A specter is haunting Western culture: the specter of the alt-guru.In the wake of alt-culture, the 'alt' (alternative) has now perforated the mainstream, and the alt-guru is a manifestation of societies changing perspectives on who or what is a 'spiritual leader.' James O'Meara examines this from a wide variety of different perspectives, including well-known figures such as William Burroughs, Aleister Crowley, Colin Wilson, Alan Watts, Neville...

James O'Meara's The Homo and the Negro brings a "queer eye" to the overwhelmingly "homophobic" Far Right. In his title essay, O'Meara argues that the Far Right cannot effectively defend Western civilization unless it checks its premises about homosexuality and non-sexual forms of male bonding, which are undermined not just by liberals and feminists, but also by Judeo-Christian "family values" advocates. O'Meara also uses his theory to explain ...

The second edition of Stephen James O'Meara's acclaimed observing guide to the Messier Objects features improved star charts for helping you find the objects, a much more robust telling of the history behind their discovery - including a glimpse into Messier's f...
