Book excerpt: Will your chosen world be one chosen without your consent? The current & alternate futures described in this book include those of a world of "secure freedoms" which the UN SC's Consultancy Committee has chosen for us, with our passive consent, complicity, or fear of rendition and torture via Dershowitz Certificates [Torture Warrants] From the smoking landscape of Israel-Palestine, a New Israel has relocated, WMD & all, to a territory in Canada comprising most of Alberta, Saskatchewan, & Manitoba. Recalcitrant Reservations Natives who refuse resettlement offers and a new Occupation are classified as Palestine-like Terrorists - with dire consequences. Diana and Dodi Fayad's murders are shown as the context for the UK Establishment's staunchly anti-Islamic policies and eventual destruction of Iraq with the Crusader alliance led by the US, UK & Australia, guided by the Neo-Cons. The locales are Canada & the Middle East, today & explores a time when Toronto has become a province, while its 200-storey towers at Jane-Finch, & other towering edifi ces of institutional inequality comprised of a city block are now mini-cities. The Jane-Finch mini-city inhabitants are classifi ed as low economic value denizens'. Better off Citizens' occupy numerous, semiautonomous, 200 to 300 story edifi ces - also mini-cities - at Bay-King, Rosedale, Thornhill. PharmaCorps occupying a few city blocks are special corporate Mini-Cities, whose employees are integrated into the giant, sky-scraper condos on site,. These corporate mini-cities have the legal power to make laws and regulations outside of the now debased "Charter Of Rights and Secure Freedoms' for Persons including Corporations and Organizations." Each chapter of CHOSEN WORLD deals with possible alternative futures or comments on dramatic recent events such Challenger ́s role in the weaponization of space by the US and its major ally. Several chapters deal with the dilemma of a future Pope who has to vote for or against a Christian and Jewish war against Islam and the forced rewriting and re-interpretation of the Q ́uran by Christians and Zionists. He dreads the consequences. During this time he is being blackmailed by a group that wants to direct his decision. CHOSEN WORLD will challenge your world view. Book Reviews "The premis of "Chosen World" is that we all live in a world that is chosen, either by ourselves or by someone else. Which world do I choose to live in and how can I live in it when others are choosing a world other than what I'm choosing? The importance of recognising the other "choosers" and their right to make their choices AND my right to make my choices and to live by them is paramount. RESPECT of each other and Non interferance with others even when they choose to live differently from us are key factors in getting along in this world. I found the book challenging and insightful. It's not bed time reading for me but I highly recommend it to those who want to be enlightened about what's going on in our world and who's making the choices that impact your life." ---Jake Schmidt, Therapist / Counsellor, Keystone Counselling Associates "This is not an easy book to read. Like the incredibly popular Da Vinci Code, this book weaves fact, fiction and speculation. And at first this, along with the mixing of different fonts, it is a little jarring. But what really makes the book not so easy to read is the demand it places on you to not take for granted that power is being exercised by our culture, by our country and by other entities and forces who would want to make choices for us. Once you get over the inclination to stop and search out each movement of the story in order to validate and explore it, you let the story unfold and simply let it inspire you to take your place in this world with a little more seriousness, sobriety and resolve.

Book Synopsis Pricking the Vessels by : Henry McCann
Download or read book Pricking the Vessels written by Henry McCann and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2014-02-21 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first text on bloodletting therapy for Western practitioners of Chinese medicine, this authoritative text explores the theory and function of bloodletting, and provides detailed instruction on its clinical use. Bloodletting therapy, which works to remove internal and external disruptions to the system through the withdrawal of small quantities of blood, has numerous benefits, especially concerning the treatment of complex or chronic disease. Yet the technique is often met with alarm in the West and side-lined in favour of less controversial treatments such as fine-needle acupuncture, and moxibustion. This book provides a concise overview of its theory, historical and contemporary relevance, and clinical guidance. With detailed reference to the classic texts, the author clarifies the fundamental Chinese medical theory related to blood and the network vessels, and provides an in-depth discussion of the benefits of and practice guidelines for bloodletting. The book includes a chapter on the classical acupuncture techniques of Tung Ching Chang whose work is attracting increasing attention in the West. Through the exploration of classic texts and contemporary standards, the book provides everything needed to gain a comprehensive understanding of the technique and to encourage its use as a viable treatment option in the West. It will be an invaluable addition to the resources available for acupuncturists, as well as students and practitioners of Chinese medicine more generally, including those interested in all Chinese approaches to health.

