Download or read book The Rainbreaker written by Steve Simon and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2007-07 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You just watched the 6 o'clock news. Now ask yourself, "When is God going to throw in the towel?" God came close once before: The Flood of Genesis. And John, in the last book of the Bible, wrote the newscast for the Armageddon. So where do we stand right now? Steve Simon doesn't presume to know. After all, he's an agnostic. But he does choose to believe in God. However, he's losing his faith in man. On the other hand, he hasn't lost his sense of humor and he has a cat to guide him through the hard times. Makes sense. The Rainbreaker is a fable that attacks some tough moral issues with a lot of good-natured fun. Lest you think that the author is poking fun at God, rest assured. God always comes out on top. It's "stupid human tricks" (such as the failure of nearly all human institutions) that convince Steve Simon that God will not destroy the world but simply replace humans with animals. Or something like that. Adults who've enjoyed "Marley & Me" and the satire of Amrose Bierce, P.J. O'Rourke, and Chris Buckley will laugh out loud at this genre-bender with a message.

Download or read book The Further Inventions of Daedalus written by David E. H. Jones and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1999 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If so, or indeed if not, then Daedalus is your man. This book brings together 148 of his highly scientific proposals on these and allied matters. Daedalus, the court jester in the palace of science and engineering, began his amazing career in 1964 in the weekly magazine New Scientist. His remit, brilliantly achieved, was to confuse the scientific community in general. In 1988 he graduated to The Guardian and also to the prestigious pages of Nature, where he bamboozles the Nobel prizewinners. His delusive proposals steam boldly out along the solid track of accepted science and technology, but somehow rapidly go off the rails -- or do they? This second compilation of his finest schemes includes a look at one from his first compilation (The Inventions of Daedalus, 1982) which did indeed wind up in the Nobel prize lists.

Download or read book The Great Transition written by Nick Fuller Googins and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This richly imaginative, immersive, and “electrifyingly relevant” (William Kent Krueger, New York Times bestselling author) debut novel follows a shocking disappearance amid the climate crisis of our near future—perfect for fans of Station Eleven and The Last Thing He Told Me. Emi Vargas, whose parents helped save the world, is tired of being told how lucky she is to have been born after the climate crisis. But following the public assassination of a dozen climate criminals, Emi’s mother, Kristina, disappears as a possible suspect, and Emi’s illusions of utopia are shattered. A determined Emi and her father, Larch, journey from their home in Nuuk, Greenland to New York City, now a lightly populated storm-surge outpost built from the ruins of the former metropolis. But they aren’t the only ones looking for Kristina. Thirty years earlier, Larch first came to New York with a team of volunteers to save the city from rising waters and torrential storms. Kristina was on the frontlines of a different battle, fighting massive wildfires that ravaged the western United States. They became part of a movement that changed the world—The Great Transition—forging a new society and finding each other in process. Alternating between Emi’s desperate search for her mother and a meticulously rendered, heart-stopping account of her parents’ experiences during The Great Transition, this novel beautifully shows how our actions today determine our fate tomorrow. A triumphant debut, The Great Transition is “a book for the present and the future—read this and you will be changed” (Michelle Min Sterling, New York Times bestselling author).
