Change for Good - An Action-Oriented Approach for Businesses to Benefit from Solving the World's Most Urgent Social Problems

Paul Klein

Summary

An action-oriented approach for businesses to solve the world’s most urgent social problems — and benefit from doing so.
		 
More than a year into a global pandemic, profit and shareholder value are no longer the primary metric of business success. Customers, shareholders, and communities are demanding that companies do good, do more, and do better. In Change for Good, Paul Klein shows how companies must move beyond what he calls “corporate social responsibility light” and demonstrate how they can help solve social problems that have been defined as UN Sustainable Development Goals.
		 
Change for Good is a new system for making social change through business that reflects Paul’s experience over the last 35 years. One of the core principles of Change for Good is including people with lived experience of social problems in identifying promising solutions and collaborating to bring these solutions to life. This methodology can create impactful and sustainable social change in society in ways that aren’t possible when executives make decisions in their boardrooms that are intended to impact the lives of vulnerable people.
		 
Through personal experiences, case studies, and practical tools, Change for Good will inspire readers and their organizations to make the shift from a passive social responsibility to taking action to help solve the world’s most pressing social problems.

Types of UFOs Observed in History

Martin K. Ettington

My goal in this book is to show the different types of UFOs reported throughout history and today. 
I’m not trying to prove whether these ships are real or not. I just thought that given the many thousands of sightings of UFOs there should be some commonalities between the sightings. 
Some of the questions I want to answer include: 
Are there any trends in these sightings? 
Is there an evolution in the design of these vehicles over time? 
Are there some common designs over time? 
Also, some of the UFOs sighted are likely fakes or secret projects built by the US government. I tried to show that information too. 
Just due to the number of stars in our galaxy I’m convinced that Aliens exist and have probably visited our planet thousands or even millions of year in the past-in addition to visiting in the present. 
This collection of historical photos, drawings, and descriptions should provide you with a narrative as to how these sightings have changed over time.

Time Waves - How to Spot them...

Michael Mathiesen

What if time isn’t a straight line—but a wave you can ride?
In Time Waves, Michael Mathiesen invites readers on a mind-bending journey through the quantum surf of reality itself. Blending cutting-edge physics, mythic resonance, and visionary storytelling, this book challenges everything we think we know about time, consciousness, and our place in the universe.
Spot the Patterns. Feel the Pull. Catch the Wave.
This book is more than a theory—it’s a call to action. Mathiesen urges readers to become “time surfers,” attuned to the subtle pulses of possibility that ripple through the cosmos. With practical insights and poetic flair, he shows how to:Recognize when you're caught in a destructive trough—and how to paddle out.Amplify constructive interference in relationships, creativity, and decision-making.Use metaphor as a scientific instrument—bridging the gap between intuition and data.Reframe synchronicity as a measurable phenomenon, not mere coincidence.Design your life as a waveform—balancing chaos and coherence, risk and rhythm.
If you’ve ever pondered the nature of time after reading Carlo Rovelli’s The Order of Time, or felt the eerie precision of Jung’s synchronicities, or marveled at gravitational wave detections from LIGO, Time Waves will feel like a homecoming—and a launchpad.
Michael Mathiesen is not just writing—he’s building a wave. With cinematic teasers, tweet bursts, and outreach to space agencies, Time Waves is part of a larger mission to shift how we think, feel, and act in relation to time. Readers are invited to become co-creators, surfers, and storytellers in this unfolding paradigm.

The Demon in the Machine - How...

Paul Davies

What is life? For generations, scientists have struggled to make sense of this fundamental question, for life really does look like magic: even a humble bacterium accomplishes things so dazzling that no human engineer can match it. Huge advances in molecular biology over the past few decades have served only to deepen the mystery. 
 
 
 
In this penetrating and wide-ranging book, world-renowned physicist and science communicator Paul Davies searches for answers in a field so new and fast-moving that it lacks a name; it is a domain where biology, computing, logic, chemistry, quantum physics, and nanotechnology intersect. At the heart of these diverse fields, Davies explains, is the concept of information: a quantity which has the power to unify biology with physics, transform technology and medicine, and force us to fundamentally reconsider what it means to be alive—even illuminating the age-old question of whether we are alone in the universe. 
 
 
 
The Demon in the Machine journeys across an astounding landscape of cutting-edge science. Weaving together cancer and consciousness, two-headed worms and bird navigation, Davies reveals how biological organisms garner and process information to conjure order out of chaos, opening a window onto the secret of life itself.
