"No Such Thing as Terminal: The Re-Discovery of the Lost Secret German Cure for Cancer and The Fountain of Youth. " Genetic Engineering is not just a futuristic fantasy which is often how Hollywood portrays it to be. Rather it exists in the here and the now and has been in existence with a technical theory that has been giving positive results since the 1930's. These innovations have however been secretly suppressed for a multitude of reasons not the least of which is political power. Now in this book is discussed one person's accidental hit on the secret cure for cancer using genetic engineering. A cure which has existed since the 1930's and has repeatedly been tried both in vivo and in vitro. Herein is explored one person's speculations, scientific discoveries, and evidence of both the credibility of the medicine and the conspiracy of the cover-up. DNA was not first discovered by Crick and Watson nor were they really the first to describe its structure. This was done long before them with the advent of the invention of Quantum Mechanics which began in earnest in 1926 with the work of Schrodinger and earlier with the work of Von Laue in crystallography.

William Goff
R578 Discovery Miles 5 780 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Solitary Thoughts is a collection of passages meant to impart a narrative of the author's struggles to cope in a society that is too preoccupied with commercial self-interest. Values such as efficiency and expedience rise to the fore in a culture polarized between production and consumption. People are stereotyped and assaulted with expectations that threaten their ability to live. The author attempts to offer a glimpse of what life becomes, having been pushed to the periphery of what is acceptable.

Montessori - Living the Good Life (Hardcover): Connie Ripley Lujan Montessori - Living the Good Life (Hardcover)
Connie Ripley Lujan
R764 Discovery Miles 7 640 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Montessori: Living the Good Life will surprise you more than you can imagine. With a master's degree in theology, author Connie Ripley Lujan delves deep into Maria's spiritual understanding of the roots of war. Passionately she explains how we can make a difference.

Maria Montessori discovered the secret miracle of childhood over one hundred years ago. Her vision of peace lives on in this passionate memoir of a disciple of her spirit.

Maria's enlightened revelation of the newborn's talent to construct his future life with his own mind is illuminated step by step as each chapter probes deeper into mankind's existence.

The key to assisting the new ones, Maria tells us, lies in the adult's willingness to collaborate with the child's desire for an appropriate environment. Education, for the child and the adult, is the crucial element.

A thoughtful guide for mothers, fathers, grandparents, and all educators and citizens concerned for peace in the home, schools, and world, Montessori-Living the Good Life, about the child in your arms and the child in your heart, is for everyone.

The author goes where no one dares to go, explicating Maria's concepts of the origins of war and peace and how we can make a difference.

The greatest need of professing Christians today is a better, deeper, and fuller knowledge of Christ. The Christian life can be described as getting to know God better every day. Every Christian should regularly?daily?read the Word of God. We should find time for quiet time or personal devotion. For over 20 years I have been using commentaries in my devotions. The blessings derived from the commentaries is overwhelming. I am writing this commentary to share some of those blessings and lessons I have learned over the years.

Playful Intelligence - Digitizing Tradition (Hardcover): Henry Sussman Playful Intelligence - Digitizing Tradition (Hardcover)
Henry Sussman
R4,329 Discovery Miles 43 290 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This is a guide, in theory and in practice, to how current technological changes have impacted our interaction with texts and with each other. Henry Sussman rereads pivotal moments in literary, philosophical and cultural modernity as anticipating the cybernetic discourse that has increasingly defined theory since the computer revolution. Cognitive science, psychoanalysis and systems theory are paralleled to current trends in literary and philosophical theory. Chapters alternate between theory and readings of literary texts, resulting in a broad but rigorously grounded framework for the relation between literature and computer science. This book is a refreshing perspective on the analog-orientated tradition of theory in the humanities - and offers the first literary-textual genealogy of the digital.

R821 Discovery Miles 8 210 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Does it not seem strange that these patrons of truth have no actual base for the truth they espouse? Should not these champions of reason offer some plausible foundation for the rational thought they employ? Who can but doubt these adversaries of God who cannot even account for the moral sense by which they denounce Him? What shall we say of masters of science who would deprive science of the undergirding of truth and reason?

These are not lords of their own domain, as they might suppose. They are squatters on a land belonging to another--mere pretenders, plagiarizers of values not their own. Like the Prodigal Son, they have taken the resources bequeathed by a loving Father and squandered them in futile meanderings.

No one should take these men as seriously as they take themselves. They are not reaching for the far horizon line. Rather they are trapped in their tiny, cramped valley called physicality and have chosen to ignore every other doorway to reality.

They are not men reaching for the stars. They are rather like those who wade through muck and mire, stirring up more as they go.

Every expert in journalism and politics has jumped into the arena of thought with a multitude of books on their opinions The Book FOCUS' is a look at Arrogance and Greed as an American cancer, it applies analytical engineering skills to humanities problems in today's world from an engineer's stand point, that of an everyday citizen; a Joe plumber', whose had all we can take of being told we are un-American by our politicians, it intends to speak out on behalf of the everyday citizen who may have serious doubts as to what is what. It offers solutions which seem to be logical and somewhat easy to see. Though easy to see they require a major rethinking of the constitution to fit the modern society's situation. Simply tired of talk show host and media moguls pointing out the problems but shy of offering difficult solutions for which they could be held accountable. Engineers or Plumbers just aren't satisfied with finding a cause of the problem, but are about fixing it. That sometimes requires redesign or fix, correcting design errors. But we do eventually FIX IT. The Lawyer wants arbitration until either a compromise or settlement occurs. Media Moguls want to have an endless supply of Sensational Stories. Politics may be how it sounds, Poly (many) + Ticks (blood suckers). Political (this or that occupation) well, draw your conclusion.

The Meaning of Culture (Paperback, Main): John Cowper Powys The Meaning of Culture (Paperback, Main)
John Cowper Powys
R622 Discovery Miles 6 220 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

John Cowper Powys could never be straightforward or orthodox but here he sets off with a useful purpose. 'The aim of this book,' he declares, 'is to narrow down a vague and somewhat evasive conception, which hitherto, like ''aristocracy'' or ''liberty'', has come to imply a number of contradictory and even paradoxical elements, and to give it, not, of course, a purely logical form, but a concrete, particular, recognizable form, malleable and yielding enough and relative enough, but with a definite and quite unambiguous temper, tone, quality, atmosphere, of its own.' The book is in two parts: Analysis of Culture which deals with, in separate chapters, Philosophy, Literature, Poetry, Painting and Religion: Application of Culture which covers Happiness, Love, Nature, The Art of Reading, Human Relations, Destiny and Obstacles to Culture. John Cowper Powys hoped 'that the fine word ''culture'' . . . might lend itself to an easy, humane and liberal discussion - a sort of one-man Platonic symposium - and even turn out to contain, among its various implications, no unworthy clue to the narrow path of the wise upon earth.' He succeeds completely, in his own idiosyncratic way, in achieving that. 'Mr Powys is to be congratulated on having written a book of the kind that most needs writing and most deserves to be read . . . Here in a dozen chapters of glowing and eloquent prose, Mr Powys describes for very reader that citadel which is himself, and explains to him how it may be strengthened and upheld and on what terms it is most worth upholding. . .'
