The Body of Jesus Christ Found In India? MARYLAND, APRIL 26, 2010: AuthorHouse Publishing presents Maryland author, Marcus Allgood, who has now published a most controversial book in a post-Dan Brown world called "What Da Vinci Really Didn't Want You to Know: the Jesus Conspiracy." FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 26, 2010 – the book begins with a warning disclaimer...and wow, once you open the book - it will blow your mind.

The book also explores a figure in Hindu lore named Jas Asaf (The Healer) which may have been Jesus Christ in India. Marcus documents clues from the several sources; including the canonical religious books of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. If you have an open mind, then prepare to be intrigued.

The Science of Leonardo
Author: Fritjof Capra
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0307472922
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Leonardo da Vinci's scientific explorations were virtually unknown during his lifetime, despite their extraordinarily wide range. He studied the flight patterns of birds to create some of the first human flying machines; designed military weapons and defenses; studied optics, hydraulics, and the workings of the human circulatory system; and created designs for rebuilding Milan, employing principles still used by city planners today. Perhaps most importantly, Leonardo pioneered an empirical, systematic approach to the observation of nature-what is known today as the scientific method.Drawing on over 6,000 pages of Leonardo's surviving notebooks, acclaimed scientist and bestselling author Fritjof Capra reveals Leonardo's artistic approach to scientific knowledge and his organic and ecological worldview. In this fascinating portrait of a thinker centuries ahead of his time, Leonardo singularly emerges as the unacknowledged “father of modern science.” From the Trade Paperback edition.

Book Description
A wildly entertaining and surprisingly educational dive into art history as you've never seen it before, from the host of the beloved ArtCurious podcast We're all familiar with the works of Claude Monet, thanks in no small part to the ubiquitous reproductions of his water lilies on umbrellas, handbags, scarves, and dorm-room posters. But did you also know that Monet and his cohort were trailblazing rebels whose works were originally deemed unbelievably ugly and vulgar? And while you probably know the tale of Vincent van Gogh's suicide, you may not be aware that there's pretty compelling evidence that the artist didn't die by his own hand but was accidentally killed--or even murdered. Or how about the fact that one of Andy Warhol's most enduring legacies involves Caroline Kennedy's moldy birthday cake and a collection of toenail clippings? ArtCurious is a colorful look at the world of art history, revealing some of the strangest, funniest, and most fascinating stories behind the world's great artists and masterpieces. Through these and other incredible, weird, and wonderful tales, ArtCurious presents an engaging look at why art history is, and continues to be, a riveting and relevant world to explore.