Book Synopsis Celebrating 5 Years of Avian Physiology in Frontiers in Physiology by : Colin G. Scanes
Download or read book Celebrating 5 Years of Avian Physiology in Frontiers in Physiology written by Colin G. Scanes and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The avian physiology section is now five years old. This special e-book is to commemorate this event. For this highlights issue celebrating the first five years of the Avian Physiology section, it was decided to focus on the top papers/reviews published. Table 1 lists the top fifteen papers/reviews based on either views or down-loads as a pdf. There is some agreement between the two lists. What is compelling is that of the top papers, all except one encompasses research conducted in domesticated birds, predominantly with chickens with one focused on turkeys. It is perhaps not unexpected that research on chickens dominates the top papers because of the following: - Chickens are commercially important being the number one meat animal globally. - Chickens are used as the model species for birds. Other possibilities that could be the case include the following: - There are more researchers working on chickens compared to other commercial or wild species. - There are other avenues to publish wild bird research. - Lack of funding for open access article processing charges. The exceptions to the chicken papers/reviews is a paper on a passerine bird, the migratory blackheaded bunting (Emberiza melanocephala) (Singh et al., 2018) and a review paper focused on turkey satellite cell proliferation and differentiation (Velleman and Song, 2017). Of the top papers/reviews, six were related to muscle physiology (Bottje et al., 2017; Greene et al., 2019; Lassiter et al., 2019; Lin et al., 2017; Piekarski et al., 2020; Velleman and Song, 2017). These papers address different aspects of the physiology of muscle functioning and development in chickens or turkeys, specifically the following: - Small RNAs from the transcribed from mitochondrial genome in muscle (Bottje et al., 2017) - Leptin induced autophagy of muscle cells (Piekarski et al., 2020) - Proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts: influence of syndecan-4 and glypican-1 (Velleman and Song, 2017) - Myostatin signaling and muscle growth (Lassiter et al., 2019) The role of growth factors and signal transduction pathways in myoblast proliferation (Lin et al., 2017) - Muscle pathology, specifically, woody breast myopathy (Greene et al., 2019) There are also among the top papers/reviews on multiple diverse other organs and systems namely the following: adipose tissue (Abdalla et al., 2018), bone (Adhikari et al., 2019), feathering (Chen et al., 2019), gastro-intestinal functioning/microbiome (Li et al., 2018; Kraimi et al., 2018; Rodrigues et al., 2020), immune functioning (Bi et al., 2018; Wei et al., 2018), kidneys (Li et al., 2018), liver (Flees et al., 2017; Singh et al., 2018), endogenous opioids (Scanes and Pierzchala-Koziec, 2018), photoperiodism (Hanlon et al., 2020), pituitary gland (Zhang et al., 2021) and reproduction (Eusemann et al., 2018; Li et al., 2018). The geographical distribution of the top papers is interesting as summarized in Table 2. The United States of America and the People’s Republic of China were the country of origin of most of the papers. In addition, there were papers/reviews from Europe (France, Germany and a collaborative paper between researchers in the USA and Poland) and India. Of the top papers/reviews from the USA, six come from a single department, namely, the Department of Poultry Science/Center of Excellence for Poultry Science, University of Arkansas (Bottje et al., 2017; Flees et al., 2017; Green et al., 2019; Lassiter et al., 2019; Piekarski et al., 2020; Rodrigues
Book Synopsis Holy Warriors by : Richard W. Kaeuper
Download or read book Holy Warriors written by Richard W. Kaeuper and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-06-04 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The medieval code of chivalry demanded that warrior elites demonstrate fierce courage in battle, display prowess with weaponry, and avenge any strike against their honor. They were also required to be devout Christians. How, then, could knights pledge fealty to the Prince of Peace, who enjoined the faithful to turn the other cheek rather than seek vengeance and who taught that the meek, rather than glorious fighters in tournaments, shall inherit the earth? By what logic and language was knighthood valorized? In Holy Warriors, Richard Kaeuper argues that while some clerics sanctified violence in defense of the Holy Church, others were sorely troubled by chivalric practices in everyday life. As elite laity, knights had theological ideas of their own. Soundly pious yet independent, knights proclaimed the validity of their bloody profession by selectively appropriating religious ideals. Their ideology emphasized meritorious suffering on campaign and in battle even as their violence enriched them and established their dominance. In a world of divinely ordained social orders, theirs was blessed, though many sensitive souls worried about the ultimate price of rapine and destruction. Kaeuper examines how these paradoxical chivalric ideals were spread in a vast corpus of literature from exempla and chansons de geste to romance. Through these works, both clerics and lay military elites claimed God's blessing for knighthood while avoiding the contradictions inherent in their fusion of chivalry with a religion that looked back to the Sermon on the Mount for its ethical foundation.
