Synopsis

In "Auguste Comte and Positivism," John Stuart Mill offers a comprehensive examination of the philosophical framework proposed by Auguste Comte, the father of positivism. Mill's text is marked by a critical yet appreciative tone, demonstrating his engagement with Comte's ideas on science and society. He navigates through the intricacies of positivism, elucidating its core tenets while also addressing its implications for epistemology and ethical thought. This work is situated in the broader context of 19th-century Enlightenment ideals, reflecting Mill's commitment to empiricism and rationality while simultaneously grappling with the limitations of Comte's systematic approach to understanding social phenomena. John Stuart Mill, a prominent figure in classical liberalism, was heavily influenced by the intellectual milieu of his time, including the works of Jeremy Bentham and the evolution of scientific reasoning. His keen interest in social reform, derived from his background and personal experiences within a utilitarian household, guided his exploration of Comte'Äôs ideas. Mill'Äôs philosophical background and his advocacy for liberty and individuality informed his perspective on positivism, as he sought to reconcile scientific inquiry with ethical considerations. "Auguste Comte and Positivism" is a must-read for scholars and students alike who seek to understand the interplay between science, philosophy, and sociology. Mill'Äôs critical analysis not only enriches our comprehension of positivism but also offers valuable insights into the perennial questions of knowledge, progress, and human values. This book provides a pivotal lens through which to examine the evolution of social thought and is essential for anyone interested in the foundations of modern philosophy.

    Society was not built with the needs of Black women in mind. As a result, we learn that the only way to feel good about ourselves is to prioritize everyone else's needs over our own. We find our value in being the perfect partner, mother, daughter, employee, and friend. But that is exhausting. Instead of feeling good about how dope we are, we only feel good about what we do for others. 
     
     
     
    Supremacy culture teaches us to hate Black people, to hate women, and to especially hate Black women . . . except when they need us. So in a world where our service is required for acceptance, how could we ever feel good about ourselves while also giving the middle finger to systems of power? How can we live our best lives? The answer: Self-esteem. Self-esteem has been gatekept by the white and male supremacist delusions for far too long. It's time to put power where it actually belongs. 
     
     
     
    In Drink Water and Mind Your Business, Dr. Donna Oriowo helps listeners understand the basic foundations of self-esteem and offers real, meaningful solutions to feel like the most glorious and badass versions of themselves. Based on years of research and Dr. Donna's career as a licensed sex and relationship therapist, this book will help you set boundaries, prioritize your needs, understand your immense worth, and pursue a life that brings you pleasure and joy.

    The story of Christine Jorgensen, America's first prominent transsexual, narrated trans embodiment in the postwar era. Her celebrity, however, has obscured other mid-century trans narratives. Their erasure from trans history masks the ways race has figured prominently in the construction and representation of transgender subjects. In Black on Both Sides, C. Riley Snorton identifies multiple intersections between blackness and transness from the mid-nineteenth century to present-day anti-black and anti-trans legislation and violence. 
     
     
     
    Drawing on a varied archive of materials, Snorton attends to how slavery and the production of racialized gender provided the foundations for an understanding of gender as mutable. In tracing the genealogies of blackness and transness, Snorton follows multiple trajectories, from the medical experiments conducted on enslaved black women to the negation of blackness. 
     
     
     
    Revealing instances of personal sovereignty among blacks in the antebellum North that were mapped in terms of "cross dressing" and black literary works that express black men's access to the "female within," Black on Both Sides concludes with a reading of the fate of Phillip DeVine, who was murdered alongside Brandon Teena in 1993. Reconstructing these trajectories furthers our capacities to conceive more livable black and trans worlds.

    Since the latter part of the twentieth century, breakthroughs in science, like advancements in brain imaging, have sparked a growing fascination with the intersection of emotions and neurobiology. Researchers have come to acknowledge the close connection between the brain and the immune system, the detrimental impact of chronic stress on the human body, and the significant correlation between emotions and health issues such as heart disease. 
    Before this scientific awakening, there was an undue emphasis on academic intelligence by researchers. This bias ignored the reality that intelligence is not a reliable predictor of success and happiness. Instead, emotional intelligence emerges as a more accurate indicator of life trajectory. It encompasses psychological resilience, the ability to persevere in the face of challenges, impulse control, and social skills like empathy. 
    Contrary to earlier beliefs that emotional intelligence was an inherent trait, recent research has revealed it to be a capacity rather than an absolute characteristic. Nevertheless, the formative stage for emotional intelligence is primarily in early childhood. A baby receiving nurturing care is more likely to develop a positive outlook, while a neglected baby may struggle with challenges later in life. Although tendencies toward optimism or pessimism take root early, they can still evolve later on, influenced by one's social network, as emotions tend to be contagious. 
    It's crucial to recognize that complete control over emotions is not feasible. Emotions are a result of the brain processing external feedback and are not consciously regulated. However, individuals can control how they respond to their emotions. The initial step in effective emotional management is being aware of one's emotions, forming the foundation for emotional intelligence.
