Book Description
An intimate portrait of many of my best works from the last two decades: a collection of essays, pictures, lyrics and poetry... The essays range all across the philosophical wheel: a math proof attempt, discussions on metaphysics, sub-atomic physics, spirituality, sexuality, the dreaded modal fallacy, metaphor theory, social protest theory, music theory, cognition theory, consumerism, literature reviews, Project Management, Burkean pentad theory, visual censorship, and, well, many, many more... The Poems are, as many of you might realize, fairly fluid and abstract -- and speak truths from my heart and soul. Caveats: 1. I have been known to use the ""F"" word in some of my poetry -- just sayin', you have been warned... 2. Some of my essays are extremely controversial, as I tend to kick the elephant in the middle of the room from time to time... This would be a fantastic piece to set on your coffee table (unless, of course, you expect young children of a reading age to wander through unattended)...

Book Description
Joe Perez looks at the common issues facing gays in personal, cultural, social, and political dimensions within a "theory of everything" called STEAM. Building on the work of integral theorists including Ken Wilber, Don Beck, and Jim Marion, Perez shows how STEAM can build bridges across the divides. The topics include responding to religious conservatives; why liberals and conservatives alike miss the big picture; how to make HIV/AIDS prevention efforts more effective; how to renew faith, purpose, and dedication to truth.

Book Description
One day in June, two young people apply for a job in a mysterious building on the “billionaire’s row” of 57th Street in New York City. Unlike the other skyscrapers on the street, 211A West 57th is a self-contained universe built for single family, who are unknown to most of its inhabitants. There are schools, farms, restaurants, libraries, theaters, a hospital, industries, high, middle and low-income apartments, laboratories, gyms, markets, chapels, its own post office, a bank and 15 forbidden floors, off-limits to the residents. It is a world fueled by gossip, animated by scandal and powered by an unseen force. The building is capped by a glass dome enclosing a magnificent aviary, filled with exotic birds, including a world-renowned collection of hummingbirds. On the day the new employees are hired, the aviary is in turmoil. A rare hummingbird has gone missing. The two find themselves swept up in the search and caught in a flood of events that almost destroys the building, revealing its deepest secrets and threatening the lives of everyone inside.
