He consulted at The Rand Corporation for some 30 years, worked at Brookhaven National Laboratories, Northrop Aircraft Corp., McDonald Douglas Corp., and is currently President of Statistical Analysis Inc., a statistical consulting company. This book, "Wish Fulfillment: A Tale of Dreams," by James Press, appears in two volumes. It is a novel about ten Americans who knew each other in High School and formed a clique. In Volume 1 they attend a twenty year reunion where they are entertained by an African woman who has supernatural powers. They invite her to join their own party the next night, and they instruct her to use her supernatural powers. The woman gives each member of the clique the opportunity to dream and to adopt the persona of the person they would like to try being for a while, and perhaps forever. In Volume 2 it is ten years later. The clique wants to repeat the game of Wish Fulfillment but can't contact the woman. Several of them go to Africa to seek out the woman with the supernatural powers, and they find her. They bring her back for a repeat performance. The clique members are told that they might wake up and become that person forever, or not. They may meet people they know while in their dream state. In Vol. 1, two people become younger and more extroverted; another White woman becomes a Black woman; another man becomes a woman; a woman becomes a man; a woman who is overtly heterosexual becomes bisexual. In Vol.2, one of them does research on Alzheimers Disease; another becomes the long lost granddaughter of Albert Einstein and works to find a new element; another becomes an astronaut and travels to Jupiter; another is nominated for an "Oscar" for his acting ability; another travels to Papua, New Guinea; another becomes Assistant Secretary of State for Indian Affairs. In each volume, after they all wake up, we see how having their wishes fulfilled affects the dreamers' real lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Massive, beautiful . . . unquestionably some of the best writing on Spain [and] the best that Mr. Michener has ever done on any subject.”—The Wall Street Journal Spain is an immemorial land like no other, one that James A. Michener, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author and celebrated citizen of the world, came to love as his own. Iberia is Michener’s enduring nonfiction tribute to his cherished second home. In the fresh and vivid prose that is his trademark, he not only reveals the celebrated history of bullfighters and warrior kings, painters and processions, cathedrals and olive orchards, he also shares the intimate, often hidden country he came to know, where the congeniality of living souls is thrust against the dark weight of history. Wild, contradictory, passionately beautiful, this is Spain as experienced by a master writer.

Download or read book Act III in Patagonia written by William Conway and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2013-04-10 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patagonia. The name connotes the exotic and a distance that seems nearly mythical. Tucked toward the toe of South America, this largely unsettled landscape is among the most varied and breathtaking in the world-aching in its beauty as it sweeps from the Andes through broad, arid steppes to pristine beaches and down to a famously violent sea. It is also home to a vast array of rare wildlife as diverse and fascinating as the region itself. Act III in Patagonia is the first book to take an in-depth look at wildlife and human interaction in this spectacular area of the world. Written by William Conway, former president of the Wildlife Conservation Society, the book is unique in its concentration on the long Patagonian shoreline--populated by colorful cormorants, penguins, elephant seals, dolphins, sea lions, and numerous species of whale--and an increasing number of human beings. Threatened by overfishing, invasive species, artificially abundant predators, and overgrazing, the Southern Cone of Patagonia is now the scene of a little-known conservation drama distinguished by the efforts of a dedicated group of local and foreign scientists determined to save one of the Earth's least-inhabited places. From tracking elephant seals in the Atlantic to following flamingos in the Andes, Act III in Patagonia takes readers to the sites where real-life field science is taking place. It further illuminates the ecology of the region through a history that reaches from the time of the Tehuelche Indians known by Magellan, Drake, and Darwin to the present. Conway has helped to establish more than a dozen wildlife reserves in South America and is thus able not only to tell Patagonia's history, but to address its future. He brings a wealth of knowledge about Patagonia and its wildlife and responds to the difficult questions of how the interests of humans and wildlife are best balanced. He tells of the exciting collaborations among the Wildlife Conservation Society and its national and provincial partners to develop region-wide programs to save wildlife in steppes, coast, and sea, demonstrating that, with public support, there is hope for this stunning corner of the world. Though singular in their details, the conservation efforts Conway spotlights are a microcosm of what is happening in dozens of sites around the world.

Download or read book A Chronological History of the Discoveries in the South Sea or Pacific Ocean written by James Burney and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1817 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Captain James Burney (1750–1821), the son of the musicologist Dr Charles Burney and brother of the novelist Fanny Burney, was a well-travelled sailor, best known for this monumental compilation of voyages of discovery in the Pacific Ocean. After joining the navy in 1764, he sailed on Cook's second voyage between 1772 and 1774, and was also present on the ill-fated third voyage. He retired from the navy in 1784 and turned to writing works on exploration. These volumes, published between 1803 and 1817, and regarded as the standard work on the subject for much of the nineteenth century, contain collected accounts of European voyages of discovery in the Pacific Ocean between 1492 and 1764. Burney provides summaries of Spanish, Dutch and English accounts, which include descriptions of voyages to China, Micronesia, Melanesia, Australia. These volumes also encompass voyages to California and the Western coast of America, Mexico, Peru, Chile and other Central and South American destinations -- including islands in the vicinity of these locations, such as the Galapagos archipelago. While the main focus is on exploration in the Pacific some content includes Atlantic content covering the Falkland Islands, Patagonia and the West Indies.
