Download or read book Alien Viruses written by Robert M. Wood and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first of its kind, delves into the many leaked documents that describe research into alien biology and virology. Dr. Robert Wood's forensic analysis of the documents themselves argues strongly for their authenticity. And their implications are startling. Alien viruses are not only deadly, but are of key importance to biological warfare on Earth. Wood examines the mysterious deaths of key microbiologists and virologists, offers insight into the huge government secret expenditures, and provides an incredible revelation from an Area 51 insider on autopsies of bodies of unknown origin. With assistance from seasoned researcher Nick Redfern, extensively footnoted, and with a comprehensive Index, this is the authoritative treatment of the subject.
Download or read book Alien Virus Love Disaster written by Abbey Mei Otis and published by Small Beer Press. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip K. Dick Award finalist Washington Post Best Science Fiction and Fantasy of 2018 Abbey Mei Otis’s short stories are contemporary fiction at its strongest: taking apart the supposed equality that is clearly just not there, putting humans under an alien microscope, putting humans under government control, putting kids from the moon into a small beach town and then the putting the rest of the town under the microscope as they react in ways we ope they would, and then, of course, in ways we’d hope they don’t. Otis has long been fascinated in using strange situations to explore dynamics of power, oppression, and grief, and the twelve stories collected here are at once a striking indictment of the present and a powerful warning about the future. “After I read this book, I woke up with bumpy, reddish growths along my spine. They burst, releasing marvels: aliens, robots, prefab houses, vinyl, chainlink, styrofoam, star stuff, tales from the edge of eviction, so many new worlds. Alien Virus Love Disaster is a super-intelligent infection. Let Abbey Mei Otis give you some lumps.” — Sofia Samatar, author of Tender

Download or read book A Planet of Viruses written by Carl Zimmer and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, scientists have been warning us that a pandemic was all but inevitable. Now it's here, and the rest of us have a lot to learn. Fortunately, science writer Carl Zimmer is here to guide us. In this compact volume, he tells the story of how the smallest living things known to science can bring an entire planet of people to a halt--and what we can learn from how we've defeated them in the past. Planet of Viruses covers such threats as Ebola, MERS, and chikungunya virus; tells about recent scientific discoveries, such as a hundred-million-year-old virus that infected the common ancestor of armadillos, elephants, and humans; and shares new findings that show why climate change may lead to even deadlier outbreaks. Zimmer’s lucid explanations and fascinating stories demonstrate how deeply humans and viruses are intertwined. Viruses helped give rise to the first life-forms, are responsible for many of our most devastating diseases, and will continue to control our fate for centuries. Thoroughly readable, and, for all its honesty about the threats, as reassuring as it is frightening, A Planet of Viruses is a fascinating tour of a world we all need to better understand.

