Book excerpt: Echoes in Time (90,000 words, 41 chapters, and epilogue) blends the themes of alien contact with the discovery of an asteroid in an orbit that will lead to a collision with earth. The "alien" culture, as the story develops, is not from some far-off star system, but the star-traveling descendants of an earth-born race of dinosaurs that evolved shortly before their own budding civilization was destroyed by an asteroid impact 65 million years ago. The ship bearing a member of the Kirraka, as these not-so-alien beings call themselves, lands in a remote area of Texas. When military units and aircraft move aggressively into the area surrounding the ship, they are attacked with powerful weapons from the alien ship (based on the assumption that star travelers wouldn't survive long without providing for their own protection against the spears and arrows of local savages) and the ship leaves with a powerful display of physical capabilities and disdain for the efforts to prevent their departure. A bizarre message is left at the landing spot that specifically names a person that the aliens wish to use as their sole contact, an obscure woman paleontologist and late Cretaceous period scholar, Edith Izzard. Contact with an advanced alien culture is viewed by Washington to have enormous economic and social consequences and importance. The resources of the federal government are turned to locating Edith and converting her to the governments "side" in dealings with the aliens. Edith is not easily convinced, or converted, to any side, especially as it becomes clear that if she does not cooperate she would forfeit her individual freedom and be coerced to do the government's will. When an asteroid is discovered heading for the earth, the importance of the technology available to an advanced culture seems crucial, and Edith's cooperation ever more essential in utilizing the power of the alien science to avoid global disaster. Edith retains her freedom, establishes contact with the alien, K. Word of the impending asteroid collision leaks to the population of the world, and chaos builds. The entire civilization can't be saved, but a compromise is worked out in partnership with the former residents of the planet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here Grof presents a useful model of the psychea model extended by his thirty years of studying non-ordinary states of consciousness. It is useful for understanding such phenomena as shamanism, mysticism, psychedelic states, spontaneous visionary experiences, and psychotic episodes. The model is also useful in explaining the dynamics of experiential psychotherapies and a variety of sociopolitical manifestations such as war and revolution. This book might have been entitled Beyond Drugs. The second part describes the principles and process of the non-pharmacological technique developed by the author and his wife, Christina, for self-exploration and for psychotherapy. Grof explores in detail the components of this technique. He describes its method, its effective mechanisms, as well as its goals and potential. Its practice is simple, since it utilizes the natural healing capacity of the psyche.

Download or read book Real Man Adventures written by T and published by McSweeney's. This book was released on 2012-11-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A few years ago, the novelist T Cooper wrote his parents a letter telling them he “wasn’t their daughter anymore.” And that was the “good news.” Real Man Adventures is Cooper’s brash, wildly inventive, and often comic exploration of the paradoxes and pleasures of masculinity. He takes us through his transition into identifying as male, and how he went on to marry his wife and become an adoring stepfather of two children. Alternately bemused and exasperated when he feels compelled to explain all this, Cooper never loses his sense of humor. “Ten Things People Assume I Understand About Women But Actually Don’t,” reads one chapter title, while another proffers: “Sometimes I Think the Whole of Modern History Can Be Explained by Testosterone.” A brilliant collage of letters, essays, interviews (with his brother, with his wife, with the parents of other transgender children), artwork, and sharp evocations of difficult conversations with old friends and puzzled bureaucrats, Real Man Adventures will forever change what you think about what it means to be a man.
Download or read book What If written by Eldon Taylor and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2011-03-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you awoke tomorrow with amnesia—no memory of who you are, what you like and dislike, and so on. Would you be the same person? What if, as in the movie The Matrix, you discovered that everything was a simulation and you were just a programmed component? What if everything you believed was false? Who would you be then? Eldon Taylor has been researching the power of the mind for more than 25 years. He has repeatedly demonstrated the overt attempts that have been made to control your thinking. While very interesting in theory, most of us do not understand this on a personal level. It is easy to understand the concept of Mind Programming when it is occurring with someone else, but most would deny that they too are victims. What If? is a very personal book. By using everyday situations and guiding you through numerous thought experiments, Eldon does an excellent job of peeling back the layers and revealing the dissonance in much of your thinking, beliefs, desires, and choices—contradictory beliefs held at the same time with no apparent awareness. Once you have seen your own mind with the filtered lenses removed, it is impossible to remain the same. That is why so many have praised this work as being absolutely life-changing—not just a fascinating read—but a transformational experience!

Download or read book An Engineer s Adventures from Outer to Inner Space and Friends Along the Way written by Fredric Hettinger and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My story began when I reflected on a comment I'd often said to my sons and friends- "I've never had a boring day in my working life." And I was truthful! By some magical combination of fortune and effort, I have enjoyed a completely fulfilling career as an engineer involved in a wide range of challenging projects throughout the world from "inner to outer space". My purpose in writing this book is to provide a glimpse into a number of projects that I was fortunate to participate in during my career. While people often consider the engineering profession as being filled with numbers and incomprehensible mathematics, or even worse- "boring", they dismiss engineering as a satisfactory career for themselves or possibly their children. In this book, however, I wish to show a different view of the engineer's work which can be exciting, challenging and fulfilling - anything but dull. My story will take the reader through a wide range of projects I've been involved in-from the beginning of our country's manned space flights and continuing to the exploration of the ocean's deepest depths. I will also introduce several of very talented "friends along the way" with whom I've had the very good fortune to have known and worked with. So, especially my young readers, travel with me in my book and discover how adventurous and fulfilling an engineer's work can be.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novelist and a neuroscientist uncover the secrets of human memory. What makes us remember? Why do we forget? And what, exactly, is a memory? With playfulness and intelligence, Adventures in Memory answers these questions and more, offering an illuminating look at one of our most fascinating faculties. The authors—two Norwegian sisters, one a neuropsychologist and the other an acclaimed writer—skillfully interweave history, research, and exceptional personal stories, taking readers on a captivating exploration of the evolving understanding of the science of memory from the Renaissance discovery of the hippocampus—named after the seahorse it resembles—up to the present day. Mixing metaphor with meta-analysis, they embark on an incredible journey: “diving for seahorses” for a memory experiment in Oslo fjord, racing taxis through London, and “time-traveling” to the future to reveal thought-provoking insights into remembering and forgetting. Along the way they interview experts of all stripes, from the world’s top neuroscientists to famous novelists, to help explain how memory works, why it sometimes fails, and what we can do to improve it. Filled with cutting-edge research and nimble storytelling, the result is a charming—and memorable—adventure through human memory.

Download or read book Outer Order Inner Calm written by Gretchen Rubin and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • In this lovely, easy-to-use illustrated guide to decluttering, the beloved author of The Happiness Project shows us how to take control of our stuff—and, by extension, our lives. Gretchen Rubin knows firsthand that creating order can make our lives happier, healthier, more productive, and more creative. But for most of us, a rigid, one-size-fits-all solution doesn't work. When we tailor our approach to suit our own particular challenges and habits, we can find inner calm. With a sense of fun, and a clear idea of what’s realistic for most people, Rubin suggests dozens of manageable tips and tricks for creating a more serene, orderly environment, including: • Never label anything “miscellaneous.” • Ask yourself, “Do I need more than one?” • Don’t aim for minimalism. • Remember: If you can’t retrieve it, you won’t use it. • Stay current with a child’s interests. • Beware the urge to “procrasticlear.” By getting rid of things we don’t use, don’t need, or don’t love, we free our minds (and our shelves) for what we truly value.
