Summary

Inmate Rights Explained explores the complex legal landscape surrounding the rights retained by incarcerated individuals within the correctional system. It tackles the critical question of whether imprisonment strips individuals of all rights, examining essential aspects like healthcare access, religious freedom, and protection from abuse. Understanding these rights is crucial, as they significantly impact an inmate's well-being, rehabilitation prospects, and eventual reintegration into society, while also raising profound questions regarding justice and human dignity. For example, the Eighth Amendment's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment offers some protection, but its interpretation in a prison setting remains contentious. The book uniquely bridges law, sociology, and political science to provide a holistic understanding. Beginning with a historical overview, it traces the evolution of legal standards governing inmate treatment before diving into specific rights. The book argues that while incarceration necessitates certain restrictions, fundamental rights persist and must be upheld to ensure humane treatment and promote successful rehabilitation. Each chapter examines a specific category of rights, such as healthcare or religious freedom, supported by legal cases, statutes, and monitoring reports. The book emphasizes the ongoing debates surrounding issues like balancing security concerns with religious practices, thus encouraging critical and informed discussions.

    We are much more than our personality type. The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self is an invitation to see ourselves as more than we believe we are, to learn and engage practices that liberate us from automatic patterns.  The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self is an invitation to see yourself as more than your personality type and engage in practices that liberate you from automatic patterns. Certified Narrative Enneagram teacher Sandra Smith, MDiv, has taught the Enneagram internationally as a tool for personal, professional, and spiritual development for over twenty-two years. She shows readers how to deepen their use of the Enneagram in support of their spiritual lives as well as psychological health.   With clarity and consistency, this book shows how to understand your Enneagram type without reinforcing the patterns of your type. The gift of the Enneagram is its accuracy to show us the motivations beneath behaviors and egoic patterns that limit us and keep us from growing. The Enneagram Map to Your Deeper Self discusses the makeup of these patterns and gives us a greater capacity to unhook from them. Free from these habits, we are able to live more mindfully and grow into our full dimensionality, becoming more of ourselves.   Smith provides a detailed teaching of the components of the Enneagram type structures along with type-specific practices to counter automatic patterns. Also included are contributions from a diverse range of Enneagram practitioners. With their help, Smith dives into the components of the Enneagram types to tease out the patterns and pitfalls preventing us from living our radiance. Prayers, poems, and practices beckon us out of our confining comfort zones and into witnessing and honoring our lives.

    Reality May Not Be What We...

    In this 2023 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Dr. Eisenberg discusses how the brain selectively filters our perception of reality through our personal histories, our beliefs, habits of mind, and our prejudices. It highlights the evidence that we are living in a “consensual realty” and our senses are reporting back to us only a very small portion of the greater reality. Eisenberg highlights the question of what consciousness is and where is it formed. He includes is the idea of an underlying reality for all of existence in a universal consciousness. He also uses the metaphor of an iceberg to help us understand that the reality we see is only a small part of the whole. He says, “The assumption that there's an independent physical reality external to us (which has been the operating assumption for the last couple of centuries in science) is breaking down. There is a much deeper, more profound level of reality.”  
    Eisenberg is the author of Inner Spaces: Parapsychological Exploration of the Mind (Musson Book Co. 1977) and Dream It to Do It: The Science and the Magic—Decoding Reality 2.0 (Syntrek® Inc. 2021)

    The Secret History of Food -...

    An irreverent, surprising, and entirely entertaining look at the little-known history surrounding the foods we know and love 
     
    Is Italian olive oil really Italian, or are we dipping our bread in lamp oil? Why are we masochistically drawn to foods that can hurt us, like hot peppers? Far from being a classic American dish, is apple pie actually . . . English? 
    “As a species, we’re hardwired to obsess over food,” Matt Siegel explains as he sets out “to uncover the hidden side of everything we put in our mouths.” Siegel also probes subjects ranging from the myths—and realities—of food as aphrodisiac, to how one of the rarest and most exotic spices in all the world (vanilla) became a synonym for uninspired sexual proclivities, to the role of food in fairy- and morality tales. He even makes a well-argued case for how ice cream helped defeat the Nazis. 
    The Secret History of Food is a rich and satisfying exploration of the historical, cultural, scientific, sexual, and, yes, culinary subcultures of this most essential realm. Siegel is an armchair Anthony Bourdain, armed not with a chef’s knife but with knowledge derived from medieval food-related manuscripts, ancient Chinese scrolls, and obscure culinary journals. Funny and fascinating, The Secret History of Food is essential reading for all foodies. 
    Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
