"Cautious, conservative Molly Driscoll still works at the same Jersey shore hospital in which she completed her nurse s training more than a decade ago. When her now-ex-husband, Jason, is diagnosed with terminal cancer, Molly tries to convince him to undergo a recommended course of chemotherapy.

Her assignments take her into the blizzards and biker-barsof New England, the genteel beauty and smoky pool-halls of South Carolina, and the carnival atmosphere of a busy walk-in clinic inKey West as well as to some very surprising and unexplored regions of her own heart. Along the way, Molly experiences a terrifying ordeal with a stranger, tender moments with patients who leave lasting impressions on her, the possibility of a would-be-stalker,and a fellow Travel Nurse who claims to be an angel . In spite of all her old self-doubts, Molly grows in confidence, proving that thoughshe may not be very good at driving a motorcycle, she is quite good at surviving and maybe even resilient enough to loveagain."

Book Description
This book starts out with a story about a guy named Steve Parker who crashes his Harley motorcycle and dies in the first paragraph. In a witty conversational style, Colin then chronicles the adventures Steve has with Joe, another discarnate soul he befriends soon after he dies, before they go together to the light. When they do finally go, they find themselves speeding up the tunnel of light on a Harley, only to be met by Harley, his Angel of Incarnation who then takes Steve through his life review. This, of course, reveals how all the principles of Radical Forgiveness had been working in Steve's life right until and including his death. He also gets to meet all the souls who had assisted him on his soul's journey. As a story it is both touching and funny. But it is also a teaching about Radical Forgiveness, albeit from a very different and unusual angle. Part Two constitutes an opportunity for you to imagine yourself, were you to die in this moment, going through your own life review from that same Radical Forgiveness perspective. This will give you a great deal of insight into your own life and how it has unfolded perfectly according to your own Divine Plan up to now. Part Three provides the opportunity to plan your future having awakened to the truth of who you are. It helps you plan what's next.' This is why we have called it a Radical Karma Workbook.' It will help you put the principles of Radical Forgiveness and Radical Manifestation into practice in your every day life.

Hell's Angels
Author: Hunter S. Thompson
Publisher: Ballantine Books
ISBN: 0307826619
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Gonzo journalist and literary roustabout Hunter S. Thompson flies with the angels—Hell’s Angels, that is—in this short work of nonfiction. “California, Labor Day weekend . . . early, with ocean fog still in the streets, outlaw motorcyclists wearing chains, shades and greasy Levis roll out from damp garages, all-night diners and cast-off one-night pads in Frisco, Hollywood, Berdoo and East Oakland, heading for the Monterey peninsula, north of Big Sur. . . The Menace is loose again.” Thus begins Hunter S. Thompson’s vivid account of his experiences with California’s most notorious motorcycle gang, the Hell’s Angels. In the mid-1960s, Thompson spent almost two years living with the controversial Angels, cycling up and down the coast, reveling in the anarchic spirit of their clan, and, as befits their name, raising hell. His book successfully captures a singular moment in American history, when the biker lifestyle was first defined, and when such countercultural movements were electrifying and horrifying America. Thompson, the creator of Gonzo journalism, writes with his usual bravado, energy, and brutal honesty, and with a nuanced and incisive eye; as The New Yorker pointed out, “For all its uninhibited and sardonic humor, Thompson’s book is a thoughtful piece of work.” As illuminating now as when originally published in 1967, Hell’s Angels is a gripping portrait, and the best account we have of the truth behind an American legend.
