Unofficial four part biography of influential rock band The Who. Formed in 1964, The Who's classic line-up of Roger Daltrey on vocals, Pete Townshend on guitar, John Entwistle on bass and Keith Moon on drums found success quickly with the iconic single 'My Generation' and their predilection for destroying their instruments at the end of shows. This biography tells the story of the band through the years, with the aid of archive interviews and contributions from music journalists.

YOUTH, MIDDLE-AGE, and YOU-LOOK-GREAT Dying To Come Back As A Memoir With reckless ravenous scientific curiosity. Stephen Rosen disassembled a clock and swallowed a part at age two. At age four, impulsively chasing a cat up a tree, he impaled himself upon a steel-spike picket fence. As a teenager, he fell in love with Relativity. At age twenty-one, he saved three lives including his own. In his mid-twenties he became an assistant professor of physics and a father. In his thirties, he was visiting scientist at Institut d? Astrophysique de Paris/Centre d?Etudes Nucleaires de Saclay doing research on cosmic radiation; was tear-gassed on May Day soixante-huit; divorced; philandered his way through the sexual revolution; served at a prominent think-tank doing top-secret strategy for the defense department; and wrote a best-selling book, ?Future Facts?(1976). At fifty-one, he married a beautiful and brilliant woman (Celia Paul, the sunshine of his life) who helped transform him into a mensch and a ?hero? (Talmudic definition). He created the Scientific Career Transitions Program in 1990, and taught hundreds of PhD and double-PhD Soviet Jewish emigre refusnik-scientists how to find jobs in the U.S. utilizing their exceptional Russian credentials. He became ?a person of interest? to the FBI, the CIA, and the KGB. Sponsored by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, he and Celia Paul wrote the 1997 book ?Career Renewal? for American scientists. In the later best years of his life he built a tree-house, became a sculptor and photographer, wrote articles, books, and original songs for family and friends, and observed and helped his children and grand-children become adults. He survived near-death twice--from a stroke and subsequent loss of half his blood, and wrote his obituary even though he has a genetic marker for longevity. He exercises and swims regularly, and in the gym's locker room decided a sign on the swimsuit spin-dryer referred to his well-lived life: ?This unit is self-timed and will shut down at the end of its cycle. It will not reset?.

Tucked away in ancient Sanskrit and Bengali texts is a secret teaching, a blissful devotional (bhakti) tradition that involves sacred congregational chanting (kirtana), mindfulness practices (japa, smaranam), and the deepening of one's relationship with God (rasa). Brought to the world's stage by Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486-1533), and fully documented by his immediate followers, the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan, these unprecedented teachings were passed down from master to student in Gaudiya Vaishnava lineages. The Golden Avatara of Love: Sri Chaitanya's Life and Teachings, by contemporary scholar Steven J. Rosen, makes the profound truths of this confidential knowledge easily accessible for an English language audience. In his well-researched text, modern readers-spiritual practitioners, scholars, and seekers of knowledge alike-will encounter a treasure of hitherto unrevealed spiritual teachings, and be able to fathom sublime dimensions of Sri Chaitanya's method. Using the ancient texts themselves and the findings of contemporary academics, Rosen succeeds in summarizing and establishing Sri Chaitanya's life and doctrine for the modern world.

Like taxes, death is inevitable. Everyone experiences it sooner or later. This book offers perspectives on death and dying from all major religions, written by experts in each of those religions. Focusing on the major world traditions, it offers important information about what death and dying means to those practicing these faiths. The second part of the book adds a necessary and truly unique perspective - a personal look at how people actually die in the various world religions, as told by a hospital chaplain, with anecdotes and experiences that bring the death process to life, so to speak.

Each chapter engages the theology of each religion, giving quotes from the literature of their respective scriptural traditions, to explain the process of dying, death, and the afterlife. In doing so, each author draws on the history of his respective tradition and looks at real-life figures, exemplars of the tradition, showing how practitioners view death and hope to one day engage the death process themselves.
