    From the construction of the Berlin Wall through every conflict up to the Falklands War, photographer Don McCullin has left a trail of iconic images. At the Sunday Times Magazine in the 1960s, McCullin’s photography made him a new kind of hero. The flow of stories every Sunday took a generation of readers beyond the insularity of postwar Britain and into the recesses of domestic deprivation: when in 1968, a year of political turmoil, the Beatles wanted new pictures, they insisted on using McCullin; when Francis Bacon, whose own career had emerged with depiction of the ravages of the flesh, wanted a portrait, he turned to McCullin. McCullin now spends his days quietly in a Somerset village, where he photographs the landscape and arranges still lifes - a far cry from the world’s conflict zones and the war-scarred North London of Holloway Road, where his career began. In October 2015 it will be 25 years since the first publication of his autobiography, Unreasonable Behaviour - a harrowing memoir combining his photojournalism with his lifework. The time is right to complete McCullin’s story. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jonathan Keeble. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/025794/bk_adbl_025794_sample.mp3.

    ABSURD - a film and literary production house that is passionately committed to creating and appreciating the finest works of art and literature - has now introduced the Pure Wisdom Series that intends to be a collection of the greatest literature - fiction and nonfiction - that awakened and have still been awakening mankind. Wisdom is always pure; was it then really necessary to add and extra word "pure" before the word "wisdom"? The answer is, "yes, it was". By adding "pure" before "wisdom", ABSURD simply wants to put enough emphasis to confirm that it is stating about the literary works that are purified by the purest timeless wisdom. This is the second book of the Pure Wisdom Series which collects one of the most important books for mankind ever written. The first book of this series contained two other finest literary works of all time - Franz Kafka’s novella, The Metamorphosis, and Hermann Hesse’s novel, Siddhartha. Friedrich Nietzsche was one of the greatest philosophers of all time. He was a rare breed: unlike many other philosophers whose philosophy was only of the mind, he was rooted deep in the heart - he was not only a philosopher but also a mystic - a born mystic. Hence, he was able to write a book like Thus Spoke Zarathustra - it was undoubtedly his best of the best philosophical and literary works. Nietzsche himself highly appreciated it in his preface to Ecce Homo, How One Becomes What One Is, “In my lifework, my Zarathustra holds a place apart. With it, I gave my mankind the greatest gift it has yet been given. This book, the voice of which speaks out across the ages is not only the most exalted book on earth - literally the book of mountain air - the whole phenomenon mankind lies at an incalculable distance beneath it - but it is also the most profound book born of the inmost abundance of truth; an inexhaustible well into which no vessel can be lowered without coming up again laden with gold ungekürzt.

    The Secret Chief Revealed: Conversations with Leo Zeff, Pioneer in the Underground Psychedelic Therapy Movement by Myron J. Stolaroff is back in stock! The 2022 revised 2nd edition is a co-publication of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies (MAPS) and Synergetic Press. Leo Zeff (1912 - 1988) was a pioneering psychedelic therapist and researcher focused on LSD, MDMA and other psychoactive drugs. He conducted much of his work and practice underground after psychedelics were declared illegal in the 1960s. By the time he turned 70, Zeff wass single-handedly responsible for the introduction of psychedelic compounds in use globally among nearly 4,000 individual therapists/practitioners. The Secret Chief is written as a transcription of an interview conducted in the 1980s with Zeff about his research, studies and practice with psychedelic-assisted therapy. The revised 2nd edition maintains much of the 2nd edition release, including thoughtful contributions on Zeff's lifework/research from other leaders in the psychedelic movement including Albert Hofmann, discoverer of LSD, psychedelic researcher and author, and Stanislav Grov, a founder of transpersonal psychology. The Secret Chief, revised 2nd edition also preserves 2nd edition content including contributions in the form of sentimental, narrative-style tributes to Zeff, with notable words from Ann & Alexander (Sasha) Shulgin, renown psychedelic researchers and authors, who also mention Zeff in their how-to chemistry book, Pihkal: A Chemical Love Story. Other anecdotes and commentary in The Secret Chief come from Zeff's children, apprentice therapists, and anonymous patients with whom Zeff worked. These comments provide insights into how Zeff navigated in the underground psychedelic research space, his contributions to the field, and personal understandings of who he was as a man, father, friend, researcher, and healer. This revised edition contains corrected errata, updated links to sources cited in the 2004 edition, and an updated design.
