    This book contains the following books:  
    Mirror, Mirror - The mirror, both literal and figurative, serves as a powerful symbol in this context. It is where we first encounter our reflection, yet it can also distort our sense of self, making us question whether we truly see who we are or merely a distorted version of reality. Body image—the way we perceive and feel about our physical appearance—often influences our thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. When this perception becomes negative, it can trigger harmful behaviors, such as restrictive eating, excessive exercising, or binge eating, leading to eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. 
    You’re Worth It - Believing in your own value is not an act of arrogance; it is an act of self-respect. When you truly believe in your worth, you stop settling for less than you deserve and start making choices that reflect the greatness within you. It is the foundation of every success, every achievement, and every meaningful connection you will make along the way. This belief becomes your driving force, propelling you through challenges and helping you navigate the inevitable obstacles life presents.

    What if the beings we call "aliens" are not invaders, but messengers from higher realms of consciousness, warning us against the dead-end path we are racing toward? What if the true threat to humanity is not an alien invasion, but rather our surrender to machines? And what if the antidote resides in wisdom we abandoned long ago? 
     
    Alien Goddess enters this urgent conversation with a perspective no one else is offering. Drawing on contemporary accounts of contact phenomena, esoteric texts, and ancient mythologies, it asks what happens when a civilization replaces the sacred with the synthetic. Who becomes the architect of human destiny when the soul is written out of the equation? 
     
    Part I—The Messengers: UFOs investigates the possibility that UFO phenomena are visitations from consciousness realms within the liminal spaces of multidimensional realities. 
     
    Part II—The Message: AI critiques the promises of transhumanism and artificial intelligence (AI), exposing the confusion between artificial experiences and true spiritual evolution. 
     
    Part III—The Goddesses of Ascension offers an alternative in the initiatory wisdom of Goddess traditions. 
     
    Alien Goddess is both a warning and a map.

    The art of the confidence trick is a controversial craft that is as old as time itself. In the early years of civilization, unscrupulous folks bottled and peddled assortments of fake cures and potions. Snake oil salesmen aside, charlatans posed as mystical beings with supernatural powers, promising to end droughts and other misfortunes of the gullible with what were in reality parlor tricks and illusions.  
    	Indeed, throughout history, unabashedly brazen characters managed to make careers out of deception. 17th century Britain, for instance, was terrorized by William Chaloner, the most infamous serial counterfeiter and con artist of his time before he was ultimately bested by Sir Isaac Newton himself. The British trickster posed as a quack doctor and a clairvoyant who dispensed false fortunes (most likely via an early form of cold reading) and bogus healing antidotes, but these were bush-league frauds in comparison to one of his most renowned claims to fame: he once bribed four Jacobite sympathizers to crank out pamphlets regarding King James II's denunciation of His Royal Highness William, and later double-crossed his co-conspirators by tipping off the cops and swiftly decamping with the 1,000 reward.  
    	Confidence women were equally active players in such dirty, fixed games. Doris Payne was a professional pilferer of jewels whose unconventional vocation spanned six decades. Throughout all her hits across the United States, Europe, and Asia, Payne adhered to a simple, yet effective method of operation: she donned stylish, pricey clothes, singled out impressionable male shopkeepers and distracted them with flirtatious small talk, and secretly palmed jewelry with sleight-of-hand tricks. One of the most recent was Frank Abagnale, a career impersonator, former forger of bank checks turned FBI employee, and the subject of the 2002 film Catch Me If You Can.

    Quick Fixes - Drugs in America...

    Americans are in the midst of a world-historic drug binge. Opiates, amphetamines, benzodiazepines, marijuana, antidepressants, antipsychotics—across the board, consumption has shot up in the twenty-first century. At the same time, the United States is home to the largest prison system in the world, justified in part by a now zombified "war" on drugs. How did we get here? 
     
     
     
    Quick Fixes is a look at American society through the lens of its pharmacological crutches. Though particularly acute in recent decades, the contradiction between America's passionate love and intense hatred for drugs has been one of its defining characteristics for over a century. 
     
     
     
    Through nine chapters, each devoted to the modern history of a drug or class of drugs, Fong examines Americans' fraught relationship with psychoactive substances. As society changes it produces different forms of stress, isolation, and alienation. These changes, in turn, shape the sorts of drugs society chooses. 
     
     
     
    By laying out the histories, functions, and experiences of our chemical comforts, the hope is to help answer that ever perplexing question: what does it mean to be an American?
