Sinopse

"Sacred Female Figures" explores the often-overlooked roles of women in shaping religious history and thought across diverse cultures. It challenges the notion of women as silent figures by illuminating their significant contributions as goddesses, prophets, founders, and leaders. The book investigates how female spiritual figures influenced theology, rituals, and social structures.

 
It examines the prevalence of goddesses in ancient pantheons and the impact of female prophets and religious founders on various movements. The book navigates societal constraints that historically limited women's religious participation while highlighting periods where female authority thrived.

 
It also emphasizes how divine femininity manifests across cultures and religious traditions. By analyzing historical narratives and cross-cultural comparisons, "Sacred Female Figures" provides a fresh perspective on gender equality and religious leadership, influencing contemporary discussions. The book progresses by exploring ancient goddesses, female prophets, and women in religious institutions.

An engaging exploration into the enduring popularity of Dirty Dancing and its lasting themes of feminism, activism, and reproductive rights 
 
When Dirty Dancing was released in 1987, it had already been rejected by producers and distributors several times over, and expectations for the summer romance were low. But then the film, written by former dancer Eleanor Bergstein and starring Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze as a couple from two different worlds, exploded. Since then, Dirty Dancing’s popularity has never waned. The truth has always been that Dirty Dancing was never just a teen romance or a dance movie — it also explored abortion rights, class, and political activism, with a smattering of light crime-solving. 
 
In The Time of My Life, celebrated music journalist Andrea Warner excavates the layers of Dirty Dancing, from its anachronistic, chart-topping soundtrack, to Baby and Johnny’s chemistry, to Bergstein’s political intentions, to the abortion subplot that is more relevant today than ever. The film’s remarkable longevity would never have been possible if it was just a throwaway summer fling story. It is precisely because of its themes — deeply feminist, sensitively written — that we, over 30 years later, are still holding our breath during that last, exhilarating lift.

A socio-psychological look at what has formed our society and suggestions of where it is going seriously wrong. Planned development, demonstrated self-discipline, calm discussion with clear beliefs and community traditions enable stability within a growing worldwide society. Stable family and educational experiences are the key to each child's happy and successful development. Neo-liberal lax and soft society is destroying stability as well as our future. Previous guides such as politeness, manners, quality, and uncorrupted religion are just as relevant when we venture beyond neglect and doctrinal corruption.

The Shocking Truth about Digital Privacy - cover

In today’s hyper-connected world, privacy is often taken for granted—or worse, dismissed as an outdated concern. We live in an era where our personal data is treated as currency, constantly collected, analyzed, and monetized by corporations, governments, and cybercriminals alike. Every search query, online purchase, and social media interaction contributes to a vast digital profile that shapes how businesses market to us, how financial institutions assess us, and even how law enforcement monitors us. But how much do we really understand about who is collecting our data and for what purpose?  
  
Most people assume that their digital activities are relatively private—secured by passwords, encryption, and privacy settings. Yet, the reality is far more unsettling. Companies track our browsing habits even when we’re in “incognito” mode, apps request permissions far beyond what’s necessary, and smart devices listen in on conversations, all in the name of “improving user experience.” Governments worldwide deploy mass surveillance programs under the justification of national security, while hackers exploit weak security measures to access personal and financial information. Even when we willingly share details about our lives, such as through social media, we rarely consider the long-term consequences of this exposure.  
  
Perhaps the most alarming aspect of digital privacy erosion is how seamlessly it has integrated into our daily lives. From social media giants like Facebook and TikTok to search engines like Google, nearly every digital service we rely on operates under a business model that thrives on harvesting user data. The more these companies know about us—our habits, preferences, and even emotions—the better they can predict and manipulate our behavior. This is the foundation of surveillance capitalism, an industry built on turning our personal lives into profit.

There are a lot of books about writing out there. If you’re like most writers, you’ve just about read them all. But learning how to write (and organize and outline and plot and edit and save the cat and market a breakout book) is one thing. Making and living a sustainable creative life in the face of...everything...is an entirely different matter. To know how to do that, we need to take a look at what goes on between the lines of our lives as writers so that we can live them with maybe a little more thought and intention--no matter the many interior and exterior obstacles that can threaten to derail our purpose. 
In this companion book to her long-running podcast, Sara Zarr brings her sixteen-year publishing career and experience as a speaker, teacher, and mentor to a conversational and encouraging collection of hard-won insights about what it means not to just write (and perchance to publish), but to be a writer.
