Author Kathleen DuVal argues that it was Indians rather than European would-be colonizers who were more often able to determine the form and content of the relations between the two groups. Along the banks of the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers, far from Paris, Madrid, and London, European colonialism met neither accommodation nor resistance but incorporation. Placing Indians at the center of the story, DuVal shows both their diversity and our contemporary tendency to exaggerate the influence of Europeans in places far from their centers of power.

You’ve seen them in movies and on TV, but cults are more prevalent than you think - and they’re armed with strategies that can brainwash and persuade even the most unlikely of candidates.

These questions and more are addressed in Cults Inside Out, written by leading cult expert Rick Alan Ross.

As our level of consciousness rises, we become more and more conscious of the oneness of life. This consciousness of the oneness of life is the enlightenment of the human mind. It marks a major transition in human life because it changes how we think, how we feel, how we live, and how we interact with others. It changes both our worldview and our sense of self. We realize that all life is the same life: the life of life itself. We finally understand that life is not created, life itself is the creator.

You Are an Idea literally means what it says. You are literally an idea. There are very few among us that possess the level of self-awareness to understand that our reality takes place within a mental structure. Mankind and science will come to understand our framework of reality is far from what we think it is. Our understanding of who we are and how we create our own reality is about to make the kind of paradigm shift that no one sees coming, except for a few. Journey with J. Adrian and learn: what consciousness is; why the idea of a universe is outdated; where the theory of everything is hiding; and much more....

There are two sides of life: life's creativity and life's eternal being. Life's creativity is experienced as world, body, and mind. Life's eternal being is experienced as awareness itself. Your true life and self is your awareness, and your awareness is unchanging and unchangeable. As our awareness, we are all one and the same. Awareness is the place of oneness. Everyone's unchanging awareness is life's eternal being. Awareness itself is the place of safety, peace, and freedom. Everything else is a passing experience within life's creativity.

What makes a person liberal or conservative? Why does the Democratic Party scare off so many possible supporters? When does our "injustice trigger" get pulled, and how can fairness overcome our human need to look for a zero-sum outcome to our political battles? Daniel Meegan suggests that American liberals are just missing the point. If progressives want to win the vote, they need to change strategy completely and champion government benefits for everyone, not just those of lower income. Fairness, he writes, should be selfishly enjoyed by everyone.

Technologically speaking, we are creating our own version of the Oracle of Delphi. But this time we are not relying on outdated mythological beliefs or superstitious thinking. Instead of invoking magical incantations (or succumbing to misunderstood gaseous fumes), we are designing elaborate software programs that have the ability to allow machines to learn autonomously and then analyze tomorrow's outcomes today. Science, in other words, is taking the promise of Pythia and making it a reality in machine hardware.
