This is a follow up to the first book in the Insanity & Divinity series. It follows a similar format, in that there are no page numbers, but the entries are highlighted and dated so you the reader don't feel totally lost.I believe that books of this nature, are meant to be dipped into, and read as you would an ancient text. Seeing what you want to see, and understanding what you are prepared to accept.Saying that I have tried to use generous spacing, so the arguments read better, and the thread is more prominent, but as I'm rather biased, I can't say that I have succeeded with my experiment by throwing out the rule book.The main thrust of the book, is both philosophical and psychological, being my prime passions, but there are other branches of investigation, for those who maybe put off with these two concerns.All told I believe the book to be an honest representation of a period in my life, where I was still trying to find a voice for my head, heart and hand. As such, I may have revealed more than I realized worthy of attention, and run the risk of being too self-indulgent.But I was being honest, and did try to give a fair account of what matters to me, and still does. I only hope I have not taken too many liberties, or over stayed my welcome. But, never the less, feel that presenting a book of varied interests, may actually allow you to entertain the desire to read the other books in the series, which are in fact broken into categories. Like Religion, Spirituality, Philosophy, Psychology, Contemplation and Autobiography.In the end I pray that you enjoy the book, get some reward for reading it, and come to see that above all Hope sustains us, and always will.

What is there is only a limited amount of sanity in the world and the real reason people go mad is because somebody has to? What if a mysterious tribe in the Amazon rainforest turn out to be the most boring people on earth? What if the afterlife is nothing more than a London suburb, where the dead get new flats, new jobs, and their own telephone directory? These are the sort of truths that emerge in this collection of stories by one of England's most gifted writers. In The Quantity Theory of Insanity, Will Self tips over the banal surfaces of everyday existence to uncover the hideous, the hilarious, and the bizarre. Psychiatry, anthropology, theology—and literature—will never be the same.

Christianity Without Insanity: For Optimal Mental/Emotional/Physical Health, by Boyd C. Purcell, Ph.D., is about love-based vs. fear-based Christianity [includes a chapter on other major religions]. This book, per the subtitle, is based on the truth of holistic health inherent in psychopathology which Dr. Purcell has taught at a university graduate college. Dr. Lewis Whaley, an oncologist, endorsed this author's previous book, Spiritual Terrorism, with this statement. "As a physician, I can validate Dr. Purcell's understanding of psychopathology. The anxiety which religion, or any other factor, generates has the potential to depress the human immune system, affect every organ, and impair bodily functions." The apostle John captured the essence of the dynamics of psychopathology in these comforting, encouraging, and inspiring words: "Beloved, I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers" (III John 2). No person's soul can prosper and, therefore, no one can be in optimal holistic health if one is living in fear of eternal torture in hell for oneself and/or loved ones. Do you know the symbolic meaning of the mixed metaphor, "salted with fire," of which few people have even heard? If not, you owe it to yourself to read this solidly Biblically-based book. One can believe in Christian Universalism (CU), not in spite of what The Holy Bible teaches, but because of exactly what The Holy Bible teaches about sin, salvation, and hell. Based on Biblical and historical facts, Jesus clearly taught CU—both implicitly and explicitly—just as surely as the grass is green, the sky is blue, God is in heaven, and Christ is Lord!

Most of us talk to ourselves, but do you ever hear a voice in your head that you know isn't yours? It's that small quiet spirit voice that guides, warns, protects, and inspires you to take action when you otherwise might not have. It's the guardian angel that warns you not to get on the airplane before it crashes. It's the spirit guide that whispers the name of an old friend you haven't talked to in years - just before the telephone rings and it's that same friend on the other line. Some would call it the voice of God, angels, fairies, spirit guides, your higher consciousness, intuition, or whatever else. There have always been reports of those fairy spirits that whisper to us telling us of ourselves and our future. Use whichever name you like to describe those little whispering spirits.
