Imagine if someone were to find canisters of plutonium in their backyard! Would they turn it into gold by selling it to countries now spending billions to acquire nuclear weapons? Or might they deploy it to further a political agenda? Would the American government finally curb its environmental excesses to avoid a Nagasaki in Nebraska? This action-packed novel explores these questions, taking the reader on a fastpaced ride through the western half of the United States as authorities desperately strive to prevent the most powerful weapon known to man from being used on its innocent citizens.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two ten-year old boys and a nine-year old girl meet in Denver during the 1952 Huckleberry Finn fishing contest at Washington Park. They become fast friends and soon discover a cave in a nearby swamp that becomes the focal point for a summer of adventure that ends with a tragedy and a miracle! The three friends go their separate ways in life but reconnect, again in Denver, thirty-three years later. The girl, now a woman, hears Dr. Morris Massey advance the thesis: What you are is where you were when you were ten. She shares this concept with her old friends at their reunion and, as their lives intertwine again, they experience an even worse tragedy and a greater miracle! This exciting and fast-paced tale serves to validate Masseys theory for the reader. It also prompts worthwhile introspection, not only of ones own life, but the lives of those ten-year olds who may come under our influence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cramer provides a window into the world of radical environmentalism and the political process. He examines how deep ecology evolved, how its ideas influence our lives, and how it impacts our laws. The book begins with an overview of deep ecology and traces its history in American political thought. Cramer then looks at the tactics employed by radical environmentalists and the relationship formed between activists and their political counterparts. He explains the difference between what deep ecology ultimately wants and what it strives for on a daily basis. Federal environmental legislation and congressional testimony are analyzed for trends, and media coverage of radical environmentalism is also examined. Cramer provides the first comprehensive look at the impact of deep ecology and radical environmentalism on American environmental politics and law. This book will be invaluable to scholars and researchers of contemporary American politics and law, environmental studies, and the media.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unabomber was America's most wanted man, responsible for sixteen bombings in as many years, killing 3 and injuring 23 more. It took the FBI nearly 18 years before they were able to catch him and he was identified as Theodore J. Kaczynski. It was in 1995 when the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski first broke his silence, following an unprecedented deal. He would call off his one-man war on techno-industrial society if the media would publish his reasons for it. With the technocracy of America held hostage, the media could only comply. When published, the Unabomber came across as a forceful yet an articulate advocate of primitivism, not the crazed serial killer of the FBI's personality profilers. His radical critique of techno-industrial civilisation, Industrial Society And Its Future, captured the imagination of many of America's public that can now see that technology and liberty are not always compatible.Despite Ted's crimes, in today's modern age of social media and technological boom, his manifesto could carry a much stronger message.