Book Synopsis The Placebo Effect And Health by : W. Grant Thompson
Download or read book The Placebo Effect And Health written by W. Grant Thompson and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the days when doctors routinely made house calls and sat by the bedside offering comforting words along with medical care, the doctor-patient relationship has become increasingly impersonal and superficial. As medical technology and treatment have improved, and time constraints have become more demanding, the beneficial effects of meaningful doctor-patient interactions have too often been overlooked. Nonetheless, objective clinical trials have repeatedly shown that real, measurable benefits to the patient occur through the "placebo effect," the positive effects of the doctor''s presence and personality plus the patient''s belief in the efficacy of the treatment.Dr. W. Grant Thompson, a frequent consultant on the design of clinical trials, reviews the history of the placebo effect and the evidence of its benefits to health in this lively, informative, and scientifically rigorous book. He looks at both the planned use of placebos in blind clinical trials and the unplanned placebo effects arising out of the doctor-patient relationship, the passage of time, and the perceptions of the patient. Dr. Thompson emphasizes that placebos in themselves have no intrinsic benefit; what matters is how the treatment is provided and under what circumstances. He argues that understanding the placebo effect is important for the care of the ill, the design of clinical trials, and healthcare policy planning. He contends that we should be using judiciously the best medical evidence, but even that can be undermined by insensitive delivery. Healthcare policy can only gain from taking both vital components of medical care into consideration.Praised by the New England Journal of Medicine as "a gifted teacher and clinician with a talent for clear exposition," Dr. Thompson has written an important, accessible, and interesting work that deepens our understanding of both the tangible and intangible factors that affect health. He convincingly demonstrates that patients need the best that science has to offer combined with kind and compassionate caregiving by doctors in order for a treatment to be its most effective.
Book Synopsis The Decline of Therapeutic Bloodletting and the Collapse of Traditional Medicine by : K. Codell Carter
Download or read book The Decline of Therapeutic Bloodletting and the Collapse of Traditional Medicine written by K. Codell Carter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of a single generation, without significant discussion or debate, a key practice of traditional medicine was almost completely abandoned in mid-nineteenth-century Europe. K. Codell Carter's book describes how and why bloodletting was abandoned, noting that it was part of a process in which innovation was required so that modern scientific medicine could begin. This book is a masterful study on the collapse of a traditional medical practice. Bloodletting had been a prominent medical therapy in early nineteenth-century Europe and can be traced back to Greek and Roman physicians. The Hippocratic corpus contains several discussions of bloodletting. Galen, the most famous physician in classical antiquity, wrote tracts explaining and defending the practice. It was employed in ancient Egypt and is the most commonly mentioned therapy in the Babylonian Talmud. Indeed, it was practiced in virtually every part of the ancient world. Even though the practice abruptly ceased, there was little argument against it or reason to believe it ineffective. In reality, bloodletting actually worked. However, the rise of modern medicine required not just a change in how disease and causation were conceived, but also a change in the role of medicine in society. It has been claimed that the collapse of traditional medicine was a precondition for the rise of modern medicine, but there has been little support for this assertion before now. Carter provides this missing support. The result is a fascinating study in the history of medical practice and social expectations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the annals of time, intelligent design has had His hand in producing millions upon billions of souls. For the sake of propagating our species we have been designed in His image. Our divine Maker in all of His glory intended on giving us a fighting chance of survival. The right to exist. In this enterprise we call life, there are absolutely zero guarantees. Every now and again, He would produce a Mary Magdalene, a Joan of Arc, a mother Teresa, or Golda Meir. Aside from giving us His very own Son, every once in several millennium he would create a soul, nearly as perfect as his own. Such a soul is a reflection of His perfect love. A love with an incarnate heart which is as unconditional, undying and as selfless as our divine Maker’s. At this moment, a choir of Archangels would sing out in a glorious celestial chorus. On these rare occasions, He would have smiled with a twinkle in His eye. The creation of yet another miraculous masterpiece.
