Tales of Space and Time is a fantasy and science fiction collection of three short stories and two novellas written by the English author H. G. Wells between 1897 and 1898. It was first published by Doubleday & McClure Co. in 1899. All the stories had first been published in various monthly periodicals and this was the first volume to collect these stories.

The gentle melancholy of two people coming together in a way which can never lead to full satisfaction, the quiet tragedy of a separation not forced by external powers but by the constant pressure of circumstances-this is what sounds through this splendid story. "Trials and Tribulations" is built entirely on this motive. An honest sturdy young officer and a decent pretty girl get to know each other on an excursion. Unconsciously they drift into a relation where heart meets heart, the breaking of which causes the deepest pain.

Ivy, Mateo und Cal waren einmal befreundet, jetzt haben sie nichts mehr miteinander zu tun. Aber als Cal zu spät zur Schule kommt und dort auf Ivy und Mateo trifft, ist das die Gelegenheit, eine alte Tradition wiederaufleben zu lassen: einen Tag blau machen. Bei ihrem spontanen Ausflug in die Stadt sichten sie zufällig einen vierten Schüler auf Abwegen und folgen ihm - mitten hinein in einen Tatort. Ivy, Cal und Mateo kennen den Toten, der vor ihnen liegt - und eigentlich sollten sie jetzt die Polizei rufen. Doch sie alle haben eine Verbindung zum Opfer. Und etwas zu verbergen.

This story starts with a milkmaid named Sarah Nelms in 1796. It resulted in the complete elimination of a plague that killed millions of people all over the world. Dr. Jenner developed the first "vaccine" that would go on to save millions of lives around the world. We now have multiple vaccines that prevent over 10,000 deaths every year in the US.

Both young and old will enjoy this heartwarming tale of a boy who, at 16 years of age, returns from the summer pastures higher up in the mountains, where he had been watching and caring for his father's sheep, only to find their home ransacked, the stables burned to the ground, and all the animals, including the dogs, killed.

What Is Shamanism? within the series The Shamanic Quest is an opening book for understanding what shamanism is and what role it plays today in Western society and culture. The purpose of the book is to show that shamanism really is a science, which becomes clear after comparing it with what seems to be similar movements in society.

Coscienza e Sciamanesimo: Esperienze Cognitive nella Trance Ayahuasca e Teorie della Loro Causa è il risultato del viaggio ayahuasca dell’autore nel 2004 in Ecuador, dove stava bevendo la sacra bevanda alla presenza di un esperto sciamano Shuar.

"Das obszöne Werk", 1972 erstmals auf Deutsch erschienen, apostrophierte Susan Sontag als "Kammermusik der pornographischen Literatur". Die erotische Erfahrung ist für Bataille eine zweifache: die des Tabus und die seiner Überschreitung; erst die Überschreitung des Tabus ermöglicht den Personen Batailles - Sartre nannte ihn einen "neuen Mystiker" - auch die Transzendierung des Ich.

George and the Aliens is an enjoyable listen for all young children. It follows a young boy George who is greeted by a group of aliens who have brought some rules to the world around him. It has a subtext which teaches the key principles of COVID-19 in a way children can easily interprets. Much like COVID-19, this was a collaborative effort to produce this audiobook from a group of university students pooling together their ideas.

To celebrate his 65th birthday, Mr. Lidman and daughter are throwing a small party at their cozy home in the countryside, only to discover an uninvited stranger among the guests. When confronted in private by Lidman, the stranger explains he has been hired to murder him, but offers more time as a birthday present (until the end of the party).

An Ayahuasca Journey within the series The Shamanic Quest is a report of my Ayahuasca voyage in 2004 to Ecuador, where I was drinking the sacred brew in the presence of an experienced Shuar shaman. I erect the hypothesis that when the traditional Ayahuasca brew is ingested, it is not, or not directly, the plant’s DMT that causes the spiritual voyage, as it is assumed in the overwhelming part of the literature on shamanism and entheogens.

Lo scopo dell’articolo era di mostrare che lo sciamanesimo è davvero una scienza, il che diventa chiaro dopo averlo confrontato con quelli che sembrano essere movimenti simili nella società. L’articolo prepara uno studio più approfondito dello sciamanesimo come scienza, che si intitola ‘Il Metodo Sciamanico’ e fa parte della stessa serie.

The Role of Intention in the Shamanic Experience as part of the series The Shamanic Quest is a study that is based on the essential hypothesis erected in my report An Ayahuasca Journey, about my experience with the sacred Ayahuasca brew back in 2004 in Ecuador. The hypothesis I have erected in that report was that there is no linear causation by plant chemistry only, as most of the shamanism researchers admit, such as "it’s the DMT in the brew that causes the consciousness-altering cognitive experience."

Eroe Edipo: Il Lato Nascosto Della Gloria è uno studio su un particolare problema di psichiatria non ancora chiarito. ‘Eroe Edipo’ è un termine che ho forgiato per un individuo, di solito di sesso maschile, che soffre di una patologia specifica che deriva da una combinazione di complesso edipico irrisolto e narcisismo. A mio parere, la psichiatria moderna ha appena iniziato a identificare questo problema, e il mio approccio per delineare scientificamente e psicologicamente questa patologia è quindi da considerarsi un lavoro pionieristico.

A Science of Pattern within the series The Shamanic Quest is a research report about what I found to be Eight Dynamic Patterns of Living in the lifestyle of tribal native populations around the world. These lifestyle patterns secure in native populations a harmonious relationship with nature, and integration of emotions and a generally peaceful lifestyle.

Ödipus Suite: Ein Kulturbeitrag ist trotz alles philosophischen Tiefgangs ein Selbsthilfe-Essay. Selbsthilfe ohne Bewusstmachung der kulturellen Strukturen, in die unser Leben eingebettet ist, kann nicht überzeugen. Menschliche Größe kann nicht erreicht werden, indem wir uns über die Kultur hinwegsetzen, sondern indem wir die Kultur, die wir internalisiert haben, hinterfragen und bewusst machen.

The Warrior-Scientist as part of the series The Shamanic Quest represents a closer look at the figure of the shaman, who is not only a healer and a sage in all tribal shamanic cultures, but also a trusted communicator with the sacred, invisible realms inhabited by spirits. It is now established research that shamans are people with superior personal and interpersonal skills who often as early as in adolescence follow a call to become a guide and healer for their clan or even their entire tribe.

The Shamanic Method as part of the series The Shamanic Quest is a study that is based on my essential hypothesis that shamanism is a science, the first real science that humanity has developed through the wisdom of native Aboriginal peoples around the world.

Normative Psychoanalysis: How the Oedipal Dogma Shapes Consumer Culture' (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 14) is a critique of Sigmund Freud’s theory of the Oedipus complex. This study demonstrates that Freudian psychoanalysis, applied to children, is not permissive, but castrative; in addition, it is normative and actually a tool for forging the ideal consumer child within a consumer culture that is based on the economic paradigm of total consumption.
