Although the development of nuclear weapons by different countries was one of the reasons why extraterrestrial civilizations began visiting Earth in the World War II era, a more significant and far-reaching explanation exists. However, the truth was not shared for decades due to its disturbing nature. Only today do we know the whole truth. The Earth had become the epicenter of a temporal war involving a future galactic tyranny, whose origins lay in a secret agreement reached by Nazi Germany with a group of extraterrestrials called Draco Reptilians. This agreement resulted in establishing a breakaway German colony in Antarctica that soon gave birth to the nefarious Dark Fleet (Nachtwaffen), which aligned itself with the Draco's master plan for galactic conquest. After detecting the sudden emergence of galactic tyranny 350 years in the future, a group of extraterrestrials known as the Andromeda Council notified the Galactic Federation of Worlds and other freedom loving extraterrestrial organizations about the threat posed by contemporary events happening on Earth, its Moon, and Mars. Thus, a temporal war began involving different extraterrestrial federations, councils, and secret space programs, each striving to steer long-term events on Earth to prevent or bring about this sweeping tyranny that could overtake the galaxy. Both sides have used time travel technologies to influence key individuals, events, and movements on Earth. Operatives from each side have been embedded into different countries, especially aerospace companies, to help humans build advanced technologies for different secret space programs.>In Galactic Federations, Councils & Secret Space Programs (Book Seven of the Secret Space Program Series), Dr. Michael Salla gives a grand tour of the different extraterrestrial groups and secret space programs involved in the temporal war that has been silently raging around us, unknown to most of humanity. Importantly, he will highlight current events leading to the fulfillment of a very positive and exciting Star Trek future where humanity joins the Galactic community.

The Dead don't always rest in peace. Dunham Raynor is a second-rate psychic traveling with a rundown medicine show. Months after the end of the American Civil War, Dun and his partners head west with dreams of easy wealth. They finally have a chance to make some real money when they cross paths with a murderess in a small Missouri town. The blackmail job is sure to give their band of swindlers the stake they need to reach San Francisco. But luck is a fickle mistress. Marked by magic as a youth, Dun isn't the fake he pretends to be. His mysterious tattoo of an Ouroboros allows him to see and speak with the Dead. When the ghost of a Confederate soldier arrives with a dire warning about the little town's imminent destruction, Dun must choose between loyalty and his own skin.The Undead never forget.Dun tries to escape his past by traveling west along the Santa Fe Trail, but vicious killers haunt his every step. Their ruthless games turn deadly as Dun's new traveling companions are brutally slaughtered. Are the supernatural hunters bent on delivering justice, or is the Necromancer holding their leash after revenge? The answer lies in the living Ouroboros embedded in Dun's chest.

La sarcoidosis es una enfermedad inflamatoria autoinmune que puede afectar a prácticamente cualquier órgano o sistema de nuestro cuerpo, por lo que se la considera como una enfermedad autoinmune sistémica. Se caracteriza por la formación de granulomas, principalmente en los pulmones, aunque puede afectar a cualquier otro órgano (piel, ojos, hígado, riñón, corazón, sistema nervioso, huesos y articulaciones, entre otros). Esta monografía ha sido coordinada por los doctores Pilar Brito-Zerón, Jacobo Sellarés, Roberto Pérez Álvarez, Lucio Pallarés y Manuel Ramos-Casals, y comprende diversas actualizaciones en aspectos de especial relevancia para abordar de un modo integral dicha enfermedad, desde la etiología y la geoepidemiología, las manifestaciones clínicas -con énfasis en las que ocasionan mayor morbilidad, como la afectación pulmonar y neurológica-, así como las terapias actuales o los consejos dirigidos a los pacientes.La colección Avances en enfermedades autoinmunes sistémicas, dirigida por el doctor Ricard Cervera, jefe del Servicio de Enfermedades Autoinmunes del Hospital Clínic de Barcelona y del Equipo de Investigación en Enfermedades Autoinmunes Sistémicas del Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS) de Barcelona.

