The Red Pill by Frank Freeman (2 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

The red pill from my point of view can be defined as a politically incorrect view of relations between men and women. The term derives from the film Matrix (1999) but is now commonly used as a metaphor to describe an uncomfortable truth, as opposed to the blue pill which is instead a reassuring lie. The redpill, i.e. the person who mirrors himself in the redpill vision, thus seeks to analyse social relations objectively, assessing them objectively as they are. He seeks to make a critical analysis, on the basis of scientific evidence, without allowing himself to be excessively conditioned by the mainstream view of male-female relations that is inevitably highly sweetened and stuffed with lies or at least false truths that act as a lubricant to make relations between human beings flow with less friction. This book aims to give a voice to those who consider themselves redpilled and to address and discuss the issue of male-female relationships in a critical and unfiltered manner.

We're highly agitated by harmless situations, hate looking at social media but can't stop ourselves from peeking, believe in utterly bizarre conspiracy theories, always underestimate the time and cost of doing things, can't resist a 'bargain', attribute our successes to skill and our failures to bad luck, give up on diets that we're fully committed to at the first whiff of chocolate and so on. This book explores the reasons behind our many fallibilities and peculiarities. It's a fascinating insight into the curious ways our minds work in everyday situations. You'll understand far more about yourselves and others as a result, while also discovering simple solutions to meaningful problems that can arise.

The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey: Or, Africa for the Africans by Marcus Garvey (Open Road Media) (386 Reviews)    Price verified 4 minutes ago

A collection of speeches and essays from the acclaimed Jamaican political activist, publisher, journalist, and orator hailed as "Black Moses." A selection of Marcus Garvey's addresses and writings, The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey was originally compiled by his widow, Amy Jacques Garvey, to keep track of her husband's opinions and sayings over his career. However, in 1923, she decided to publish the collection and give the public the opportunity to form their own judgments about Garvey, rather than merely go along with what was being said by the media at the time. Marcus Garvey founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League and supported a Pan-African philosophy that became known as Garveyism. Among his aspirations, he hoped to create a unified, self-sufficient Black nation. Although Garvey was ultimately unable to achieve all his goals, the ideas presented in his book are still relevant today.

The Truth about the World by Robert Angus Lamont (1 Review)    Price verified 21 hours ago

This book is never going to get a five start rating because it tells you the truth about how we live and treat each other and the world. And as Aristotle told us over 2000 years ago we don't like to hear unpleasant truths. 100 years ago there were less than 2 billion people alive on the planet, now there are nearly 8 billion. Experts tell us there will be 10 billion alive on the planet by 2050. Despite this we continue our greedy and often frivolous use of resources and energy. Those of us with a pampered western industrial lifestyle live with the cult of self and look forward to no end of experiences. We drive huge cars and watch huge TV sets and dream of space tourism and other experiences whilst the poor suffer from the boom and bust of capitalism and the effects of global warming with its record temperatures and rainfalls. What is right? Well, as Nietzsche said that is only a matter of opinion but if our grandchildren are to have any future at all we need to start the debate.

The Evolution of Gods: The Scientific Origin of Divinity and Religions by Ajay Kansal (1 Review)    Price verified 2 hours ago

This book explains why, when and how humanity invented various religions and gods. The process began around 100,000 years ago; during this epoch, many nomadic human bands, all over the world, invented primitive languages and began to decipher each happening around them. Whatever they could not comprehend, their chiefs or priests attributed to some unseen power. At some point in time, we do not know exactly when it happened, humans invented an activity: they began to worship each seen or unseen power, which was beyond their control, but could either harm or help them. They invented almost identical methods of worship, such as folding their hands, bowing, kneeling, floral offering, prayers and sacrifices. For example, anthropologists believe that during the last Ice Age, humans had largely inadequate protection against cold; their survival depended largely upon available sunlight -- something beyond their control. In that scenario, solar worship was a logical outcome. In a similar manner, they found thunder and lightning inexplicable and frightening; gradually, they began to worship the sky as a god. There is enough historical evidence to assert that the ancestors of Hindus, Buddhists, Jews, Christians and Muslims worshiped the sun and the sky, before their religions came into practice. The ability to speak and share their ideas helped humans invent many useful devices such as hearths, stitching needles, leathers and footwear. With their aid, they began to lead an easier, healthier and safer life. Consequently, their population began to increase: approximately 10,000 years ago, it exploded to such an extent that they faced a food crisis. Since necessity is the mother of inventions, several human bands invented the technique of cultivation. Farming necessitated them to settle down near fields and ultimately gave rise to homes, villages, cities and civilizations. Gradually, farmers began to face famine caused by droughts and floods. The priests of several places in the ...

