Opaciphobia and Other Inner Reflections is a collection of inner experiences decades in the making. Inspired by events from the authors childhood, opaciphobia is a word that attempts to capture an inner state of fear: a fear of the unclear. It began with a distorted window by the front door of the author''s childhood home. It evolved into a personal, multifaceted vantage point that longs for resolution in the divine.
"Me-We" Wins is about women discovering who God created them to be, their inner "Me," and improving their lives reflectively. This process involves pulling back the many layers women have developed to hide/protect their "Me" from the potential pain of being vulnerable in their "We" relationships. She is forced to hide her "Me" and yet function daily as a partner of her "We" relationships in families, friendships, careers, marriages, and interactions with God. Each chapter addresses the various issues that may arise in the relationships and the positive versus negative reactions of her "Me." A workbook is included to help you personally connect and explore the details outlined in each chapter. At the onset of the book, we explore who your "Me" is by identifying talents, gifts, and godly desires, as well as the negative distractions interfering with your "Me," evolving into all she was created to become. The focus is on discovering and enjoying your "Me" and, in turn, getting to know God as your creator. This book is a tool for women desiring to live their best life through the self-discovery of their internal, God-given power enabling them to win as "Me" and as a partner in "We."
Fake news is bad enough. We cannot allow ourselves to be buried in fake medicine.This book looks at quackery practiced under the cover of CIM (Complementary and Integrative Medicine). Why? To inform the consumer that there is a better way to spend their health-care dollar. How? By a better understanding of science and the scientific method.A brief summary of the development of science is given, from early Greece, through the Dark Ages, and into the twenty-first century. This history emphasizes that the development of the scientific method originated purely in Western culture, contrary to other interpretations by Islam and the Chinese. It traces the origins of anti-science in the United States. The placebo effect, an essential part of the science of medicine, is clearly defined.The absence of science is documented in twenty-five examples of CIM from acupuncture to homeopathy, from herbal medicine to aromatherapy, from spiritual healing to iridology. The history and the departure from science are emphasized. The weakness of the literature supporting these frauds is cited as are the politics of reimbursement. A section on marijuana stresses the need to take a hard look at the perils of legalization.While researching the cost of unscientific health care (over $40 billion), I discovered quackery embedded in the system (over $100 billion), including fraud in the scientific literature, fraud in the medical profession, in Big Pharma''s pricing of drugs and hospital billing fraud. The extent to which legislatures are influenced by the money pharma spends on campaigns on an annual basis was tabulated. It exposes the weakness of our response to the opioid crisis.This book will be of interest to everyone in the United States interested in the quality of their health care. The aim is not to be all-inclusive but to stimulate national dialogue.
