The Fliers of Storm-Cross Valley by Kevin Maurice Robinson Pdf

Being afraid to fly wasn't a very good thing at all, especially with a last name like hers. Coming from a long line of Fliers, whose family history was rich with their famous exploits would have made Bianca Marie Cool appear to be a special twelve year old girl. But there was one major problem with being from a family of Fliers, and that was... Bianca was afraid of flying. It was bad enough that her eight and a half year old sister, Nicole Ann, was already an experienced Flier... what made matters worse was that her mom and grandfather would constantly remind her of the importance of her being able to fly. Prophetic visions received by her grandmother, long before she and her younger sister were born, spoke of great things, events in the lives of the two girls which showed them to be destined for fame and glory. But these prophesies could not come about if Bianca never learned to fly.

The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes Pdf

National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

The Neo-Generalist by Kenneth Mikkelsen,Richard Martin Pdf

We live in a world of hyper specialism, losing context and our connection to the surrounding region breaks down. The expertise we valued so highly has served to narrow and shorten our vision. It has blinded us to potential and opportunity. This book argues that there is the need and place for both specialist and the generalist. Currently, it feels the balance is tipped too far towards specialism, which results in too much blinkered decision-making. The authors call for people to develop into generalists. These are people who possess both a breadth and depth of skills, knowledge and experience. These are most definitely not 'jack of all trades, masters of none'. Rather, they are people who have the potential, the attitude and the aptitude to specialise in more than one discipline, and are adept at navigating the digital, networked world we inhabit today.

The Exiled by Carol Mingst Pdf

He was a very long way from home: Six long weeks cooped up in a spaceship left Jared more than ready to use his own wings to fly. But Hector was a busy planeta place of big buildings and bigger bureaucracy. Nothing was simple or quick on this odd world. Jared had come to get his home world designated in the governmental records for that region of space. It was to be set aside for the current population and to give those of the Seven Settlements control over their own world. It had seemed easy enoughan adventure, a lark. But all the information he had received from the crew of the Athena Nike had not prepared him for the things that would happen to him once he submerged himself in the workings of a place so very foreign to his nature. Jared had known it would not be a quick trip, but his adventures on Hector were far different from anything he could possibly have imagined. Now if he could just make it back home in one piece.

Fiction has a special role in the way we relate to each other. Fiction can take us outside of our own experience and give us a small hint of what it's like to be someone else. Speculative fiction - including steampunk - has always been a metaphorical mirror to our own society, allowing us to see ourselves and our behaviors from the outside in ways that we otherwise couldn't. It's not magic. It's the interworking of dozens of finely machined gears. It's the craftswoman adjusting the tension on a spring so it doesn't break. It's the stoker making sure the furnace fires stay burning. It's the conductor collecting tickets, the passengers watching the landscape roll by, the excited child standing next to the engineer who gets to pull the cord and hear the train's steam whistle. It might not be magic, but it's still amazing. Especially with a project like Steampunk Universe, making an anthology of steampunk stories that feature diverse characters who are disabled or aneurotypical.

Skyward by Richard Evelyn Byrd Jr. Pdf

Skyward is as much the memoir of great American explorer Admiral Richard E. Byrd, Jr. as it is a fascinating narrative of America’s early aviation history, much of which Byrd shaped with his explorations as a naval pilot and pioneering scientist. Through the life of Admiral Byrd, we see the seeds of America’s aerial military force, commercial airline travel, and our understanding of the planet’s most remote geographical locations planted. Byrd’s outsized ambition has inspired generations to dare to push technological limits in order to achieve things greater than themselves. Reissued for today’s readers, Admiral Byrd’s classic explorations by land, air, and sea transport us to the farthest reaches of the globe. As companions on Byrd’s journeys, modern audiences experience the polar landscape through Byrd’s own struggles, doubts, revelations, and triumphs and share the excitement of these timeless adventures.
