Walking With Gorillas - Dr. Gladys Kalema Zikusoka - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

An Inspiring Memoir, for Fans of Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Frans De Waal. In her enchanting memoir, Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, Uganda’s first wildlife veterinarian, tells the remarkable story from her animal-loving childhood to her career protecting endangered mountain gorillas and other wild animals. She is also the defender of people as a groundbreaking promoter of human public health and an advocate for revolutionary integrated approaches to saving our planet. In an increasingly interconnected world, animal and human health alike depend on sustainable solutions and Dr. Gladys has developed an innovative approach to conservation among the endangered Mountain Gorillas of Bwindi Impenetrable Forest and their human neighbors. Walking with Gorillas takes the reader on an incredible personal journey with Dr. Gladys, from her early days as a student in Uganda, enduring the assassination of her father during a military coup, to her veterinarian education in England to establishing the first veterinary department for the Ugandan government to founding one of the first organizations in the world that enables people to coexist with wildlife through improving the health and wellbeing of both. Her award-winning approach reduced the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on critically endangered mountain gorillas. In the face of discrimination and a male dominated world, one woman’s passion and determination to build a brighter future for the local wildlife and human community offers inspiration and insights into what is truly possible for our planet when we come together.

The Psychoanalysis of Dr. Seele - Leslie Stein - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Psychoanalysis of Dr. Seele - Leslie Stein - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Dr. Enoch Seele, a world-leading transplant surgeon, flourishes in the rarified realm of the New York elite, where his great power and wealth render him arrogant and inaccessible. But Enoch’s soul has other plans. An unexpected confrontation with a patient’s criminal father ignites a terrifying dream, creating a small crack in his impenetrable ego. Circumstances quickly cascade, widening that crack and threatening Seele’s professional reputation, forcing him to find what might lie beneath the surface of his life as a self-important doctor. Unsettled, confused, and fearful, he enters psychoanalysis and begins the process of a difficult confrontation with the inner depths of feeling and compassion—that strange dimension in which Enoch embarks on an extraordinary and dangerous journey that brings him to the edge of madness. The Psychoanalysis of Dr. Seele is a gripping, fast-moving tale about the high price to be paid by the arrogant and unaccountable, with their inflated egos, who must eventually question the belief that wealth and power are the meaning of life. Yet, it forces the reader to decide the worth of unraveling life’s true purpose and the mystery of our existence.

Aging or Alzheimer's? - Dr. Kenneth Frumkin - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Is it normal aging, Alzheimer’s, or another dementia? Two of three Americans will experience cognitive impairment by the age of 70. But is it natural age-related forgetfulness, or the early indication of Alzheimer’s Disease or other types of dementia? How worried should older people—or their families and friends—be about their memory loss? And what happens next? Kenneth Frumkin, PhD, MD, recently retired from a 36-year medical career and facing his own age- and memory-related challenges, provides an empathetic and comprehensive guide to answering those questions. Aging or Alzheimer's? explains what is currently known about the challenges to memory and cognition that come with longevity. Dr. Frumkin describes the progression of Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias; discusses when to see a doctor and what to expect from the visit; weighs the pros and cons of available tests, treatments, and research; shares personal and passionate tips for coping with decline; and gives the best ways to preserve cognitive health. There are an average of 15 new Alzheimer’s publications per day. While busy practicing doctors often wait for the consensus reviews of new Alzheimer’s studies that are published about every 10 years, Dr. Frumkin provides evidence-based, up-to-date guidance from the most current memory research. The result is your complete, modern guide to understanding and managing your—or your loved ones’—memory loss or cognitive decline.

Are We the Next Endangered Species? unravels the complex web of historical events, misinformation, and the ominous convergence of bioweapons and eugenics In this thought-provoking new book, Dr. Fleming challenges us to navigate the murky waters of history, exposing parallel programs developed over the last 170 years in the United States. This riveting exploration unearths ancient civilizations that embraced slavery, sterilization, and eugenics, drawing chilling parallels to our present reality.

Are we destined to replicate the errors that led to the rise of powerful individuals and organizations seeking ultimate control over others? Key revelations include the stealthy usurpation of power in the United States since the 1850s, the nation's pivotal role in developing biological and chemical weapons, and its shocking collaboration with Nazi scientists, doctors, and intelligence officers. Dr. Fleming unveils the shadowy world of covert operations, the establishment of the military-industrial complex, and the surrender of medical control to the federal government. Readers will discover the intricate pathways of biowarfare and eugenics converging with the emergence of COVID. They will learn about the gain-of-function bioweapons responsible for the pandemic and the parallel development of eugenic genetic vaccines. Fleming reveals the control wielded by the military-industrial complex and world leaders over your life, movement, property, and freedoms. This book is not just an exploration of the past or a revelation of how those in power are on the brink of realizing their ultimate control, it's a call to action. It doesn't just raise awareness—it empowers readers to understand, question, and take decisive action to halt the ominous path we're on. In a world where truth is elusive and power is coveted, this book is a beacon of knowledge, urging you to discover what you can do to stop the impending threats to our existence.

