        The Akedah or Sacrifice of Isaac

        A History of Interpretation

        by Dr. Stephen J. Vicchio

        Also available (All rights available): Mala'ika—Angels in Islam Evil and Suffering in the Bible Evil in World Religions   The Akedah or Sacrifice of Isaac is a history of how the Old Testament passage at Genesis 22:1-19, called the Akedah or the Sacrifice of Isaac, has been interpreted over time in Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

        From Primates to Politicians

        A Journey from the Political Side of Animals to the Animal Side of Politicians

        by Juan Manuel Muñoz

        From Primates to Politicians is a fascinating journey between the animal side of the human species and politicians. It explores the reason for many human behaviors based on the evolution of species, and the resources necessary for life. The book explores the bowels of politics: an art understood and dominated by economic power, and expert manipulators of political marketing, to put together pieces of a dynamic, changing puzzle of infinite size. The content is divided into three parts. A first part, in which the author reviews the concept of primatology, evolution and the power relations between living beings. In the second part, the evolution of human societies, and the foundations of conservatism and liberalism, are explored. This leads to propose: "the evolutionary theory of politics." To conclude the work, the author closes with the analysis of multiple current events, and raises some predictions about the global political environment.

        Revolution

        When Strange Becomes Normal, and Logic Gets Turned on its Head

        by Juan Manuel Muñoz

        Revolution, far from being an incendiary speech, is a fun and entertaining book exploring the dynamics of social power amid dilemmas that range from astrophysics to the ethics behind financial mischiefs.   Through this dark path, we can discover a tangle of factors that move the domain of political and economic power in the strangest ways, distorting our perception of reality, commodifying the information we receive and entering the gloom of our emotions.   The concept of revolution is deepened as a product of complex situations in which the scientific approach and critical thinking are necessary tools to achieve any successful revolution.

He also explains his work as a healer, psychic and paranormal investigator, showing how Christians can safely and effectively use their own God-given psychic gifts to help others.

        Peace for Our Planet

        by Dr. Roya Akhavan

        This book tells the story of a new historical dialectic in the world between two parallel processes: constructive and destructive. It traces the growth of a constructive collective consciousness that has delegitimized the root causes of war, including racism, nationalism, religious strife, gender inequality and extremes of wealth and poverty. Those who have profited from these divisive attitudes are bound to take a last stand. Yet, they are fighting a losing battle. Amidst the blinding haze generated by the accelerated collapse of these outworn mindsets and institutions, this book brings into focus the forward march of the constructive process toward peace, and the powerful role each of us can play in its realization.

        A Sapiens Conundrum

        Surviving Our Survival Instincts

        by David Walter

        Pollution, famine, pandemic diseases, record-setting weather events, social unrest and cultural inequalities—all are the result of the collective choices humans make. Our drive to survive, combined with our unique abiltiies, has turned us into the greatest threat to our future. Drawing from seminal research about the rise of the Anthropocene age, David Walter presents a clear, elegant view of how we got ourselves into this conundrum.   Grounded in a deep understanding of science and cultural history, Walter masterfully tells the story of how Homo sapiens moved from one challenge to the next with the best of intentions while not comprehending the consequences. Encompassing our tribal origins to our current atomic age, from the impulse to shape stones for tools to the development of internal combustion, this sweeping narrative ultimately offers a rational route toward a sustainable, liveable future and the role each of us can play in that transformation.