Se suele pensar en la creatividad como si fuera un don; una cualidad exclusiva de unas pocas personas que nacieron tocadas por una varita mágica. Aquellas que se entregan al arte, el diseño, la música... todavía aparecen en el imaginario colectivo casi como divinidades situadas al margen de la uniformidad que domina al resto de la gente, la cual no puede hacer nada para cambiar su situación.Llorenç Guilera rompe con este tópico. Estudia a fondo la creatividad desde una perspectiva psicosocial y la entiende no tanto como un don, sino como una actitud en la vida. El punto de partida de la persona creativa es el inconformismo, y aprende a observar con ojos críticos para anticiparse a las necesidades de la sociedad. Identificará un problema, lo analizará y, con reglas, técnicas y métodos, propondrá más de una solución.Anatomía de la creatividad es un libro con una vertiente teórica, necesaria para entender los mecanismos de la creatividad, y con otra práctica muy útil para quienes pretenden fomentar su propia creatividad o la de su alumnado o la de su equipo de trabajo. Sintetiza todas las barreras psicológicas que pueden afectar a la creatividad y propone formas de superarlas. Todo ello se complementa con unos anexos de actividades prácticas.

Esta obra es un ensayo sobre la creatividad desde distintos puntos de vista.El libro empieza planteando en qué situaciones puede emerger la creatividad, que necesariamente ha de venir de la percepción y tiene que darse en un contexto de libertad. Con unas explicaciones que en cierto sentido son poéticas, el lugar en que somos creativos es visto a modo de utopía, el no lugar.El autor, Daniel Yacubovich, es artista, profesor y diseñador. Desde estas actividades se plantea las relaciones del arte y el diseño como elementos de gran valor creativo para la sociedad. Nos habla de arte utilizado políticamente, de productos y consumismo, de creatividad limitada, etc. Otro elemento fundamental del libro es la vertiente y la función que la escuela debería desempeñar a la hora de promover la creatividad, que en este ámbito se está perdiendo.La segunda parte del libro funciona a modo de homenaje a la diseñadora Ray Kaizer Eames. Se exponen algunos objetos de mobiliario y sillas diseñados por ella. Los asientos, debido a su presencia y, por otra parte, por su plano sugerente de una ausencia, se tornan un argumento central para explorar espacios diversos, que se manifiestan como espacios utópicos.Este libro se adentra en algunas formas de entrenar a personas corredoras de fondo de la creatividad.

Per gli italiani in Canada possiamo identificare un paio di particolarità insite nell'esperienza dei nostri amici al Nord. Innanzitutto, come sostiene la nostra collega Daniela Sanzone nel suo saggio che apre questo volume, è "solo dopo il 1951 che il Canada è divenuto una destinazione privilegiata per l'immigrazione di massa" (3) anche se si constata che intorno al 1900 c'erano già più di 10,000 italiani. Una seconda specificità riguarda il concetto di triangolazione, termine polivalente in quanto ha un riferimento da un lato linguistico e un secondo, d'altro canto, geoculturale. Vale a dire, Canada gode - c'è chi direbbe sofre - di una caratteristica linguistica diversa dalle altre zone italoanglofone che stiamo esaminando con questo progetto di quattro libri. Come illustra Antonio D'Alfonso nel suo saggio, qui incluso, gli scrittori italocanadesi hanno una sfida in più "cercano di costruire ponti multidirezionali: migliaia di pagine in italiano, francese e inglese sono dedicate alla consapevolezza di essere diversi. Alcuni lo etichettano triangolazione delle culture" (53), "italiana, francese e inglese" (69). Ma si tratta anche di definire la propria identità italiana, francese, inglese, mista, multi- o pluri-culturale? -dall' "Introduzione"

Joe Doyle is Ireland's number one business mentor for Tradesmen and the construction Industry. Hailing from Dublin, Ireland, Joe started off as a bricklayer before setting up his own construction business, which he ran for 10 years. Joe is now no longer involved in the construction industry but spends his time between his property investing activities and his Tradesman mentorship business, and is now one of the largest private landlords in West Dublin where he is based.Joe's client base consists of Tradesmen from all over Ireland and the UK, and his business mentorship service is designed specifically from what he learned on the tools and in business.Joe firmly believes that no Tradesman should depend exclusively on the construction industry to create wealth but should use their business purely as a vehicle for wealth creation, which in his instance is property investing.

