unexplained contact by phone, computer, TV, radio, letter, and other mediums. These messages come from a variety of mysterious sources, from loved ones who never sent them to extraterrestrials, deceased friends, and bizarre beings from the past or future. There are recordings of what seem to be future events in progress, and messages from people who lived centuries in the past. Some feature predictions, or warnings, that are eerily accurate. As Hall and Petonito attempt to unravel these impossible communications, they share real life paranormal messages of hope, terror, time slips, and wonder.

by V. S. Ramachandran Sandra BlakesleeIn Phantoms in the Brain, Dr. Ramachandran recounts how his work with patients who have bizarre neurological disorders has shed new light on the deep architecture of the brain, and what these findings tell us about who we are, how we construct our body image, why we laugh or become depressed, why we may believe in God, how we make decisions, deceive ourselves and dream, perhaps even why we're so clever at philosophy, music and art.

Pharmocracy II: How Corrupt Deals and Misguided Medical Regulations Are Bankrupting America--and What to do About It
by William FaloonOur healthcare system is irretrievably broken, and now it is devastating the US financially. Pharmocracy II, like its predecessor, Pharmocracy, uncovers egregious FDA incompetence, abuse, and corruption. This is an agency that is serving its corporate &“clients,&” the big drug companies, not the public. This book also shows how information about natural therapies from food and other natural sources is censored to support drug company profits. Over-regulation causes lifesaving medications to be delayed or suppressed altogether, and makes consumers pay inflated prices for FDA-approved therapies that are only minimally effective and often dangerous.A reform of this crony capitalist healthcare system, Faloon argues, would spare Medicare and Medicaid from insolvency, allow small businesses to start hiring and giving raises again, and significantly improve the health of the American public.Pharmocracy II presents factual evidence and irrefutable logic to support a complete overhaul of today&’s broken healthcare system. It lays out a plan of what to do and how to do it. If the plan is followed, it will not only vastly improve American health. It will rescue the American economy.Since 1980, William Faloon and the nonprofit Life Extension Foundation® have published articles exposing what is rotten, advocating what is good, and promoting innovation in American healthcare. No one is more qualified to lead us forward out of today&’s healthcare disaster.

Phenomenological Perspectives on Shame: A Philosophy for Strong Ears
by William S. HamrickThis book utilizes Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s fascinating philosophy of embodiment to cast further light on the incredibly rich and complex phenomenon of shame. The philosopher himself made only scattered references to shame, but both his early phenomenology and his later phenomenological ontology do provide unique illumination of the phenomenon. The book demonstrates how Merleau-Ponty’s work is relevant to those of certain other thinkers in the analytic tradition.
