message 751: by Pranav (new)

Pranav Prabhash | 1 comments A lot has been said about the tremendous benefits of today's Information Age. However, are there negative side effects of easily available abundant information from diverse sources?

Information has fostered a plethora of knowledge subjects that are not all equal. Vulnerabilities of the scientific method are getting exposed more often and thereby eroding science’s credibility with the general public. Our mental capacity has limitations in dealing with the quantity and variety of the information overload.

The book is an intellectual trip based on thought experiments, head-smacking experiences, and curious observations to assess and deal with the Perils of Information Age:
- Impotency of certain college majors and academic training
- Junk science behind statistical studies analyzing complexity
- Analysis-paralysis of data analytics
- Increasing strain on our cognitive abilities

If you are bothered by the similar issues, the book might interest you. The paperback edition is also available on amazon.

Frank Ryan (frankryan) | 144 comments Hi Everybody,

I write medical/ biological non-fiction aimed at an intelligent non-scientific reader. My latest book is The Mysterious World of the Human Genome, which sets out to explain how your human genome evolved and how understanding the evolution makes it much easier to understand how this extraordinary entity actually works. There's a lot more to it than just genes.

I'm widely experienced in non-fiction writing, with books published by many leading publishers in English and about ten or so translations into various foreign languages. Glad to become a member of this group and happy to give a little advice based on my experiences. I have also run a small press publisher that produced no less three bestsellers, so can give a bit of advice on this too. It's a lot easier to get a publisher, or to succeed as a self publisher, in non-fiction than fiction. That I can certainly attest to.

PARESH AJMERA (pareshpajmera) | 5 comments Hi everybody,

I am Paresh , author of Life of Social Animals )



(1) The book Life of Social Animals is a self-help book creating awareness of functioning of a typical human identity.
(2) It is an operation manual of how to make your identity a truly global one and enjoy being a civilized human being.
(4) It is a reference book for simplifying common yet complex issues (relationships, finance, family life, sex life, mental control, etc.) facing human identity and how to overcome them in order to enjoy them.
(5) It is and will always remain a family book without ever getting institutionalized.
(6) It is a how-to book about everything and everyone concerned with a typical human identity across all cultures, religions and societal formations.

You can read my interview before deciding to read it.

I assure you it is a unique book which will make you enjoy reading it as much as you enjoy being a human being. It is not necessarily a religious book but human identity can still have a purposeful attachment to religion of his or her liking.
Paresh.

Marisa Parker | 11 comments Hi fellow authors. I'm a debut author of award-winning book GOODBYE To Italia. It's the story of my mum and dad during World War 2 in Italy and Africa. They went through some hard times and very diverse experiences. So as to stay true to the telling of the story, it's written in alternating chapters from my mum and dad's perspective. Therefore, there's Italian drama and of course, it's ultimately, a love story! My mum also has a lot of photos and so these could be included in the book which I think adds another element to it.

Donna Brown | 13 comments My name is Donna Brown and I published my first nonfiction book in June. I'm a retired police sergeant having served 26 years. So many don't support law enforcement and view them in a negative light. Sometimes I'll admit with reason. Most people see a badge, Behind and Beyond the Badge is what they need to know, the person. Are there cops out there that shouldn't be cops? Absolutely but that's no different than any other profession. Overwhelmingly, most cops are good cops but more importantly they are good PEOPLE who love serving the communities they live in. I realize my words don't have the power to change minds but perhaps by offering a different perspective I can open minds. Isn't that partly what nonfiction books are about? I think so!

Jenn Baxter | 2 comments Hi all! My name is Jenn and I am new to Goodreads! My book, Live a F.a.s.t. Life: How Stripping Down and Cleaning Up Gave Me My Life Back, was just published last week. Looking for readers and reviewers!

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by what life has thrown at you? Whether you’ve suffered personal loss, a major life change, career challenges, toxic relationships or even a health crisis, you’ve found yourself wondering if the storms would ever stop coming and if you’d ever be able to feel truly happy again.

Jenn Baxter wondered the very same thing. During the course of just five years, she endured a series of back-to-back traumas that would change her world forever. The stress of an abusive relationship, both her parents’ deaths, a toxic work environment and years of emotional turmoil finally caught up to her in 2014, when she found herself with advanced adrenal fatigue and barely able to function.

But rather than spiraling downward into a pit of despair, Jenn rose from the ashes with more peace and joy than she’d ever had before.

How did she do it?

By getting back to what really matters.

Following God’s lead, she “stripped down and cleaned up” her life. She let go of her connection to material possessions and downsized to a 160-sq-ft tiny house on wheels. She took control of her health by cleaning up her diet and switching to non-toxic products. And she finally confronted all the emotional baggage that she’d been unknowingly holding onto for years. Then, with a clean house, a clean body and a clean spirit, she set out to make her dreams happen NOW, not later.

Read her raw and inspiring story, then be ready to do the same. Live a F.A.S.T. Life: How Stripping Down & Cleaning Up Gave Me My Life Back gives readers the inspiration and practical tips they need to start living lives that are more Fabulous, Abundant, Simple and maybe even … Tiny.

Melva Henderson | 18 comments My book Ramblings of a Mad Woman, Effervescence from the Soul is a collection of prose, poems, and my thoughts in the way of journal posts throughout a collection of years.

Between the covers of the book one will find a collection of philosophical thoughts, poems, and prose. They’re sort of like the collection of debris found in a bird’s nest before being scattered by life’s seasonal, proverbial storm. It’s always amazing what can be found in a bird’s nest that the creature has gathered in the pursuit of feathering her temporary abode. So are my so called ramblings that some might label as unbalanced, as intense and comical as those thoughts may seem to be.

