Altering Consciousness
This authoritative, multidisciplinary overview of altered states of consciousness (ASC) shows how their study is necessary to gain a fundamental understanding of human culture, history, and biology. Altered consciousness is one of humanity's most mystical and life-altering aspects. These remarkable changes in mental state have understandably been a topic of general interest and scientific inquiry across time. Beyond simply satisfying our curiosity, however, studies focused upon altered consciousness can also bring valuable insights into our experience, biology, and culture. This unprecedented two-volume set will intrigue anyone interested in psychology, biology and neurology, science, histor...
Destined to be Brothers
It is 1948 and two boys are born from different parents, at the exact same moment, in the exact same place. From that time, there is a psychic connection that exists between the two. From birth to death, the two enjoy a bond, as close as any real brothers. At an early age, they share a life changing event, resulting in a promise made between best friends having to be fulfilled. Through life’s hills and valleys, love, birth and death, Ben and Simon face it all together, proving that sometimes the family you find is the family you really need. Destined to be Brothers is a story to make you cry, to make you laugh, and to keep you involved until the emotional ending. It contains a mixture of, true friendship, loyalty, sadness, kindness, unexpected events and touches of humour. It is often uncomplicated but certainly has its share of unexpected events too.

A Bit Different
A Bit Different: Disability in Ireland brings the reader on a journey exploring the ideas that influence our thinking about people with disabilities. In the year when Ireland ratified the UN Convention on the rights of people with disabilities, A Bit Different answers the question as to why the road to equal rights for people with disabilities is strewn with so many potholes. Its chapters analyse the impact of the Nazi programme to annihilate people with disabilities and create an ‘Aryan race,’ as well as the Irish habit of placing people with perceived differences into closed institutions. Drawing on examples from Germany, Romania, Italy and the US, the book casts a different or alterna...
Paranthropology: Anthropological Approaches to the Paranormal
We are living in a complicated period in relation to our understanding of 'extraordinary' phenomena. Naive materialist approaches are more assertive than ever, in anthropology and in the world more generally. At the same time, the taboos against admitting to the reality of the paranormal are weakening. There is a growing body of writing which takes the paranormal and extraordinary seriously, while bringing to it the same academic standards that any other subject matter would require. This is a valuable and important development, and it helps open the way to new modes of understanding in the sciences and social sciences that will not reject scientific rationality, but expand that rationality so as to include more of the world of human experience. The articles in this Paranthropology reader provide important clues and suggestions, along with rigorous argument, to help us in exploring what is likely to be a major area of anthropological engagement in coming years.

Dare to Sleep
On most days, in most years, nothing much happens in Dyman, a peaceful Australian community. But today is not most days. A hiker waves down traffic, panicked and breathless, to report a horrendous homicide. Two young but efficient investigators--Detective Denise Porter and her partner, Constable Stanthorpe--are assigned to the case. The increasingly disturbing and confusing labyrinth of evidence challenges them like no other case has, and what their investigation reveals is almost as disturbing as the crime itself. This murder has all the signs of organized crime, and the tell-tale presence of "The Boss" is problematic, to say the least. Illusive as well as elusive, "The Boss" has made sure ...
