The Capitalist Economy and its Prosthetics - Necessity Evolution and Dilemmas of a Brotherhood

Gerhard H. Wächter

Sinopse

Notwithstanding its ruthless dynamics, the capitalist economy has the flaw of deficient employment-generating spending. This leads to unemployment of non-owners, individual suffering, social unrest and it undermines military strength. To deal with these issues, states use prosthetic policies, artificial transfers to the productive economy and to non-owners. But the funding of such prosthetic policies - through violent wealth appropriation abroad, protectionism, war, domestic expropriation and taxation, debt and money creation - is caught in dilemmas, while politicians are caught between non-solutions. According to Gerhard H. Wächter, the history of capitalist society is largely the history of this dilemmatic brotherhood.

The Prison of Perspective

Rudolph Bader

A chance encounter, a road accident, an air crash, a hold-up at a bank:How do such events connect people?How do people see the situations from their different perspectives?Three narrative strands follow the lives of three individuals – Peter, Cathy and Ivan – through the second half of the 20th century, from post-war austerity and mediocrity in the 1950s and 1960s to the fast-moving life-style of the present decade, whereby the plot is embedded in real events of the period. The three biographies intersect at crucial points, which reveals their internal landscapes and the different ways of understanding reality. Things are not always what they seem, and we do not always know the whole truth.Playing with various time-levels, this novel of the mind deals primarily with potential fallacies of perception, sexual awakening, emotional exploitation and the proximity of death.How do we store the memorable events in our lives?And how do we cope with these memories as we grow older?

The Kybalion - The Forbidden...

Three Initiates, William Walker...

“The All is Mind; the Universe is Mental.” With this bold statement, The Kybalion, attributed to the mysterious Three Initiates, invites readers into a world where ancient wisdom meets universal truth. First published in 1908, the book distills the essence of Hermetic philosophy, a tradition linked to Hermes Trismegistus, the legendary figure seen as a bridge between human consciousness and divine knowledge. 
At its core, The Kybalion presents the Seven Hermetic Principles: Mentalism, Correspondence, Vibration, Polarity, Rhythm, Cause and Effect, and Gender. These principles are described as the laws governing both the visible and invisible realms. By understanding them, seekers can align with cosmic patterns, deepen self-mastery, and unlock hidden dimensions of existence. 
This edition expands upon the original text with valuable insights: commentary and reflections, historical context, advanced Hermetic practices such as Alchemy, Astrology, and Theurgy, comparative analysis with other spiritual traditions, and a Hermetic Q&A for further clarity. 
Emerging during a wave of fascination with mysticism in the early 20th century, The Kybalion quickly became a cornerstone of Western esotericism. The anonymity of its authors only adds to its allure, leaving readers to wonder at their identities and sources. More than a book, The Kybalion remains a guide to uncovering not only the mysteries of the universe but also the depths of one’s own mind.

Shepherd's Sight - A Farming Life

Barbara McLean

A restorative and resonant memoir of a year in the life of an aging shepherd 
 
 
 
For fifty years, Barbara McLean has tended a flock of Border Leicester sheep on her small Ontario farm, Lambsquarters. In Shepherd's Sight she shares the crises, pleasures, and challenges of farm life over the course of a year. Now in her seventies, McLean faces a new problem: how much longer she can continue with the physically taxing work that is her central source of meaning and satisfaction. 
 
 
 
Through her unsentimental gaze, we witness the highs and heartbreaks of delivering and rearing lambs, the shearing and spinning of wool, the wildlife in the woods (and occasionally in the house), and the garden produce moving from seed to harvest to table. Even after half a century on this land, McLean is still making fresh observations, and she shares them in evocative, elegant prose. As she moves through the calendar year, she also reflects on years past, offering a long view on climate, stewardship, and agriculture. 
 
 
 
With its vivid description and absorbing storytelling, Shepherd's Sight offers an unforgettable glimpse of a life lived on the land.
