Synopsis

In "Collectanea Hermetica," William Wynn Westcott presents a comprehensive compilation of Hermetic texts that explore the intricate relationship between esoteric philosophy and mystical experience. The work spans a variety of sources, including translations and original texts, all contributing to an understanding of the Hermetic tradition as it relates to magic, alchemy, and spirituality. Westcott'Äôs literary style melds meticulous scholarship with an accessible prose, making profound metaphysical concepts approachable for both scholars and lay readers. This anthology serves as a pivotal entry point into the rich tapestry of Hermetic thought, indicative of the late 19th-century revival of interest in occultism and secret societies, particularly within the context of the burgeoning Theosophical movement. William Wynn Westcott was not only a leading figure in the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn but also a physician and a scholar deeply entrenched in various esoteric traditions. His diverse background in medicine and his earnest passion for the occult informed his work on "Collectanea Hermetica," as Westcott sought to synthesize knowledge from various paradigms to enlighten contemporary readers about ancient wisdom. His scholarly approach draws on both historical context and personal mystical insights, resulting in a text that is both authoritative and deeply personal. For those intrigued by the arcane and the mystical, "Collectanea Hermetica" is an indispensable resource that promises to enrich the reader'Äôs understanding of Hermeticism. Whether you are an established scholar of the occult or a curious seeker, Westcott's compilation invites you to embark on an intellectual journey through the profound and often hidden truths of the Hermetic tradition.

    Based on the largest near-death experience study in history, involving 3,000 people from diverse backgrounds and religious traditions, including nonbelievers, God and the Afterlife presents startling evidence that a Supreme Being exists—and there is amazing consistency about what he is like. 
    In his bestselling book Evidence of the Afterlife, Dr. Jeffrey Long showed us that there is a strong scientific case for life after death. Now, he goes further, revealing evidence that God is real. At the Near Death Experience Research Foundation, Dr. Long studied the stories of thousands of people who have journeyed to the afterlife. Though there are a wide variety of differences in how people experience NDEs—some see a bright light, others go through a tunnel, still others experience a review of their life—he discovered that many of the accounts shared a remarkably similar description of God; a Supreme Being who radiated love and grace. 
    Expanding on his analysis begun in Evidence of the Afterlife, God and the Afterlife is the first intensive exploration of the people who have reported going to the frontier of heaven, met God, and have returned to share their journey. Groundbreaking and profound, it provides new insight into the human experience and expands our notions of mortality, offering possibility, hope, and comfort.

    1 in 4 people capable of giving birth will have an abortion in their lifetime.  Abortion is common. It’s everyday. It’s healthcare. Abortion is a moral choice for people who despite the shouting voices around them understand that they have the ability to control their fertility the way people with uteruses have for thousands of years and as they will continue to do for thousands of years to come, no matter the barriers thrown in their path. These people understand that being human means controlling the trajectory of their lives. When faced with a dangerous or unwanted pregnancy, they gather the strength to put away the self-serving opinions of others and listen to their hearts.  Undue Burden argues for these people and for abortion as a moral good using the framework of Reproductive Justice. It lays out why it’s no longer enough for us to say we’re pro-choice, but instead we must proudly proclaim to be pro-abortion. It illustrates how when we force people to continue pregnancies and bring children into the world without providing any of the support systems to help sustain them, we are creating conditions of misery. Through the lens of Reproductive Justice, Undue Burden explains why anti-abortion extremists actually want this misery to exist.  It's time to reclaim the moral high ground from the anti-abortion movement. Undue Burden utilizes the tools of Reproductive Justice to allow pro-abortion advocates to: Use Christian doctrine to refute extremist ChristiansBuild intersectional coalitions between diverse groups Establish abortion care as necessary healthcareCenter the voices of those most affected by anti-abortion laws: Black people, POC, Indigenous people, people with disabilities, LGBTQ+ people, and the economically disadvantaged.Critique why “pro-choice” is no longer the way forward.Examine how and why abortion was criminalized in the first place.Understand the various forces of oppression including racism, ableism, misogyny, white supremacy, heteronormality, and how they intersect with the anti-abortion movement. Author Dr. DeShawn Taylor tells stories of her life, medical training, and practice to center the everyday situations of everyday people struggling with forces outside their control like unaffordable childcare, lack of access to health care, insufficient paid time off, and unsafe communities. She argues that only when we reframe abortion as a social justice issue can we take back the moral high ground from the extremist Christians and “family values” politicians who have controlled the conversation for far too long.  Dr. Taylor shows that ensuring that all people have the right to not have children, have children, and to parent children in safe and healthy communities is the only way to remove the undue burdens that plague our most vulnerable communities.
