David James presents and explains his beliefs and theories as well
as the concepts of astrology and numerology as he shares his
journey to spiritual enlightenment.
As a seeker of the truth, James offers insight into the lessons
he gained from a wide variety of personal experiences throughout
his lifetime. By offering a fresh perspective on how he learned to
stop visualizing life from a materialistic point of view and began
moving to a spiritual awakening, he allows others to envision a
world of unlimited possibilities and new beginnings. James passes
on the wisdom and inspiration he acquired from each life
experience, and in doing so, he sheds light on such introspective
issues as battling with negative energy, developing an awareness of
the deep energies inside, releasing anger and life's expectations,
and living consciously and intensely in the present moment.
Through sharing the often intimate details of his challenging
spiritual journey, James reveals exactly how he eventually reached
a destination so peaceful, alive, clear, and vibrant that he is now
able to exist in the here and now, achieving a level of awareness
that once seemed impossible.

This anthology explores the spatial dimension and politics of
haunting. It considers how the 'appearance' of absence, emptiness
and the imperceptible can indicate an overwhelming presence of
something that once was, and still is, (t)here. At its core, the
book asks: how and why do certain places haunt us? Drawing from a
diversity of mediums, forms and disciplinary approaches, the
contributors to Spectral Spaces and Hauntings illustrate the
complicated ways absent presences can manifest and be registered.
The case studies range from the memory sites of a terrorist attack,
the lost home, a vanished mining town and abandoned airports, to
the post-apocalyptic wastelands in literary fiction, the
photographic and filmic surfaces where spectres materialise, and
the body as a site for re-corporealising the disappeared and dead.
In ruminating on the afteraffects of spectral spaces on human
experience, the anthology importantly foregrounds the ethical and
political imperative of engaging with ghosts and following their
traces.
