Book Description
Author Jim Geyer says he has two blessings in life. The first blessing was godly parents who daily instilled in him biblical and moral values by both word and example. The second blessing was being raised on a farm where he was taught informed by God's marvelous creation.Travel with Jim Geyer to a time when a man's word was his bond, when a handshake was all that was needed to consummate an agreement, a time when doors were seldom locked and windows were often open to catch the warm evening summer breeze. A time when growing up was a fun, carefree time.Consider today's culture and you immediately see a marked decline in the strength of families who each evening gather around the supper table. There is an observable decrease in honesty, integrity and accountability. Dad & Mom's Country Wisdom offers pleasant memories of your parents' childhood. This book will bless you with many Scriptures that have and still do relate to our daily experiences and challenges you in your personal, family and business life.

Author: Joan R. Callahan Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA ISBN: 0313385394 Category : Health & Fitness Languages : en Pages : 380
Book Description
This engaging, nontechnical book discusses 50 health scares that captured the public's attention before fading away, covering real and perceived health threats from long-ago eras to present times. Despite the benefits of advanced technology and modern safety mechanisms, the world around us seems to grow ever more dangerous and fraught with hidden risks. Even in the information age, it is challenging to discern factual, scientific information from sensationalized accounts in the media, "urban legends," or unsubstantiated Internet lore. In 50 Health Scares That Fizzled, award-winning author and researcher Joan R. Callahan examines 50 health scares in 7 distinct categories: medical interventions, infectious diseases, food scares, additives in foods or beverages, other biological hazards, chemical or radiological exposures, and lifestyle choices. With great wit and a light tone, Dr. Callahan alleviates readers' concerns and deftly explains the complex issues, making the subject matter approachable.
