The big bang cosmology and its standing questions are briefly described in the book at most popular level. Eugene Savov tackles the problems of infinity, perception, space and time. He offers a pattern for the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction and then he makes a miraculous jump from this pattern into the structure of the universe. Afterwards Savov reveals an amazing world where everybody comes from its discovered source. The principle of economy says to avoid the vanity of doing with more what can be done with less. This principle is followed in the author's quest for a simpler and clearer picture of the universe. The suggested theory of interaction explains the origin of life and consciousness and also offers unexpected answers to many hard problems and puzzling observations.
Scientists and laymen will find the ideas of the theory of interaction attractive and rewarding. This book is a must for everybody sensitive of the enigmas of the space bodies, life and consciousness.

This book should be the standard text of a course in critical thinking taught in every high school in this country. The citizens of the United States need a book like this as a way of teaching people how to sort out the deluge of opinion and cant that spews out of every orifice of the media. Somebody please get this book back into print!

This is the true use of critical thinking written by a political scientist. It presents a down to earth practical application of critical thinking. The type of thinking we all should use to make inportant choices.

Mr. Peterson is so great at modernizing the words of Paul. As a result of reading this book, it would be difficult to misunderstand the truth intended in Paul's letter to the Galatians throughout the centuries. These pages exemplify freedom upon freedom. Truly, I believe Mr. Peterson is one of the best Christian authors of our time.

Peterson develops his devotional commentary around the relevant central theme in Galatians of FREEDOM. Contains simple and powerful insights to aid any who feel pressured to conform to external religious standards in order to find acceptance with God or the religious community. Peterson delivers with conviction and passion. Full of excellent illustrations and applications. An aid both to understanding each passage and flow of this Bible book (notable are his well thought out chapter divisions and contemporary textual paraphrase), but also grasping and applying its central theme. Very readable.
My copy is well worn for my frequent return trips. Buy it! You won't be disappointed.

Ellis Rivkin has written a book that confronts head-on the erroneous perception that the Jews crucified Jesus. This would be a surprise to most Christians. It was to me. With a reasoned and enlightened style, Rivkin takes us back to the historical, religious and political context of the New Testament, with special analysis of what it was like to be an observant Jew living in Israel under total Roman domination at a time when Jews, as today, were doctrinally divided on key interpretations of Scripture, such as the resurrection from the dead, temple worship, and messiah. Essentially what Rivkin does for us is to provide the vital historial, religious, and political context to the New Testament (NT) narratives, a context that is missing or out of focus for most Christians, who, wanting to focus mainly on the Gospel message, also absorb the palpable anti-Jewish tone throughout the narratives. Rivkin points out repeatedly that the anti-Jewish tone must be understood in the right context and cannot be construed as being anti-semitic in intent or interpreted as some kind of justication for the Christ-killer libel that has been propagated against Jews for centuries. In other words, for Christians, there is no justification based on NT Scripture that the Jews crucified Jesus; and, for Jews, there is no justification for slandering the writers of the NT by saying that they hated the Jewish people and thereby have spread their presumed hatred to the world through the NT Gospels, Letters, and histories. There is much more to this book, and it is worth the inexpensive price. It should be read by itself for the analysis and style, although it is repetitive in places because it is apparently an edited compilation of speeches by the author on the topic of Christian anti-semitism. An if any Christian doubts the extent of Christian anti-semitism in Church history and today, let him or her also read another seminal title, "The Anguish of the Jews" by the eminent and scholarly priest-author Edward Flannery, who died in 10/98 in his 80's. These books deal with a topic that is as current as today's headlines, on an issue that is at the heart of peace and justice in the world today, and at the heart the prophetic stories in the Bible. Importantly, Rivkin's book can give Jews and Christians another reason to understand and even trust each other a little bit more because of their common heritage and their G-d, in spite of doctrinal differences.

The author uses a unique style of analysis to bring new meaning to the documents and events we have read about for years. His understanding of the need for adaptation of social organism, imitation of structure and the need occasionaly in the crisis of survival to mutate old belief is crucial to an understanding of both historical Judaism and the subsequent development of Judaism's most powerful idea: monotheism. The reader will under stand all of historical religious development when the central question of religious history is kept in the foreground: How do we explain that the one God of the universe will take care of the covenant that was revealed to Abraham. Each stage of faith is a result of any answer to that question.

When Men Play God: The Fallacy of Capital Punishment

I loved this book it will make all pro-capital punishment people think otherwise immediately...what a beautifully written book...ive never seen anything like it...one word...magnifescent.If there was a sixth star this book would definately get it.

The idea is that the death penalty does not deter crime.Countries such as Sweden, Netherlands, Denmark, Switzerland, and Belgium have not carried out executions since the early part of the century, yet these countries have not experienced a rise in crime rates

This beautiful classic nursery rhyme by Eugene Field has comforted children off to sleep for generations and has endured as a favorite for good reason. The lovely, peaceful verse sings to us of a river of crystal light, a sea of dew, twinkling foam, nets of silver and gold, a moon that laughs and a wind that ruffles the waves. The illustrations that Johanna Westerman has supplied are the perfect compliment to this treasured story and are executed in watercolors using mostly sea green, blue and torquoise to create a moonlit vision of dreamland as the three children, Wynken, Blynken and Nod, set sail with their cat in a charming boat shaped like a wooden shoe. This is a soothing and gentle bedtime story and I highly recommend it.

My father used to recite this poem to my sister and I all the time. It's truly a beautiful poem that can still bring a sense of tranquility. This version is beautifully illustrated. I bought it for my nephew when he was a baby and since he was about 6 months, he was enthralled by the pictures.

Twenty years on I remember this book well. I read it in the early eighties. The word pictures the book painted of previously happy people madly desiring encyclopaedias; and happy haitian locals relaxing on the beach while northerners slaved away working has been with me ever since. I remember reading sections twice because it was such an eye opener to me. I had never heard of cargo culture before. A great read. Every shopaholic should read it! For me it was like discovering body language or seeing myself in a mirror for the first time. Never again would I be taken for a ride by a salesman. Now that I have nothing I am happy and I understand why. Highly recommended. Thanks Eugene.

The drawn SINGULARITY FREE cyclic behavior of the universe is revealed from thought experiments and qualitative considerations. The proposed "firework universe" beginning and unfolding is confirmed by the found normal galaxies at the fringes of the observable universe. These most distant space objects have to be older than the big bang universe because it takes too much time for their light to reach the earth. So less than enough time after the big bang is left for these galaxies to form.
The book brims with discoveries and it is also entertaining with strange metaphors and conjectures. The described findings will shake even the most skeptic minds.
I recommend Eugene Savov's Theory of Interaction to scientists, non-scientists and everyone puzzled by the conundrums, meaning and working of the universe and its inquisitive observer.