"Medicine, Power, and the Law demonstrates that criminal and civil justice interact with medicine and public health more than is presently understood. The book focuses on the role of healthcare practitioners and an array of other professionals across industries in identifying wrongdoers, reporting behavior, and testifying on behalf of the state or government agencies. It also covers circumstances in which law enforcement relies on medicine for evidence or support in ways that compromise medical ethics. By reporting or testifying as experts, a range of people, from specialist pediatricians to flight attendants, can have a life-changing impact on individuals in the name of public health or medicine. People who work in hospitals, social work settings, and even airlines, often contribute to wrongful and aggressive criminal and civil actions against society's most vulnerable people, including parents, older adults, and people living with poverty. The book explores a number of examples, including police use of medicine as a restraint or the collection of blood as evidence and the risks of opting out of certain scientific discoveries, such as pharmaceuticals. It describes the harms that may come to those who engage in suboptimal but generally heretofore legal child-raising behaviors, and people opting to live independently as older adults. These can lead to civil and criminal charges when noticed by those in a position of power. Medicine, Power, and the Law is an important contribution for researchers and practitioners in medicine, the law, and the expanding field of bioethics."

It's the summer of 1977 and a suffocating heatwave has enveloped New York City. On the brink of financial ruin due to an ongoing fiscal crisis, and with a crumbling infrastructure stretching public resources to their breaking point, the city is on the precipice of catastrophe. Organized crime syndicates, gangs, and outlaws rule a city overrun by crime, poverty, and violence. Socialite Carolina Lynch has been kidnapped by one of these gangs and is being held for ransom in one of the five boroughs. Former Force Recon Marine and Vietnam War veteran Vicente "Vic" Espada is working as a Fugitive Apprehension Agent for a failing bail bonds company and living check to check without very many options. But when Vic's friend and former Force Recon sergeant Oran Burke approaches him with a job offer to find Carolina and lead Oran's team of highly trained operatives to her location, Vic thinks his luck is changing for the better. But things don't go as planned and with New York City plunged into darkness by a citywide blackout, Vic and Carolina find themselves alone and on the run from her violent kidnappers and their homicidal leader. Through an urban nightmare filled with marauders and psychopaths, Vic and Carolina must make their way to safety while trying to survive one night in Fear City.

All humor is philosophy. But Austrian linguist Ludwig Wittgenstein went further: "An entire treatise of philosophy could be written that consists entirely of jokes." Author Evan Hodkins similarly said: "The next religion will consist of an expansive catalog of humor." And Mexican poet Cesar Cruz added: "All art should comfort the disturbed, and disturb the comfortable."And now, dear reader, you have stumbled upon a very curious but very relatable collection of all-original humor that blends these ideas together into easy-to-digest, family-friendly, bite-sized nuggets -- known as "The Eisenberg Principles" -- one-sentence laughorisms!---From the Preface: It's rare to find a trifecta of thought streams and modalities as unexpectedly intertwined as what we find in this one-of-a-kind collection of original, one-sentence jokes, "laughorisms" known as The Eisenberg Principles. In these one-sentence vignettes, the fields of philosophy and psychology are married into uproariously funny trysts of paradoxical play, each one like a piece of brain-candy which is no less serious in its treatment of the human condition as it is absurd. We are not only afforded a chance to glimpse into the thoughts of this wondrously twisted thinker, we are challenged to follow him into the surprising and impossible rabbit holes of language he unearths on every page.F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in the mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function." This catalog of contradictions puts you through Fitzgerald's test, playing with the principles of paradox and polarity and taking you from the comforts of cliché to the chasms of contradiction with just a few strokes of a pen.
