Sinopsis

Serpent Kings explores the pervasive role of serpent figures across world history, religion, and diverse cultures. It examines how these symbols, embodying both wisdom and terror, have been linked to power and knowledge since ancient times. Serpents often represented fertility and the cyclical nature of life in early agricultural societies, reflecting humanity's attempts to understand unpredictable natural forces. The book uniquely analyzes recurring themes in serpent mythology, revealing patterns in human thought.

 
The book progresses by first establishing a foundation with primary serpent myths. The following sections then build upon this by analyzing the role of serpent monarchs in antiquity and the use of serpentine imagery as a representation of power. Drawing from archaeological findings, religious texts, and anthropological studies, Serpent Kings connects serpent symbolism to fundamental aspects of human psychology and societal development, demonstrating how ancient perceptions inform contemporary attitudes toward power and the environment.

    The first edition of the 'small ADHD consultation', published in 2014, was originally created to provide my patients with a quick overview of the broad field of ADHD symptoms in adults as summarised as possible. It was important to me to integrate accompanying disorders and therapeutic options such as medication and coaching strategies. It is not uncommon for the underlying ADHD symptoms to be masked by disorders that develop later (such as obsessive thinking, anxiety, panic attacks and addictions). Only abnormalities in childhood, such as dreaminess or motor restlessness with impulsiveness, allow conclusions to be drawn. Patients and friends were kind enough to embellish this book with their contributions, sketches, pictures and poems. The significantly expanded 3rd edition of the 'Little ADHD Consultation' is due to the increased needs and demands of my patients and the new findings concerning ADHD. New topics such as neurofeedback, medication overview, neurobiological aspects and autistic accompanying phenomena as well as legal aspects and cannabis medication have been included. I wish you many A-HA experiences with this expansion.

    We all wonder whether planet Earth has been visited by aliens. Millions of people around the planet have seen them. But very few people can see what is happening on our moon. It is in fact a perfect place for aliens to use as a base for visiting us. Especially because the dark side of the moon cannot be observed by us. 
     
    Could it be that our secretive governments know about them? Has NASA come into contact with them? The fact is astronauts from several countries claim to have seen UFO’s on or near the moon. Even NASA astronauts have claimed in public that there was and is a government cover up. 
     
    So what is the truth? Are there aliens on the moon?

    This story is a chronicle of the year 1968 as seen through the eyes of the author while serving at Takhli Royal Thai Air Force Base in Thailand, supporting the air war in Vietnam. It was an odd juxtaposition, repairing the fire-control systems on F-105s that were making twice-daily bombing runs over North Vietnam, while living in relative comfort and safety. 
     
     
     
    For every combatant in a time of war, there are thousands of men and women serving in support roles. These soldiers, marines, sailors, and airmen are doing their jobs every day to support the overall effort. They are cooks and clerks, logistics experts, truck drivers and administrators, mechanics and technicians, doctors, nurses, dentists, and chaplains of every faith. They may not be getting shot at or shelled, but they are vital to the mission in every sense. 
     
     
     
    They serve on bases at home as well as overseas in nearly every corner of the globe. They deploy and leave their families and loved ones. They miss birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, school plays, football games, weddings, and funerals. They, too, serve their country honorably. This story is dedicated to support personnel serving everywhere, past, and present.
