“I think my greatest accomplishment so far is something that doesn't show up in lights or get reviewed - and that's simply the sexual sanity that I have tried to contribute to over the last twenty years.” This was Casey Donovan, speaking in 1983, four years before his untimely death. Born John Calvin Culver, he was a pioneer and will eternally remain amongst the elite of the adult film industry. Yet he was more than just a porn star. As a hustler par excellence his clients included movie stars, senators, European royalty, and ordinary fans. The love of his life was the tough-guy actor ...

Este libro no busca definir a Baudelaire. Lo recorre. Explora su forma de escribir, su relación con el cuerpo, con la ciudad, con el mal y con el lenguaje. No ofrece una teoría, ni una clave de lectura, ni una interpretación definitiva. Atraviesa su obra con atención, con rigor, con una escritura clara. Cada capítulo sigue una línea: la forma, el abismo, la condena, la belleza insoportable. Sin adornos. Sin eufemismos. Una lectura que se sostiene por sí sola, sin necesidad de explicarse.

To walk under the shadow of the Almighty doesn't always mean there will never have struggles or difficult moments in this life, It is a mistake to think God is not with us in those difficult moments. If there is one promise we can be sure of through our lives, it is that Jesus will take us by the hand and walk with us until the end of the world. The supernatural protection of the Almighty is with those who recognize God in all their paths even when it may seem we are alone.

The life and medical practice of Reuben Harris Muth, M.D., a rural saddlebag doctor, is reconstructed from an extant set of physician’s daybooks, chronicling his professional activity from 1858 until 1898, including patients seen and the fees charged. The daybooks also provided a modicum of hints at other activities in his life, including his farming business and the whereabouts of his wayward son. However, there were no personal letters or diaries available. Thus, other primary sources and local newspaper accounts were utilized to fill out the most likely details and actions of his life,...

I was born at the time when autism was being spun off from schizophrenia into developmental delays. I did not fit the "as-of-then" markers to be diagnosed (issues with learning, disruptive behavior), so I went through the system without a diagnosis (or even knowing what autism was). This book is actually a presentation I give which goes over how the understanding of the autism spectrum has morphed and been redefined, and how individuals like me (diagnosed or not) experience the world, including developing masks and coping mechanisms, and of course, train wrecks. I am not aiming for pretty, ...

Este libro no busca hacer justicia. Llega tarde para eso. Pero sí quiere contar bien lo que la historia contó mal. Lise Meitner pensó la fisión nuclear mientras escapaba del nazismo. Emmy Noether reformuló las bases de la física moderna sin sueldo ni cargo. Rosalind Franklin tomó la foto del ADN y la firmaron otros. Las tres vivieron lo mismo con distintos nombres: fueron brillantes, incómodas y necesarias. Pero no fueron reconocidas. Lo que vas a leer acá no es una lección, ni un manual de fechas. Es una narrativa que se mete en los márgenes de la historia para mostrarte cómo ...

Now with new cover, new interior art, and vintage movie posters. "John Holmes was every man’s gigolo, a polyester smoothie with a sparse mustache, a flying collar, and lots of buttons undone. He wasn’t threatening. He chewed gum and overacted. He took a lounge singer’s approach to sex, deliberately gentle, ostentatiously artful, a homely guy with a pinkie ring and a big dick who was convinced he was every woman’s dream.” John Curtis Holmes had the longest, most prolific career in the history of pornography. He had sex on-screen with two generations of leading ladies, from Seka and...
