Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Crusade Against Consumption Not only is consumption a preventable dis ease; it is now known to be a curable disease. But it can be cured only provided it is taken in time, and provided the proper hygiene is adopted. If it is not taken in time, it soon reaches the incurable stage. Consumption is not a self-limiting disease, but a parasitic disease. It begins at some small point, like a fire in a house, and. Like the fire can be smothered and put out if it does not get too much headway. But when once beyond a certain point, it cannot be extinguished. Consequently, an early diagnosis is One Of the important medical questions Of the day, and fortunately the medical profession is gradually waking up to the fact that it has not been diagnosing this disease early enough. It has depended too much on physical signs, and too little on microscopic examination Of the sputum. Free examination Of sputum is now provided by most city boards Of health, and ought to be availed Of by every one who has a persistent cough with yellow sputum.

Download or read book A Jealous God written by Pamela R. Winnick and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2005-10-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at the personal and professional motivations behind the scientific community’s dogmatic rejection of religion and how this impacts the culture. The age-old war between religion and science has taken a new twist. Once the dedicated scientist-martyr fought heroically against rigid religionists. But now the tables have turned, and it is established science crusading against religion, pushing atheistic agendas in the classroom, in textbooks, and in the media. This book shows how science has now become a religion of its own—an often fanatical one at that—furiously preaching atheism, punishing dissenters, dictating how and what we should think, and subtly inserting its worldviews in everything from education to entertainment. And, with stunning clarity, it proves that, with billions of dollars up for grabs in the race for stem cell research, intellectual integrity has been replaced with good old-fashioned greed. With sharp insight and completely original reporting, this book defiantly shows the extent to which science is beating down religion and how this systematic tyranny is unmistakably weakening culture and society.
Download or read book The Everyday Crusade written by Eric L. McDaniel and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is causing the American public to move more openly into alt-right terrain? What explains the uptick in anti-immigrant hysteria, isolationism, and an increasing willingness to support alternatives to democratic governance? The Everyday Crusade provides an answer. The book points to American Religious Exceptionalism (ARE), a widely held religious nationalist ideology steeped in myth about the nation's original purpose. The book opens with a comprehensive synthesis of research on nationalism and religion in American public opinion. Making use of survey data spanning three different presidential administrations, it then develops a new theory of why Americans form extremist attitudes, based on religious exceptionalism myths. The book closes with an examination of what's next for an American public that confronts new global issues, alongside existing challenges to perceived cultural authority. Timely and enlightening, The Everyday Crusade offers a critical touchstone for better understanding American national identity and the exclusionary ideologies that have plagued the nation since its inception.
Download or read book Symbolic Crusade written by Joseph R. Gusfield and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The important role of the Temperance movement throughout American history is analyzed as clashes and conflicts between rival social systems, cultures, and status groups. Sometimes the "dry" is winning the classic battle for prestige and political power. Sometimes, as in today's society, he is losing. This significant contribution to the theory of status conflict also discloses the importance of political acts as symbolic acts and offers a dramatistic theory of status politics, Gusfield provides a useful addition to the economic and psychological modes of analysis current in the study of political and social movements.
Download or read book Blindsided written by James L Ferraro and published by Gildan Media LLC aka G&D Media. This book was released on 2019-09-23 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1996, an unprecedented decade-long courtroom battle was waged in Florida to help bring justice and hope to the family of a young boy born with no eyes after his mother was doused outside of a local u-pick farm by a chemical fungicide believed to have caused his birth defect and the birth defects of many other children. It was a battle that nearly everyone but attorney Jim Ferraro deemed unwinnable. After all, it involved one of the world’s most powerful industrial giants. In the process, it was a fight that changed the landscape of tort law forever. Before it was over Castillo-vs-DuPont would go down in history as the first and one of the most important cases of its kind, setting precedent and also sparking a crucial debate over the questionable use of what is known as the “junk-science defense.” Blindsided is a blow-by-blow account of how a lone attorney challenged a dangerous threat to public health....and how the defenders never saw defeat coming. It’s a real life David and Goliath story―a true courtroom drama for the ages.
Download or read book America s Longest War written by Steven B. Duke and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2014-06-24 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's war on drugs. It makes headlines, tops political agendas and provokes powerful emotions. But is it really worth it? That’s the question posed by Steven Duke and Albert Gross in this groundbreaking book. They argue that America’s biggest victories in the war on drugs are the erosion of our constitutional rights, the waste of billions of dollars and an overwhelmed court system. After careful research and thought, they make a strong case for the legalization of drugs. It’s a radical idea, but has its time come?
Download or read book Crusade Against the Grail written by Otto Rahn and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2006-09-22 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation of the book that reveals the Cathar stronghold at Montségur to be the repository of the Holy Grail • Presents the history of the Papal persecution of the Cathars that lies hidden in the medieval epic Parzival and in the poetry of the troubadours • Provides new insights into the life and death of this gifted and controversial author Crusade Against the Grail is the daring book that popularized the legend of the Cathars and the Holy Grail. The first edition appeared in Germany in 1933 and drew upon Rahn’s account of his explorations of the Pyrenean caves where the heretical Cathar sect sought refuge during the 13th century. Over the years the book has been translated into many languages and exerted a large influence on such authors as Trevor Ravenscroft and Jean-Michel Angebert, but it has never appeared in English until now. Much as German archaeologist Heinrich Schliemann used Homer’s Iliad to locate ancient Troy, Rahn believed that Wolfram von Eschenbach’s medieval epic Parzival held the keys to the mysteries of the Cathars and the secret location of the Holy Grail. Rahn saw Parzival not as a work of fiction, but as a historical account of the Cathars and the Knights Templar and their guardianship of the Grail, a “stone from the stars.” The Crusade that the Vatican led against the Cathars became a war pitting Roma (Rome) against Amor (love), in which the Church triumphed with flame and sword over the pure faith of the Cathars.
