In every city, girls are trafficked in brothels where the red haze of the neon lights never shut off. Red in the morning. Red at night. Red for the sailor's delight.

Enter Sam Eden and her boyfriend, Mike Carpenter, naive 20-year-olds who have traveled to the volatile country of Burma for a backpacking adventure but find themselves completely ill-prepared for the world they've entered.

To understand how humans react and adapt to economic change we need to study people who live in harsh environments. This audiobook tells the personal stories of humans living in extreme situations, and of the financial infrastructure they create. Here, economies are not concerned with the familiar stock market crashes, housing crises, or banking scandals of the financial pages.

The future of human civilization is uncertain. Mass starvation, the domination and possible extermination of the human race by nanobots that have gone smart, biological drone-swarms which are more than a physical match for humans combined with mobile decontamination units bearing chemical weapons sufficient to wipe out every living thing. These scenarios have been illuminatingly discussed from an analytical framing point of view in books such as “Our Final Invention” or most prominently in Nick Bostrom’s seminal “Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers Solutions". Many people be they ...

Raven is not human. It is, in fact, a member of a species of gentle giants with aspects of both male and female. When it finds a hurt and bedraggled human female lying in the woods, it didn’t know if it could help her but felt it had to try. It did not bargain on falling in love. A Boucher's World novelette.

Many millions of species have existed in Earth’s past. What distinguishes those which survive like humanity and those who don’t survive? And what is it about man’s ability to survive which has made us the dominant mammals on Earth? In this book, we look at the things man has done uniquely to succeed. This includes the use of fire for all of our existence as Home sapiens and much of our history as hominids.

The survival of the human species is, to a great extent, in our hands, or better stated, in our minds. Expansions of the reaches, capabilities, dimensions, and dominions of the human mind and consciousness are indeed within our grasp. Even the notion of expansion begs further exploration now - a highly conscious, intelligently purposeful exploration. On the frontiers of ourselves, we have the option to choose to be conscious and aware of our presences and our options.

Bland spillrorna efter tsunamin i det som nyss var ett paradis, trotsar hon sin sönderslagna kropp i kampen för sina barn och sin man. Hon tvingas finna oanade styrkor inom sig själv och fastän rädslan för en nästa våg ständigt är närvarande, låter hon inte någon, eller något stå i hennes väg.

This new edition of this book includes fewer essays than the original edition, which was too long to be issued in print form at a reasonable price. It has been shortened in order to offer paperback and audiobook editions of essays about space that the author feels are worth preserving in those formats. (The omitted essays and the appendix “Space Quotes to Ponder” will remain available at her website.) Sylvia Engdahl became fascinated by the idea of space travel in 1946, and has believed since the early 1950s that expansion of our species to other worlds is vital to the preservation of ...

In this unique and cutting-edge book, author, clinician, and researcher Dr. Angela Browne-Miller delves into scientific, spiritual, and consciousness information to explain how she has arrived at this innovative understanding of our situation and this new level of survival awareness she presents.
