Theirs is also a body on sojourn invested in experience, body understanding, and engagement in and for human thriving. Espinoza relates coming into a new body story, beginning with the deep emotional work of connecting the abstract intelligence of their mind with their body's intelligence, to explore the relationship between living and becoming, doing and listening.Combining that deep listening and living with their work in activism, Body Becoming offers us a way of understanding the body beyond constructions--political or medical-industrial-complex defined--toward cultivating the body as important in our endeavors to build a more inclusive vision for democracy. Mixing memoir and faith, somatics theory and body practice, Espinoza steers us through territory both familiar and difficult--as we discover embodiment as the primary place of deep wisdom, where culture shifts originate and materialize--and a better world becomes, as we too become.

Doch war es wirklich nur ein einfacher Raubmord oder verbergen sich hinter der Tat andere Motive als reine Geldgier? Hängt Balsens Tod mit seinem umstrittenen Bewässerungsprojekt in der Oase San Pedro de Atacama zusammen? Jedenfalls hat er sich damit sowohl bei den dörflichen Gemeinden als auch bei den reichen Unternehmern unbeliebt gemacht. Bei seinen Nachforschungen findet Cayetano Brulé heraus, dass Balsen mit Abgeordneten des chilenischen Parlaments verkehrte, und kommt außerdem dem Handel mit gefälschten Kunstgegenständen auf die Spur. Der Kreis der Verdächtigen weitet sich aus und droht den Ermittler in ein undurchschaubares Geflecht aus Politik, Wirtschaft und Entwicklungshilfe zu führen.…
