Описание: In this book, Lori Brown examines the relationship between space, defined physically, legally and legislatively, and how these factors directly impact the spaces of abortion. It analyzes how various political entities shape the physical landscapes of inclusion and exclusion to reproductive healthcare access, and questions what architecture's responsibilities are in respect to this spatial conflict. Employing writing, drawing and mapping methodologies, this interdisciplinary project explores restrictions and legislatures which directly influence abortion policy in the US, Mexico and Canada. It questions how these legal rulings produce spatial complexities and why architecture isn't more culturally and spatially engaged with these spaces. In Mexico, where abortion is fully legal only in Mexico City during the first trimester, women must travel vast distances and undergo extreme conditions in order to access the procedure. Conservative state governments continue to make abortion a severely punishable crime. In Canada, there are nowhere near the cultural and religious stigmas to abortion as in the US and Mexico. Completely legal and without restrictions, Canada offers an important contrast to the ongoing abortion issues within the US and Mexico. Researching the spatial implications of such a politicized space, this book expands beyond a study of abortion clinic and includes other spaces such as women's shelters and hospitals that require multiple levels of secured spaces in order to discuss the spatial ramifications of access and security within spaces that are highly personal, private, and sometimes secret or even hidden. In questioning what architecture's responsibility is in these spatial conflicts, the book looks at how what architecture 'does' can be used to reconsider the spaces and security around such contested places, and ultimately suggests what design's potential impact might be. In doing so, it shows how architecture's role might be redefined within social and spatial practices.

Описание: This book explores an area of contemporary religion, spirituality and popular culture which has not so far been investigated in depth, the phenomenon of astrology in the modern west. Locating modern astrology historically and sociologically in its religious, New Age and millenarian contexts, Nicholas Campion considers astrology's relation to modernity and draws on extensive fieldwork and interviews with leading modern astrologers to present an invaluable contribution to our understanding of the origins and nature of New Age ideology. This book challenges the notion that astrology is either 'marginal' or a feature of postmodernism. Concluding that astrology is more popular than the usual figures suggest, Campion argues that modern astrology is largely shaped by New Age thought, influenced by the European Millenarian tradition, that it can be seen as an heir to classical Gnosticism and is part of the vernacular religion of the modern west.

Описание: Kyra Mackensie, a psychotherapist who experienced abuse as a child, knows firsthand the devastation this can cause in an individual's life. One night she dreams of a world in which a virus was created that causes increasingly distressing symptoms in any perpetrator's body whenever they attempt to harm a child. Through the construction and release of this anti-child abuse virus, Kyra fulfills a lifelong wish of eradicating child abuse and eliminating its destructive consequences for humanity. In developing and distributing this virus, Kyra must face challenges in her own healing and growth process. With the help and support of Scott Resnick, who brings together a team of experts to construct this virus, Kyra visits Ocean Retreat, a spiritual center and the home of two Masters of ancient wisdom-Brothers of the Light-Damien Chong (DC) and Rapheal D'mer-whose guidance bring Kyra's and Scott's awareness and abilities to a more enlightened and powerful level. Kyra and Scott must make use of these abilities to protect Kyra and her young son Bruce from Korman, a Brother of the Dark. Korman vows to stop the release of the virus with the aid of other dark forces if Kyra doesn't join him on his self-centered path. Kyra, a widow who has not had a romantic relationship in the two years since her husband passed away, falls in love with Scott and expresses her feelings to him. While he admits that he loves her too, there is a question as to whether or not this relationship can withstand the obstacles of fulfilling their mission of transforming the world into a safe and loving environment for all children What makes The Chrysalis Project Mission: Eradicate Child Abuse unique in spiritual fiction is the depth of the teachings that it offers as well as its ability to entertain. Its intended audience are those readers: fascinated by the processes of their internal lives; interested in understanding their dreams; who enjoy visionary spiritual fiction; who relish love stories; and are intrigued by the idea of a mystical Path of Enlightenment.
