Book Synopsis The dome of thought by : William Hughes
Download or read book The dome of thought written by William Hughes and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dome of thought is the first study of phrenology based primarily on the popular – rather than medical – appreciation of this important and controversial pseudoscience. With detailed reference to the reports printed in popular newspapers from the early years of the nineteenth century to the fin de siècle, the book provides an unequalled insight into the Victorian public’s understanding of the techniques, assumptions and implications of defining a person’s character by way of the bumps on their skull. Highly relevant to the study of the many authors – Wilkie Collins, Charles Dickens, and George Eliot, among them – whose fiction was informed by the imagery of phrenology, The dome of thought will prove an essential resource for anybody with an interest in the popular and literary culture of the nineteenth century, including literary scholars, medical historians and the general reader.

Book excerpt: In search of destiny, two paths intersect. Finding light in a time of darkness. In search of her mother’s promise. Discover meaning or face his end. In the year 2052, the Dome Initiative was introduced. Put in place after a worldwide pandemic cost the lives of around 17% of the human population. Fear of another pandemic and the promise of economic stability should the repeat occur, cities worldwide began constructing glass domes over their cities. A newly created, flexible, almost indestructible glass, allowed for the creation of immense glass structures. Though all fell short in scale to a City Dome. Twenty kilometres wide, allowing the city space to grow within. Outside the world's eco system collapsed creating weather upheaval and food shortages. A new pandemic spread as the population outside the domes fell into crisis. Civilization began to collapse. In a radical decision two mandates were put in place. One was a specially created genetic inoculation to the pandemic now sweeping the globe. The second was isolating the inoculated population inside the domes to protect them from not only the deteriorating environment but attacks from outside. Now five hundred years later and the effects of the genetic manipulation are truly apparent. Effecting the body’s ability to produce certain chemicals, specifically the ones responsible for desire and attraction. Safe within their dome’s life has stagnated as the world outside is forgotten. No longer do people seek love or connection. All now is discovery, what one can learn, invent. or achieve. Though outside life is not as dead as the dome dwellers think. Life still clings to existence and may hold the key to the world's salvation.

Book excerpt: On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when -- or if -- it will go away. Dale Barbara, Iraq vet and now a short-order cook, finds himself teamed with a few intrepid citizens -- town newspaper owner Julia Shumway, a physician's assistant at the hospital, a select-woman, and three brave kids. Against them stands Big Jim Rennie, a politician who will stop at nothing -- even murder -- to hold the reins of power, and his son, who is keeping a horrible secret in a dark pantry. But their main adversary is the Dome itself. Because time isn't just short. It's running out.

Book Synopsis All Flesh Is Grass by : Clifford D. Simak
Download or read book All Flesh Is Grass written by Clifford D. Simak and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before Under the Dome, this novel of a town trapped within an invisible force field earned a Nebula Award nomination for the author of Way Station. Nothing much ever happens in Millville, a small, secluded Middle-American community—until the day Brad Carter discovers he is unable to leave. And the nearly bankrupt real estate agent is not the only one being held prisoner; every resident is confined within the town’s boundaries by an invisible force field that cannot be breached. As local tensions rapidly reach breaking point, a set of bizarre circumstances leads Brad to the source of their captivity, making him humanity’s reluctant ambassador to an alien race of sentient flora, and privy to these jailers’ ultimate intentions. But some of Millville’s most powerful citizens do not take kindly to Carter’s “collaboration with the enemy,” even under the sudden threat of global apocalypse. Decades before Stephen King trapped an entire town in Under the Dome, science fiction Grand Master Clifford D. Simak explored the shocking effects of communal captivity on an unsuspecting population. Nominated for the Nebula Award, All Flesh Is Grass is a riveting masterwork that brilliantly reinvents the alien invasion story.
