Book Description
Nosike remembers the final years of his childhood and his adolescent years, and the conflicts and delights that marked his life at the time. The scope of his narration, through memory, takes us through the complexities of family, friendship, religious upbringing, dreams and conflicts, in the life of an adolescent, on such a pedestal that the topic becomes a consideration for people of all ages. It also shows the polaroid of the human experience and how our opinions on them are not final, and is transient when viewed through the lens of memory.

Book Description
The distance between natural foods and what the average American family puts on their dinner table grows wider every year. In Foodture We Trust, the author explores the role that politics and profit play in over-processing all nutritional value out of foods, turning the Creator's abundant, widely varied gift into an indigestible sludge that only marginally resembles the original design. Learn the history of the genetic engineering of food; misappropriation of scientific studies to support the profits of big business; the effort to convince the American public it needs drugs created for diseases that never existed before; and legislation aimed at outlawing natural foods, processes, and remedies for the sake of protecting profits. Gain a scientific understanding of the benefits of natural foods, and learn about evidence that the bureaucracy responsible for protecting the health and nutrition of Americans is dedicated to destroying them instead. For thirty years Heinz Gisel traveled the world innovating cutting-edge medical technology and providing doctors with new instruments to treat illness. As the CEO of medical laser companies, he learned that funding disease fighting technology was difficult, but not for devices used in elective procedures, plastic surgery, aesthetic treatments and vision correction. He observed that many people seeking such treatments would be better served rejuvenating from the cellular level, starting with nutrition. But most people had either forgotten how to balance their diet with lifestyle, or they didn't know to begin with. The author invested years into nutrition research and technology development for analyzing disease susceptibility of presumed healthy people. After opening clinics in various countries, it surfaced that many clients who thought to be healthy were at the brink of a major health challenge, which they could forestall by simple lifestyle modifications and by making conscientious food choices.

Book Description
Not for scholars, but for a new generation of readers unaware of Erasmuss unique genius. An innovative, ingenious update. Kirkus Reviews. Packards verse translation does what it sets out to do: enlivens what otherwise can be heavy going. Puckerbrush Review Astoundingly clever. The Classical Outlook By his own account, Desiderius Erasmus, a Dutch monk and scholar, wrote his 1509 Latin prose masterpiece, The Praise of Folly, in seven days, more or less while a guest at the London home of his friend and fellow humanist Sir Thomas More. Friends with whom Erasmus shared his manuscript arranged its publication in Paris in 1511 in an unauthorized edition. Erasmus, surprised but pleased by the immediate popularity of the work, revised it seven times, with thirty-six editions appearing during his lifetime. Folly on Folly presents this classic transcript of the goddess Follys lecture delivered in a university hall to an audience of scholars. A persona invented by Erasmus, the goddess Folly has chosen herself as her subject. Her incongruous costumea scholars robe with the belled hat of a jestersuggests (correctly) that her words will be a mix of the serious with the hilarious. Throughout the lecture, she makes her case that foolishness, not rational thought, benefits humankind morewith most of the human foibles she cites, whether secular or spiritual, remaining with us today. This version of The Praise of Folly, the first in verse, was written to commemorate the 500th anniversary of this enduring works creation.
