Sinopse

This book is a diverse read offering chapters covering multiple subjects, but all linked into the same theme. It explores many of the things we have been misinformed about in mainstream media, education and religion.
A chapter by chapter in depth look at various subjects that challenge what we think we know.
It ultimately proposes an alternative way of thinking, and assessing what we have all been informed of through different platforms.
The book explores the author and some of the key things that have affected his life, guiding him to this point now where he wants to share some of his experiences. This includes his love of spirituality and the guidance that has been provided to him throughout his life.
It's an often-humorous story with honest snippets from youth through to adulthood. It explores all the good and bad aspects of the human experience and his acceptance that it is all part of the journey.
The second chapter covers our recent technological boom. This explores the authors thoughts on how we have progressed so quickly over the last 100 years with a thought-provoking challenge as an explanation.
A look at our history and all the many holes in what we have been informed about through education and religion, that frankly do not hold up now with science- throwing curve balls into our previous understanding of our past. The chapter covers such things as structural anomalies around the world, our true origins and the various differing species of humanity that have occupied this planet, and many more issues the author has found through his investigations.
Through Government disclosure and personal accounts, the next chapter looks at the subject of 'are we alone in this universe'?
Starting way back in history and finishing right up to date it looks at the overwhelming evidence that would suggest we are not alone, from witness reports, abduction cases to crop circles. This chapter provides some compelling and fact-based evidence to support the authors ideas.
Following on from the previous chapter the author looks at our planet and its place in the universe, covering the mind-boggling numbers that are attached to the incredible size of the known universe, and our tiny insignificant place within it. It further highlights the facts presented in the previous chapter that discusses are we truly alone in a universe that is difficult to comprehend with its true and enormous size.
Moving away from historical information the author comes right up to date with a chapter about the modern world. He questions that have we really got it right? , and has life truly improved with all the stress and mental health issues being highlighted these days.
An example being emails. Emails were meant to make life quicker and easier, yet in reality they have had a negative effect. Regardless of whether you work in an office or a building site, you have to factor into your daily life time to look at and respond to emails. It's something twenty-five years ago did not exist, but the world still worked, giving us something else to factor into what is not enough time in most people's day. It was meant to improve and ease our existence, but does it?
The final chapter tidies up other subjects missed in the book that would be discussed later, plus some detailed spiritual experience's the author has had through his life that he wanted to share.
This book although is deep and meaningful, it is none the less easy to read and follow and certainly thought provoking.
It is a most enjoyable and recommended read.

    City Livability - Enhancing...

    City livability refers to the quality of life experienced by individuals living in urban areas. It encompasses a wide range of factors that contribute to the overall well-being of urban residents, from physical infrastructure to social, economic, and environmental conditions. The livability of a city is shaped by its ability to provide access to essential services, promote a sense of community, ensure safety, and foster opportunities for growth and development. It is a reflection of how well a city meets the needs of its inhabitants, both in terms of their immediate surroundings and their broader quality of life. 
    At its core, livability is about the balance between convenience, comfort, and sustainability. In urban environments, where high population densities often lead to challenges such as congestion, pollution, and inequality, creating a livable city is crucial for ensuring that residents not only survive but thrive. It is not just about basic services such as healthcare, education, and transportation but also about creating spaces where people can connect, engage with their surroundings, and find opportunities for personal and professional fulfillment. 
    The concept of city livability is also deeply intertwined with urban planning and design. How a city is structured – its streets, buildings, parks, and neighborhoods – directly impacts its livability. A well-planned city can promote walkability, offer green spaces for recreation, reduce noise and air pollution, and ensure efficient access to transportation networks. Conversely, poorly designed cities may suffer from overcrowded and polluted areas, limited green spaces, and inadequate public infrastructure.
