Stephen Hawking

The Grand Design.

When and how did the universe begin? Why are we here? What is the nature of reality? Is the apparent 'grand design' of our universe evidence for a benevolent creator who set things in motion? Or does science offer another explanation? In "The Grand Design", the most recent scientific thinking about the mysteries of the universe is presented, in language marked by both brilliance and simplicity. "The Grand Design" explains the latest thoughts about model-dependent realism (the idea that there is no one version of reality), and about the multiverse concept of reality in which there are many universes. There are new ideas about the top-down theory of cosmology (the idea that there is no one history of the universe, but that every possible history exists). It concludes with a riveting assessment of m-theory, and discusses whether it is the unified theory Einstein spent a lifetime searching for. This is the first major work in nearly a decade by one of the world's greatest thinkers. A succinct, startling and lavishly illustrated guide to discoveries that are altering our understanding and threatening some of our most cherished belief systems, "The Grand Design" is a book that will ...

Alaska: Saga of a Bold Land

The history of Alaska is filled with stories of new land and new riches -- and ever present are new people with competing views over how the valuable resources should be used: Russians exploiting a fur empire; explorers checking rival advances; prospectors stampeding to the clarion call of "Gold!"; soldiers battling out a decisive chapter in world war; oil wildcatters looking for a different kind of mineral wealth; and always at the core of these disputes is the question of how the land is to be used and by whom. While some want Alaska to remain static, others are in the vanguard of change. "Alaska: Saga of a Bold Land" shows that there are no easy answers on either side and that Alaska will always be crossing the next frontier.

Adventures Among Ants: A Global Safari with a Cast of Trillions

Mark Moffett has been described as 'the Jane Goodall of ants.' Certainly "Adventures among Ants," with its detailed account of his fieldwork, makes an invaluable contribution to our scientific knowledge of these creatures. But it does more. It is so well written and captures his excitement so wonderfully that it will bring this wealth of information to a far wider audience. I was fascinated by ants when I was a child--how I wish this book had been available to me then!"--Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, Founder, the Jane Goodall Institute, and UN Messenger of Peace "Mark Moffett is in the front rank of present-day explorer naturalists. He has been in many of the most remote parts of the world, and has thorough scientific knowledge of his subject. His photographs are superb, the best ever taken."--Edward O. Wilson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "The Future of Life and The Ants" "I love the book. Mark's excitement and joy will affect anyone willing to take a dive into a bizarre world. I will never intentionally step on another ant--perhaps out of a new love, respect or fear. The book truly grows on you rather then swarming up your leg."--Kary Mullis, Author of "Dancing Naked in the Mind ...

Dr. Dorin Dragos

Guerir l'Ame et le corps par les plantes. Phytotherapie psychocausale.

La maladie est un avertissement, nous signalant que nous violons l'harmonie universelle. Ce n'est pas une punition non meritee, mais la consequence de nos faits et attitudes. C'est le miroir de nos defauts. C'est notre erreur refletee vers nous-memes. C'est une confrontation avec nous-memes. Ce n'est pas un accident, fruit du hasard, ce n'est pas quelque chose d'etranger - au contraire, elle nous represente. La maladie nous pousse a nous rendre compte de nos imperfections. Ainsi la guerison n'est-elle pas possible qu'au moment ou nous devenons conscients de nos manques et nous nous mobilisons pour les eliminer. La maladie n'est pas notre ennemi, mais, paradoxalement, notre meilleur ami - c'est l'ami qui a le courage de nous dire franchement ou et comment nous faisons fausse route.
