Summary

In "On Criminal Abortion in America," Horatio Robinson Storer presents a comprehensive examination of the social, legal, and medical ramifications surrounding abortion in the United States during the late 19th century. Storer's analytical approach blends personal narrative, scientific inquiry, and sociopolitical commentary, utilizing a clear, didactic style that seeks to educate both practitioners and the general public about the dangers associated with clandestine procedures. He delves into the cultural norms and legal frameworks that shaped perceptions of abortion, advocating for the medical community to take a moral stance against its clandestine practice and emphasizing the necessity for reform and improved women's healthcare. Storer, a prominent physician and a staunch advocate for women's health, authored this book amidst a heated societal debate regarding reproductive rights. His experiences and observations in the medical field, combined with a deep commitment to ethical medicine, profoundly influenced his perspective on abortion. His background as a member of the American Medical Association and his involvement in various women'Äôs health initiatives reflect his dedication to addressing the complex interplay of medicine and morality. I highly recommend "On Criminal Abortion in America" to those interested in the historical context of reproductive rights, ethics in medicine, and the evolution of women's healthcare. Storer's insights provide a pivotal understanding of the societal challenges of his time, which resonate in contemporary discussions on the topic, making this work a valuable resource for scholars and advocates alike.

    In Old World Witchcraft, noted author Raven Grimassi covers totally new territory--in his work and in the world of popular witchcraft books published in the last few decades.This book is actually about “an enchanted worldview,” one that has not necessarily been inherited from the beliefs and practices of any particular region and one which is available to us today.The “Old World” in the title is actually about a magical view of the Plant Kingdom and the spirits attached to it. While Grimassi’s previous books discuss the cultural expressions and commonality of witchcraft beliefs and practices in general, this book penetrates much deeper.Old World Witchdraft reveals rarely discussed topics such as the concept of Shadow as the organic memory of the earth. Readers will learn rooted techniques that possess power because these ways have always been connected to it. They will learn methods of interfacing with the ancestral current and with the organic memory of the earth. Through these they can connect with the timeless arts and learn methods of empowerment directly from the ancient source.Totally new information about familiar tools is presented. For example, the mortar and pestle is a tool for spell casting, a device that creates interfacing with plant spirits and with shadow, and a focal point for veneration of the Plant Kingdom. Grimassi also presents the art of using plant ashes for magical sigil work.This book is for people who have had their fill of books that say the same things over and over, who want to take the next step, and who are eager for the more rooted ways that have remained largely hidden.
