Sinossi

In "Mexican Archæology," Thomas Athol Joyce meticulously investigates the rich tapestry of Mexico's ancient civilizations, delving into their artistic, cultural, and historical legacies. The book is a quintessential exploration woven with analytical depth and rich descriptions, reflecting Joyce's command of the archaeological field. Each chapter seamlessly integrates meticulous research with vivid illustrations, making the complex interplay of Mexico's pre-Columbian societies accessible and engaging. Joyce situates his study within a broader intellectual tradition, drawing on both scientific inquiry and historical narratives, thus highlighting the significance of Mexican archæology in understanding human civilization more broadly. Thomas Athol Joyce, a distinguished archaeologist and museum curator, was profoundly influenced by his extensive fieldwork in Latin America and his passion for indigenous cultures. His academic pursuits and firsthand experiences in the burgeoning field of archaeology provide a solid foundation for this work. Joyce's dedication to understanding and preserving the cultural heritage of Mexico mirrors his belief in the importance of archaeology as a bridge connecting past and present societies. I highly recommend "Mexican Archæology" to scholars, students, and enthusiasts alike. This work is not only a scholarly text but also a profound homage to the enduring legacy of Mexico's ancient peoples, prompting readers to appreciate and reflect upon the complexities of human civilization.

    Two of the world's greatest crises, systemic racism and environmental destruction, share the same origin story. The two are rooted in economic forces that exploit and oppress both people and land. 
     
     
     
    Pastor David Swanson shows how we have failed our God-given duty as caretakers of creation and how that failure has resulted in the exploitation of people and the extraction of natural resources. Racial and ecological injustice share the same root cause—greed—that turns people and the natural world into commodities that are only valued for their utility. Yet Christians have the capacity to live in a way that nurtures racial and environmental justice simultaneously, honoring people and places in dynamic relationship with our Creator God. Swanson shows how we can become communities of caretakers, the way to restore our relationship with creation and each other, and the holistic justice that can result.

    • The truth about alpha brainwaves — and how to access them 
    • How to tune your nervous system for clarity, flow, and focus 
    • Ancient practices that align your mind, body, and energy 
    • Why real leadership begins in silence, not struggle 
    • A practical toolkit to live from the alpha state — every day 
      
    Whether you're an entrepreneur, artist, seeker, or leader in the making, this book will help you stop performing and start tuning. 
      
    Becoming Alpha isn't about changing who you are. It's about remembering the rhythm you were born with.

    Most people know of witches from the movies. Horror films with evil, cackling old women dressed in black, mixing potions and lotions and bringing doom to her victims. 
     
    The truth is in fact, as normal, far from the Hollywood version. Most of this false reality comes from religious intolerance over the centuries. Witchcraft was a threat to established religion and can be dated right back into the Bible itself. 
     
    Church propaganda spread stories and fear among the masses. This in turn brought down violence upon those practising witchcraft. Hounded out of town, victimised or even burned alive or drowned, the role of those practising the old arts was not one to be jealous of. If there was any true horror, then it was for the witches themselves. 
     
    Their craft is as old as history and it holds a great many truths, both natural and psychological. It finds it’s origins in ancient techniques of natural healing and a uniting of the natural world with that of humanity. Many of the discoveries made by witches are now common practice in homeopathy. 
     
    So what is the real truth? Did witches deal with the devil? Did they eat their victims? Did they mix their special brews in big black cauldrons? It’s time to find out.
