Summary

Afterlife Beliefs explores humanity's enduring fascination with what happens after death, examining diverse perspectives on the soul, reincarnation, and the afterlife across various world religions and philosophical traditions. It delves into how different faiths envision realms like heaven, hell, and purgatory, illustrating how these beliefs shape our understanding of mortality and influence ethical frameworks. For example, some religions emphasize spiritual progression through multiple lives, while others focus on a final judgment. The book approaches this complex topic by first introducing core concepts such as karma and different models of the afterlife. It then systematically dedicates chapters to the specifics of afterlife beliefs in major religions, including Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. By drawing upon religious texts, theological scholarship, and historical accounts, Afterlife Beliefs highlights both the unique aspects and the common threads found within these diverse cosmologies. The book culminates in a comparative analysis, fostering a greater appreciation for the shared human quest to understand our place in the cosmos and the enduring nature of consciousness.

The Medieval Mind of C S Lewis -...

Jason M. Baxter

C. S. Lewis had one of the great minds of the twentieth century.
Many readers know Lewis as an author of fiction and fantasy literature, including the Chronicles of Narnia and the Space Trilogy. Others know him for his books in apologetics, including Mere Christianity and The Problem of Pain. But few know him for his scholarly work as a professor of medieval and Renaissance literature.
What shaped the mind of this great thinker? Jason Baxter argues that Lewis was deeply formed not only by the words of Scripture and his love of ancient mythology, but also by medieval literature. For this undeniably modern Christian, authors like Dante and Boethius provided a worldview that was relevant to the challenges of the contemporary world.
Here, readers will encounter an unknown figure to guide them in their own journey: C. S. Lewis the medievalist.

Partylist for Profit: How the...

A.A. Castor

Once designed to amplify the voices of farmers, laborers, and the underrepresented, the Philippine party-list system has now become the ultimate low-risk, high-reward investment for the well-connected. In Partylist for Profit: How the Rich Hijacked a System for the Poor, A.A. Castor peels back the glossy surface of legislative charity to expose the machinery of legalized profiteering, dynastic expansion, and quiet political laundering. 
With deadpan seriousness and a dose of dark humor, this book walks readers through the insider's playbook of how to build, fund, and quietly control a party-list with as little accountability—and as much profit—as possible. From choosing a vague advocacy ("OFWs" or "transport workers," anyone?) to securing alphabet-friendly names for ballot advantage, to recycling nominees across election cycles and repackaging greed as governance, this is not a how-to—this is a how-it's-done. 
Perfect for political junkies, aspiring operators, or just disillusioned citizens looking to finally understand why nothing ever changes, Partylist for Profit isn't just a book—it's a public service announcement disguised as satire. 
Learn how power is bought, maintained, and quietly passed down—not through revolution, but registration. After all, in today's politics, you don't need a platform. You just need a seat.
