Sinopse

Ever wondered what it takes to be superhuman? This book spills the secrets! Blueprints of the Extraordinary: The Science, Strategy, and Sacrifice Behind Superhuman Achievement is your ticket to understanding jaw-dropping feats. It’s packed with stories of real people doing unreal things. Think marathoners smashing time barriers. Memory champs recalling insane word lists. Speedcubers solving Rubik’s Cubes in seconds. Sword swallowers defying physics. It’s all here. The book hops across domains—physical, mental, creative. You’ll meet record-breakers like Eliud Kipchoge and Aaryan Shukla. Each chapter unpacks a different skill. How do they train? What’s the science? It digs into grit and strategy. It even explores the messy stuff—doping, burnout, isolation. Short, punchy case studies keep it lively. You’ll see how these feats reshape what we think humans can do. It’s a wild ride through the edges of possibility.

Why pick this book? It’s not just hero worship—it’s a deep dive with a twist. Other books might cheerlead or list stats, but this one cracks open the "how" and "why." It blends hardcore science with gripping tales. You’ll get the physiology of endurance, the psychology of resilience, and the ethics of pushing limits. No fluff—just facts and fascinating questions. What makes a memory champ tick? How does Kipchoge run so fast without breaking? It tackles big ideas like gene editing and AI’s future role. Plus, it’s honest about the costs—mental strain, ethical gray zones, the loneliness of greatness. If you’re curious about human potential, this book’s your edge. It’s for athletes, thinkers, or anyone who loves a good “wow” moment. Fresh, bold, and grounded in reality, it stands out from the crowd.

Corrie ten Boom

Cornelia Arnolda Johanna "Corrie" ten Boom (April 15, 1892 - April 15, 1983) was a Dutch watchmaker who worked with her father Casper and other family members to help, reportedly, 800 Jews escape the Nazi Holocaust during World War II by hiding them in their home. Eventually, the family was caught, and ten Boom was arrested and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp, but released after ten months due to a clerical error. Later in life, ten Boom wrote, "The Hiding Place," a biography that recounts the story of her family's efforts and how she was able to find hope while imprisoned at the concentration camp. It was later made in to a movie. The following is part one of a speech ten Boom gave called, Authority Over Demons.

NEW KALISHNIKOVS THE - AK-47 -...

Mike Blake

THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
effectiveness. 
In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact. 
* Absolutely NO A.I. has been used in the creation of this Poem.

Parascientific Revolutions - The...

Derek Lee

Telepathy, clairvoyance, precognition, and telekinesis: these attributes of the paranormal mind are widely dismissed as nonsense, but what can an exploration of such pseudoscientific phenomena tell us about accepted scientific and cultural thought? In Parascientific Revolutions, Derek Lee traces the evolution of psi epistemologies across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries to uncover how these ideas have migrated into scientific fields such as quantum physics and neurology, as well as diverse literary genres, including science fiction, ethnic literature, and even government training manuals. 
 
Lee introduces the groundbreaking concept of "parascience," a dynamic cultural space where ideas rejected by the scientific establishment blend with alternative strains of literary, mythic, and philosophical thought to regenerate and return to mainstream discourse. From early modernist works by James Joyce to postwar speculative fiction by Philip K. Dick to ethnofuturist narratives by Ruth Ozeki, Parascientific Revolutions demonstrates how cultural and intellectual currents reshape paranormal ideas over time. Examining psychic surveillance programs like Project Stargate and bizarre particles of extrasensory perception such as the psitron, Lee illustrates the ways paranormal concepts persist and evolve to influence culture.
