In>Stories Are Weapons, best-selling author Annalee Newitz traces the way disinformation, propaganda, and violent threats--the essential tool kit for psychological warfare--have evolved from military weapons deployed against foreign adversaries into tools in domestic culture wars. Newitz delves into America's deep-rooted history with psychological operations, beginning with Benjamin Franklin's Revolutionary War-era fake newspaper and nineteenth-century wars on Indigenous nations, and reaching its apotheosis with the Cold War and twenty-first-century influence campaigns online. America's secret weapon has long been coercive storytelling. And there's a reason for that: operatives who shaped modern psychological warfare drew on their experiences as science fiction writers and in the advertising industry.Now, through a weapons-transfer program long unacknowledged, psyops have found their way into the hands of culture warriors, transforming democratic debates into toxic wars over American identity. Newitz zeroes in on conflicts over race and intelligence, school board fights over LGBT students, and campaigns against feminist viewpoints, revealing how, in each case, specific groups of Americans are singled out and treated as enemies of the state. Crucially, Newitz delivers a powerful counternarrative, speaking with the researchers and activists who are outlining a pathway to achieving psychological disarmament and cultural peace.Incisive and essential, Stories are Weapons reveals how our minds have been turned into blood-soaked battlegrounds--and how we can put down our weapons to build something better.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Beat movement exploded into American culture in the early 1950s with the force of prophecy. Not just another literary school, it was an artistic and social revolution. William S. Burroughs proclaimed that the Beat writers were real architects of change. There is no doubt that we're living in a freer America as a result of the Beat literary movement, which is an important part of the larger picture of cultural and political change in this country during the last forty years, when a four-letter word couldn't appear on the printed page and minority rights were ridiculous. Anne Waldman, a renowned poet and longtime friend of many of these writers, has gathered in this volume a range of the best and most exemplary writings of the Beat poets and novelists. Selections from the Beat classics appear, as well as more recent prose and poetry demonstrating the continued vitality of the Beat experiment. Included are short biographies of the contributors, an extensive bibliography of Beat literature, and a unique guide to Beat places around the world--from Kerouac's hometown of Lowell, Massachusetts, where his novel Dr. Sax takes place, to Tangier, where Burroughs wrote parts of Naked Lunch.…

"Nate is almost too real. Mark my words: This book will inspire laughter, chills of recognition, and flights into lesbianism." --Lena Dunham Writer Nate Piven's star is rising.

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The true story of how a renowned writer's struggle with mood storms led her to try a remedy as drastic as it is forbidden: microdoses of LSD. Her revealing, fascinating journey provides a window into one family and the complex world of a once-infamous drug seen through new eyes. When a small vial arrives in her mailbox from Lewis Carroll, Ayelet Waldman is at a low point. Her moods have become intolerably severe; she has tried nearly every medication possible; her husband and children are suffering with her. So she opens the vial, places two drops on her tongue, and joins the ranks of an underground but increasingly vocal group of scientists and civilians successfully using therapeutic microdoses of LSD. As Waldman charts her experience over the course of a month--bursts of productivity, sleepless nights, a newfound sense of equanimity--she also explores the history and mythology of LSD, the cutting-edge research into the drug, and the byzantine policies that control it. Drawing on her experience as a federal public defender, and as the mother of teenagers, and her research into the therapeutic value of psychedelics, Waldman has produced a book that is eye-opening, often hilarious, and utterly enthralling.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Through the author's detailed and caring guidance, you'll discover how to achieve vitality and a sense of new aliveness that you may have not experienced since your childhood. Anat reveals not only how to overcome present aches, pains, and limitations but how to attain greater flexibility, energy, strength, mental clarity, and creativity-no matter what your age or present physical condition In the words of bestselling author Larry Dossey, M.D., This book puts living back into life. It is the distilled wisdom of a great guide. Scientific Foundation of This Work In recent years brain research has challenged conventional wisdom that said our brains cease to develop and grow beyond our early twenties. Instead, cutting edge science has proved that our brains are capable of continuing to develop, grow, and make new connections throughout our lives. This capacity for regeneration is known as neuroplasticity. Why is this new discovery so important in Anat Baniel's work? It is because your level of vitality is directly connected to your brain. When your brain thrives, growing and making new connections, you become capable of infinitely new ways of moving, thinking, and feeling. We move with greater comfort and ease. We think more clearly, broadly, and creatively. We carry out new solutions, small or large, more smoothly and effectively. And just as in childhood, when our lives spill over with new discoveries, we become infused with a sense of aliveness. The Anat Baniel Method provides us with the tools for taking full advantage of neuroplasticity- our brain's ability for changing itself to heal body and mind. Here are exercises drawn from the author's more than 30 years of remarkable outcomes with adults as well as children. Through the self-help instructions for the Anat Baniel Method and NeuroMovement, presented in this book, you'll reap the benefits of neuroplasticity and integrate them into everything you do. - Read about the scientific discoveries that provide the cornerstones of the Anat Baniel Method and the powers for renewed vitality that these principles bring to your life - Discover the Nine Essentials that your brain requires to thrive, including Movement with Attention, Subtlety, and Variation - Experience simple, safe, physical and mental exercises that satisfy the Nine Essentials and thus awaken your vitality - Read real life stories of healing and change that illustrate how these methods work - Learn about easy, highly intuitive ways of incorporating NeuroMovement into your daily life so that every activity-from washing the dishes to working at your desk, from interacting with your loved ones to improving your golf game-brings you renewed vitality, pleasure, and personal satisfaction. Endorsed by leading physicians, scientists, clients, and transformational teachers, the Anat Baniel Method really works. Editorial Reviews Baniel's compassionate and empowering approach will leave readers, particularly those with problems defying traditional treatment.eager to forge positive communication pathways between the body and the mind. Publishers Weekly (Anat) understands that for any meaningful change to happen in the way we think, move, and use our body, the change has to happen in the brain. Jill Bolte Taylor, bestselling author of My Stroke of Insight Anat Baniel shows why our mainstream approach is often wrong and at times damaging. The approach here, far wiser, far more subtle, truly holistic, far more ingenious, far more in accord with how our brain development occurs, shows ways to access brain plasticity that yields far greater results. Norman Doidge, MD, bestselling author of The Brain's Way of Healing.…
