IRONYA
Touched by a feather
2021 || Paperback || Marcel Van Belleghem || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
This book is a spiritual biography. When I was 7 years old, some new playmates I just met almost buried me alive. When everything turned dark and I was lost in panic, my spirit detached itself from my body in order to find help.
Through experiments with hypnosis, out-of-body experiences and past life regression, it became more and more clear to me that body and mind are separate components, connected in a temporary way.
Besides this, I was fascinated to discover how by means of alternative...

Save the planet by doing nothing
Learn how!
2021 || Paperback || Arjan Mulder || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
On average, mankind uses 1.7 Earths each year for raw materials, food and energy. Many countries even more. Most green initiatives call for action, but do not address the over-consumption and its causes. This manifesto shows our true escape: stop doing, degrowth and help Mother Earth to regenerate. Work with nature, not against it. The knowledge is still here.
People are doers and always call for action. But doing is exactly the root cause of the ecological problems we now face. All of our do...

This is a book containing 41 drawings created by Jenny Scholten van Aschat using just one ink line to join two souls in love.
There are no titles to any of them as I believe you can make your own titles and stories for each drawing.

2021 || Paperback || Klaas Tjassens || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar

The Unbearable Burden of the Obvious
Part III, A: The Janus-faced Nature of Adorno and Derrida
2021 || Paperback || Leo Feyaerts || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
If every signified evoked by reading or hearing any signifier is indeterminate, it makes no sense to formulate a semiotics cum philosophy that attempts to prove the correctness of the proposition that every signified is indeterminate, since that proof uses signifiers.
Those who proclaim as their unshakeable conviction that man (= every human being) is only consciousness, as the most famous structuralists and Derrida with in their wake the deconstructionists do, and that consequently only subj...

Believing or knowing for sure
2021 || Paperback || Drs.P.A.J. Coelewij || Brave New Books || met inkijkexemplaar
The composition of our brain of a human part of consciousness and analytical thinking, and a primal brain where the primary life functions are regulated, is the cause of many misunderstandings in our thinking and opinions over all kinds of things.
For example, we consider cultural matters like painting and music to be high-quality activities, whereas they are based only on physical-chemical processes that are not properly understood by the human part of our brain and therefore highly assesse...
