Electroculture

Justin Christofleau

In the 1920s, Justin Christofleau revolutionized agriculture with his innovative system of electroculture. This groundbreaking technique not only significantly increased crop yields (up to 200%) without relying on any chemical fertilizers, but it also effectively prevented diseases, rejuvenated plants, improved seed germination, accelerated crop growth, and demonstrated exceptional suitability for drought-stricken regions. 
In his comprehensive book, Justin Christofleau meticulously explained the inner workings of his electroculture system, accompanied by detailed schematics and illustrative pictures. His step-by-step guide made it accessible to farmers, gardeners, agronomists, students, and anyone passionate about food, health, and the environment. 
Today, nearly a century later, we are thrilled to reintroduce this valuable information to the world. Our mission is to disseminate this knowledge far and wide, empowering individuals and communities to implement eco-friendly and sustainable agricultural practices. By embracing Justin Christofleau's electroculture system, we can usher in a new era of farming that not only enhances crop productivity but also contributes to a healthier planet for future generations. Let us join hands in preserving this time-honored wisdom and making our world a greener, more abundant place.

Six Not-So-Easy Pieces -...

Richard P. Feynman

Learn about Einstein's theory of relativity from a physics Nobel laureate and "one of the greatest minds of the twentieth century" (New York Review of Books) in six memorable lessons It was Richard Feynman's outrageous and scintillating method of teaching that earned him legendary status among students and professors of physics. From 1961 to 1963, Feynman delivered a series of lectures at the California Institute of Technology that revolutionized the teaching of physics. In Six Not-So-Easy Pieces, taken from these famous Lectures on Physics, Feynman delves into one of the most revolutionary discoveries in twentieth-century physics: Einstein's theory of relativity. The idea that the flow of time is not a constant, that the mass of an object depends on its velocity, and that the speed of light is a constant no matter what the motion of the observer, at first seemed shocking to scientists and laymen alike. But as Feynman shows, these tricky ideas are not merely dry principles of physics, but things of beauty and elegance. No one — not even Einstein himself — explained these difficult, anti-intuitive concepts more clearly, or with more verve and gusto, than Feynman. Filled with wonderful examples and clever illustrations, Six Not-So-Easy Pieces is the ideal introduction to the fundamentals of physics by one of the most admired and accessible physicists of all time. “There is no better explanation for the scientifically literate layman.” –Washington Post Book World

In Search of the Old Ones - An...

Anthony D. Fredericks

Ancient trees stand as sentinels against all odds while Earth and its people have changed around them. Award-winning author Anthony D. Fredericks examines their awe-inspiring longevity and evolutionary intelligence, drawing on expert interviews, scientific research, and a remarkable reverence for the environment.

Fredericks focuses on ten of the oldest trees in the United States, ranging from the 1,200-year-old Seven Sisters Oak, a Southern icon draped in Spanish moss that has survived several hurricanes, to the Palmer’s Oak in Southern California that has cloned itself for 13,000 years to stay alive. Other trees include bristlecone pines, regarded as some of the oldest trees in the world, the quaking aspen known as Pando with more than 45,000 identical branches, the Bennett Juniper that grows on land heavily glaciated by the last ice age, and sequoias, the world’s largest trees. Each tree profile opens with time travel stories that provide global historical context and explore the geography at the time when the tree took root.

In present day, Fredericks walks among many of the trees so that readers may too. His immersive perspective captures the trees’ grandeur and sage presence while exploring the science behind their resilience.

A tree that’s lived more than 1,000 years is living archaeology—a tangible connection between the planet’s past and present that helps us better understand its future. Fredericks investigates these extended lifespans and their implications on ecology and humanity. In Search of the Old Ones marvels at thecomplexity of roots, the determination of growth, and the wisdom of forests.

Beneath spreading canopies, readers will experience the strength and magnificence of the country’s most wondrous trees.