Download or read book Newly Characterized Protist and Invertebrate Viruses written by Heinz Fraenkel-Conrat and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time seems ripe for a critical compendium of that segment of the biological universe we call viruses. Virology, as a science, having passed only recently through its descriptive phase of naming and num bering, has probably reached that stage at which relatively few new truly new-viruses will be discovered. Triggered by the intellectual probes and techniques of molecular biology, genetics, biochemical cytology, and high resolution microscopy and spectroscopy, the field has experienced a genuine information explosion. Few serious attempts have been made to chronicle these events. This comprehensive series, which will comprise some 6000 pages in a total of about 18 volumes, represents a commitment by a large group of active investigators to analyze, digest, and expostulate on the great mass of data relating to viruses, much of which is now amorphous and disjointed, and scattered throughout a wide literature. In this way, we hope to place the entire field in perspective, and to develop an invalu able reference and sourcebook for researchers and students at all levels. This series i~ designed as a continuum that can be entered anywhere, but which also provides a logical progression of developing facts and integrated concepts.
Download or read book Aliens Secrets and the Path to Ascension written by SCOTT CAMPBELL and published by Scott Campbell. This book was released on 2021-12-07 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OUR CREATORS REVEALED IN OUR DNA AND THREE MORE MAJOR TOPICS How we came about is now very clear from two distinct lines of scientific evidence. The answer to where we come from remained hidden in our DNA until discovered in 2013. In the compelling book Alien Secrets, The Path to Ascension by Scott Campbell, SECTION DNA explains the historical event of discovery and accompanying evidence. DNA, it turns out, is a masterpiece of intelligent biomathematical coding by an extremely advanced alien civilization, making all life on Earth of alien origin. Further intervention may have boosted our intelligence. The Exogenesis Theory, also known as the Directed Panspermia Theory, or simply the Seed Theory, became first popularized by Nobel Prize winner and co-discoverer of DNA Francis Crick. The theory further begs biological and evolutionary proof of alien "super-microbes" on Earth. It has it in our family of Giant Viruses and our microbe history of evolution. At the same time as "Mitochondrial Eve," about 200,000 years ago, the single mother of all of us, the first Homo sapiens, boasted a robust increase in the size of skull and brain and a new, elongated shape. It proved itself to be about 150 cubic centimeters bigger than modern humans. Improved mitochondria for increased brain energy became part of the package. Perhaps aliens, the ultimate scientists, intervened. Three other sections include a complete analysis of the Roswell incident; alien types, technological methods, likely agendas, and the influence of ancient aliens on major religions. Since day one, aliens have dominated life on Earth. Takeaway: Studying alien technology, consciousness, and skillsets will lead modern humans to a similar mastery and will not only help guarantee our survival as a species but guide us into multiple and diverse levels of ascension. Sit back, get comfortable, and enjoy reading this revealing scientific inquiry into the Earth's most complex and important phenomenon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: UFOs. Aliens. Strange crop circles. Giant figures scratched in the desert surface along the coast of Peru. The amazing alignment of the pyramids. Strange lines of clouds in the sky. The paranormal is alive and well in the American cultural landscape. In UFOs, Chemtrails, and Aliens, Donald R. Prothero and Tim Callahan explore why such demonstrably false beliefs thrive despite decades of education and scientific debunking. Employing the ground rules of science and the standards of scientific evidence, Prothero and Callahan discuss a wide range of topics including the reliability of eyewitness testimony, psychological research into why people want to believe in aliens and UFOs, and the role conspiratorial thinking plays in UFO culture. They examine a variety of UFO sightings and describe the standards of evidence used to determine whether UFOs are actual alien spacecraft. Finally, they consider our views of aliens and the strong cultural signals that provide the shapes and behaviors of these beings. While their approach is firmly based in science, Prothero and Callahan also share their personal experiences of Area 51, Roswell, and other legendary sites, creating a narrative that is sure to engross both skeptics and believers.

Download or read book Viral Behaviors written by Roberta Buiani and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-08-22 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a new era of global virology that requires novel methodologies to improve the comprehension of viruses and viral phenomena, Viral Behaviors explores the cultural, material, and artistic significance of viral agents. Across a rich variety of case studies stemming from different areas of interest-covering literature, the graphic arts and scientific visualization, as well as performance, installation and bioart-this book asks whether embracing the complexity of viruses, rather than obsessively measuring, dissecting, or precisely mapping their parts and manifestations, may provide new methodological directions in the intersection of scientific thinking and artistic practice. The book examines the struggles and successes of science and technology to tame the elusive nature and behavior of viruses, and the potential of art-based and cross-disciplinary collaborations to better communicate their complex making and intense entanglement with the world at large. Combining perspectives from art, philosophy, science and technology, it places biological and informational viruses alongside each other, revealing that, while the two types of agents affect the world in very different ways, their histories and manifestations contain surprising similarities that speak to a cultural continuum. Viral Behaviors unravels the extraordinary mobility of viruses across disciplines, and their intersection with all aspects of culture, rather than their import within one specific disciplinary realm. It shows how the numerous attempts by artists, scientists and professionals to tackle, represent and appropriate viruses, and their intricate dynamism, can lead to new nuanced and sophisticated understandings of these substances and their related phenomena, and reveals the contribution of non-measurable or non-traditional practices in their construction and dissemination.
Download or read book We Caused the Roswell Crashes written by Phil H. Clark and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-10-19 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 1947 Roswell incident was not a weather balloon but the result of not one or two but three UFO crashes! For sixty-four years the truth has remained hidden until two people have finally come forth to give their first-hand eye witness account of what really happened. They call themselves the forgotten witnesses. For the first time the full facts are revealed which will correct some facts that Roswell UFO researchers have assumed was correct. Consider yourself lucky to have one first-hand eye witness to an event; to have two first-hand eye witnesses to a major controversial event is extremely rare. From day one, the Roswell incident has been surrounded by controversy, government cover-ups, lies, and deception because of the lack of a first-hand eye witness account when the incident was occurring. It is difficult to refute an account told from two living witnesses who were on the scene when the incident happened whose only intent is to set the story straight. Their account, as told within this book, will certainly ignite the passion of Roswell UFO researchers once more.
