Sam, a brilliant scientist, invents a generator out of his garage that creates electricity from pressure. This device ends up replacing fossil fuels as Sam continues to invent world advancing devices while building a corporate empire. One of Sam’s inventions initiates space travel, which leads to the discovery of another inhabited planet. Sam makes first-contact with the inhabited planet and divulges a revelation regarding Christianity. Sam discovers other inhabited planets, one of which has similar backgrounds, and others display evil intent. Sam returns to the first inhabited planet, saves the world from an asteroid and destruction from quakes, and realizes this planet is going through the tribulation of end times. Christ returns for a 2nd visit. Sam meets Christ and their goals become intertwined. Sam invents a space-time traveling vessel and visits Christ at different time-lines of inhabited worlds witnessing His tribulations and successes. During a first-visit of Christ, Sam is captured with Christ and is forced to make a life or death decision. This is a potpourri of ‘Steve Jobs,’ ‘Contact,’ and ‘Left Behind’ that exemplifies true Christian science fiction. Adults, and young adults who love science-fiction, or Christian fiction, will adore this sci-fi action thriller.

Reduced production of DHEA associated with the diseases that accompany aging has led to its use as a nutritional supplement for antiaging, metabolic support, and other purposes. While animal studies have clearly shown substantial benefits of DHEA in combating various disease states, the effect of low levels of DHEA in humans is less established, and the mechanisms of action and potential involvement in illnesses remain unclear. DHEA in Human Health and Aging reviews the past ten years of research into this hormone and explores its potential for future study. With contributions from a cadre of international experts, this volume examines: The biology of DHEA relevant to health in humans Areas of potential clinical importance concerning low levels of DHEA related to age or physiological change Prevention as well as treatment of various human disease states by changing DHEA levels The use of DHEA levels in predicting the risk of disease The role of DHEA in diabetes, fitness, infectious disease, cancer, AIDS, bone health, cardiovascular diseases, autism, and mental health Animal models and their relation to studies done on humans The effects of loss of adrenal gland function, the subsequent reduction in DHEA production, and its replacement as therapy Adverse effects in DHEA-supplemented women Mechanisms of action of DHEA in prostate and ovarian health, vascular modification, stress, memory, aggression, and Alzheimer’s disease Covering a wide range of topics, the book is compiled from contributions of experts who have each studied some aspect of DHEA and human or animal health or disease. Every chapter is self-contained, allowing for focused study on individual topics. Edited by one of the leading experts in the field of nutrition, the book presents a compelling view of the state of the science in DHEA.

Life with Max Danger is never dull— as all readers of the first, best-selling volume of his adventures as an expatriate in Tokyo will know. Somehow he muddles his way from one baffling episode in the on-going struggle with the "Japanese economic-animal kingdom" to another. And he miraculously stays a half-step ahead in the series of events that has swept him along through the pages of the Tokyo Weekender fortnightly for past three and a half years. "Mr. Collins is a funny writer with a knack for putting his finger exactly what it is that makes Japan bewildering, enduring, amusing inspiring, frustrating and, most of the time, captivating for many of its foreign guest." —The New York Times Review of Books "The stories are well written, neither unfair nor unkind and the humor is just about universal. This is a book of entertainment with an underlying fondness for what laughs at" —The Japan Times "If you are one of those people who feel inundated by the proliferation of how-to-do-business-in-Japan books, here's a chance to learn the same lessons by negative example and have belly laughs all the while" —The Asian Wall Street Journal "Max Danger is wondrously funny, friendly book." —Mainichi Daily News
