Sinopse

Sun Worship explores the pervasive phenomenon of solar veneration across diverse cultures, revealing how the sun has been central to religious practices, mythologies, and artistic expressions throughout history. From ancient Egypt's Ra to the Inca's Inti, the book uncovers the profound influence of the sun on societal structures and core beliefs. It examines how prehistoric societies and ancient civilizations alike recognized the sun's life-giving power, shaping their rituals, iconography, and understanding of the natural world.

 
The book adopts a comparative approach, analyzing archaeological finds, ancient texts, and ethnographic studies to highlight both common themes and unique cultural variations in sun worship. For instance, beyond deities, the sun's symbolism extends into art and architecture, reflecting humanity's deep-seated reverence for celestial phenomena.

 
By connecting religion with art history and anthropology, Sun Worship provides a holistic understanding of solar veneration's cultural significance, progressing from the origins of sun worship to its lasting legacy in contemporary society. The book emphasizes the enduring significance of the sun in shaping human culture and belief, making it a valuable resource for understanding humanity's relationship with the cosmos.

    Claudia Black, along with over a dozen world-renowned psychotherapists including Pia Mellody, Peter Levine, Patrick Carnes, Richard Schwartz, Resmaa Menakem, and Tian Dayton, provides clinical, human-focused insights on healing, treatment, and recovery. 
    People today are struggling with an unprecedented rise in mental health concerns such as depression, eating disorders, substance abuse, behavioral addictions, suicide, and more. The greatest barriers to getting help are their shame, their self-loathing, and the belief that their situation is hopeless. Undaunted Hope destigmatizes these disorders and invites readers to take the first step to help: asking for it.  
    Through the narratives of twenty-one alumni from Meadows Behavioral Healthcare, world-renowned treatment facilities, readers may see themselves in parts of the stories—and ultimately find the courage to ask for help. Each storyteller reveals the origins of their struggles, the chaotic course of events leading up to treatment, what help entailed, and how their lives became richer, fuller, and more hopeful once they were willing to take the first step toward healing.  
    This urgent and timely book presents the stories of the therapeutic work that occurs in Meadows' facilities, recognizing that trauma is most often the underlying issue to people’s struggles. The groundbreaking work at The Meadows has been validated by the landmark Adverse Childhood Experience Study (ACEs) carried out by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for the past twenty-five years. These studies repetitively demonstrate the relationship of various traumas to mental health, substance abuse, and behavioral healthcare problems.

    Francisco Villa, better known as Pancho Villa, was a key figure in the Mexican Revolution, known for his transformation from a bandit to one of the revolution’s most influential commanders. Villa’s rise to prominence in the early 20th century marked him as a central player in the violent upheavals that reshaped Mexico’s political landscape. In 1911, Villa became a significant actor in the revolutionary violence that led to the overthrow of President Porfirio Díaz, ushering in Francisco I. Madero’s government. Villa, initially a leader of outlaw groups, aligned himself with Madero’s revolutionary cause, contributing to the instability that culminated in the fall of Díaz’s long-standing dictatorship. 
    The power dynamics in the revolution shifted again when General Victoriano Huerta attempted a right-wing coup in February 1913. As Madero’s government crumbled under Huerta’s forces, Madero led anti-Huerta soldiers in the Constitutionalist Army from 1913 to 1914. The civilian governor of Coahuila, Venustiano Carranza, became the leader of this anti-Huerta coalition. After Huerta’s eventual defeat and exile in July 1914, Villa and Carranza began to diverge politically. Villa, alongside other revolutionary leaders, assembled a gathering of generals in a bid to form a new government, but the resulting coalition was weak and inefficient. Though Villa and Emiliano Zapata, another revolutionary leader, were formally allied during this period, their partnership was largely theoretical. Both men supported land reform, but Villa’s reforms remained unrealized during his tenure of influence.
