The Scapegoat has baffled scholars for ages. Did the Yom Kippur ritual originate in the worship of demons as modern scholars say? Journey with us through the Torah and the Dead Sea Scrolls as we trace the roots of these ideas. Leaving Qumran, we find our path littered with other extra-biblical documents. We examine the internal claims of pseudepigrapha as well as the commentary of paleographers. Will the vaunted wisdom and holiness of the God of Israel stand the test? Or critical theories crumble like the walls of Jericho?

I grew up in a Catholic family. A daughter of a Catholic Cop. While we went to church each Sunday, we never discussed the Mass on the ride and never discussed it on the ride home. The ride to Church often included Annie hollering for us to get in the car, and many times the ride included arguing, tension, and fights. I never remember my dad going with us. Well, except for that Easter Sunday when my green outfit with yellow Knee-High Socks got ruined. Typically, just my mother, brother, and sister. We were obedient Catholic kids during Mass. Images were important to Annie. We knew when to sit, stand, and kneel. When I knelt for prayer during Mass, I would always peek out to see if others were also peeking or following form. You could say that the outcome of my childhood memories of Catholic church included a tense ride to mass, mastery of Sit, Stand, Kneel, leaving mass early to beat the exiting drivers, racing home, and never speaking of the service.

From “Three Billy Goats Gruff” to The Men Who Stare at Goats, this inimitable ruminant has long played a role in our literature and popular culture. And yet, our relationship with the “poor man’s cow” is oddly ambivalent. In the beautifully illustrated Goat, Joy Hinson explores the reason behind this unease while presenting readers with the animal’s fascinating natural history and its effect on myth, medicine, and culture. Hinson traces the history of goats from their evolution millions of years ago through their domestication and role in the modern world. She delves into our interaction with endangered wild goat species and the familiar farmyard goat, and she reveals the harm done by humans in indiscriminately importing tamed goats, leading to huge feral populations in Australia and on the Galapagos Islands. Hinson also considers the place of goat products in culinary and medical traditions, from the pouring of goat urine into the ear as a cure for neck pain to the belief that a goat’s bezoar stone can be used as an antidote for poison. From Goat Festivals in the United States to the Christmas Goat in Sweden, Goat takes readers on an exciting ride through this frequently neglected animal’s history, life, and role in today’s world.

"Tethered" is a three-part story and guide designed specifically for women navigating the challenging waters of abuse and divorce. "Tethered" is not just a book; it's a beacon of hope, a guide to self-discovery, and a companion on the journey towards empowerment and healing. The narrative begins with Part I, which unfolds as a short, relatable fable. This section is not just a story; it's a mirror reflecting the various ways we find ourselves held back, tethered to the past, and unable to reach the life we yearn for. It's an eye-opener to the invisible chains that may be holding us back. Moving into Part II, "Tethered" transforms into a practical guide, offering readers an easy-to-follow framework. This section is designed to be more than just advice; it's a hand to hold as you walk through the process of untying the strings that have held you back. It's structured yet flexible, allowing each reader to find her own path within its guidance. Finally, Part III serves as a treasure trove of resources. Here, you’ll find not just tools, but companionship in your journey of overcoming. This part acknowledges that the path to healing is not a solitary one – it requires support, understanding, and resources. The core message of "Tethered" resonates with profound truth: There's incredible power within you. This book aims to help you discover the assumptions and beliefs that either lift you to new heights or keep you tethered in mediocrity. It's about recognizing that the power to change your story is in your hands.

People who study the mind and behavior -- psychologists -- have been trying to figure this out for a long time. This book explains some of what we know so far. It also gives ideas for what we can do about it, especially what young people can do. For grades 6 and up.
