Have you ever been to a race involving plastic pink flamingos? Here
is your chance to be there, pulling for your favorite: the pink
one.
Or maybe you would like to go on a train ride with a lonely
college professor, listening in as he meets the woman of his
dreams.
How about going along with a young man as he tries to outrun a
nightmare that's following close behind him, showing up at every
stop he makes?
Steven B. Pavelsky has included these adventures "Racing Plastic
Pink Flamingos," an anthology full of short stories, poetry and the
complete stage play "Writer's Cafe": one of the earliest comedies
about romantic encounters on the Internet.
If you enjoy sci-fi, romance, and adventure, along with the
hysterical onstage antics of characters like Captain Banana or
Airgold the butterfly, this is the collection for you!
Technology is an integral part our world. But how does inter-human
technology affect our ability to be present to one another, to God,
to ourselves, and to the world around us? Modern technologies are
reshaping human relationships. While they offer new possibilities
for presence across time and space, they also function as either a
substitute for human relationships or as a filter that mediates
relationships between ourselves and others. In our technologically
saturated world, it is vital that we become aware of how these
technologies alter our perceptions, our actions, and our
relationships. Religious and Cultural Implications of
Technology-Mediated Relationships in a Post Pandemic World offers a
variety of positions on how technology is influencing religious
communal and cultural life. There is no doubt that our interaction
with technology will shape the human community up ahead. These
essays provide a basis for thoughtful choice and action.

A complete history of human endeavors in space, this book also
moves beyond the traditional topics of human spaceflight, space
technology, and space science to include political, social,
cultural, and economic issues, and also commercial, civilian, and
military applications. In two expertly written volumes, Space
Exploration and Humanity: A Historical Encyclopedia covers all
aspects of space flight in all participating nations, ranging from
the Cold War–era beginnings of the space race to the lunar
landings and the Apollo-Soyuz mission; from the Shuttle disasters
and the Hubble telescope to Galileo, the Mars Rover, and the
International Space Station. The book moves beyond the traditional
topics of human spaceflight, space technology, and space science to
include political, social, cultural, and economic issues, and also
commercial, civilian, and military applications. Produced in
conjunction with the History Committee of the American
Astronautical Society, this work divides its coverage into six
sections, each beginning with an overview essay, followed by an
alphabetically organized series of entries on topics such as
astrophysics and planetary science; civilian and commercial space
applications; human spaceflight and microgravity science; space and
society; and space technology and engineering. Whether
investigating a specific issue or event or tracing an overarching
historic trend, students and general readers will find this an
invaluable resource for launching their study of one of humanity's
most extraordinary endeavors.
