Book excerpt: Brilliant scientist Aaron VanDieter has a promising future. If he can discover the means for DNA messengers to synthesize proteins, genetic mutation for behavioral modification could be possible, greatly affecting the mental health field. But VanDieter's less-than-moral research methods lead his employer to condemn his efforts. Undaunted, VanDieter forms his own behavioral modification institute in Louisiana. In his quest to discover the causes and cures for mental disorders, VanDieter enlists the services of several other neurobiological professionals. John Ventalero, a seemingly introverted bioengineer, turns out to be plagued with multiple personalities, while Shomi Mashita, a Japanese psychiatrist, is at odds with VanDieter almost immediately. But it is Lamil Gupta, a lovely Indian émigré from Bombay, who endeavors to make VanDieter understand the human price for obtaining ends regardless of the means. Science and morality collide as VanDieter digs deeper into the mind's dark recesses. But when a serial killer suddenly unleashes terror on local women, VanDieter's finds himself caught up in a chilling examination of true evil. Gripping and terrifying in its scope, Within the Dark Recesses is a chilling look at the sinister side of the human mind.

Download or read book Dark Recesses of the Mind written by Isaac Kight and published by . This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am a survivor of terrible childhood trauma. The PTSD I have experienced my entire life has defined my existence. Depression, anxiety, panic these are constant problems. In middle age the illness overwhelmed me and forced me into treatment. I learned to use poetry to express my feelings and talk about topics not easy to discuss. I posted a few of my poems on social media where I quickly received the feedback of friends that these were "pretty good." I am not certain that this is true, but I have decided to publish a book of poetry nevertheless. On the brighter side, several people have conveyed to me that my poems have been helpful to them. When they feel alone and isolated, these poems help them to understand that others can feel the same. One section explores Japanese poetic forms. These tend to be more cryptic, but I do so enjoy applying these forms to English. It is no small struggle to express ideas in English using the Japanese syllabic form. This may be why the Haiku is so popular in the English-speaking world these days as it presents a challenge. It is my supreme hope that this work will contribute in some small way to the overall agenda of destigmatizing mental illness. I hope these poems will help everyone who hurts to seek healing, those who do not understand to seek understanding, and those who are unaware of the struggles of the mentally ill to become aware. Together, we will bring forth a kinder, more understanding, and more loving world.

Download or read book Eight Windows written by Joseph A. Koncelik and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-12 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight Windows By Joseph A. Koncelik Eight Windows is a fictional story spanning 100 years. The author grew up on the south shore of Long Island and has roots in the Czech community, the Episcopal Church and the life on Great South Bay from which this story is drawn. At one time, this place was the location of numerous estates built by New York City’s blue bloods – including private churches that reflected their wealth and life style. The tale begins with the creation of eight Tiffany windows for a church built on an estate in 1912 overlooking Great South Bay in the Town of Oakdale. This fictional estate is called Kairos by a turn-of-the-century Wall Street tycoon, Cedric Vandercamp. The story flexes from the present day to flashbacks in time during the creation of the windows by a talented young priest, Julius Cherveny, and the wife of Vandercamp, Eleanor Bouffort Vandercamp, but removed from the church and hidden by Eleanor’s abusive and jealous husband. Those precious and priceless windows are rediscovered in 2012 and stolen in an elaborate plot by a murdering thief named Karl Banecek, an accomplice, Emil Joaquim Darktow, and his cohorts called Saligia. A mysterious priest with secret connections to the crime enlists the aid of a female private detective, one Daisy Patience Fleabane Reidlos. She is charged with uncovering the plot, catching the murderer of a church sexton who protected the windows and retrieving them. Greed is the common theme spanning the 20th century; one of the seven deadly sins. Those sins are represented by members of Saligia. They are opposed with righteous force by the presence of a church vestry made up of seven heavenly virtues. Woven into the story is the ill-fated love affair of two star-crossed lovers who design the windows; the resurgence of the Kairos estate, first as a destination wedding location by the nefarious antagonists, and eventually as a mission-based rehabilitation center when the estate is recovered for the Episcopal Church. That weaving of this story also includes an unusual connection between a clever private detective and a powerful Mafioso don. The reader will find authenticity in the story through its connection to a time, place and the personalities of people who contribute to the broad diversity of Long Island. The author has provided illustrations of the windows as well as more than 20 other drawings to illuminate the tale.

Download or read book Miracles of Book and Body written by Charlotte Eubanks and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Miracles of Book and Body is the first book to explore the intersection of two key genres of sacred literature in medieval Japan: sutras, or sacred Buddhist texts, and setsuwa, or "explanatory tales," used in sermons and collected in written compilations. For most of East Asia, Buddhist sutras were written in classical Chinese and inaccessible to many devotees. How, then, did such devotees access these texts? Charlotte D. Eubanks argues that the medieval genre of "explanatory tales" illuminates the link between human body (devotee) and sacred text (sutra). Her highly original approach to understanding Buddhist textuality focuses on the sensual aspects of religious experience and also looks beyond Japan to explore pre-modern book history, practices of preaching, miracles of reading, and the Mahayana Buddhist "cult of the book."

When columnist and commentator Kerri Sackville decided to stop filling every idle moment with distraction and learn to be comfortable alone, her quality of life soared. From boosting creativity and productivity, improving self-awareness, building resilience and moral courage, to improving relationships and connection with others, a bit of alone time is vital to wellbeing. But with smart phones, social media, endless streaming and podcast options, as well as the demands of work, family and friends, spending meaningful time on your own can feel impossible, unnecessary, or even indulgent. In The Secret Life of You Kerri Sackville analyses society's attitude towards solitude – why is it okay to eat breakfast at a café on your own but faintly tragic to dine alone? She identifies the roadblocks in the way to unplugging, contemplates aloneness vs loneliness, and looks at the difference between true connection and mere connectivity.
