Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - I'll Sing My Songs Again is the biography of Ronnie Besaw Fuller, who grew up in a tiny, poor American Indian community in Northeastern Wisconsin. He was sick for much of his youth, and the only real interest he had was playing the guitar and singing. Realizing the extraordinary talent that Ronnie had, his father took him to talent contests around the area. In 1953, at the age of seven, he performed on television, and that was before they even had one for their home. Ronnie performed with many bands around the Midwest and in 1969, while in Las Vegas, an important person heard two of his recordings. Ronnie signed a seven-year contract to perform on-stage as a musician.In 1976, Ronnie was diagnosed with Ankylasing Spondylitis. He returned to Wisconsin to deal with it. Doctors told him that he had about five years to live. He began treatment at a nearby clinic. For nearly ten years he was given an enormous amount of medications. The last several years the pill count got up to 80 pills per day. Then, after he crashed, they took him off of the medications without a detox program. In 1992, he filed a 50 million-dollar lawsuit for medical malpractice. The way the court case was handled is unprecedented and unbelievable for a court case that was handled in the United States of America. What happened to Ronnie Besaw Fuller should never happen to anyone else in this country.During his 27 years of disability, Ronnie Fuller has recorded 35 songs and has written another 124 songs that are still to be recorded. His latest CD, 'Message From America' is getting a lot of attention. Many people in the business believe Ronnie is one of the best songwriters of his time.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The Ten Assumptions of Science presents the logically coherent set of assumptions destined to define 21st century scientific philosophy. Glenn Borchardt first explains why assumptions and not absolutes are necessary for scientific thinking. By exploring the opposition between deterministic and indeterministic views, he clearly shows how critical choices among underlying assumptions either clarify or muddle scientific analysis.He shows how customary mixtures of deterministic and indeterministic assumptions are responsible for the current confusion in modern physics. According to Dr. Borchardt, only rare physicists and philosophers have an inkling of the nature of time, space, energy, and matter. The need for reassessing our fundamental assumptions is indicated by the present sorry state of cosmology. Otherwise intelligent scientists promulgate the idea that the universe expanded from a tiny 'singularity' smaller than the period at the end of this sentence. At the very least, adherence to Borchardt's assumptions will contribute to the rejection of the 'Big Bang Theory,' which has surpassed the flat Earth theory as the greatest embarrassment to serious thinkers everywhere.Although the book makes an excellent supplement to college courses in scientific philosophy, it is an astounding eye-opener for the educated reader with an interest in science and philosophy.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - They came from everywhere, mostly as immigrant orphans who lived through the modern world's first ghastly genocide, convinced they were the very few left who must save their heritage. Mitchnapert tells how Armenian churches, schools and organizations became established in Rhode Island and about the most difficult political crisis that split the community for fifty years, caused by the assassination of an Archbishop in another state. Mitchnapert follows the Armenians as they assimilate into the American mainstream, providing the reader a lucid and rare historical examination of what Armenians in Rhode Island accomplished and how they gained such notoriety in their Diaspora.The 'street stories' and historical essays of past events provide much factual evidence and familiarity to those who lived through the more recent periods. The early business scene and descriptions of neighborhoods where Armenians lived are recounted. Complex issues of how they are surviving the ethnic 'melting pot' syndrome, both present and in the future are examined as second and third generation Armenian Americans become the community's new decision makers. Included is a 'Who's Who' cross-section of Armenians who live and work in the state and those who moved elsewhere but still retain their Rhode Island roots.…
