Описание: "Experimental Investigation of the Spirit Manifestations" is an 1855 work by American chemist Robert Hare. In this volume, Hare deals with the subject of spiritualism, a religious movement based on the belief that spirits of the deceased exist and are able to communicate with living people. He explores in detail the evidence for the existence of spirits, looking at purported methods of communication, historical cases from around the world, intuitive evidence, and more. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in spiritualism and the existence of an afterlife, and it is not to be missed by collectors of related literature.

Описание: Cultural practices have the potential to cause human suffering. The Tension Between Culture and Human Rights critically interrogates the relationship between culture and human rights across Africa and offers strategies for pedagogy and practice that social workers and educators may use.Drawing on Afrocentricity and emancipatory social work as antidotes to colonial power and dehumanization, this collection challenges cultural practices that violate human rights, and the dichotomous and taken-for-granted assumptions in the cultural representations between the West and the Rest of the world. Engaging critically with cultural traditions while affirming Indigenous knowledge and practices, it is unafraid to deal frankly with uncomfortable truths. Each chapter explores a specific aspect of African cultural norms and practices and their impacts on human rights and human dignity, paying special attention to the intersections of politics, economics, race, class, gender, and cultural expression.Going beyond analysis, this collection offers a range of practical approaches to understanding and intervention rooted in emancipatory social work. It offers a pathway to develop critical reflexivity and to reframe epistemologies for education and practice. This is essential reading not only for students and practitioners of social work, but for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of African cultures and practices.

Given the weight of world karma, the burden of humankind's negative thoughts, words and deeds, and the high levels of pollution and ecological imbalance in the world today, the nature spirits desperately need our help.
In this time of environmental change, it will take renewed cooperation between the human race and the nature spirits to restore balance to Mother Earth. This inspiring book provides practical spiritual tools to restore harmony to the environment, mitigate extreme weather conditions, and return Earth to its original pristine beauty.
