Lazantis Rising
Author: Ursula Dyck
Publisher: FriesenPress
ISBN: 103913906X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
Ushaya Landau, sixty-four and recently retired from Trends & Styles magazine company, is looking forward to finally having time to visit her kids, see friends, and relish her gardens...until she is visited by a host of alien titans from the world of Lazantis. These creatures give her the ability to gift others with superpowers—and change her life forever. Armed with her new ability and the responsibility that comes with it, Ushaya decides to impart powers on eighteen world leaders. But if she hopes having powers will transform the way politics works, she is sorely mistaken. This satirical, allegorical fantasy is nothing short of a political parody, following Ushaya and the world leaders through trade negotiations, politics, social issues, and environmental concerns. When they discover that there is more to these benevolent aliens than meets the eye, will they be able to put their petty differences aside and work together to save the world?

The Lost Book of Enki
Author: Zecharia Sitchin
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1591439469
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
The companion volume to The Earth Chronicles series that reveals the identity of mankind’s ancient gods • Explains why these “gods” from Nibiru, the Anunnaki, genetically engineered Homo sapiens, gave Earthlings civilization, and promised to return • 30,000 sold in hardcover Zecharia Sitchin’s bestselling series The Earth Chronicles provided humanity’s side of the story concerning our origins at the hands of the Anunnaki, “those who from heaven to earth came.” In The Lost Book of Enki we now view this saga from the perspective of Lord Enki, an Anunnaki leader revered in antiquity as a god, who tells the story of these extraterrestrials’ arrival on Earth from the planet Nibiru. In his previous works Sitchin compiled the complete story of the Anunnaki’s impact on human civilization from fragments scattered throughout Sumerian, Akkadian, Babylonian, Assyrian, Hittite, Egyptian, Canaanite, and Hebrew sources. Missing from these accounts, however, was the perspective of the Anunnaki themselves. What was life like on their own planet? What motives propelled them to settle on Earth--and what drove them from their new home? Convinced of the existence of a lost book that held the answers to these questions, the author began his search for evidence. Through exhaustive research of primary sources, he has here re-created tales as the memoirs of Enki, the leader of these first “astronauts.” What takes shape is the story of a world of mounting tensions, deep rivalries, and sophisticated scientific knowledge that is only today being confirmed. An epic tale of gods and men unfolds, challenging every assumption we hold about our past and our future.

Healing in Community
Author: Susan J. Rasmussen
Publisher: Praeger
ISBN:
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Exploring the multiple communities of healing among the Tuareg people of Niger, this work examines the beliefs and practices that surround healing and the quest for medicine. In studying ideals of healing that face challenges from wider political and economic forces, the author enables us to understand these culturally and historically constructed processes. This leads us to comprehend how many Tuareg construct and deconstruct local notions of medicine and healers, how patients cope with current problems in health care, and more broadly, how medical knowledge is constructed in anthropology and ethnography. Rasmussen reveals new perspectives on healing in systems of power and symbolism, bridging interpretive cultural and political economy approaches. This book explores the consequences and implications of the idea that in order to obtain medicine, one must submit to authority, but proceeds beyond merely demonstrating this idea, already largely a truism in anthropology. The Tuareg data show how local residents are not passive victims, but rather active agents in responding to and resisting authority structures of medicine and medical knowledge.
