Native American philosophy has enabled Native American cultures to
survive more than five hundred years of attempted cultural
assimilation. The first edition of this historical and
philosophical work was written as a text for the first course in
Native Philosophy ever offered by a philosophy department at a
Canadian university. This revised edition, based on more than
twenty-five years of research through the Native Philosophy Project
and funded in part by the Rockefeller Foundation, is expanded to
include extensive discussion of Native American philosophy and
culture in the United States as well as Canada. Topics covered
include colonialism, neocolonialism, the phenomenology of the
vision quest, the continuity of Native values, land and the
integrity of person, the role of cognitive science in supporting
Native narrative traditions, language in Indian life, landscape and
other-than-human entities, teaching Native American philosophy
through film and popular culture and the value of various research
methods for Native American philosophy. A vital addition to the
scholarly work examining Indian life in both Canada and the United
States.

This is a wonderful collection of stories about Greek fairies.
Similar to the northern fairies, they are not adverse to
interacting with mortals. However, there is always some proviso,
such as the fairy bride who is forbidden to speak, and drives her
husband mad (The Fairy Mother). The tragedy can also turn the other
way, such as the fairy maiden exiled from the fairy palace by one
kiss from a mortal (The Fairy Comb). Greek fairies avoid guns (i.e.
metal), crosses, and talismans, just like their northern
counterparts. They have sanctuaries, sometimes on mountain peaks,
sometimes in the ocean. The Greek fairies described here are
obvious descendants of the nature elementals of ancient mythology.

Thrygragos Varuna Mithras offers his two Great God brothers,
Thrygragos Lazareme and Thrygragos Byron, the option of henotheism,
with him as the top god amongst the top gods on the Hidden
Continent of Sedon's Head. If they refuse his offer, he promises to
obliterate them. They refuse. The ensuing Theomachy constitutes the
bulk of the action in "Feeling Theocidal," an Anheroic Fantasy
novel featuring Jim McPherson's PHANTACEA Mythos.
This book will inspire you to create space in your life in order to
find peace, joy, contentment and tranquility. Let yourself breathe.
We are all overworked, over-scheduled and overly-exhausted. We must
give ourselves time to be still, relax, quiet our minds, take the
gentle path and embrace life so that we can enjoy the life God has
so graciously given us. You will be taught how to take some down
time and give yourself time to reflect, dream and have inspired
thoughts. We need to learn how to embrace life with purpose and
passion. Listening to God's lead will direct you down a path of
renewal and refreshment. It's time for us to discover what's
missing from our lives, blocking our peace, joy and contentment.
You will discover what is missing is "You." Reading this book will
take you down a quiet path that takes you back to "You."
