WALTER'S ENCYCLOPEDIA is a unique scientific and personal research glossary published by a maverick researcher of our times. This present version of the glossary is addressed to the academic world. An illustrated edition is equally available and comes in two volumes. The research goes back to 1985 and thus spans a period of 25 years. In the first part, terms are explicated that are general, redefined or proprietary. In the second part, personalities of fame and renowned people are descibed who had some or the other impact upon the author's perception and value system. The most important entries of this research glossary are those that are proprietary to the author, such as 'The Eight Patterns of Living', 'The Science of Emonics', 'Emosexuality', 'Emosexcoaching', 'Life Authoring', 'Live Your Love', 'Oedipal Culture', 'Pedoemotions', 'Pedoerotics', 'Primary Power', or 'The Legal Split in Child Protection'.

Our hearts sink when we hear the story: a small child is abducted from their home and vanished without a trace. We cling to our own kids a little tighter knowing that it can happen to anyone. We hope for a miracle, but know the reality is once they've been gone for more than a few days, they will never be found alive. But sometimes, often in the most miraculous ways, they are found--months, even years, later. The 15 stories here recount the stories of some of the worlds most famous kidnapping cases, and shows how the victims survived the cruelty and were ultimately rescued.

My task in this work was to give you every shade of grey available. However, I have singularly failed in this task. I only recently discovered, after many years researching every shade of grey, that the printing technique used in this book only uses black ink. Therefore, the shades of grey presented are merely an illusion.
