Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Notable Book, 1997 Library Journal, Best Book of 1997 Beginning with the "occasional miracles" of a mysterious turn-of-the-century cancer vaccine called Coley's toxins, Stephen S. Hall traces the story of how doctors have learned to harness the immune system and its "commotions" to develop a wide array of cutting-edge therapies.

Book excerpt: The massacre at Mountain Meadows on September 11, 1857, was the single most violent attack on a wagon train in the thirty-year history of the Oregon and California trails. Yet it has been all but forgotten. Will Bagley’s Blood of the Prophets is an award-winning, riveting account of the attack on the Baker-Fancher wagon train by Mormons in the local militia and a few Paiute Indians.

Download or read book Black Manifesto written by Robert S. Lecky and published by New York : Sheed and Ward. This book was released on 1969 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Manifesto, addressed "to the white Christian churches and the Jewish synagogues in the United States," was presented by James Forman to the Black Economic Development Conference in Detroit and adopted in April 1969. Among other things the Manifesto demanded that the churches and synagogues pay $500 million in "reparations to black people." Robert S. Lecky's and H. Elliott Wright's Black Manifesto: Religion, Racism and Reparations is a collection of eight essays reflecting upon racism and the churches in the light (and heat) of the Manifesto. The editors have themselves contributed a useful introduction that sketches the background out of which the Manifesto emerged, documents the responses of the white churches to it and considers the case for reparations. (Adapted from the New York times, March 15, 1970)
