Book excerpt: Doctor Peter Branstead’s neurology department at St. Mark’s Hospital in New York’s picturesque Greenwich Village is flooded with a series of critically ill vagrants exhibiting identical symptoms. Confused and agitated upon admission, they rapidly progress into convulsions, cardiac arrest, and death. The deaths are too methodical to be a coincidence, but how—and why—are they being killed? Peter’s investigation leads him into a dark underworld of international intrigue and into the center of a plot to destroy the president of the Ukraine, Anatoly Labrinska. Peter learns that his patients have been given a mysterious drug that is also being administered to President Labrinska. But tracking Peter’s every move is a savage Ukranian Mafia killer—an assassin so ruthless that the most vicious criminals on two continents live in fear of his wrath. With the political stability of Europe hanging in the balance and the lives of those he loves in jeopardy, Peter desperately works to foil the plot and escape with his life.

Download or read book Mind Warp 20 20 written by Richard Kydd, Jr. and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2003-10-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Mind Warp 20/20 (After Shock), his fifth volume of published poetry, Richard D. Kydd JR. shows once again the wide breadth of his perspective. Just when poems such as the street-wise A Fool's Way and the tragically cynical Crack Down convinces you his vision is bleak, he surprises you with the optimistic spirituality of Spirit in Flight, or the haunting imagery of Life of Its Own. Kydd's work is full of seemingly contradictory surprises. Many of his poems deal with apparently helpless struggles and situations, yet there is an undercurrent of humor that shows the poet's maturity and acceptance of difficult circumstances. The facetious frustration of Meter Beater transitions smoothly to the still funny but savage reaction to unemployment of Job Hunter. He swings with ease from the raunchy physical humor of Free Style to the romantic spirituality of Intertwined. Searingly realistic but tempered with deep compassion and a true awareness of the beauty of humanity, this collection of Kydd's work reveals him to be a champion of the disadvantaged, and a mature observer of life's troubles and rewards.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unraveling QAnon: A Survivor’s Guide to Recovery Over the past two years, Katrina Vaillancourt shared her story of entry into and exit from the QAnon conspiracy community with me for a book on which I was working. Her account is brimming with curiosity, insight, and vulnerability. So many of us have stereotypes of people who follow QAnon and other conspiracy theories, and we forget the very human reasons that people turn in this direction, which offers equally human strategies to bring them back. Through her radical openness, Katrina opens a door for those curious enough to listen instead of judging. Her message can help many." ~ Jamil Zaki, Stanford Professor of Psychology and author of War for Kindness and Hope for Cynics In the throes of the 2020 pandemic, Katrina Vaillancourt, a dedicated Bernie Sanders supporter and seasoned Nonviolent Communication trainer, found herself unexpectedly spiraling down the rabbit hole of QAnon. "ReQovery: How I Tumbled Down the QAnon Rabbit Hole and Climbed Out" is her candid, vulnerable account of the six tumultuous months she spent ensnared by the "Pastel Q" phenomenon—a journey marked by shock, elation, deep disillusionment, and ultimately recovery. Navigating through intense emotional highs and devastating lows, Katrina's story is not just about the allure of a conspiracy that captivated millions worldwide, but also about the profound psychological toll it takes. With the world turned upside down by a global crisis, she delves into how sophisticated social media algorithms exploit our deepest fears and desires, creating echo chambers that reinforce extreme ideologies. Through her expertise in Nonviolent Communication, Katrina offers a rare glimpse into the subtle yet powerful ways our everyday interactions can either fuel division or foster understanding. "ReQovery"goes beyond a personal saga— it is a crucial guide laden with insights into dismantling the psychological traps set by movements like QAnon and reclaiming a sense of reality grounded in present-moment truths. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone struggling to understand a loved one lost to QAnon, providing not just context but also hope and practical solutions for bridging seemingly insurmountable ideological divides. Join Katrina on her journey back to rationality, equipped with empathy, clarity, and a heartfelt roadmap for healing. Topics Thoroughly Covered in ReQovery: • How could anyone intelligent fall into QAnon? • How on earth could a Bernie supporter flip to supporting Trump? • How did she get out? • What did other’s do that helped her come around? • What were the turning points that helped her question QAnon? And so much more ReQovery is a must-read for anyone personally touched by or studying the challenges of misinformation and ideological extremism dividing our nation and harming the mental health of our people. As a scholar deeply committed to engaging our differences together in deliberation rooted in the fundamental American values we share, I find Katrina’s path to be a powerful call to embrace our shared humanity. ~ Barbara A. McGraw, JD, PhD, professor of social ethics, law, public life and politics; author of Rediscovering America’s Sacred Ground: Public Religion and Pursuit of the Good in a Pluralistic America. As a certified Nonviolent Communication trainer for over two decades, and a mediator before that, I struggled when two dear friends fell into QAnon in 2020. I had tried everything and still these relationships were suffering. When Katrina reached out to me for support during her recovery, our conversations provided mutual benefit. I offered her empathy, and she gave me insights into QAnon that I couldn't have gained otherwise. This education helped me rebuild and maintain close friendships with those holding different worldviews than my own. May the wisdom of Katrina’s personal experience of recovery, as shared in this book, be a beacon of light for all who are seeking to restore relational bonds in the wake of QAnon. ~ Jim Manske, Nonviolent Communication assessor, trainer & mediator As an expert in neuroscience, trauma, and Compassionate Communication, I believe Katrina’s story is essential to creating compassion and connection across political divides, especially divisions caused by QAnon. ~ Sarah Peyton, certified NVC trainer, founder of Resonance Healing, author of The Antiracist Heart