Science for Sale - David L. Lewis - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Science for Sale - David L. Lewis - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

When Speaker Newt Gingrich greeted Dr. David Lewis in his office overlooking the National Mall, he looked at Dr. Lewis and said: “You know you’re going to be fired for this, don’t you?” “I know,” Dr. Lewis replied, “I just hope to stay out of prison.” Gingrich had just read Dr. Lewis’s commentary in Nature, titled “EPA Science: Casualty of Election Politics.” Three years later, and thirty years after Dr. Lewis began working at EPA, he was back in Washington to receive a Science Achievement Award from Administrator Carol Browner for his second article in Nature. By then, EPA had transferred Dr. Lewis to the University of Georgia to await termination—the Agency’s only scientist to ever be lead author on papers published in Nature and Lancet. The government hires scientists to support its policies; industry hires them to support its business; and universities hire them to bring in grants that are handed out to support government policies and industry practices. Organizations dealing with scientific integrity are designed only to weed out those who commit fraud behind the backs of the institutions where they work. The greatest threat of all is the purposeful corruption of the scientific enterprise by the institutions themselves. The science they create is often only an illusion, designed to deceive; and the scientists they destroy to protect that illusion are often our best. This book is about both, beginning with Dr. Lewis’s experience, and ending with the story of Dr. Andrew Wakefield.

Hazard - Margaret Combs - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Hazard - Margaret Combs - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

Hazard is a poignant, unflinching memoir of the emotional intricacies of growing up with a severely disabled sibling. Margaret Combs shows how her Southern Baptist family coped with lived reality of autism in an era of ignorance and shame, the 1950s through the 1970s, and shares her own tragedy and anguish of being torn between helping her brother and yearning for her own life. Like many siblings of disabled children, young Margaret drives herself to excel in order to make up for her family’s sorrow and ultimately flees her family for what she hopes is a ?normal” life. Hazard is also a story of indelible bonds between siblings: the one between Combs and her sister, and the deep and rueful one she has with her disabled brother; how he and she were buddies; and how fervently she wanted to make him whole. Initially fueled by a wish that her brother had never been born, the author eventually arrives in a deeper place of gratitude for this same brother, whom she loves and who loves her in return.

A Dark Night in Aurora - Dr. William H. Reid - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

A Dark Night in Aurora - Dr. William H. Reid - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

James Holmes killed or wounded seventy people in a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado. Only one man was allowed to record extensive interviews with the shooter. This is what he found. On July 20, 2012 in Aurora, Colorado, a man in dark body armor and a gas mask entered a midnight premiere of The Dark Knight Rises with a tactical shotgun, a high-capacity assault rifle, and a sidearm. He threw a canister of tear gas into the crowd and began firing. Soon twelve were dead and fifty-eight were wounded; young children and pregnant women were among them. The man was found calmly waiting at his car. He was detained without resistance. Unlike the Columbine, Newtown, San Bernadino, Orlando, Las Vegas, and Jacksonville shootings, and James Holmes is unique among mass shooters in his willingness to be taken into custody alive. In the court case that followed, only Dr. William H. Reid, a distinguished forensic psychiatrist, would be allowed to record interviews with the defendant. Reid would read Holmes’ diary, investigate his phone calls and text messages, interview his family and acquaintances, speak to his victims, and review tens of thousands of pages of evidence and court testimony in an attempt to understand how a happy, seemingly normal child could become a killer. A Dark Night in Aurora uses the twenty-three hours of unredacted interview transcripts never seen by the public and Reid’s research to bring the reader inside the mind of a mass murderer. The result is chilling, gripping study of abnormal psychology and how a lovely boy named Jimmy became a killer.

Dead Wrong - David Wayne - Bog - Skyhorse Publishing - Plusbog.dk

For years, the government has put out hits on people that they found “expendable,” or who they felt were “talking too much,” covering up their assassinations with drug overdoses and mysterious suicides. In Dead Wrong , a study of the scientific and forensic facts of various Government cover-ups, Richard Belzer and David Wayne argue that Marilyn Monroe was murdered, that the person who shot Martin Luther King Jr. was ordered to do so by the government, and examines many other terrifying lies we've been told throughout our country’s history. The extensive research shows how our government has taken matters into its own hands, plotting murder whenever it saw fit. Belzer and Wayne also examine the deaths of White House Counsel Vincent Foster, U.N. Weapons Inspector Dr. David C. Kelly, and bio-weapons expert Dr. Frank Olson, as well as the cases of two murders directly linked Lyndon B. Johnson, the 36th President of the United States. “Big Brother” is watching you—through the scope of a sniper rifle. Dead Wrong will give you the straight facts on some of the most controversial and famous deaths this country has ever seen. The harsh reality is that our government only tells us what we want to hear, as they look out for their own best interests and eliminate anyone who gets in their way.
