by Frédéric Joi (Author)Jesus' good fortune is that he was born before Freud. Let's imagine for a moment that the psychoanalytical reading grid is applied to the character described by the Gospels. What would you think of a person who claimed to anyone who would listen: "The Father is in me and I am in the Father"? What would you say if your neighbor came knocking at your door to inform you that "he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life"?Was Jesus crazy? Based on the Gospels, the author follows this self-proclaimed "son of God" in his actions and words and discovers that he can be diagnosed as a "megaparanoid", that is, a paranoid producing mythical projections. But the difficulty increases a notch when we know that Jesus fascinated ever larger crowds, over countless generations. Hence these other questions: what psychic illness did those who believed him suffer from? How was this love between madmen possible, between a megaparanoid shepherd and those he rightly called his sheep? Number of Pages: 178 Dimensions: 0.38 x 8.07 x 5.71 IN

There’s an invasive species in our oceans: Plasticus maritimus. It’s a threat to our world. What is it? What can we do about it? You can download the Parent & Teacher Companion Guide here. When she was young, biologist Ana Pêgo didn’t play in a backyard, but on a beach. She walked along the shore, looked at tide pools, and collected fossils. As she grew older, Pêgo noticed a new species at the seaside: plastic. She decided to collect it, study it, and give it a Latin name—Plasticus maritimus—to warn people of its dangers to our planet. Inspired by Pêgo’s life’s work, and filled with engaging science and colorful photographs, this foundational look at ocean plastics explains why they are such an urgent contemporary issue. Pêgo tells us how plastics end up in our rivers, lakes, and oceans, shares plastic’s chemical composition and physical properties, and offers a field guide to help readers identify and understand this new invasive species in all its forms, from the obvious (fishing nets and water bottles) to the unfamiliar (tiny, clear particles called microplastics). Finally, she offers a critical look at our current “solutions” to plastic contamination and in her most important proposal—REVOLUTIONIZE—calls for deep changes in our habits, motivating young and old alike to make a difference, together. An artificial and almost indestructible species, Plasticus maritimus deserves to have its days numbered! Together, we can send it packing. Published in Partnership with the David Suzuki Institute. Ana Pêgo is a marine biologist and is involved in environmental education projects that combine science and art to raise people’s awareness about the need to conserve the ocean. She created Plasticus Maritimus — an ongoing project and Facebook page, where she gives regular updates on her findings.

There was a moment in life where I knew...this is what I was born to do! And I had to tell my mom...No, I'm not on the dope.
"So while the assumption when I was born was that I was or would grow up to be a neurotypical heterosexual boy, that whole idea didn't really pan out long term."In this candid, first-of-its-kind memoir, Laura Kate Dale recounts what life is like growing up as a gay trans woman on the autism spectrum. From struggling with sensory processing, managing socially demanding situations and learning social cues and feminine presentation, through to coming out as trans during an autistic meltdown, Laura draws on her personal experiences from life prior to transition and diagnosis, and moving on to the years of self-discovery, to give a unique insight into the nuances of sexuality, gender and autism, and how they intersect. Charting the ups and downs of being autistic and on the LGBT spectrum with searing honesty and humour, this is an empowering, life-affirming read for anyone who's felt they don't fit in.
When I was a little girl, my mom used to say that she didn't want anything for Christmas. How boring and depressing. However, now that I have a family of my own, I find myself answering that same question, the same way. And I totally get it. What do you want for Christmas?
She’s adorable and she’s brilliant… enjoy the Best of Brielle!
In an orderly and just world, religion would be just a cosmic vending machine. Unpredictable suffering makes true virtue possible.
When I was born, my mom, a dabbler in the mystic, swore off astrology because she wanted her children to lead their own independent lives, free of the impulse to shape themselves according to some arbitrary sign. I am forever grateful for that, but…

Called into the headmistress's office on the first day. Wonderful. -------------- Freezing cold winters, constant hunger: This was the life of a homeless orphan. This was my life. Then I got the letter. I've been on the streets since I was born. It got very rough after my aunt got sick and died. But I made do. The streets of New York city can very unforgiving, especially when times get desperate. Like in winter. At least I never had to worry about the cold. But then I got hurt. Things were looking very bad. Then Chance showed up with the letter. The letter that said I was misborn of the fae. A bastard, but the magic still counted. The letter that said I'd been accepted into Titania Academy. When the magic blood of the fae runs through your veins, they will find you, no matter what. So I get to the school. The Faerie Academy Chance said was soooo great. And before I even step one toe on the ground, these girls are doing double takes and giggling behind their backs at me and I just want to plant my fist in their faces. Then I get upstairs to my dorm room and find some Barbie doll is bullying a girl. Then she mouths off at me, giving me attitude. Well, that was it. I couldn't hold back. I punched her. Yeah, I did it. Called into the headmistress's office on the first day.

I thought I could save the world. I thought that protecting those around me from hurt and pain was what I was born to do. She made me feel that way. Ava Links, the little girl who was too fucking stubborn for her own good. The little girl who absorbed the hurt and pain of everyone around her and tried to bring sunshine to them all. The little girl who didn’t give a damn if people picked on her about wearing a crown and tutu every day. A little girl who somehow looked at me, expecting—no, damn near demanding—I protect her. I saw the pain she hid, and as I grew older, I understood that pain. The pain of being so much to so many that there is really never a “you”. I took control of my life... I had to get away from everyone who pulled at me in order to claim myself. When I became the man I was destined to be, I began to live. Then, one drunken night, Ava Links, no longer a little girl, said the right damn thing to me, and everything changed. After seven years of fucking her while home on leave with no expectations, now my life is out of control… One bad dream, one I love you, one night of pushing her the hell out of my life, one drummer stealing her heart, and one explosion took everything away. Lies are told. Lies are unraveling. Lies are going to destroy. These are my truths. Haven’t read this series yet?
