Avital Ronell has won worldwide acclaim for her work across literature and philosophy, psychoanalysis and popular culture, political theory and feminism, art and rhetoric, drugs and deconstruction. In works such as The Test Drive, Stupidity, Crack Wars, and The Telephone Book, she has perpetually raised new and powerful questions about how we think, what thinking does, and how we fool ourselves about the troubled space between thought and action. In this collection, some of today's most distinguished and innovative thinkers turn their attention to Ronell's teaching, writing, and provocations, observing how Ronell reads and what comes from reading her. By reading Ronell, and reading Ronell reading, contributors examine the ethico-political implications of her radical dislocations and carefully explicate, extend, and explore the paraconcepts addressed in her works.

This book kept me reading all night. I couldnt put it down! -- Brad DeMeulenaere I had my first colonic at age 26. I am now 56 and have seen a total of five colon hygienists, four within the past six years. Ive been through the forest of medical doctors and many different alternative health practitioners. Much of the time, I have sensed a frustration from them. Sometimes its a frustration that they cant figure out how to help me and sometimes it feels like a cumulative frustration from all the others they havent been able to help. But sometimes I feel that their frustration is directed to me personally, as if they wished I would just get myself together and feel better. Lord knows, I havent always made the best choices for my health. When I saw Scott Webb, I felt a lack of that frustration and no hint of blame. It was evident to me that he saw the big picture and how we have been affected by our culture. Scotts message was truly one of hope which brought me a sense of relief and peace. That is definitely a place where healing can begin, when you feel no blame, just peace and hope. -- Victoria Lovett One of Americas leading colonic therapists gives you the inside scoop on digestive disorders that you or a loved one might be experiencing. Learn how to: cleanse your colon and your whole body, reduce your risk of common diseases, understand the deeper issues of weight loss, beat underlying causes of depression, improve your diet to overcome constipation, visualize yourself well and feel better every day! Scott W. Webb dares to defy conventional wisdom about health and proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he knows the inside poop about many secrets you have not heard yet -- until now!

The appearance of an astronomer, who was discussing the 13th constellation on national TV last year, caused a huge outcry from the public. The big question was, "How can my sun sign be different?" Many people concluded that the astronomer did not know what he was talking about! People wanted to know how their Sun sign could be different than what they had been told all these years. Actually, the astronomer was very correct; he was telling everyone the truth as indicated by the science of astronomy, which the psycholgical art of astrology is based upon. There are 13 constellations and has always been 13. This is why the book also features a section on Ophiuchus, which is the 13th constellation and the only constellation/sign named after a human being, Imhotep an African Egyptian. There has been a conspiracy of silence among Western astrologers to misrepresent the history of astrology and ignore the truth of astronomy. Since astrologers did not adhere to the science of astronomy, as dictated by the constellations, they created an alternative paradigm called the Koch zodiac system, which only acknowledges 12 constellations and therefore 12 signs. Astrologers who live in the Eastern part of the world practice the truth of astronomy by using the Sidereal zodiac system. Most people in the Western world actually believe that on January 1st their Sun sign is Capricorn. However, the truth is that the Sun is actually in the constellation of Sagittarius. This is the truth of astronomy and the sidereal zodiac system. So, if you were born on January 1st (of any year) your Real Sun Sign is Sagittarius (not Capricorn). This book shows everyone (who wants to continue believing in their old "sign", while embracing the truth of their Real Sun Sign), how to blend these two systems, so that who you REALLY ARE and what you are destined to learn about yourself, is anchored in the truth. It is a gentle reminder that you are not living your most authentic self. Are you the Virgo, Selfless Servant or Aquarius, The Giver? Read, the Zodiac Conspiracy and be introduced to the truth and Your Real Sun Sign.
