The search for Mr. Right is over… Until my new "boyfriend" walks into a bar and my best friend gets fate-induced heart-eyes at first sniff. So, I bow out with grace and maturity… by running from the bar and jumping behind the wheel of my car in the middle of a snowstorm. When I find myself lost on an unfamiliar road outside of town, everything suddenly goes blank. Luckily, three alphas that smell a lot like mine come to my rescue. I can't remember anything except my name, and we're stuck in the middle of nowhere with no cell signal or internet, but I feel… safe.

Hillman refers to soul as “a perspective rather than a substance, a viewpoint toward things rather than a thing itself”. The value of seeing beneath, between, and beyond to achieve new perspectives for learning, integration, transformation, and growth was a personal challenge for Hillman, who claimed depth psychology can be summed up in one excerpt from Heraclitus: “You could not discover the limits of the soul (psyche), even if you traveled every road to do so; such is the depth…of its meaning."

When I'm looking for a hookup, I want three things: big, thick, and rough. So it doesn't make sense that I can't get my new hire out of my head. He's a tiny guy with big ideas...and he's my apprentice, which means he's completely off-limits. But he's already under my skin. And for the first time with any guy, I don't think I can hold my own against him. Physically, yes. Emotionally, no. Auggie makes me weak.

"Ho sognato di scrivere un libro per aiutare gli uomini e le donne, sia ricchi che poveri, istruiti o ignoranti, mondani o ingenui, a trovare dentro di sé la fonte del successo infinito, della felicità infinita, di tutti i talenti e di tutte le verità. E questo sogno è rimasto con me, e alla fine è diventato significativo; e ora lo invio al mondo, a compiere la sua missione di guarigione e beatitudine, sapendo con certezza che raggiungerà le case e i cuori di coloro che stanno aspettando e sono pronti a riceverlo." (James Allen)

Why do well-intentioned plans for improving the human condition go tragically awry? Author James C. Scott analyzes failed cases of large-scale authoritarian plans in a variety of fields. Centrally managed social plans misfire, Scott argues, when they impose schematic visions that do violence to complex interdependencies that are not - and cannot - be fully understood. Further, the success of designs for social organization depends upon the recognition that local, practical knowledge is as important as formal, epistemic knowledge.

The Golden Bough, the monumental study of religious rites and practices in ‘primitive’ societies, was one of the earliest influential texts in anthropology.

A Wilbrook non c'è quasi nulla. Pochi abitanti, qualche casa, una chiesa. Strade polverose bruciate dal sole, come in un vecchio film western. E lì dietro, sull'altopiano di Gardner's Hill, caleidoscopiche sequenze di alberi e rocce affilate come lame disorientano chi passa; un esperimento di Dio, per mettere alla prova la capacità di adattamento dell'uomo alla natura. Ancora non ci crede, Gabriel, di essere riuscito a scappare.
