The Noticer
Author: Andy Andrews
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 1418574562
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 115
Book Description
A New York Times bestseller! From the author of The Traveler’s Gift comes a story of common wisdom based on the remarkable true story of “Jones,” a mysterious old man who has a knack for showing up in people's lives at just the right time, providing priceless lessons about love, life, and the importance of perspective. Orange Beach, Alabama, is a simple town filled with simple people. But like all humans on the planet, the good folks of Orange Beach have their share of problems—marriages teetering on the brink of divorce, young adults giving up on life, businesspeople on the verge of bankruptcy, as well as the many other obstacles that life seems to dish out to the masses. These situations can seem like dead ends, but to an old drifter named Jones with a gift for seeing what others miss, there is no such thing as a dead end. It only takes a little “perspective,” he says, to recognize the miracles in our moments, the seeds of greatness tucked into our struggles. Appearing when things look darkest, the mysterious, elderly man with white hair carrying a battered old suitcase shows up when he’s needed most. “Your time on this earth is a gift to be used wisely,” he says. “Don’t squander your words or your thoughts. Consider even the simplest action you take, for your lives matter beyond measure…and they matter forever.” The Noticer will provide you with: A better understanding of life’s challenges and proper perspective for tackling them Practical yet powerful methods of motivation, encouragement, and resolve for those struggling A fresh and insightful perspective on how people can change their view of the world, find strength, and move beyond their problems Based on a remarkable true story, The Noticer beautifully blends fiction and allegory in an entertaining and inspiring instruction manual for better living. The story of Jones continues in The Noticer Returns and Just Jones.

Dancing Cats, Silent Canaries
Author: David Denton Davis
Publisher: Outskirts Press
ISBN: 9781432767952
Category : Autism
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
Two of the biggest mistakes of the 20th Century may be the use of polyvinyl chloride, also known as PVC, in baby mattresses and the aggressive use of unproven baby and infant vaccines. Both PVC and vaccines contain dangerous heavy metal toxins. The epidemics of Sudden Infant Death and the spectrum of autistic disorders have grown in parallel with the growing use of PVC and vaccines. Dr. Davis' emergency medicine career has witnessed many events that support his accusations. This book provides parents with little known but important facts that suggest both PVC and vaccines can be deadly or disabling alone or in combination with each other. Most importantly, Dr. Davis offers parents, who wish to become advocates, steps that can be taken to protect their babies from the oversights and greed of the petrochemical, pharmaceutical and medical industries before it is too late.
