Sometimes I Lie
Author: Alice Feeney
Publisher: Flatiron Books
ISBN: 1250144833
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
ALICE FEENEYS NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER “Boldly plotted, tightly knotted—a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous.” —AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me: 1. I’m in a coma. 2. My husband doesn’t love me anymore. 3. Sometimes I lie. Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can’t move. She can’t speak. She can’t open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn’t remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

Denationalizing Identities
Author: Wah Guan Lim
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501774417
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Denationalizing Identities explores the relationship between performance and ideology in the global Sinosphere. Wah Guan Lim's study of four important diasporic director-playwrights—Gao Xingjian, Stan Lai Sheng-chuan, Danny Yung Ning Tsun, and Kuo Pao Kun—shows the impact of theater on ideas of "Chineseness" across China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. At the height of the Cold War, the "Bamboo Curtain" divided the "two Chinas" across the Taiwan Strait. Meanwhile, Hong Kong prepared for its handover to the People's Republic of China and Singapore rethought Chinese education. As geopolitical tensions imposed ethno-nationalist identities across the region, these four dramatists wove together local, foreign, and Chinese elements in their art, challenging mainland China's narrative of an inevitable communist outcome. By performing cultural identities alternative to the ones sanctioned by their own states, they debunked notions of a unified Chineseness. Denationalizing Identities highlights the key role theater and performance played in circulating people and ideas across the Chinese-speaking world, well before cross-strait relations began to thaw.

Same Same but Different
Author: Marie Antoinette El-Helou
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1982296097
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
Have you ever wondered if there is more than meets the eye to mental illness than what the medical establishment offers? Have you ever wondered if maybe those voices could be real? Have you had strange phenomena happening to you making you wonder if you were crazy? The world is experiencing the biggest global shift ever known to mankind. Spiritual awakenings and psychic phenomena are becoming more common than ever before. The next step in our spiritual evolution is understanding the nature of the soul. Chances are you or someone close to you has been touched by mental health issues; whether you’ve been diagnosed or not, or have had great times of darkness and despair. Maybe you want to live a life of purpose and freedom and just can’t get there. Perhaps you’ve felt crazy because you’ve had unusual experiences in your life – apparently unexplainable ones. Perhaps you have gut feelings, strange occurrences and a pull to learn more about spiritual and esoteric subjects without knowing why. Perhaps you want to learn how to raise and use your intuition, or what your purpose is here on this planet! Within these pages, Marie shares stories of her personal journey and channelled information and activations from spiritual and galactic guides she has grown to know and love. Readers are offered an experience of solace, self -understanding and a deep integral shift, especially to those who have ever felt different to everybody else. The 12 keys (chapters) in this book offer an empathic way out of the mainstream medical views to a soul approach, also including a shamanic perspective. Each key has its own teaching and are designed to provide a deep intrapsychic activation and healing. Following over 15 years of research and experience, Marie brings a light-hearted, down to earth and humorous multidimensional framework to how we view sanity.

Properties and Propositions
Author: Robert Trueman
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108890164
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This book articulates and defends Fregean realism, a theory of properties based on Frege's insight that properties are not objects, but rather the satisfaction conditions of predicates. Robert Trueman argues that this approach is the key not only to dissolving a host of longstanding metaphysical puzzles, such as Bradley's Regress and the Problem of Universals, but also to understanding the relationship between states of affairs, propositions, and the truth conditions of sentences. Fregean realism, Trueman suggests, ultimately leads to a version of the identity theory of truth, the theory that true propositions are identical to obtaining states of affairs. In other words, the identity theory collapses the gap between mind and world. This book will be of interest to anyone working in logic, metaphysics, the philosophy of language or the philosophy of mind.

The Concept of Mind
Author: Gilbert Ryle
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226732954
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
This now-classic work challenges what Ryle calls philosophy's "official theory, " the Cartesian "myth" of the separation of mind and matter. Ryle's linguistic analysis remaps the conceptual geography of mind, not so much solving traditional philosophical problams as dissolving them into the mere consequences of misguided language. His plain language and essentially simple purpose put him in the tradition of Locke, Berkeley, Mill, and Russell - philisophers whose best work, like Ryle's, has become a part of our general literature.
