I first read the book “Stranger Than Science” By Frank Edwards when I was about 10 years old and it was an important turning point in my life. The book has many stories of strange events and it really built my curiosity about the world. Later I went to Engineering School and also had many paranormal experiences from learning meditation and other practices. I have now researched and written over 100 books on strange and mysterious phenomena. My fascination with strange things has become a major passion in my life. This book is kind of an updated version of that famous Frank Edwards book based on my experiences and research of many phenomena. I’m sure you will find the stories in this book fascinating since they are all samples of much of what I experienced, researched, and have written about. It contains over 32 chapters of my favorite stories on various topics to provide a question mark for your beliefs and assumptions about the world and universe we live in. When you finish this volume maybe you will see my point of view which is that as much as we think we know about this world and the universe, there are still many mysteries and strange things out there.
The concept of Infinity has been around since the ancients and it has many practical applications in mathematics like Calculus. Infinity is also important in Fractals which are a graphical algorithm which is used in many computer graphics applications today and which has infinite depth. It is also applicable to our Universe since the standard concept we are taught about the Big Bang as the beginning of the Universe may be wrong. Modern evidence is showing us contradictions which say that we live in a Universe which is steady state and might even be infinite in size. The Universe doesn’t have a creation date we can be sure of. We don’t really know if it is infinite in size but the Universe is certainly much larger and older than our best scientific instruments can measure. This book is an exploration of Infinity and new understandings of our Universe which have come to light in recent decades.
The National Book Award Finalist and New York Times bestseller that became a guide and balm for a country struggling to understand the election of Donald Trump "A generous but disconcerting look at the Tea Party. . . . This is a smart, respectful and compelling book." —Jason DeParle, The New York Times Book Review When Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential election, a bewildered nation turned to Strangers in Their Own Land to understand what Trump voters were thinking when they cast their ballots. Arlie Hochschild, one of the most influential sociologists of her generation, had spent the preceding five years immersed in the community around Lake Charles, Louisiana, a Tea Party stronghold. As Jedediah Purdy put it in the New Republic, "Hochschild is fascinated by how people make sense of their lives. . . . [Her] attentive, detailed portraits . . . reveal a gulf between Hochchild's 'strangers in their own land' and a new elite." Already a favorite common read book in communities and on campuses across the country and called "humble and important" by David Brooks and "masterly" by Atul Gawande, Hochschild's book has been lauded by Noam Chomsky, New Orleans mayor Mitch Landrieu, and countless others. The paperback edition features a new afterword by the author reflecting on the election of Donald Trump and the other events that have unfolded both in Louisiana and around the country since the hardcover edition was published, and also includes a readers' group guide at the back of the book.
In today’s world we live in a culture of truth suppression. This is true in representative democracies like the United States as well as full totalitarian dictatorships like Communist China. This book covers many areas of major lies like Global Warming, perverted doctrines taught in schools, Politics, News Suppression, Communist China, limitations in Spirituality, deficit spending, and problems with globalism. There are many different types of truth suppression and as much as we would like to think that we live in an advanced culture and world, this effort by different entities to suppress truth affects our lives negatively in many ways. The most direct effect is that we live in fear of the future of our world which is a big lie. This suppression also keeps us from fully realizing our spiritual natures and that we do have the ability to accomplish amazing things when we live with full honesty in our lives. I believe that individuals are closest to a state of happiness when they live their lives in truth. (See my book “A New Paradigm of Truth and Happiness” for more information.) There are actions we can take to correct this situation but they are mass actions which need many persons involved to have a real effect. A list of these actions are given later in this book.
National Parks here and abroad have an unusual number of strange, scary, and weird activities going on. It may be because these areas cover some of the most hidden and still natural and undisturbed locations in the world. These parks offer undisturbed areas where man does not intrude normally, and many activities can be hidden there. The stories in this book are mostly by Park Rangers who spent years in the outback of these parks and tell of their unusual and sometimes very scary experiences. I’ve divided up these stories mainly by types like missing persons, Bigfoot sightings, Aliens and UFOs, and more. Some experiences are so weird or unusual they were hard to categorize so they are in the chapter titled “Random Stories”. From my own experiences camping the wilderness I know that you need to be prepared for the unexpected. All of these stories were reported as true-but who is to say what the real truth is?
Shapeshifting has a history of occurring all over the world. From American Indians to Slavs in Europe, shapeshifters are part of our world history. In this book we explore what shapeshifting is, it’s history, types of shapeshifters, and regions around the world where it has been reported. We also review practices and exercises to allow the individual to shapeshift themselves to some type of animal. What was Carlos Castenada’s involvement with shapeshifting? And how is the Greek God Proteus related to this topic? And what is the difference between a skin walker and a vampire? Lots of these issues are addressed here and I hope you enjoy the journey.
This book is about legends of the Hollow Earth and other underground cities and civilizations which might all be related. The concept of there being a hollow Earth or inner area of the Earth where people have lived and do still exist has been around for hundreds of years. Other stories and legends of underground cities are also discussed to show that there are many stories of people and other beings living underground in our past and maybe up until the present era. Usually there is some fact as the basis for legends so all these stories make we wonder if there is some reality about civilizations existing underground on this Earth. These legends are geographically diverse and from different cultures so maybe there is something to them. Near the end of the book I include some incredible science data about life actually existing miles under our Earth and an example of a real underground city we know about and have visited.
We live surrounded by an invisible world which affects our lives in many ways. In this book we will take a journey from barely visible life, to cells, their structures, molecules, atoms, fundamental particles and even smaller. We will explore not just the facts about this small world, but also try to unearth interesting facts to ponder too. For example, what did paranormal investigators believe about the structure of atoms over one hundred years ago? And what particles or forces might be smaller than the standard building block particles we know about today? Also, what are the limitations of the standard model of subatomic particles? There are many things in the microscopic world which you might not expect. The journey from the small to the infinitely small starts here.
As an engineer and student of science I try to keep up with publications of the latest discoveries and paradigm shifts in science around the world. I believe that there are several big problems with science today. First is that much science is biased which might be because some scientists want to keep their point of view prominent and the others because many focuses of science are supported by biased funding. This will be discussed in this book. The other issue is that many scientists limit their thinking to only support age old paradigms and refuse to accept changes to their theories or throw out evidence because it doesn’t conform their current beliefs. In this book we will cover many issues such as the belief among many cosmologists that the Big Bang never happened. We will also look at ideas we thought settled but which have lots of contrary evidence and anecdotal counter stories such as time travel and dimensional crossings. After you read this book you may question much of what is commonly accepted by scientists in the world today.
This book is about communities and cities around the world where people live to very old ages. It is divided into two groups. Those communities who have the longest lived peoples in the world. Lots of lifestyle and diet data is included for them. The second group are another set of communities which have high average ages which people live to but are not quite the outliers that the first group is. I’ve also tried to provide some general lifestyle and diet guidelines to give an idea of why these places are different for longevity purposes. The first four communities were also profiled in my book “Diets and Lifestyles of the World's Oldest Peoples & 32 Longevity Recipes” which goes into lot of details about these four locations including traditional recipes. Overall, I think you will get a better idea of what the reasons are why people live a long time in these locations around the world which may give you ideas about adapting your lifestyle and diets to have maximum longevity.
