Sinopsis

"Ridicule History" explores the underappreciated power of ridicule as a tool in shaping social and political landscapes throughout history. It examines how humor, satire, and mockery have been used strategically to influence public opinion and challenge authority. The book highlights that ridicule isn't just entertainment; it's a potent force with both positive and negative potential. For example, lampoons during the French Revolution helped fuel societal change, while satirical cartoons served as propaganda during World War II. 

 
The book progresses by first dissecting the anatomy of ridicule, delving into the psychological factors that make it effective. It then presents historical case studies, analyzing pivotal moments where ridicule played a defining role. Finally, it considers the lasting impact of ridicule on contemporary society, exploring its influence on political campaigns and the perpetuation of social norms. By understanding these mechanisms, readers can better navigate the complexities of modern political and social discourse.

Dialoguing with Our Inner...

Ph.D. Richard C. Schwartz

In this 2024 conversation with Travis Glen Sebera, Schwartz explores what the Internal Family Systems [IFS] model encompasses and how healing our own inner world can create ripples of compassion that extend from ourselves to our communities. These internal parts of the self can debilitate us with paralyzing fear, shame, feelings of not being good enough, and other enfeebling influences. Schwartz describes the goal of IFS is to help the internal parts of the self to transform from their extreme states into who they're designed to be. He gives several examples of how he works with people such as care-givers who also become incapacitated by arthritis, or highly driven corporate executives who are overly dependent on achieving goals, as well as working with those who suffer from shame. He acknowledges that these parts are neither good nor bad and each can have wonderful qualities. His work is to encourage people to listen to these parts with spaciousness and personal curiosity so as to ultimately live a more balanced life.
Richard C. Schwartz, Ph.D. is the creator of the therapeutic model known as Internal Family Systems [IFS] and founder of the IFS Institute which offers training for professionals and the general public. Formerly an associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Illinois at Chicago and later at Northwestern University, he is currently on the faculty of Harvard Medical School. He is the author of many books including:No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma, and Restoring Wholeness with The Internal Family Systems Model (Sounds True 2021)

God or Nature Whatever -...

Sophia Blackwell

God or Nature, Whatever is what happens when a philosophy grad student decides to explain Baruch Spinoza—the 17th-century lens grinder who got canceled by every major religion—using sarcasm, swearing, and a deeply unhealthy relationship with Euclidean geometry. 
Sophia Blackwell takes Spinoza's Ethics (a book structured like a math textbook, only less fun) and translates it into plain, hilarious, possibly heretical English. The result? A philosophical roast that actually teaches you something. 
Inside, you'll learn: 
Why Spinoza thought God was just... everything (yes, including you, your dog, and that one sock you keep losing). 
How he managed to be too atheist for the religious and too God-obsessed for the atheists. 
Why your free will is fake but your bad decisions are still kind of your fault. 
How to find spiritual peace by accepting you're a temporary Mode of an infinite Substance and not special at all (yay!). 
And why Einstein loved Spinoza while religious authorities mostly wanted him yeeted into oblivion. 
This book is for anyone who's ever read a sentence from a philosopher and thought, “Why are you like this?” It’s also for readers who like their deep metaphysical insights wrapped in existential dread and memes. 
Perfect for fans of irreverent nonfiction, people pretending to understand Spinoza, and anyone who’s been excommunicated for asking too many questions
