The book uniquely combines cultural, economic, and ecological perspectives to provide a holistic view.

    I’ve written quite a few books about spirituality and my experiences and beliefs in our abilities to expand our consciousness through spiritual development practices, meditation, and the paranormal. 
    This book includes my experiences with paranormal abilities acquired from the spiritual development process and different enlightenment experiences. 
    Having been raised in a technical family and gone to engineering school my perspective is pretty unique since I developed both traditional technical knowledge of the world while I was also going through the spiritual development and enlightenment process. 
    There are many engineers and scientists who are also religious but I’ve found that technical people who are as deeply into spiritual enlightenment practices and paranormal experiences are pretty rare. 
    What I’ve found is that this dual background has given me more clarity about the world we live in and better objectivity in many cases regarding strange or unusual phenomena. 
    The theme of this book is to review how I went through this dual track system of learning in my life to become both a traditional engineer and to have fairly adept knowledge of spiritual and paranormal experiences.

    A raw, often wry, memoir of mothers, mysteries, and miracles. 
    Surrendered at birth in a closed adoption, Candi Byrne's biology and ethnicity are a secret. The impending arrival of her first grandchild ignites an urgency to identify potential genetic time bombs and confirm her ancestry. Due to arcane privacy laws, Candi is repeatedly denied access to the one person who could provide that information--her biological mother. 
    After years of failed attempts, she resigns herself to never learning the truth about her roots; that is, until her ninety-year-old Aunt Delores has a vision and insists Candi resume efforts to find her birth family. Candi is gobsmacked when an internet search she's performed thousands of times before suddenly reveals her birth mother's identity. Within hours, she ends up on the doorstep of her birth mother--a place she's sworn never to visit. 
    After a series of guilt-driven interactions with "Those People," as she refers to her maternal birth family, Candi terminates contact. Although the reunion proves disastrous, it opens her eyes to truths about her relationship with her adoptive mother, Delphine. Though their relationship was difficult and contentious during Delphine's life, a series of miraculous experiences after her death guides Candi home to herself--where, she learns, she has belonged all along.

    The Eastern Han Dynasty: A History of China, PART ONE takes you on an unforgettable journey through one of China's most transformative eras. Once fractured by war, the Han Empire finds hope in Liu Xiu—a noble who rises through chaos to become Emperor Guangwu of Han. But claiming the throne is only the beginning. To rebuild an empire torn apart, he must outmaneuver rivals, crush rebellions, and restore order. 
    From the fall of the Chimei Army to the eruption of the Three Rebellions, Liu Xiu's reign is marked by endless trials. Allies become threats, and loyalty is tested—especially for Wei Xiao, a trusted officer with dangerous ambitions. Meanwhile, the empire expands into Longyou and sets its sights on resource-rich Shu, where political intrigue runs deep. 
    Military legends like General Ma Yuan rise, shaping China's future with brilliant campaigns. As peace returns, loyal ministers help rebuild the government. But power shifts within the court, and when the crown prince unexpectedly steps down, the influential Yin Family begins to dominate the throne's inner circle. 
    A new era begins with Emperor Ming, who faces his own battles—reforms, alliances, and unrest. Yet Han is no longer limited by borders. Ban Chao’s bold expeditions to the Western Regions spark a wave of imperial ambition, paving the way for the rise of a new conqueror who will take Han’s influence farther than ever before. 
    This is not just a chronicle of events—it's a sweeping epic of ambition, war, strategy, and legacy. If you’re drawn to tales of empire-building, battlefield brilliance, and court intrigue, The Eastern Han Dynasty: Part One is a journey you won’t want to miss.
