Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musings of a Madman is a compilation of poetry stretching from a meager existence in New York's East Village, with Allen Ginsberg and other such poets to Paris, and environs and finally Colombia. The poems sketch a life style of a lonely man to a final relationship with Adriana, muse, Colombian Princessa and finally wife and a life in Westchester as a jazz musician and poet. It is an dilemma of the very guts of the creative mind with its madness, its hunger its suffering, culminating in a crescendo within existence where the end justify the means. The poems are extremely diverse, some easygoing, some serious, most devouring the beauty of life and its prize and pain, yet all capturing the verve and passion of Greenwich Village in the early 60's.

Book Synopsis Probable Impossibilities by : Alan Lightman
Download or read book Probable Impossibilities written by Alan Lightman and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2022-04-19 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed author of Einstein’s Dreams tackles "big questions like the origin of the universe and the nature of consciousness ... in an entertaining and easily digestible way” (Wall Street Journal) with a collection of meditative essays on the possibilities—and impossibilities—of nothingness and infinity, and how our place in the cosmos falls somewhere in between. Can space be divided into smaller and smaller units, ad infinitum? Does space extend to larger and larger regions, on and on to infinity? Is consciousness reducible to the material brain and its neurons? What was the origin of life, and can biologists create life from scratch in the lab? Physicist and novelist Alan Lightman, whom The Washington Post has called “the poet laureate of science writers,” explores these questions and more—from the anatomy of a smile to the capriciousness of memory to the specialness of life in the universe to what came before the Big Bang. Probable Impossibilities is a deeply engaged consideration of what we know of the universe, of life and the mind, and of things vastly larger and smaller than ourselves.

Book excerpt: A captivating and evocative work, Memoirs of a Madman is one of Flaubert's earliest writings, and forms the basis for his highly renowned L'Education Sentimentale. As a young man looks back on the years that have brought him to "madness," he recalls the innocence of his boyhood and his fond belief that he was blessed with a mind of genius. Yet, painfully, wretchedly, he also recounts his all-too-sudden entry into the adult world. For the day he caught sight of a beautiful woman by the sea marked the end of his flamboyant philosophizing, and the beginning of a tragic coming of age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her all-new supernatural thriller, bestselling indie horror author Ania Ahlborn asks: How far would you go for success? What would you be capable of if the promise of forever was real? With his marriage on the rocks and his life in shambles, washed-up true-crime writer Lucas Graham is desperate for a comeback, one more shot at the bestselling success he once enjoyed. His chance comes when he’s promised exclusive access to death row inmate Jeffrey Halcomb, the notorious cult leader and mass murderer who’s ready to break his silence after thirty years, and who contacted Lucas personally from his maximum-security cell. With nothing left to lose, Lucas leaves New York to live and work from the scene of the crime: a split-level farmhouse on a gray-sanded beach in Washington State whose foundation is steeped in the blood of Halcomb’s diviners—runaways who were drawn to his message of family, unity, and unconditional love. There, Lucas sets out to capture the real story of the departed faithful. Except that he’s not alone. For Jeffrey Halcomb promised his devout eternal life…and within these walls, they’re far from dead.
Download or read book Madman written by John Suler and published by . This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on real life experiences and written by an internationally recognized expert in emerging fields of psychology, this unique novel immerses the reader into the world of a psychology intern working on the psychiatric unit of a modern teaching hospital. With irreverent humor, a surreal imagination, and elements of eastern philosophy, this coming-of-age story captures the point of view of a young clinical psychologist, Thomas Holden. A keen observer with a comic eye, Holden's ongoing internal musings, along with his experiences with patients and staff, expose both the absurdity and idealism inherent in psychotherapeutic practice. Ultimately overwhelmed by exhaustion and bewildered by the paradoxical behaviors of his newest patient - a "John Doe" with no memory or identity - Holden wonders whether he too is losing his grip on reality. Description: Thomas Holden, a psychology intern working in a psychiatric hospital, is in trouble. The depressed patient he discharged yesterday was run over by a mail truck. Was it suicide? Is he responsible for her death? His new patient Richard Mobin is a violent paranoid schizophrenic who drowns baby birds and thinks men in raincoats are plotting to kill him. If that isn't enough, Holden is assigned yet another difficult patient - a "John Doe" who apparently has no memory or identity, a man whom police found wandering the highway, collecting and burying road kill. But is this John Doe truly crazy, or is there something he's hiding? Is he working some scheme against Holden? Reviews: "Madman is a genuine tour de force, maintaining an emotionally powerful grip on the reader while presenting an intellectually sound introduction to the world of clinical psychology. In the context of an action-packed suspenseful novel, Professor Suler presents the fundamental theoretical and historical foundations of clinical psychology side by side with the real-world practical problems that challenge the wisdom of the theories. This is a good read for all mental health professionals and anyone who is contemplating becoming one. I couldn t put it down until it ended, and I had a hard time letting go when it did." -- Edward S. Katkin, Leading Professor Emeritus of Psychology and Psychiatry, Stony Brook University College Student Reviews: "It pulled me in from beginning to end...hilarious " "One of the best novels I have read in college and a work of literature." "I liked every aspect of the book, it kept me wanting to read more. I never wanted to put it down." "I loved the character Thomas Holden. He s amazing. I would be reading along and then all of a sudden he would say something so outrageous or funny that I would have to highlight the sentence or reread it." "This book really inspired me to continue my career in psychology." "From the beginning it draws you in and makes you feel like you re really there." "Realistic and authentic. It takes the reader through three continuous days on the unit and the thoughts running through the psychologist s mind." About the Author: John Suler PhD, Professor of Psychology at Rider University, is internationally recognized as a founder of the fields of Cyberpsychology and Photographic Psychology. His groundbreaking work "The Psychology of Cyberspace" is one of the first and most widely cited online hypertext books. An expert in emerging fields of psychology, he has also published widely on the integration of eastern philosophy and psychoanalysis. His collected works on that subject can be found in the book "Contemporary Psychoanalysis and Eastern Thought" (State University of New York Press), a tour de force showcasing Suler s talent for dazzling integrative thinking combined with an experience-near writing style. The novel MADMAN follows from this work, combining the imagination of Vonnegut, the coming-of-age storytelling of JD Salinger, and the penchant for sidebar essays reminiscent of Robert Pirsig.

Download or read book The Madman written by Steven T. Stevenson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MADMAN In any scientific democracy, anomalies are discarded in favor of generally accepted norms established for the good of all—but what if you are the anomaly? Would you have the will to persevere and follow your destiny to the end, or would you roll over and adhere to the ever-growing list of social conventions telling you who you are? Steven is an outsider delivered unsuspectingly into an environment controlled by impersonal and predetermined rules. Despite attempts to strip him of his identity, Steven has a sense of being different, which is not a laudable trait in this world where being different spells destruction. Although fictional in nature, The Madman exists in the shadows of our current reality. With every new generation, the screws are tightened down further, and somehow people still find comfort in the jaws that clutch them. Fortunately, this yarn is set in a future that has not yet come, but if it does arrive someday, what would you do if faced with being an anomaly in a society that would rather have you discarded than permit your continued existence? “Stevenson delivers a bleak view of the future that – in its obsessions with technology and easy sensual pleasures – is alarmingly close to the present.” —BlueInk Review “An energetic and engaging vision of a dark dystopia.” —Kirkus Review
