From Galileo's discoveries in 1610, to the latest returns from the Cassini spacecraft in orbit around Saturn, four centuries of discoveries in the solar system are summarized, complete with the names of those responsible for finding them.The 185 known moons of the planets and dwarf planets in the solar system are described in great detail, from how they were discovered, and by whom, to information about their sizes and orbits.The strange and exotic origins of the moons' names make for astonishing stories.

He has devoted his efforts since retiring to writing about astronomy as well as three books of science fiction. The author lived most of his life in big cities including San Francisco and New York, "which are about as bad for viewing the sky as living in a cave. The year I spent in New Hampshire was the best time for getting personally acquainted with the night sky. The asteroid 4897 was named by the International Astronomical Union Tomhamilton for me."

In 1989 the Brazilian student Paulo Roberto was abducted by a "flying saucer". His captors are representatives of a super developed civilization inhabiting the star Cygni 61, which they call Omeron. This is civilization-parent of the terrestrial one. For an earth man such as Paulo this is a strange and completely unaccustomed world in every respect. On this planet money and states do not exist. They have withered away; the same way as verbal speech has withered away, too, replaced by telepathy. In this civilization things are accomplished by the direct exchange of energy - without money, as well as the direct exchange of information - without speech; all are united in a common energy-info exchange. These humans look somehow not so solid, not so heavy, pale, and faintly gauzy. They are an odd society of slightly lucent at times yogis. They have a transparent blood and unknown metabolism. But even the bravest visionary's dreams cannot vie with this reality - for these humans can fly! Yes! These nondescript supermen, almost imperishable and ethereal, soar through the air like biblical angels. In 2023 Paulo comes back to the Earth. What does he find here and what happens with him then?

Ignorance of the particularity and the peculiarity of the exclusive material of the Gospel of Matthew lead to a serious misunderstanding of the essential thrust of the Gospel. The ongoing attempt to read the Gospel without clarity, especially as it relates to the meaning, purpose, and function of the Matthean M, is an injustice to the Matthean community and its effort to advance the Gospel of liberation of Jesus, the Messiah of God. Ultimately, this research into the meaning, reason, and function of the Matthean M is a call for a rethinking of all the Gospels. To do so would require a revisit to the evangelistic thrust of each Gospel and to review what might be considered the hidden function of the Gospels.The most striking injustice to the Message of the Gospels is the failure on the part of succeeding generations to mistakenly read the Gospels without due consideration for the socio-moral-theological journey of the religious group.Those who joined the group in its journey caused a continuous evolution of the socio-moral-theological practices and beliefs, to the end that sometimes it was not clear as to what came first: the message of Jesus or the socio-moral-theological adaptation of the dynamics that define the point and time of the journey.The mistake is made in limiting the socio-moral-theological premise to the impact of the Gospel on the people, while at the heart of the mission, the people revolutionized the Gospel. The journey continues. Readers are challenged to read the Gospel through new eyes, and to recognize the diversity to engage and to embrace a new strategic mission community.Dr. Livingstone R. Malcolm, a Methodist minister, taught New/Old Testament and theological ethics, and currently has a practice in clinical pastoral counseling.

There is romantic, erotic love. There is game-playing, uncommitted love. There is obsessive, possessive love, and there is friendship-based love. There is pragmatic, practical love, and there is gentle, caring, unconditional love. Where does self-love fit in? Just Passing Thru is a tale of a self-absorbed and wealthy ladies' man and an emotionally immature, but brilliant and successful corporate consultant who crash into one another in a passionate attraction that intertwines them, yet confuses them. Belinda and Anton are caught in negative and positive powerful pulls that thrust them onto the same path and then forcibly pull them apart again and again as they just pass through different types of love that could lead them down the path to self-actualization or down the path to self-destruction. Just Passing Thru is an account of the romance, confusion and inevitable growth that can result when alcoholism and co-dependency get mixed up with self-empowerment and intelligence as the driving and conflicting forces. Who has the most to lose? Who has the most to gain? The church girl or the party boy? Belinda wants to gain true love. Will she find it with Anton? A good partner will ride with you until hell freezes over and even a little while on the ice. But when will enough be more than enough?

I'm the President, by Donald Thump was written by George A.M. Heroux, although it pretends to be written by a fictional President who has to deal with all the issues currently confronting the real President, Donald Trump. President Thump writes his book during the campaign and during part of his presidency.In this book, we get to know an American President who is outrageous in thought and action. He is totally over the top, as he confidently describes his business beginnings, his connection with Russia, his attitude on guns, his womanizing, and many other topics that demonstrate the mind of a dangerous President. But the book is not without humor, because Thump's actions are sometimes so ridiculous that readers can only be fascinated and amused.This is Donald Thump's tell-all, because his plan is to write the truth and publish it only after he leaves the presidency with a so-what attitude, returning to his billionaire life and his hideaways.Set primarily in the White House, the characters are somewhat based on real people or on very ridiculous people with interesting names. George A.M. Heroux is a lawyer, victim advocate, university instructor, and acclaimed author.

Women Who Wrote for Their Lives: The Healing Power of Creative Writing was inspired by author Janet Frame, the late New Zealand writer who penned novels, poetry, and short stories, as well as her own powerful autobiography.Frame's dramatic personal history included years of psychiatric hospitalisation. Born in 1924, Frame passed away in 2004. During her early life, patients with severe mental health issues received what today would be considered grim treatment. Days before the author was scheduled for a lobotomy, the procedure was cancelled when her first book of short stories won a national literary prize. Author and retired psychiatrist Kenneth Bragan realizes how powerful writing can be as a therapeutic tool. He says, "Starting with Janet Frame's remarkable recovery to become a writer of international repute after having spent many years in mental hospitals, I went on to find four other well-known writers who had to keep mental suffering at bay through writing."He explores The Healing Power of Creative Writing from a psychiatric perspective in his book."[This book] is a stunning exploration of the intersection of mental health and the arts. Author Kenneth Bragan presents a rigorous analysis of the work and lives of five eminent female authors, demonstrating how their creative processes both reflected and helped alleviate the struggles of their mental illnesses. From Frame to Woolf to du Maurier, Bragan argues…that literary history presents us with unique strategies for betterment…allowing agency and expression to guide us therapeutically to a better understanding of the self… [it is] essential reading for anyone looking for a creative approach to betterment." - Charles Asher, reviewerwww.sbprabooks.net/KennethBragan

Dying as a Shahid: Martyrs in Islam examines the motives, religious and psychological, which make the so-called "suicide bomber" tick.What is usually so called, must rather be termed "Islamikaze," a combination of Islam and kamikaze, due to the phenomenological resemblance between the Japanese kamikaze who fought in the Pacific during World War II, and the present-day Muslim terrorists.In addition to the religious, social, and psychological underpinnings of the phenomenon of Shahid (martyr), there is a rich array of historical precedents that have fixated this sort of terrorism with self-immolation, dubbed "self-sacrifice," as a prominent feature of Islamic life.(About the Author)Raphael Israeli has taught Islamic, Chinese, and Middle Eastern history at Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
