Men In Love: Men's Sexual Fantasies: The Triumph Of Love Over Rage
by Nancy FridayThis is a book about men who love women. But it is not a collection of love stories. It is a study of the secret, erotic fantasies that men have always kept hidden, a taboo-shattering investigation that reveals the deepest, most conflicting feelings that men have about women, men and their own sexuality. Men in Love goes beyond the socio-sexual cliché of woman seen as either madonna or whore to reveal the conflict of love and rage at the centre of men's emotions and erotic desires. Based on thousands of candid responses from men ranging from their teens to their sixties, Men in Love - startling and shocking - will change men's deepest feelings about their sexuality and make the women who care about them understand them as never before.
The Menace of Immorality in Church and State: Messages of Wrath and Judgment
by John D.“THE following messages are printed in response to many requests for their publication. I have allowed the local coloring to remain in the discourses, because I felt that these elements might add to the vitality of the messages, and make them more concrete and real.“I have not softened the messages, either, by ‘retouching’ them. These messages were stenographically reported, and they are given here just as God gave them to the messenger,—hot from the heart.“Happily, however, we are getting away from that false modesty which is not willing to talk about these evils, in order that they may be exposed and corrected, but is willing to tolerate them in guilty and shameful silence. We need to substitute the challenging tones of truth for this cowardly and prudish reserve. We need to speak out. We need knowledge of these secret enemies of our homes. These evils feed on silence and grow by stealth, and we ought today to tell the whole truth and not compromise with evil. ‘Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.’ As in Hosea’s day, thousands and tens of thousands are being ‘destroyed for lack of knowledge.’ Men and women, boys and girls,—our children, our brothers and our sisters,—are going down. Surely it is our duty to unmask the sources of their destruction, and to seek by all honest and legitimate means to defend ourselves against these secret assailants of the sanctity of the church, the purity of the home, the good order of the state, and the very life of the nation itself.After every war, there is a wave of immorality. We have just passed through the greatest war of all time, and we are now witnessing the widest wave of immorality in the history of the human race. Like a consuming fire, it is sweeping over the world. Only a spurious and silly optimism can deny this fact. All who really know conditions, both in Europe and America, confirm the fact.”—Rev. John Roach Straton

Mental Causation And Ontology
by S. C. Gibb E. J. Lowe R. D. IngthorssonAn international team of contributors presents new work on the importance of ontology for a central debate in philosophy of mind. Mental causation has been a hotly disputed topic in recent years, with reductive and non-reductive physicalists vying with each other and with dualists over how to accommodate, or else to challenge, two widely accepted metaphysical principles—the principle of the causal closure of the physical domain and the principle of causal non-overdetermination—which together appear to support reductive physicalism, despite the latter's lack of intuitive appeal. Current debate about these matters appears to have reached something of an impasse, prompting the question of why this should be so. One possibility is that, while this debate makes extensive use of ontological vocabulary—by talking, for instance, of substances, events, states, properties, powers, and relations—relatively little attempt has been made within the debate itself to achieve either clarity or agreement about what, precisely, such terms should be taken to mean. The debate has become somewhat detached from broader developments in metaphysics and ontology, which have lately been proceeding apace, providing us with an increasingly rich and refined set of ontological categories upon which to draw, as well as a much deeper understanding of how they are related to one another. In this volume, leading metaphysicians and philosophers of mind reflect afresh upon the problem of mental causation in the light of some of these recent developments, with a view to making new headway with one of the most challenging and seemingly intractable issues in contemporary philosophy.
