Placebo versus the Law of Attraction [Respectful Insolence] (scienceblogs)
Since 2012 was rung in a month and a half ago, I’ve been writing a lot more
about placebo medicine than I have in a while. Specifically, I’ve written a
lot more about placebo effects than usual. This proliferation of posts on the
topic was sparked by how Harvard University’s very own not-a-PhD faculty,
credulous promoter of acupuncture and all things “integrative medicine,” and
generally clever propagandist for woo, Ted Kaptchuk seemed, like Elvis, to be
everywhere for a while. The message he was spreading was, although he didn’t
admit it or put it that way, a response to the growing body of evidence in so-
called “complementary and alternative medicine” (CAM) (or, as its proponents
like to call it these days, “integrative medicine”) demonstrating rather
conclusively that most CAM modalities are in fact nothing more than elaborate
placebos and that whatever nonspecific effects are observed due to these
treatments are, when studied in carefully controlled studies,
indistinguishable from placebo effects. While some CAM apologists don’t want
to face that message, Kaptchuk appears to embrace it whole-heartedly by
arguing that placebo effects are powerful. Unfortunately, as they say, he

Faith and Will $12.99 “[A]n authentic, valuable, and introspective work” ( Library Journal ) from the bestselling author of The Artist’s Way . This inspiring book from the bestselling author of The Artist’s Way explores one of the most vital questions that spiritual seekers encounter on the journey to enlightenment: Where do I turn when my soul is urging me to keep growing toward God but my mind and being, stubbornly, will not follow? The author of more than thirty groundbreaking books that deftly trace the intersection between art and faith, between creativity and spirit, Julia Cameron has earned millions of fans around the world. In this, her most personal book to date, she provides a heartbreakingly honest and insightful depiction of her struggle to reconnect to her faith and her realization that having faith, of necessity, means relinquishing will. A wise and passionate book, Faith and Will gently guides readers through the process of learning to let go and, in turn, learning to live. |

Catching Light: Looking for God in the Movies $20 Films have come to not only entertain modern minds but also inform and shape them. Many of the best cinematic works have profound religious elements — some obvious, some more subtle. In Catching Light Roy Anker examines nineteen popular films, showing how they convey a range of striking perspectives on the human encounter with God.These selected films portray God showing up in different, surprising ways amid the messy circumstances of life. Anker looks closely at the plot of each film, especially at how characters, through their experiences, ultimately move toward Light, toward recognition of a loving, redemptive deity.The first section of Catching Light looks at classic 1970s films that inspect personal, social, and cultural evil: The Godfather trilogy, Chinatown, and The Deer Hunter. The second group of films depicts the ways and depths of specifically Christian notions of redemption: Tender Mercies, The Mission, Places in the Heart, and Babette’s Feast. Some of the most successful films of our time have come as fairy-tale fantasies: the Star Wars saga, Superman, and three of Steven Spielberg’s lost boy stories ( Close Encounters of the Third Kind, E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial, and A.I.: Artificial Intelligence), each of which Anker interprets as a fable of search and redemption. The films in the last section of the book feature characters who, to their great surprise, are ambushed by a wholly unexpected God: Grand Canyon, American Beauty, and Three Colors: Blue.In addition to focusing on the theological dimension of each film, Anker comments on its merits both as story and as cinema. Also included are sidebars that discuss each film’s history andsignificance as well as the quality and special features of DVD editions. For anyone interested in the intersection of religion, art, and culture, Catching Light offers a unique view of contemporary faith. |

Empires of the Imagination $46.06 The warlocks and ghosts of fantasy film haunt our popular culture, but the genre has too long been ignored by critics. This comprehensive critical survey of fantasy cinema demonstrates that the fantasy genre amounts to more than escapism. Through a meticulously researched analysis of over a century of fantasy pictures?from the seminal work of Georges M?li’s to Peter Jackson’s recent tours of Middle?earth?the work identifies narrative strategies and their recurring components and studies patterns of challenge and return, setting and character. First addressing the difficult task of defining the genre, the work examines fantasy as a cultural force in both film and literature and explores its relation to science fiction, horror, and fairy tales. Fantasy’s development is traced from the first days of film, with emphasis on how the evolving genre reflected such events as economic depression and war. Also considered is fantasy’s expression of politics, as either the subject of satire or fuel for the fires of propaganda. Discussion ventures into the subgenres, from stories of invented lands inhabited by fantastic creatures to magical adventures set in the familiar world, and addresses clashes between fantasy and faith, such as the religious opposition to the Harry Potter phenomenon. From the money-making classics to little-known arthouse films, this richly illustrated work covers every aspect of fantasy film. |

