Sociological studies into alcohol use seem to find it difficult to deal with the substance itself.

The central feature of ANT is to search for relationships, or rather networks, between all things relevant to (...) |

Some are willing to empathetically experience situations ‘from inside’, while others ‘undo and redo’ their (...) |

Pleasure, the defining object of kāmaśāstric scholarship, is harmonious sensory experience, the product of a “good fit” between the self and the world. It comes about when one moves in a world of fitting sense objects, and one has made oneself fit to enter that world. The bulk of kāmaśāstric literature is devoted to developing, enhancing, and enacting specific bodily and sensory capabilities in order to maximize one’s ability to affect and be affected by the world. This article examines the (...) |
