Book Synopsis The Commentaries of Living Immortals by : Martin K. Ettington
Download or read book The Commentaries of Living Immortals written by Martin K. Ettington and published by Martin K. Ettington. This book was released on with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about living immortals in their own words. People who are hundreds if not thousands of years old and living in our world today. Their commentaries come from a discussion board I have been using for a couple of years to market my earlier book: Physical Immortality: A History and How to Guide There are over twelve distinct immortal personalities who posted on this board and they all have different perspectives on their lives as immortals. One of the main characters on the site said this about the immortals: “I have met over 170 other immortals dating from 20,000 years old to 110 years old, from around Earth. Gods are in another league. I have met 15 Gods/Godesses …. most are norce/celtic Gods.” “There is at least 2000 of us out of your 7billion humans doing the exact same as me ie jobs/names some still hide in mountans and forests.” Do I believe all of this? I do have some skepticism, but even if it’s not true it is a great story. If true—it is one of the greatest revelations of all time

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The story of modern medicine and bioethics—and, indeed, race relations—is refracted beautifully, and movingly.”—Entertainment Weekly NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE FROM HBO® STARRING OPRAH WINFREY AND ROSE BYRNE • ONE OF THE “MOST INFLUENTIAL” (CNN), “DEFINING” (LITHUB), AND “BEST” (THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER) BOOKS OF THE DECADE • ONE OF ESSENCE’S 50 MOST IMPACTFUL BLACK BOOKS OF THE PAST 50 YEARS • WINNER OF THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE HEARTLAND PRIZE FOR NONFICTION NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • Entertainment Weekly • O: The Oprah Magazine • NPR • Financial Times • New York • Independent (U.K.) • Times (U.K.) • Publishers Weekly • Library Journal • Kirkus Reviews • Booklist • Globe and Mail Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. She was a poor Southern tobacco farmer who worked the same land as her slave ancestors, yet her cells—taken without her knowledge—became one of the most important tools in medicine: The first “immortal” human cells grown in culture, which are still alive today, though she has been dead for more than sixty years. HeLa cells were vital for developing the polio vaccine; uncovered secrets of cancer, viruses, and the atom bomb’s effects; helped lead to important advances like in vitro fertilization, cloning, and gene mapping; and have been bought and sold by the billions. Yet Henrietta Lacks remains virtually unknown, buried in an unmarked grave. Henrietta’s family did not learn of her “immortality” until more than twenty years after her death, when scientists investigating HeLa began using her husband and children in research without informed consent. And though the cells had launched a multimillion-dollar industry that sells human biological materials, her family never saw any of the profits. As Rebecca Skloot so brilliantly shows, the story of the Lacks family—past and present—is inextricably connected to the dark history of experimentation on African Americans, the birth of bioethics, and the legal battles over whether we control the stuff we are made of. Over the decade it took to uncover this story, Rebecca became enmeshed in the lives of the Lacks family—especially Henrietta’s daughter Deborah. Deborah was consumed with questions: Had scientists cloned her mother? Had they killed her to harvest her cells? And if her mother was so important to medicine, why couldn’t her children afford health insurance? Intimate in feeling, astonishing in scope, and impossible to put down, The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks captures the beauty and drama of scientific discovery, as well as its human consequences.
Book Synopsis The Immortals of Tehran by : Ali Araghi
Download or read book The Immortals of Tehran written by Ali Araghi and published by Melville House. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A highly recommended literary page-turner worth a second reading; fans of Gabriel García Márquez will delight in this fantastical—and fantastic novel.”—Library Journal, starred review "Impactful . . . Araghi’s skillful combination of revolutionary politics and magical realism will please fans of Alejo Carpentier."—Publishers Weekly A sweeping, multigenerational epic, this stunning debut heralds the arrival of a unique new literary voice. As a child living in his family's apple orchard, Ahmad Torkash-Vand treasures his great-great-great-great grandfather's every mesmerizing word. On the day of his father's death, Ahmad listens closely as the seemingly immortal elder tells him the tale of a centuries-old family curse . . . and the boy's own fated role in the story. Ahmad grows up to suspect that something must be interfering with his family, as he struggles to hold them together through decades of famine, loss, and political turmoil in Iran. As the world transforms around him, each turn of Ahmad's life is a surprise: from street brawler, to father of two unusually gifted daughters; from radical poet, to politician with a target on his back. These lives, and the many unforgettable stories alongside his, converge and catch fire at the center of the Revolution. Exploring the brutality of history while conjuring the astonishment of magical realism, The Immortals of Tehran is a novel about the incantatory power of words and the revolutionary sparks of love, family, and poetry--set against the indifferent, relentless march of time.