Excalibur $6.99 John Boorman directed this gloriously savage interpretation of Arthurian legend loosely based on Thomas Malory’s novel Le Morte d’Arthur. By turns gleaming and filthy, tender and bloody, the film is a visually stunning epic which is never less than compelling. Nigel Terry is perfectly cast as Arthur, whose unwavering trust and faith are shown to be both quietly heroic and achingly na? ve. Interestingly, the quest for the Grail is the least effective part of the film, despite bold cinematography by Alex Thomson (who was nominated for an Oscar) and a fine performance by Paul Geoffrey as Perceval, whose greatest desire is attained in his dying sight. It is the scenes of Camelot in which Boorman is at his most effective, as Arthur is betrayed by the burning passions of Guenevere (Cherie Lunghi) and Lancelot (Nicholas Clay), whose boiling internal forces cannot be denied, whatever the cost. The wicked Mordred (Robert Addie) and Morgana (Helen Mirren) are commanding when onscreen, and Nicol Williamson’s performance as the grandiosely self-sacrificing Merlin is outstanding. Liam Neeson and Patrick Stewart also appear in this dense, passionate, and stirring triumph featuring a marvelous Trevor Jones score. The gruesome effects by Peter Hutchinson and Alan Whibley, however, and sights such as a knight having sex in full body armor make this a fairy tale strictly for adults. ~ Robert Firsching, Rovi |

Fairies, Fractious Women, and the Old Faith: Fairy Lore in Early Modern British Drama and Culture $87.85 New – Fairies, unruly women, and vestigial Catholicism constituted a frequently invoked triad in late sixteenth-and early seventeenth-century drama which has seldom been critically examined and therefore constitutes a significant lacuna in scholarly treatments of early modern theater, including the work of Shakespeare.

Faith Seeking $25.81 Denys Turner is one of the most accomplished thinkers in contemporary British theology. Turner’s contributions to topics as diverse as theology and politics and mysticism and theology have this in common: a fervent desire to get at the truth of things, and a commitment to articulating complex ideas in a way that is both philosophically rigorous and that takes on the sacred cows of consensual opinion. This collection brings the author’s incisive iconoclasm to the attention of a potentially larger readership than did his earlier books. Time and again the author offers striking and original observations, which put new perspectives on familiar subjects: ‘One thing you can say about Jesus is that he was an enthusiastic party-goer.”Richard Dawkins clearly does not understand children if he thinks that the childishness of theism makes theism like belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy. For Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy are adult stories and children do not spontaneously believe in them.’While the essays here originated as talks, sermons, and addresses given to a wide variety of audiences, they uniformly attempt to reconcile the apparently conflicting — but as the author sees it, actually complementary — outlooks of head and heart. So whether he is addressing a group of businessmen in Atlanta, or delivering a Remembrance Sunday sermon, or talking to a group of college dons, the fundamental theme of these essays is the same: that the mind can love, just as the heart needs to understand, and that a proper use of intellect is a way of being truly alive. Hence, for Turner, good theology is an essential practice of Christian life. |

Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith $23.53 In Flights of Fancy, Leaps of Faith, Cindy Dell Clark went right to the believers – American children – to explore how children themselves give meaning to Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy. Through interviews and observation conducted in real-life settings from homes to shopping malls during the holidays, she asks whether believing in these figures is good or bad for children. Using their insights, she offers fresh, new interpretations about tooth loss as a rite of passage, about Christmas (including the role of the family and the Christmas tree), and about Easter customs (including the Easter egg hunt) in contemporary America. Clark challenges the notion that the figures are merely imaginary . She demonstrates how children actively shape these traditions through their own creativity and beliefs. And because they require the child’s faith in order to be experienced, they play an important and singular role in a child’s psychological development. Through the mysteries and myths of Christmas and Easter, families balance the values of receiving and giving, of growth and sacrifice. Each aspect of the Santa myth, from his slide down a chimney to his big red suit, plays a part in a child’s imagination. Through their offerings of milk and cookies and their letter writing, children bring their relationship to Santa into developing attitudes toward giving and receiving gifts. The Easter Bunny story, with its ritual egg hunt and baskets of brightly colored candy, is explored in terms of life and its possibility of growth. In these examples, Clark shows how children play an active role in constructing family rituals and cultural reality, since their willingness to make the storiestheir own helps to renew the traditions. This engaging look at our central symbols will hold great interest for parents, as well as for teachers, psychologists, and other professionals concerned with childhood culture. Complete with children’s vivid testimonies and colorful illustrations, |

Life Is Not a Fairy Tale $3.08 From the Publisher: The more people say you can’t, the more you can. The more they talk negatively, the more you fight.

