Book Description
Flower essences, essentially homeopathic liquids, are widely available in all health food stores, many gift shops, some food chain stores, and chain pharmacies. They are increasingly popular with the millions of people who are turning to alternative healing solutions, especially those that offer a measure of individual control. Some of the essences are mass manufactured, while others are manufactured from Mom & Pop shops, such as the one Rhonda PallasDowney runs with her husband. PallasDowney, a traditionally trained homeopath and the author of The Complete Book of Flower Essences, has made it her life's work not only to treat people, but also to teach them to take charge of their own healing and wellness. Voices of Flowers teaches readers to: * Discern their own needs for healing, based on the chakra energy system * Immediately begin working with the flower cards to learn the characteristic essence of each of the 48 flowers to bring wellness into their lives * Continue learning through both theory and practice by reading the book and engaging in daily practices that reveal ever more about an essence and its curative powers "Voices of Flowers is a jewel and reflects Rhonda's deep passion and connection with the plant world." --from the foreword by Rosemary Gladstar Voices of Flowers helps readers listen to the flower --what does this color, this bloom, this essence speak to? Each flower offers a message to the reader. How is this connected to your life and what can you learn from it? Plus there are suggestions for contemplation and affirmations to further develop the true voice of the flowers that are calling you.

Book Description
Behind the bars on her window, Rosa Maria dreams of sunshine, love, calm, and leaving the city where she lives with her family. She suffers her father's beatings, hides her femininity behind shapeless clothing, and pines for the beautiful Jason as she awaits her opportunity to flee. Meanwhile, her older brother is found dead in a nearby parking lot, and the neighborhood explodes in a riot against the police. Rosa Maria resolves to act before she is devoured by family intrigues and despair. Wilfried N'Sondé's powerful voice creates a palpable sense of the absence of hope and the social and racial isolation that pervade the Paris projects, even as he never abandons the expansive capacity of individuals to dream of better lives beyond a seemingly hopeless reality.

Pages : 281
Book Description
This "utterly spectacular" book weighs the impact modern medical technology has had on the author's life against the social and environmental costs inevitably incurred by the mining that makes such innovation possible (Rachel Louise Snyder, author of No Visible Bruises). What if a lifesaving medical device causes loss of life along its supply chain? That's the question Katherine E. Standefer finds herself asking one night after being suddenly shocked by her implanted cardiac defibrillator. In this gripping, intimate memoir about health, illness, and the invisible reverberating effects of our medical system, Standefer recounts the astonishing true story of the rare diagnosis that upended her rugged life in the mountains of Wyoming and sent her tumbling into a fraught maze of cardiology units, dramatic surgeries, and slow, painful recoveries. As her life increasingly comes to revolve around the internal defibrillator freshly wired into her heart, she becomes consumed with questions about the supply chain that allows such an ostensibly miraculous device to exist. So she sets out to trace its materials back to their roots. From the sterile labs of a medical device manufacturer in southern California to the tantalum and tin mines seized by armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo to a nickel and cobalt mine carved out of endemic Madagascar jungle, Lightning Flowers takes us on a global reckoning with the social and environmental costs of a technology that promises to be lifesaving but is, in fact, much more complicated. Deeply personal and sharply reported, Lightning Flowers takes a hard look at technological mythos, healthcare, and our cultural relationship to medical technology, raising important questions about our obligations to one another, and the cost of saving one life.

Excerpt from The Voice of Flowers Poor erring ones, thou e'er didst leave undone What 't was the duty of thy life to do, Haste, and repent thee for the time is short The Spoiler cometh! Drooping on the stem, Methought it meekly folded its faint leaves For the last, voiceless prayer; while unto me A gush of fragrance was its benison.