Just log onto Amazon and call up A Canopy of Stars by Stephen Taylor. If you take up the offer a review is optional, of course. If you decide to write an honest review at Amazon, Goodreads, or anywhere else, I would be very grateful for your time and consideration. Thank you.

The year is 1823, and at the Old Bailey a young man, David Neander stands in the dock on trial for his life. His crime? The theft of half a sheep’s carcass worth a mere 40 shillings. The system is stacked against him for while he is an educated man, he is a Jewish immigrant and speaks little English, is seen as just another piece of London’s low life jetsam to be despatched to the hangman with little ceremony and no one to mourn him.
Yet by chance, in the gallery that day Julia Carmichael, the young, talented daughter of a celebrated lawyer, witnesses his plight. She observes the injustice being inflicted on the accused by an incompetent, prejudiced judge and sees in David Neander what others have failed to see. Determined to help him she delves into his past and uncovers the remarkable journey he has been forced to endure, the privations he has had to overcome and the stinging irony of his being accused of a theft he did not commit. But can she and her father prove his innocence or must they watch him hang.
A Canopy of StarsA Georgian courtroom drama and an adventure story; an unlikely romance and the story of two lives that are changed forever.

It's Important to Hate Americans

"It's Important to Hate Americans" that's the name of my first book actively looking for reviews because What we hate is what we are most alert about. USA is the only country in the world today that is making lives difficult to live. The only life we have.

Synopsis

The book explores how USA has followed a pro-eugenics and racist policy ever since its conception and continues to do so. We and the lands that we hold dear have to extricate themselves and boycott everything American right now. That is why "It's Important to Hate Americans"

See Childish Gambino's Video "This is America" if you need more proof on reading this now.

Cameron Yorke (CameronYorke) | 19 comments Cameron Yorke

Hi, I'm Cameron,and you'll find my official biography in your Author list. On a more personal note though, I'm currently enjoying the sunshine in Gran Canaria, whilst working on my next book which should be ready for publication early June, if I can tear myself away from the beach enough to finish it!

I'm the Author of 'The Chemsex Trilogy' which comprises three books; Chasing the Dragon', 'Candy Flipping', and 'Double Bubble' Based on my own experiences, and many of my friends around me, in the use of Crystalmethamphetamine as recreational drug within the gay community in London. In some ways it was a very difficult series to write, as it was so very personal, but it was also extremely cathartic, giving me a clarity as I wrote it, of all the events that led me down the road I travelled. I'm not proud of the path I chose, or some of the events which unfolded around me, and particularly of where it took me in regard to the law, however in writing these books I hope to provide answers for others who might be contemplating a similar path, insight for those dealing with friends family members or partners indulging in it, but at the same time entertainment for those who have been through it and come out the other end. I'm sure some of the scenarios played out in the books will resonate with each and every one of them as they identify the characters - If I could quote one of my reviewers 'The names and the faces might change, but their behaviour or role in the scenario seldom do'. I hope that whichever category you fall into, you enjoy all three books in the series, as well as the final end game 'The Deported' on which I'm currently working - all about new beginnings and second chances. Do let me know what you think!

Chasing The Dragon: Are You Chem-Friendly?

2015 was the year of the chem-sex revolution amongst the gay scene in London. It seemed the entire population wanted to get ‘High & Horny’, and ‘PnP’ was the priority for weekend entertainment, with young and old alike, afterall, it was ‘just sex’, and relationships were a thing of the past - One either denied their existence entirely, or swore that an open arrangement was the norm. Chasing the Dragon is a portayal of this phenomenon, and explores the use of recreational drugs and the social impact on those who indulged, as well as the wider community, with valuable insight into the machinations of the chem-sex culture, and the wider recreational drug scene of London, and Britain in the 21st century, and proof that the ‘War on Drugs’ has failed.

Candy Flipping

Candyflipping is the sequel to Chasing the Dragon, and continues on the theme of the chem-sex revolution in Britain, exploring the effects of recreational drugs, their impact on the community and the darker realms of self-medication which can rapidly develop into self harm, to address issues of depression, anxiety, and loss of confidence and self-esteem. It also examines the role in which Police and the Court system play in dealing with the symptoms, not the problem, and is a shocking account of a broken society, where the British Governmentís 'War on Drugs' is nothing but a futile attempt at revenue raising, disguised as concern for the welfare of itís citizens.

Double Bubble

Double Bubble is the third in the chem-sex series of books, and is a snapshot into life inside Her Majesty's Prisons, at a time when the British Government's policy on all crime is to Lock em up! It offers first hand accounts on issues such as deaths in custody, gangs, violence, deportation, drugs, from the inside out. It also chronicles the current state of apathy and lack of interest by prison employees, their lack of training and general intelligence in dealing with the symptoms, not the problems, and offers insight into coping strategies by prisoners in a broken system. Abject waste and innefficiency are rife right across the organisation, particularly given the current policy of budget cuts and staff shortages in this era of austerity, and the tax-payer and government are blissfully unaware. Indeed this book shows that the British Penal system is but a small microcosm of British Society, and these issues are indicative of a far wider ranging set of problems within a Backward looking country in general.

It tells a story of a road tip I took in 2005, before smartphones, satnav and in an era when Eastern Europe was just waking up as a tourist destination, so as such it is a snapshot of a period of time, ion an area which has changed dramatically in the past 14 years. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it!

Tales of My Travels: Europe

road trip of epic proportions through Europe from Sweden to Turkey and back, in 2005 when the world was just beginning to rediscover Eastern Europe after the Cold, and Balkan wars. Hilariously funny, sad, scary and outrageous at the same time, it tells a story of friendship, old and new, sex, lies, intrigue, and deception in the world that existed before smartphones, satnavs, and trip advisor, in countries where the language barrier is the least of one's problems!