In one moment, with one tearful, touching performance of Summertime, Fantasia captured the hearts, and the votes, of millions of American Idol fans. Her powerful voice and independent style made her an overnight national sensation. But life wasn’t always sensational for Fantasia. Fantasia could have been just another sad statistic. At the age of seventeen, despite the promise of her extraordinary voice, she was just another young girl who dropped out of high school, a baby on her hip. Her life and her plans for her future seemed to be going nowhere. The choices she had made were closing every door to the life she had hoped to live. But Fantasia had been raised by strong women of faith. Both her grandmother and mother are preachers. She was raised with an unshakable faith in God, the kind of faith that she needed when it came time to rethink her choices and redirect her life. Fantasia hoped that by using her gift to inspire others, she would be able to someday take care of her family and herself. Now readers can share the intimate moments of her life. In Life Is Not a Fairy Tale, Fantasia offers a deeply emotional look at her rise to the top and the life-altering revelations she came to during her lowest moments along the way. With a spirit as strong as her voice, she speaks with heartfelt, humorous frankness about what it takes to get off the wrong path and onto the right one. Fantasia confides in readers, walking with them through the trials of her family life and loving a man who didn’t love her, through the challenge of being a baby mama to managing the joys and pressures of fame.

A quaint, Greek village turns a cold, if not openly hostile, shoulder to physician Allie Alexander as she spurns city life for a ramshackle medical clinic. High-fashion model Natalia Pappas leaves the only home she’s ever known — nestled among lush green Grecian hills — to pursue her career on the mean streets of New York City. And then there’s Martha Pappas, who finds herself ready at last to open her shop, Once Upon a Time, only to find a long-awaited love just beyond the doorstep. |

Murder & Mayhem Can Be Fun $10.95 I have always enjoyed unusual things and in many ways this book displays my passion for strange. We have Yorek, who lived the good life and was struck down in his prime at his 95th birthday party. Barnwick Humbug is every small town’s politician, until he converses with his cat, Jasper, for advice. Faith and Calvin were at one time star struck lovers until Calvin found a sex kitten to add to the group, he learns a valuable lesson. Fairy Tales are really quite gory and vicious. The big bad wolf is always coming to town to blow down houses or threaten old ladies. Innocent women are usually the victims as in Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella and we must not forget poor Peter’s wife stuck in a pumpkin shell. Who do we all find disturbing? That voice that tells us you now have four options. Lydia the grandmother from the past finds help in the future. Six games to play at parties. |

Immediately, he snatches the children’s passports and demands Patty leave the country alone or, he threatens, he will have her and the children killed.In the next years, as she travels between America and Malaysia trying to get custody, Patty sees that even with the excellent lawyer she has hired, there will be no justice since the all-powerful Islamic clergy close to her husband rule the religious court system.Finally, Patty realizes the only way to rescue her children is to smuggle them past the extremists guarding them.

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight $11 One of the greatest works of the Middle Ages, in a marvelous new verse translation Composed in the fourteenth century, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is as beloved as it is venerable, combining the hallmarks of medieval romance-pageantry, chivalry, and courtly love-with the charm of fairy tales and heroic sagas. When a mysterious green knight rides on horseback into King Arthur”s court, interrupting a New Year”s feast, he issues a challenge: if any of King Arthur”s men can behead him and he survives, then a year later he is entitled to return the strike. Sir Gawain takes up the challenge and decapitates the green knight, only to see him pick up his severed head and ride away, leaving Gawain to seek him out to fulfill their pact. Blending Celtic myth and Christian faith, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight is a Middle English masterpiece of magic, chivalry, and seduction. |

Suspense Pack (3 Books): 50% Off $23.97 <b>Suspense Pack: 3 Books at 50% Off</b><P>If you love a little shiver up your spine, don’t miss these hair-raising reads. Hike with <b>Stephen King</b> on a nature trek gone awry in <I><b>The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon</i></b>. See why internist turned bestseller <b>Tess Gerritsen</b> hit it big with medical thriller <b><I>Harvest</b></i>, and surround yourself with deception and desire in <b>Linda Howard’s <I>All the Queen’s Men</i>.</b> Brrr!<P><b><I>The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon</b></i><P>What if the woods were full of them? And of course they were, the woods were full of everything you didn’t like, everything you were afraid of and instinctively loathed, everything that tried to overwhelm you with nasty, no-brain panic.<P>The brochure promised a “moderate-to-difficult” six-mile hike on the Maine-New Hampshire branch of the Appalachian Trail, where nine-year-old Trisha McFarland was to spend Saturday with her older brother, Pete, and her recently divorced mother. When she wanders off to escape their constant bickering, then tries to catch up by attempting a shortcut through the woods, Trisha strays deeper into a wilderness full of peril and terror. Especially when night falls.<P>Trisha has only her wits for navigation, only her ingenuity as a defense against the elements, only her courage and faith to withstand her mounting fear. For solace she tunes her Walkman to broadcasts of Boston Red Sox games and the gritty performances of her hero, number 36, relief pitcher Tom Gordon. And when her radio’s reception begins to fade, Trisha imagines that Tom Gordon is with her—her key to surviving an enemy known only by the slaughtered animals and mangled trees in its wake.<P>A classic story that engages our emotions at the most primal level. The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon explores our deep dread of the unknown and the extent to which faith can conquer it. It is a fairy tale grimmer than Grimm, but aglow with a girl’s indomitable spirit.<P><b><I>Harvest</i></b><P>In <I> |
