Odd book
[...]
The essay seemed to be a chapter of this book, but, on the contrary, despite the title of the book, there is no reference to the question posed in the title.

The book is a rambling group of random questions ranging from "Do dogs and cats have souls?" to "Who was Nicholas Roerich?"It seems to have been written by someone with an incomplete grasp of English.Nor is the spelling any good.There apparently was no one to proofread it.

On the other hand, there are patches of good insights.My feeling about religion has always been that the founders of the religions had a moment of insight into the nature of the universe, and that religions became so dangerous because the followers only half understood what they were being told.This book would say that is because each person must find his own way to the truth.The distortions and misunderstandings of followers are compounded with each generation.

For this reason, I recommend the book despite its limitations.Some of this man's insights seem right on. ... Read more

Book Description
This up-to-date electronic book on CD-ROM provides the best collection available anywhere of official Federal government information and documents on the subject of amputees and prosthetic limbs. This CD-ROM uses next-generation search technology that allows complete indexing and makes all files on the disc fully searchable. For patients, practical information is provided in clearly written patient education documents. For medical professionals, doctor reference tools and texts have detailed technical information and clinical background material.

This thoroughly researched collection presents vital information from many authoritative sources: Food and Drug Administration (FDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Veterans Affairs Department (VA).

In addition, as a bonus we have included an encyclopedic collection of general medical and health documents - thousands of pages with extensive material from the CDC and NIH on hundreds of diseases and health topics from A to Z, along with FDA drug and medical publications, government consumer healthcare tips, disease prevention programs, dietary guidelines, and travelers' health information. Since navigating the Internet to find additional non-governmental medical information can be confusing, we've also provided our exclusive "Guide to Leading Medical Websites" with updated links to 73 of the best sites for medical information! By using weblinks on the CD-ROM, you can quickly check for the latest clinical updates directly from the government.

This CD-ROM has over 31,000 pages reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software and Reader software is included. Advanced search and indexing features are built into our reproduction, providing a complete full-text index. This enables the user to search all the files on the disk at one time for words or phrases using just one search command! The Acrobat cataloging technology adds enormous value and uncommon functionality to this impressive collection of government documents and material. There is no other reference that is as fast, convenient, comprehensive, and portable!

Our CD-ROMs are privately-compiled collections of official public domain U.S. government files and documents - they are not produced by the federal government. They are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work, utilizing the benefits of the Acrobat format to uniformly present thousands of pages that can be rapidly reviewed or printed without untold hours of tedious searching and downloading. This book-on-a-disc makes a superb reference work and educational tool for patients and their families, physicians, and other medical professionals. (Information on this CD-ROM is NOT a substitute for professional medical advice; of course, readers are urged to consult with a professional health care provider for any suspected illness.) ...