Book Synopsis The Primeval Flood Catastrophe by : Y. S. Chen
Download or read book The Primeval Flood Catastrophe written by Y. S. Chen and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-12-12 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous research on Mesopotamian Flood traditions tended to focus on a few textual sources. How the traditions originated and developed as a whole has not been seriously investigated. By systematically examining a large body of relevant cuneiform sources of diverse genres from the Early Dynastic III period (ca. 2600-2350 B.C.) to the end of the first millennium B.C., this book observes that it is during the Old Babylonian period (ca. 2000-1600) and classical attestations of the Flood traditions are found. On linguistic, conceptual and literary-historical grounds, the book argues that the Flood traditions emerged relatively late in Sumerian traditions. It traces different evolutionary stages of the Flood traditions, from the emergence of the Flood motif within the socio-political and cultural contexts of the early Isin dynasty (ca. 2017-1896 B.C.), to the diverse mythological representations of the motif in literary traditions, to the historicisation of the motif in chronography, and finally to the interactions between various strands of the Flood traditions and other Mesopotamian literary traditions, such as Sumerian and Babylonian compositions about Gilgames. By uncovering the processes through which the Flood traditions were constructed, the book offers a valuable case study on the complex and dynamic relationship between myth-making, the development of literature, the rise of historical consciousness and historiography, and socio-political circumstances in the ancient world. The origins and development of the Flood traditions examined in the book, furthermore, represent one of the best documented examples illustrating the continuities and changes in Mesopotamian intellectual, linguistic, literary, socio-political and religious history over the course of two and a half millennia.

Download or read book Immortals written by Duane L. Martin and published by Duane L. Martin. This book was released on 2014-02-08 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a mysterious woman showed up at their door after their party guests had all gone home for the evening, no one had any idea who she was. She was young, beautiful, well-dressed, and up to now, had been barred from having any personal contact with them, so it was only natural that they didn’t recognize her. You could have heard a pin drop when she introduced herself as Jan Brewster, the rep who’d been taking care of them behind the scenes from the very beginning. Not only was she finally allowed to make personal contact with them, but the backers had been so impressed by their selfless actions in freeing slaves from the Faranox dimension, that she was granted permission to offer them a very special gift. The serum she carried with her when she arrived granted them not only immortality, but everlasting youth, total recall, rapid healing, enhanced senses, and superior physical abilities. Once the serum takes full effect, the first order of business is to finish training the new recruits, so they can be sent out on some training runs to other dimensions, both known, and unknown. Unfortunately, while out on a training run with Brian, Jarrod runs into a situation that will put their newly granted immortality to the test, and his very survival hangs in the balance. Old enemies return, new discoveries are made, and in the end, they discover that their lives are about to change in ways that they never could have imagined. Immortals is the 5th book of the Unseen Things series.
Book Synopsis Teachings of the Immortals by : Mikal Nyght
Download or read book Teachings of the Immortals written by Mikal Nyght and published by . This book was released on 2013-02-27 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So... you want to live forever? This book can show you how! It was 1994 when we went to see Interview With the Vampire, which turned out to be a major catalyst in my life, awakening the awareness that I was a mortal who was going to die if I didn't do something. But what to do? While I would love to say I went looking for Lestat & found him, that would be a pleasant fantasy. What I did was to open to the realm of all possibility, asking questions which are crucial to any spiritual journey. It begins with "Who are you?" It's impossible to describe the spiritual longing I experienced as the deeper insights from Interview With the Vampire began to haunt me. It wasn't an obsession with the movie. It was an inescapable fascination with the darker truths which forced me to question the very reality in which I lived, until I eventually came to see that the world is nothing like we've been taught to believe. Believe what you will. Tell yourself this is all only a writer's fantasy if it will make you sleep better. The simple truth is that we began to receive letters on the computer in my home. Letters from an immortal. The letters were not just beautiful seductions. They were teachings, outlining a systematic undoing of the belief systems which hold us prisoner to the consensual mortal world - the dayshine world. Over a period of years, we were instructed via these letters as well as through gnosis-channelings. What we were being taught was the process of evolution from mortal to immortal, the transmogrification of human to other-than-human. Our own mind creates reality, but the hardest part is undoing the programming that tells us we are impotent children in meat suits at the whim of some cloud-bound deity.The hardest part is giving ourselves permission to explore outside of the matrix, past the confines of Plato's cave. What we were being taught, ultimately, was how to nurture, create, & manifest our immortal twin, the eternal other, the shaman's double. There are dozens of names for it, but it all comes down to this: we have within ourselves the ability to be anything we choose - including immortal, eternal & infinite. This revised second edition includes excerpts from The Darker Teachings, which pick up where The Matrix leaves off. Intense instruction from the author assists the seeker in transcending the limitations which are really only obstacles in the mind. You are becoming YOURSELF! You are taking upon yourself the power to Be the immortal spirit which has been whispering in your ear for longer than you can remember. TWO REVIEWS FROM THE FIRST EDITION 5.0 out of 5 stars Where the night never ends., April 15, 2012 By Donald Anderson (SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, US) This book can be very informative to some and nothing but babble to the closed minded. To venture outside of the box is always full of new situations to look at. To keep one's self open is to explore where the "program" won't affect you. Have you ever felt as if you did not belong? Read this book and open to it's message. * 5.0 out of 5 stars My book of life., October 15, 2011 By Sam Bleuel (Rio Rancho, New Mexico) This is the best book I've EVER read! I'm not much of a reader, but I bought the kindle edition of this and couldn't be happier. Though some of what it says I've thought myself, it contains a lot of interesting, new, and useful information. It's scary how true this book is, most people could not fathom it. Basically, I live by this book. It explains my thinking in every way possible and more. I've suggested this book to SO many people! I also love that on the actual site of this book, you can talk to the author and ask questions. He is very intelligent and knowledgeable. Anything is possible, we hold ourselves back from living/evolving to our true potential. That's something to remember! This book is the best of its kind and the most realistic.

