  In this controversial book, Kersey Graves presents a historical and comparative analysis of the concept of Satan in various religious traditions. The book explores the origins of the devil figure, tracing its roots in ancient mythologies and religious beliefs. "The Biography of Satan" challenges conventional religious interpretations and sheds light on the diverse and evolving perceptions of evil and temptation throughout human history. Key Aspects of the Book "The Biography of Satan": Religious History: Graves' book provides a comprehensive study of the concept of Satan in different religious and mythological contexts. The author examines the symbolic significance and interpretations of Satan in ancient and modern belief systems. Controversial Perspectives: "The Biography of Satan" presents alternative viewpoints on the devil figure, encouraging readers to critically examine religious narratives and their cultural implications. Kersey Graves is best known for his controversial works on comparative religion, mythology, and freethought. Graves' writings challenged conventional religious beliefs and sought to promote a more rational and humanistic worldview. His works, including "The Biography of Satan," contributed to discussions on the evolution of religious ideas and the role of mythology in shaping cultural beliefs. The Biography of Satan is a lovely collection of lore, logic, and philosophy, dating to the middle of the rational days of the 19th century. Within this work, Kersey Graves lays waste to the doctrine of eternal Hell and the very concept of a Satan, claiming that it is, within proper tradition, the Christian god himself who is the architect of evil and suffering. With numerous references to linguistics, pagan lore, and then-modern historical science, Graves' work deserves far more attention from the world at large; and for those interested in the occult, and in magic, the comprehension of proper demonology requires such concepts to be understood.

  A geneticist and internationally recognized anti-racism educator provides a powerful, science-based rebuttal to common fallacies about human difference. 
   
   
    
  Well-meaning physicians, parents, and even scientists today often spread misinformation about what biology can and can't tell us about our bodies, minds, and identities. In this accessible, myth-busting book, geneticist Shoumita Dasgupta draws on the latest science to correct common misconceptions about how much of our social identities are actually based in genetics. 
   
   
    
  Dasgupta weaves together history, current affairs, and cutting-edge science to break down how genetic concepts are misused and how we can approach scientific evidence in a socially responsible way. With a unifying and intersectional approach disentangling biology from bigotry, the book moves beyond race and gender to incorporate categories like sexual orientation, disability, and class. Where Biology Ends and Bias Begins is an invaluable, empowering resource for biologists, geneticists, science educators, and anyone working against bias in their community.

  Pediatricians say you should but it's okay if you don't. The hospital says, "Breast is best," but sends you home with formula "just in case." Your sister-in-law says, "Of course you should!" Your mother says, "I didn't, and you turned out just fine." Celebrities are photographed nursing in public, yet breastfeeding mothers are asked to cover up in malls and on airplanes. Breastfeeding is a private act, yet everyone has an opinion about it. How did feeding our babies get so complicated? 
   
   
   
  Journalist and infant health advocate Kimberly Seals Allers breaks breastfeeding out of the realm of "personal choice" and shows our broader connection to an industrialized food system that begins at birth, the fallout of feminist ideals, and the federal policies that are far from family friendly. The Big Letdown uncovers the multibillion-dollar forces battling to replace mothers' milk and the failure of the medical establishment to protect infant health. Weaving together research and personal stories with original reporting on medicine, big pharma, and hospitals, Kimberly Seals Allers shows how mothers and babies have been abandoned by all the forces that should be supporting families from the start—and what we can do to help.

  Transforming Race Conversations...

  A guide to supporting our emergence from the tight grip of race discomfort. 
   
   
   
  If we are to address the injustice of racism, we need to have the "race conversation." All too often, however, attempts at this conversation are met with silence, denial, anger, or hate. This is largely because the construct of race resides not only in our minds, but principally in the body. In order to have productive conversations about race and racism, a paradigm shift is needed—one which will empower us to remain present and embodied, rather than constricted with fear, regardless of our racial identities. 
   
   
   
  Here, psychotherapist Eugene Ellis explores what is needed for this bodily shift to occur as he unpacks the visceral experience of the race conversation. He offers a trauma-informed, neurophysiological approach that emphasizes resourcing, body awareness, mindfulness, and healing. Transforming Race Conversations is essential for therapy practitioners as well as anyone looking to engage more effectively in the ongoing dialogue around race.
