Our ecological, social, and political issues all stem from the ideologies that drive our collective actions. In contrast to our innate humanity, which is rooted in unity, these ideologies have led us to believe that we are separate from each other, separate from nature, and separate from the results of our actions. Such a worldview encourages individuals to maximize self-interest, which then causes fragmentation, conflict, pollution, and the depletion of natural resources.

'What is life?' asked the poet Shelley, and could not come up with an answer. Scientists, too, have not solved the puzzle. Yet biographers and obituarists continue to corral lives in a few columns, or a few hundred pages, aware all the time how fleeting and elusive their subject is. In Lifescapes, the acclaimed biographer and obituarist Ann Wroe reflects on a career spent pursuing life: a process, as she sees it, not of chronological narration but of trying to seize souls.

This book is an invitation to cultivate stillness and contentment in an ever-changing, uncertain world.

Join Japanologist Beth Kempton on this life-changing pilgrimage far beyond the tourist trail, to uncover the soul of the country, its people and its deeply buried wisdom.

What is this strange mental world that seems so essential to being human? The conscious mind brings together sensations, perceptions, thoughts and memories to generate the seamless movie of a person's life. It makes us aware of the world around us and our own self. How all this emerges from a kilogram of brain cells is one of the greatest unanswered questions.

Cuando su marido la abandonó, Rosemary Altea se dio cuenta de que el miedo había sido su compañero desde la cuna. Miedo a un padre con la severidad propia del militar y a una madre incapaz de mostrar ternura; miedo a los rostros y las voces que poblaban las noches de su niñez, a las extrañas percepciones que la estremecían, a todo cuanto la acercara a su abuela Eliza. No fue fácil para ella aceptar que poseía un don para comunicarse con los espíritus.

By letting go of your ego, you will not only feel like a completely different person, but will also empower your life in every way possible. There are many misconceptions about the human ego. Some tie an over-reaching ego to success, arrogance, and other behaviors. Is it that simple? Ego is really the sum of the false ideas that we have about self. These beliefs are formed early in life, reside in the subconscious, and have an incredibly strong influence on our thoughts, actions, and emotions.

As often as we use our senses, we rarely stop to think about their place in history. But perception is not dependent on the body alone. Carolyn Purnell persuasively shows that, while our bodies may not change dramatically, the way we think about the senses and put them to use has been rather different over the ages. Journeying through the past 300 years, Purnell explores how people used their senses in ways that might shock us now.

El deporte no es solamente una actividad física, sino una actividad integral, holística, que altera, desarrolla y activa las distintas dimensiones del ser humano, las visibles y las invisibles, las materiales y las inmateriales, lo más nuclear y esencial que hay en él, pero también lo más exterior. Partiendo de esa premisa, esta obra muestra la práctica deportiva como un camino de extraordinaria utilidad para activar la inteligencia espiritual, trascendente o existencial, latente en todo ser humano.
