Summary

The goal of this edition is to help people understand the complexity of the issue, to learn about the long battle that was fought before the revolutionary ruling Roe v. Wade and the slow success of the numerous legislations and regulations passed after this law which led to the most recent controversial ruling.   The legality of abortion in the United States is subject to individual state laws. In 1973, Roe v. Wade made the first abortion case to be taken to the Supreme Court, which had made it federally legal. In 1992, Roe was partially overturned by Planned Parenthood v. Casey, which stated that states cannot place legal restrictions posing an undue burden for "the purpose or effect of placing a substantial obstacle in the path of a woman seeking an abortion of a nonviable fetus." In 2022, both Roe and Casey were overturned, and abortions are now subject to regulations based on state laws once again. Individual states can regulate and limit the use of abortion, some of which already have through the use of "trigger laws", which made abortion illegal within the first and second trimesters when Roe was overturned. Eight states—Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Michigan, Mississippi, Oklahoma, West Virginia and Wisconsin—still have pre-Roe abortion bans in their laws, which may be enforced too.  This reading provides a thorough overview of the federal legalisation regarding the legality of abortion. It presents a judicial history and legislative response of the US federal institutions. In addition this collection is enriched with information which are indispensable part of every abortion debate in the United States.

    A donor mother’s powerful memoir of grief and rebirth that is also a fascinating medical science whodunit, taking us inside the world of organ, eye, tissue, and blood donation and cutting-edge scientific research. 
    When Sarah Gray received the devastating news that her unborn son Thomas was diagnosed with anencephaly, a terminal condition, she decided she wanted his death—and life—to have meaning. In the weeks before she gave birth to her twin sons in 2010, she arranged to donate Thomas’s organs. Due to his low birth weight, they would go to research rather than transplant. As transplant donors have the opportunity to meet recipients, Sarah wanted to know how Thomas's donation would be used. 
    That curiosity fueled a scientific odyssey that leads Sarah to some of the most prestigious scientific facilities in the country, including Harvard, Duke, and the University of Pennsylvania. Pulling back the curtain of protocol and confidentiality, she introduces the researchers who received Thomas’s donations, held his liver in their hands, studied his cells under the microscope.  
    Sarah’s journey to find solace and understanding takes her beyond her son’s donations—offering a breathtaking overview of the world of medical research and the valiant scientists on the horizon of discovery. She goes behind the scenes at organ procurement organizations, introducing skilled technicians for whom death means saving lives, empathetic counselors, and the brilliant minds who are finding surprising and inventive ways to treat and cure disease through these donations. She also shares the moving stories of other donor families. 
    A Life Everlasting is an unforgettable testament to hope, a tribute to life and discovery, and a portrait of unsung heroes pushing the boundaries of medical science for the benefit of all humanity.

    Mind control is a tool that one can use for good or evil purposes. It all depends on the type of mind control that is involved and the intent of the individual who wants to apply it. It also depends on whether the target or subject of mind control will benefit from it or is harmed. Nonetheless, mind control is a very intriguing and fascinating topic. The majority of us use some form of mind control such as persuasion or manipulation in our everyday lives to get what we want from others and to achieve our goals. Some of us even have used the mind control technique of self hypnosis on ourselves for self improvement in the areas of weight loss, reducing stress levels, or eradicating bad habits such as smoking from our lives. 
    Mind control is a vast subject that has many components and factors to it and to get the proper understanding of it and the many techniques that are involved, it must be examined and explored in great detail. In his book entitled Banned Mind Control Techniques Unleashed author Daniel Smith covers in detail Mind Control and its associated techniques that are literally hidden away from the general public. You will learn about the dark secrets of hypnosis, manipulation, deception, persuasion, brainwashing and human psychology. 
    After reading this book you will have a deeper understanding of mind control and its core principles. You will also have the information that you need to use mind control on others or stop others from using mind control on you!