The Discourse of Conflict: Nonverbal semiotics and discursive practice in Northern Ireland's Troubles 1977-82 by Warren Hately (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

The Discourse of Conflict focuses on the "prison war" between Republican inmates and their British captors, and the subsequent "dirty" protest and hunger strikes, to deal with two problems central to contemporary philosophy: the unacknowledged bias of structuralist theory towards linguistic signs and the lack of a coherent theorisation of social conflict. To address these conundrums, Hately reconciles Saussurean and Peircean semiotics and then uses Ruthrof's corporeal pragmatics to break from the verbocentric idea of language as a closed system, showing instead that verbal meanings originate from the body, its senses and its imagination, as informed by the deixis of individual communities. With the transformation of linguistic semiotics into corporeality, Foucault's notion of discourse and the neglected category of discursive practice are then reworked to show how statements based on nonverbal signs might function discursively. The culmination of the 1970s Northern Irish prison war in the events of the 1981 hunger strikes offers a study that unites the focus upon nonverbal discourses with the examination of conflict. In exploring the ways in which Republican hunger strikers struggled for legitimacy with the prison authorities, Hately shows how previous notions of conflict, especially Lyotard's différend, are thrown into disrepute by a corporeal perspective recognising the intersemiotic and heterosemiotic character of communication. The availability of diverse semiotic media such as the visual, the haptic, the proximic, etc., offers positions in which conflicts may be regulated without ending in the stalemate Lyotard describes. The division of semio-discursive phenomena into verbal and nonverbal elements, and the tracing of the effects these elements have upon ideational and pragmatic planes of action, also reveal a variety of strategies related to conflict that are superposable upon other instances. As a result, The Discourse of Conflict suggests that the ...

ON WHAT LANGUAGE IS: And how it is possible by Fred Jaeger (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

An original review of how verbal meaning is effected (through the iterative uses of sounds and marks) as that relates to conceptions of the world, to human behaviour and to the human self. That leads to the disappearance of language understood as a self-standing entity (as this or that language). Language is possible only as wholly and thoroughly integrated with the conduct of human life. A massively rich understanding of language then emerges, akin to the ancient concept of the Logos. On What Language Is sets out a wide range of basic ways in which the integration of language with the conduct of human life is realised, illuminating the nature of both. Further details are given in The perspective and Table of contents viewable in Look inside.

The Simplest of Truths: Our Earthly, Human and Spiritual Ecology by Gregory Tutt (6 Reviews)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Fourth Edition The Simplest of Truths is a blend of essays and stories that focus on spirituality and relationships. It does not fit neatly into any mainstream ideology but instead centers on principles of fair-mindedness and respect as a foundation to traditional morality. While the framework of the book is on the religious side, its tone is less evangelical and more social and philosophic. Its purpose is to help reveal inner peace and kindle a sense of harmony. To press upon everyone the need to create an environment where the spiritual and the physical are in balance and that the individual and the community have a shared commitment and responsibility to the other's wellbeing. Condensed down to the very basics, the higher awareness we have of ourselves in relation to others and even with the world around us stems from the spiritual gifts we receive from God. Yet, enlightenment does not start until we recognize those gifts and then apply them by embracing three truths: peace, equality, and the sanctity of life. Uncovering the peace at our core is not a simple matter; however, once revealed and then paired with the two mandates, these three truths together have the power to transform our lives, our religions, our politics, and our world. For each of us, this starts by accepting the peace within, the God within, or maybe just the idea of a connection to a higher conscious and living universe. This spirals outwards from each of us when we embrace the mandates of equality and the sanctity of life. These truths should become the bedrock of our lives. Building upon this, we also need to adopt the principles of respect, honesty, integrity, and wisdom. These are our other defining principles, and these values are the living soil that rests upon the bedrock of the simplest of truths, and out of this fertile soil thrives truth and love. These emanate from the peace within, but they also must exist through the harmony of all our relationships that surround us, in both ...