Download or read book Immortal Jaguar written by Hugh Fox and published by Skylight Press. This book was released on 2011 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immortal Jaguar is Hugh Fox's account of his experiences with the inner worlds and ancient powers unleashed by his use of traditional South American spiritual hallucinogenics. After consuming psychoactive plants in Peru he is gripped by visionary experiences and finds the dazzling magical world of the Immortals opening up, a whirl of ancient knowledge pouring through his consciousness. On his return to academic life in the US he finds that having a shamanic gift which he is unable to switch off is something of a dangerous liability. Part memoir, part archaeology, this fusion of visions and ideas into fictional narrative is among the most excitingly readable presentations of the spiritual underworld of the Andes and its expression through sacred hallucinogens. The vision extends outward across the ancient world through language and legend, all leading to a voyage to the house of the Sun-King - Tiawanaku in Bolivia. Fox, a major authority on the Pre-Columbian Americas, and a true visionary to boot, makes a compelling case for the connection of disparate myths and cultures around the world in deepest antiquity.
Download or read book Ethos written by Aaron Dworkin and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A science-fiction thriller set in Flint, Michigan, 500 years in the future, where humans can choose to die a natural death—or live forever. David is a forty-eight-year-old divorced accountant from Flint, Michigan, who finds himself drawn suddenly and without warning through the use of a virtual reality game into a world five hundred years in the future: the Planet Ethos. Flint, Michigan, still exists on Ethos, but it is a city rocked by colliding and seemingly contradictory forces. Advanced biotechnology coexists with avian species that have devolved to resemble ancient pterodactyls. Human beings are racially and religiously tolerant as never before, yet they've organized themselves along a tribal division between the Immortals and the Bereft. And Flint and Detroit are locked in a dangerous, violent conflict—a war that could annihilate the human race or secure lasting peace for the first time in history. Along with his adopted teenage son, Malcolm, David learns that on Ethos, humans have evolved the genetic capacity for immortality, a trait they earn by discovering their purpose in life, or their ethos. Does David, a consummate drifter, have such an ethos? Will he fight on the side of the Immortals, or join the Bereft, a group of humans who age and die naturally and eschew the idea that life has a singular, unchanging purpose? Join David and Malcolm in their struggle for meaning and their battle for the future of the human race itself.
Book Synopsis Immortal: Last Call by : Gene Doucette
Download or read book Immortal: Last Call written by Gene Doucette and published by Gene Doucette. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I’m something like sixty-thousand years old, and I’ve probably thought more about my own death than any living being has thought about any subject, ever. I used to be unduly preoccupied with what might constitute a “good death”, although interestingly, this has always been an after-the-fact analysis. What I mean is, following a near-death experience, I’ll generally perform a quiet review of the circumstances and judge whether that death would have been objectively good, by whatever metric one uses for that kind of thing. I’m not nearly that self-reflective while in the midst of said near-death experience. Facing death, the predominant thought is always not like this.” A disease threatening the lives of everyone—human and non-human—has been loosed upon the world, by an arch-enemy Adam didn’t even know he had. That’s just the first of his problems. Adam’s also in jail, facing multiple counts of murder, at least a few of which are accurate. He may never see the inside of a courtroom, because there remains a bounty on his head—put there by the aforementioned arch-enemy—that someone is bound to try to collect while he’s stuck behind bars. Meanwhile, Adam’s sitting on some tantalizing evidence that there might be a cure, but to find it, he’s going to have to get out of jail, get out of the country, and track down the man responsible. He can’t do any of that alone, but he also can’t rely on any of his non-human friends for help, not when they’re all getting sick. What he needs is a particularly gifted human, who can do things no other human is capable of. He knows one such person. He calls himself a fixer, and he’s Adam’s—and possibly the world’s—last hope. That’s provided he believes any of it. Immortal: Last Call is the sixth book in the Immortal Novel Series, and also the end of a long journey for one immortal man.
