Go Fish

Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 146282403X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
The book contains three parts. Part 1: Adam was an auto worker; he wanted to take a long vacation before his retirement. He wanted to make his soul searching trip on his car named Rudy. He wanted to figure out his life for the last time. Adam, his son Cady and his daughter-in-law Elena and his grand daughter Mothi took the road trip to California. They did a lot of camping and fishing. Adam talks about the evolution of life form as he understood. He proposes a parametric system due to the variation of the basic dimensions such as time, energy, humanity and system. He shows the niche for the existance of various species. Thus they do not have a preprogrammed malice in their mind for their existance. It is just a manifestation of energy. We should not misuse the term survival of the fittest. Part 2: They talked about various philosophies as they went thru the trip. Adam told many stories to explain his concepts. He talks about a comprehensive outlook of all the current political systems such as individualism, socialism and communism from the existence point of view. Thus a connectivity between the systems can be established to transact in a humane way. This could avoid various political imbalance in the society, whether it may be a local or international. As all the philosophers have mentioned, if we can understand or define a problem well then we are already in the process of fixing it. He talks about the logic for religious philosophy. He explains that the process of looking beyond the individual or social or communalism is the basis for religion. It is a process for looking beyond our lives. He also explains that the most common hurdle that you face in the thought process of science or philosophy (rationale) is the entity called Conflict. We do not face such hurdle in the religious thought process. It is beyond the bounds of existence and hence we do not have the bounds of existence and hence the entity of conflict disappears. He also talks about the human intuition. He talks about how to develop the human intuition, which is useful to form large patterns as well as to understand large patterns, without the complete rationale (understanding). He touches on the topic of Order and Chaos. He talks on the subject beyond the classical analysis of a broken cup and its implication on physics. He mentions his comments on the intrinsic and extrinsic properties of the various entities. Adam explains these concepts in short stories to his grand daughter Mothi. Part 3: They progress well into their trip. They reach San Francisco and went around with their family and friends. They made a number of camping. Adam was continuing his discourses. He talked about Time and its manifestation. He proposes the attributes of energy that makes the time move forward or makes a path where it evolves us to a better and able people as well as form a stable and peaceful system. He proposes to obtain a positive arrow of time. He continues his thought to form a theoretical process using systems and knowledge and science of mathematics. He talks about the basis of various systems such as mathematics, music, language and computers and so on, how to transfer between them and how the knowledge was perceived in the olden days thru human body and mind. It was a mind boggling session on the perception of human mind on the grand theories and how he uses his own body and mind to perceive them understand them and formulate them. He talks about error and the way we need to perceive it and he also mentions on the body model, mind model and the interaction of energy and time. He talks about energy and subjective energy and his experiment with information. He talks about Natural vs. Artificial design. He uses the information theories and the financial systems and energy principles to create a proposal for inventing new material (without the use of expen

Kings of the Yukon
Author: Adam Weymouth

Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"The Yukon River is 2,000 miles long and the longest stretch of free-flowing river in the United States. In this riveting examination of one of the last wild places on earth, Adam Weymouth canoes from Canada's Yukon Territory, through Alaska, to the Bering Sea. The result is a book that shows how even the most remote wilderness is affected by the same forces reshaping the rest of the planet. Every summer, hundreds of thousands of king salmon migrate the distance of the Yukon to their spawning grounds, where they breed and die, in what is the longest salmon run in the world. For the people who live along the river, salmon were once the lifeblood of commerce and local culture. But climate change and globalized economy have fundamentally altered the balance between people and nature; the health and numbers of king salmon are in question, as is the fate of the communities that depend on them. Traveling down the Yukon as the salmon migrate, a four-month journey through untrammeled landscape, Weymouth traces the fundamental interconnectedness of people and fish through searing and unforgettable portraits of the individuals he encounters. He offers a powerful, nuanced glimpse into indigenous cultures, and into our ever-complicated relationship with the natural world. Weaving in the rich history of salmon across time as well as the science behind their mysterious life cycle, 'Kings of the Yukon' is extraordinary adventure and nature writing at its most urgent and poetic"--Dust jacket.

Book Description
If I Should Die includes Allison Brennan’s chilling novella Love Is Murder, formerly available exclusively as an eBook! A TRIP TO THE DARK SIDE Aspiring FBI agent Lucy Kincaid and her P.I. boyfriend, Sean Rogan, are heading to the Adirondack Mountains for a pleasant romantic getaway when they detour to help troubled friends, owners of a new resort who are battling malicious vandals. After Lucy and Sean pursue an arsonist into an abandoned mine shaft, Lucy stumbles upon an even more heinous crime—and the perfectly preserved remains of its victim. The only thing more disturbing than the discovery of the corpse is its sudden disappearance. While the local police remain skeptical, Lucy is dead certain that there’s a connection between the sabotage at the resort and the murder—one that the less-than-neighborly citizens of Spruce Lake seem to have a stake in keeping hidden. Then, when a cold-blooded sniper targets Sean and Lucy, FBI agent Noah Armstrong enters the fray to ensure that more bodies don’t hit the ground. Now three outsiders race to untangle a violent conspiracy before they end up like the rest of Spruce Lake’s secrets: dead and buried.
