  What if virginity wasn't a fact—but a strategy? 
  In a world obsessed with chastity, control, and feminine mystique, The Virgin Strategist exposes the raw mechanics behind one of society's most powerful illusions: the untouchable woman. This isn't a book about sex—it's about the absence of it, and the social currency that "not giving in" can generate. 
  From purity culture to OnlyFans rebrands, this book explores how modern women wield the idea of virginity—real or fabricated—as a weapon of control, manipulation, and upward mobility. Whether she's a born-again good girl, a celibate tease, or a single mother suddenly setting moral boundaries, the Virgin Strategist isn't lying. She's surviving. She's performing. And she's winning. 
  Drawing from psychology, sociology, and unapologetic real-world case studies, this brutal analysis dives into:How celibacy can command more power than sexThe female fear of being "too available"Faux purity as brandingLong-distance virginity performancesEmotional withholding and religious re-inventionAnd the emotional toll of always pretending to be "clean" 
  The Virgin Strategist is not for the faint-hearted. It is for readers who want to understand the game behind the innocence, the strategy behind the smile, and the power behind the "no." 
  Dead serious. Laughably real. Disturbingly true.

  Collective Souls weaves generational theory, astrology and mythic storytelling into a groundbreaking exploration of how time moves through us. Drawing on the cyclical insights of Pluto's transits and the archetypes of each generation, astrologer and educator Daljeet Peterson offers a map for navigating the cultural, psychological and spiritual crisis of our age. 
  As America celebrates its 250th birthday and Pluto returns to the very place it stood in 1776, we find ourselves at a crossroads of history and soul. Polarization deepens, institutions falter, and meaning seems harder to find. But what if there's a deeper pattern behind the chaos? 
  From the prophetic fire of the Baby Boomers, to the bridge-building resilience of Generation X,  the visionary drive of the Millennials, and the rising transformative spirit of Gen Z, this book reveals how each generation carries a vital piece of the collective puzzle—and how their dynamic interplay shapes the soul of history itself. 
  Part cultural cartography, part spiritual guide book, Collective Souls invite you to step into a deeper awareness of your place in time. It is a book for anyone seeking to orient themselves in the great turning of the age.

Teaching should be varied which can make it possible for the 'high and noble powers of the mind' to have a chance to progress. Educators of youth should be gentle and loving and have self control. Her idea of creating a Christian educational system is detailed in this book. - Summary by Michele Eaton

  Shortlisted for the EAA Book Prize and the Current Archaeology Book of the Year Award
  The Picts have fascinated for centuries. They emerged c. ad 300 to defy the might of the Roman empire only to disappear at the end of the first millennium ad, yet they left major legacies. They laid the foundations for the medieval Scottish kingdom and their captivating carved stones are some of the most eye-catching yet enigmatic monuments in Europe. Until recently the Picts have been difficult to trace due to limited archaeological investigation and documentary sources, but innovative new research has produced critical new insights into the culture of a highly sophisticated society which defied the might of the Roman Empire and forged a powerful realm dominating much of northern Britain.
  This is the first dedicated book on the Picts that covers in detail both their archaeology and their history. It examines their kingdoms, culture, beliefs and everyday lives from their origins to their end, not only incorporating current thinking on the subject, but also offering innovative perspectives that transform our understanding of the early history of Scotland.

  Black Foundation Reconsidered -...

  This is a diagnostic. It does not offer comfort, and it does not assign blame to outside forces. Instead, it makes a case that is increasingly difficult to avoid: the primary obstacle facing Black communities in America and across the African Diaspora is not racism. It is the systematic destruction of a collective worldview, a shared doctrine rooted in language, that once held communities together and gave individuals the mental architecture to act with purpose. That foundation was dismantled. And until it is rebuilt from the inside, no amount of rights, aid, or representation will close the gap. 
  There is also something practical here: a framework for thinking differently. It draws a precise distinction between racism and xenophobia, two phenomena that are routinely conflated, with real consequences for how people navigate institutions, workplaces, and social environments. It introduces the concept of "rethinking," a deliberate psychological practice of pausing before fast conclusions, as a survival skill capable of interrupting cycles of violence, failure, and self-defeat. And it offers a model for rebuilding the family and community from within, not as a waiting game for external political permission, but as an act of internal will. 
  Some readers will be uncomfortable. The victimhood script that dominates mainstream Black public discourse is challenged here. So are the limits of modern liberalism and the political frameworks that have promised much and delivered little structural change. None of it flatters. But it does something rarer: it takes the community seriously enough to demand more from it.
