Focused and Fearless
Now ordinary meditators (and non-meditators) can understand how to attain non-ordinary states with relative ease. Blended with contemporary examples, pragmatic exercises, and ''how to'' instructions that anyone can try, Focused and Fearless provides a wealth of tools to cultivate non-distracted attention in daily life and on retreat. Shaila Catherine has a friendly, wise approach to the meditative states (jhanas) that lead to liberating insight. Focused and Fearless is about much more than merely meditation or concentration. It offers a complete path towards bliss, fearlessness, and true awakening.
The Issue at Hand
Essays on Buddhist Mindfulness Practice. An inspiring and very accessible compilation of essays and edited talks on the Buddhist practice of mindfulness. As Gil Fronsdal states, "the search for the issue at hand is the search for what is closest at hand, for what is directly seen, heard, smelt, tasted, felt, and cognized in the present." Gil brings the practice of mindfulness not only to formal meditation but to all the varying aspects of every day life.
Victor McKusick and the History of Medical Genetics
This book is being planned as a tribute to Dr. Victor A. McKusick (1921-2008), who is well known as the “father of medical genetics”.

Technoscience
Science is a social practice. It intervenes in nature and politics. It shapes our ways of life and our social and political realities. In this book, the issue of politics is placed at the core of knowledge production. The objective is to offer tools and resources for critical reflection and analysis of the role of politics and the political in science and technology. The book provides a critical introduction to the field of science and technology studies (STS) and traces how different notions of political, as well as social, movements have been central to shaping this interdisciplinary field of study. The various articles provide examples of how political engagement is currently discussed and practiced in STS. They explore objects and places, such as the Zimbabwean bush pump, fluorine pollution from an aluminum production site in Norway, scallops in France's St. Brieuc bay, and the genetics of the Marfan's Syndrome in a hospital laboratory. The book is also a meeting point between influential feminist contributions and important actor-network-studies in STS.

Opening the Ark of the Covenant
Through his worldwide research into its disappearance, author Frank Joseph has learned that the Ark was not a mere legend; nor was it just an elaborate box used to store the original Ten Commandments. It was, he asserts, purpose-built to harness the powers of the Earth for humanity's continued physical existence and spiritual evolutions.
