  Florida's Space Coast - The...

  Florida's Space Coast tells the compelling story of America's half century in space exploration from the successful launch of the first two-stage rocket in 1950 through the space shuttle missions of 2000. Told from the unique viewpoint of the people who built the Spaceport, this book shows how the space program transformed the east central Florida coast from a traditional citrus production and tourist area to one of the most influential high-tech centers in the nation. 
   
   
   
  Cape Canaveral was chosen as a missile launch site because of its many geographical advantages. However, in the early years of the space program, the area was far from an ideal place for NASA employees to raise their families. NASA brought in thousands of space-related workers, who, besides sending machines and people into space, had to meet the challenge of moving their families from urban environs to a rural southern county. This book engagingly recounts the parallel stories of the establishment of America's space program and its impact on the development of Brevard County.

  From Outer Space to Inner Space...

  Dr. Edgar Mitchell

  The sixth man who walked on the moon shares his journey to the stars, into the mind, and beyond. 
  In February 1971, as Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell hurtled Earthward through space, he was engulfed by a profound sense of universal connectedness. He intuitively sensed that his presence and that of the planet in the window were all part of a deliberate, universal process, and that the glittering cosmos itself was, in some way, conscious. The experience was so overwhelming, Mitchell knew his life would never be the same.  
  For the next thirty-five years, he embarked on another journey, an inward exploration of the ineffable mystery of human consciousness and being. Mitchell left NASA to form the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS). There he initiated research in areas of study previously neglected by mainstream science and constructed a theory that could explain not only the mysteries of consciousness, but also the psychic event—what spiritualists call a “miracle” and scientists dismiss altogether.  
  Mitchell also created a new dyadic model of reality, revealing a self-aware universe not predetermined by the laws of physics, preordained by deities, or infinitely malleable. While human actions are generally subject to the laws of physics, these laws are also influenced by the mind.  
  From Outer Space to Inner Space traces two remarkable journeys—one through space and one through the mind. Together they fundamentally alter the way we understand the miracle and mystery of being, and ultimately reveal humankind’s role in its own destiny.  
  Previously published as The Way of the Explorer, this edition includes a new foreword by Avi Loeb, an afterword by Dean Radin, and a postscript chapter by the author.

  This second edition has been revised and expanded, offering updated material and further insight into this profoundly draining condition.   
  Although I am both a medically qualified and an academic doctor, I do not purport to write this book as a trained psychiatrist or psychologist, of which I am neither. I do, however, claim to be an experienced, consultant-level, medical professional who has, in the past, suffered from panic attacks related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which I developed many, many years ago now. Consequently, I am very familiar with the subject matter, have been in your shoes, and am able to view the problem from both ends of the spectrum.  The purpose of this book is to provide you, the reader, with an enhanced understanding of panic attacks and anxiety, their causes, and their main features. Additionally, it is designed to embed within you an attitude that enables you to reclaim the authority or self-control that panic and anxiety may have stripped away. Despite what you may be feeling now, always appreciate that it is neither our anxieties nor our panic that define who we really are.  
  In this book you will find an awesome weapon that will help you change the way you relate to anxiety and panic and ultimately dominate them. Having said that, the reader should keep in mind that the road to recovery may not be a straight or comfortable one. Ups and downs, twists, and turns will be part of the journey. However, rest assured that you will find your way to a life free of anxiety and panic when you achieve the attitude alteration and concept lock-in presented in this book. Know that when it comes to defeating anxiety and panic, Knowledge is Truly king

  Churches and the Crisis of...

  Andrew Root

  Congregations often seek to combat the crisis of decline by using innovation to produce new resources. But leading practical theologian Andrew Root shows that the church's crisis is not in the loss of resources; it's in the loss of life—and that life can only return when we remain open to God's encountering presence. 
   
   
   
  This new book, related to Root's critically acclaimed Ministry in a Secular Age project, addresses the practical form the church must take in a secular age. Root uses two stories to frame the book: one about a church whose building becomes a pub and the other about Karl Barth. Root argues that Barth should be understood as a pastor with a deep practical theology that can help church leaders today. 
   
   
   
  This book pushes the church to be a waiting community that recognizes that the only way for it to find life is to stop seeing the church as the star of its own story. Instead of resisting decline, congregations must remain open to divine action. Root offers a rich vision for the church's future that moves away from an obsession with relevance and resources and toward the living God.
