    This is a collection of five alchemical tracts written by one of the most famous alchemists who was said to have discovered the Philosopher's Stone. In these writings Paracelsus attempts to educate the reader about the nature of the Philosopher's Stone and the scientific principles from which we can be assured of its existence and understand how it works. Like all alchemical tracts, the language is very cryptic and allegorical so as to be unintelligible to the unworthy.

    Fallacies are errors in reasoning that undermine the logical validity of an argument. They often appear persuasive on the surface, yet, when examined closely, they reveal flaws that can mislead individuals or entire groups. In an increasingly complex world, recognizing these logical fallacies is crucial for navigating discussions, making informed decisions, and engaging in rational debate. The ability to identify fallacious reasoning helps individuals critically evaluate arguments and avoid being swayed by flawed logic. 
    Among the various types of fallacies, the Slippery Slope fallacy is one of the most prevalent. It involves the assumption that a particular action will inevitably lead to extreme and undesirable consequences, often without sufficient evidence to support such a claim. This form of argument relies heavily on fear and exaggeration, suggesting that even a small step in a certain direction will set off a chain of events leading to catastrophic results. The Slippery Slope fallacy is commonly used in political, legal, and social debates, where the consequences of a decision or policy are often portrayed as extreme and far-reaching. 
    The importance of understanding fallacies like the Slippery Slope lies in their widespread use in everyday life. From political campaigns to media coverage and even casual conversations, individuals are often presented with arguments that rely on fallacious reasoning. These arguments, though compelling, can lead to faulty conclusions, influencing public opinion and decision-making in harmful ways. By recognizing the Slippery Slope fallacy, we can avoid being manipulated by fear-based rhetoric and instead focus on making decisions grounded in evidence and logical reasoning.

    From the New York Times best-selling author of The Private Lives of the Impressionists comes the first account of the women who loved Picasso―and who shaped his work far more than previously acknowledged. 
     
    Fernande Olivier, Olga Khokhlova, Marie-Thérèse Walter, Dora Maar, Françoise Gilot, and Jacqueline Roque. These six extraordinary women shared Pablo Picasso’s life and were instrumental in his career, yet they have long been dismissed as simply passive models or muses. 
     
    In Hidden Portraits, acclaimed author Sue Roe reveals that their lives were―without exception―remarkable. They each pursued their own ambitions in dance, writing, painting, and more. All six overcame significant challenges, including Picasso’s subterfuges and betrayals as well as the wider social turbulence of their time. In bringing them to vivid life, Roe traces the extent to which each influenced Picasso’s work, from his sketches to masterpieces like Guernica. Spanning seventy years, from bohemian early-twentieth-century Montmartre to the glittering Riviera in the 1920s, and from Paris under Nazi occupation to Picasso’s death, and beyond, Hidden Portraits reclaims a set of brilliant women and in the process rewrites a vital chapter in the history of modern art.

    “The Person Sitting in Darkness” by Mark Twain is a searing political satire that exposes the hypocrisy and brutality of imperialism at the turn of the 20th century. With his signature wit and razor-sharp critique, Twain challenges the moral justifications used by Western powers—especially the United States—in their global conquests. Written in 1901, this provocative essay attacks the exploitation of weaker nations under the guise of civilization and religion, making it as relevant today as it was over a century ago. A must-read for fans of political commentary, anti-imperialist literature, and Twain’s bolder, less-publicized works.
