Jewish art has always been with us, but so has a broader canvas of Jewish imaginings: in thought, in emotion, in text, and in ritual practice. Imagining the Jewish God was there in the beginning, as it were, engraved and embedded in the ways Jews lived and responded to their God. This book attempts to give voice to these diverse imaginings of the Jewish God, and offers these collected essays and poems as a living text meant to provoke a substantive and nourishing dialogue. A responsive, living covenant lies at the heart of this book--a covenantal reciprocity that actively engages the dynamics...

Timothy Leary (1920-1996) - amerykański filozof, psycholog, pisarz, profesor Harvardu ale przede wszystkim ikona amerykańskiej kontrkultury, guru ruchu hippisowskiego, głównie dlatego iż propagował i stosował substancje psychoaktywne, w tym LSD. Uważał, iż substancje tego typu uwalniają ludzki mózg a zarazem pozwalają nie tylko go poznać ale także kształtować. Prowadził m.in. badania nad przestępcami, proponując z świetnymi rezultatami terapię resocjalizacyjną przy pomocy substancji psychoaktywnych. Dwaj pozostali autorzy, także profesorowie Harvardu związani z ruchem...

Every physician hates to have a patient develop a complication. Nevertheless, we also know that when a problem does develop, one needs a clear corrective strategy to minimize the effect of the complication and thereby prevent a major morbid event.

When he saw, under the fluoroscope, that the catheter was dancing back and forth in the lung, Dr. Dexter was convinced that he had...
