Book excerpt: The winds of change... Cassidy Byrne has always had an affinity for nature. The wind and the animals give her a sense of tranquility. She lives a quiet life with her adopted daughter, avoiding other people as much as possible. Her peaceful existence suddenly shatters in one day, leaving her reeling and wondering if she is strong enough to face all the changes that are about to happen. Malachi, Krill, and Surne—three men from three different worlds find their mate in one very special woman. The question is—will she accept them? Each man will do whatever it takes to protect Cassidy, but will it be enough? Cassidy searches for a way to deal with the sudden changes and emotional overload. She accepts that some things in life may be out of her control, but that doesn’t mean she can’t resist it—or at least pretend to for a little while. Can the three men convince Cassidy that life is about the journey and that every day can be an adventure if she opens her heart and accepts them?
Download or read book The Hidden Power of Emotions written by Melanie Dean, Ph.D. and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2020-11-17 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us focus on thinking positively to create what we really want in life. But science shows it's actually our feelings that matter most. In her relatable and engaging way, psychologist and researcher, Melanie Dean, Ph.D., explains not just what to do to shift your emotions and focus your energy to attract the people, things, and opportunities you want most in life, but how and why it works. Once you understand that your feelings and emotions are real energy waves that go out into the world and connect with (or repel) others, you can start to notice and shift your emotions-and intentionally direct your energy-so you are sending out the waves that will connect with what you really want. By reading The Hidden Power of Emotions, you will discover: • There is a whole world of energy at work in, around, and through you. • Your emotions, which are more powerful than your thoughts, create energy waves that leave your body, connecting with similar energy. • Your emotions are the way in which you receive communication back from the shared energy field. • How to purposefully direct your emotions to connect you with what you want to receive. Throughout this book, which won both the Nautilus Silver Award and Nonfiction Book Award, Dean highlights the science behind your power as well as specific tips and strategies to help you apply it in your everyday life, including a Power Zapper section of common struggles that weaken your power, and a Power Booster section of recommendations for increasing your personal power.
Download or read book Our Transgenic Future written by Lisa Jean Moore and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2022-07-05 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How scientific advances in genetic modification will fundamentally change the natural world The process of manipulating the genetic material of one animal to include the DNA of another creates a new transgenic organism. Several animals, notably goats, mice, sheep, and cattle are now genetically modified in this way. In Our Transgenic Future, Lisa Jean Moore wonders what such scientific advances portend. Will the natural world become so modified that it ceases to exist? After turning species into hybrids, can we ever get back to the original, or are they forever lost? Does genetic manipulation make better lives possible, and if so, for whom? Moore centers the story on goats that have been engineered by the US military and civilian scientists using the DNA of spiders. The goat’s milk contains a spider-silk protein fiber; it can be spun into ultra-strong fabric that can be used to manufacture lightweight military body armor. Researchers also hope the transgenically produced spider silk will revolutionize medicine with biocompatible medical inserts such as prosthetics and bandages. Based on in-depth research with spiders in Florida and transgenic goats in Utah, Our Transgenic Future focuses on how these spidergoats came into existence, the researchers who maintain them, the funders who have made their lives possible, and how they fit into the larger science of transgenics and synthetics. This book is a fascinating story about the possibilities of science and the likely futures that may come.
Download or read book I Hear a Song in My Head written by Nergesh Tejani and published by New Acdemia+ORM. This book was released on 2010-06-29 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “[Tejani] shares her stories of succeeding as a doctor in Uganda during the 1960s . . . a must for those seeking a medical memoir collection.” —Midwest Book Review Set in Uganda of the sixties with bookends in India and New York, this doctor’s story tells of a turbulent political time when colonial Uganda graduated to self-rule. It is also the personal story of an Indian woman living in an independent African country wanting and needing assimilation but regretfully recognizing rejection. It is the story of the exhilaration of living in a country more beautiful than Eden, if sometimes a threatened Eden. But most of all it tells doctoring tales made delicate by seeing them through the heart. It was a time in medicine before evidential imperatives removed the romance. “Dr. Tejani’s unique meld of skill and compassion radiates throughout this text which will touch both physician and lay readers alike.” —Frank A. Chervenak, MD, New York Weill Cornell Medical Center “With clarity, drama, and humor, this book creates a family story, a picture of an African nation in the throes of political upheaval, and an original and illuminating view of medical needs and practices in circumstances that exist today in many parts of the world. The complex harmonies of the song in Dr. Tejani’s head will resonate for a wide variety of readers.” —Carol Sicherman, author of Rude Awakenings “Nergesh Tejani is a terrific writer . . . Her subject is often exotic, often with international themes and full of pithy observations and wisdom.” —Abraham Verghese, MD, Professor of the Theory and Practice of Medicine, Stanford University Medical Center
Download or read book Asteroids written by Martin Elvis and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2021-05-01 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique, wide-ranging examination of asteroid exploration and our future in space Human travel into space is an enormously expensive and unforgiving endeavor. So why go? In this accessible and authoritative book, astrophysicist Martin Elvis argues that the answer is asteroid exploration, for the strong motives of love, fear, and greed. Elvis's personal motivation is one of scientific love--asteroid investigations may teach us about the composition of the solar system and the origins of life. A more compelling reason may be fear--of a dinosaur killer-sized asteroid hitting our planet. Finally, Elvis maintains, we should consider greed: asteroids likely hold vast riches, such as large platinum deposits, and mining them could provide both a new industry and a funding source for bolder space exploration. Elvis explains how each motive can be satisfied, and how they help one another. From the origins of life, to "space billiards," and space sports, Elvis looks at how asteroids may be used in the not-so-distant future.

Download or read book Overwhelming Terror written by Robert Knox Dentan and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2008-12-16 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This powerful ethnography of a people believed to be the least violent in the world explores how they maintain peaceful relations even under the most dire circumstances. Robert Knox Dentan, the world's foremost scholar of Semai, brings its members vividly to life. His book includes translations of their poetry, dramatized accounts of particular events, and extensive quotations from a wide range of individuals. In a clear, gripping, sometimes novelistic style, Dentan introduces the reader to tortured Nakhoda; beautiful, stubborn Kliy; witty, ironic Grcaangsmother; doomed Rmpent; brutal, alienated Juni; and other memorable Semai. The book opens with the horrific circumstances that the author argues gave rise to Semai peaceability, continues by illuminating their adaptation to those circumstances, and closes by sketching the eventual decline of that adaptation under the pressures of globalization. Unlike many behavioral scientists, Dentan argues that the Semai approach to conflict is a successful Darwinian adaptation. A recurring theme is the importance of psychological "surrender" to maintaining this adaptation. Throughout, the author highlights the mechanisms and costs of peace, underscoring their relevance to everyday life in all societies. Students and scholars of peace studies, conflict resolution, ethnography, and Southeast Asia will find this unique work an invaluable and compelling study.

Book excerpt: This unique volume offers a handbook for busy pastor, student or interested layperson to better understand the use of Christian art and the history of its use in Lutheranism since the time of the Reformation. The author states in the introduction to the book: "The Lutheran Church was never an enemy of the art, neither the fine arts nor industrialized arts. . . . The Lutheran Church, to confess its faith did not hesitate to enlist the aid of pure and beautiful art forms, not only in the harmonies of poetry and music, but also in archictecture, sculpture, painting, bronze work, wood-carving, and embroidery." This book concerns itself chiefly with church architecture, but necessarily also discusses the place of the fine arts in the construction and use of spaces consecrated to the worship of the One True God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, where God's people are gathered to receive His gifts of grace and mercy through His Holy Word and the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar.
