  This is a collection of five alchemical tracts written by one of the most famous alchemists who was said to have discovered the Philosopher's Stone. In these writings Paracelsus attempts to educate the reader about the nature of the Philosopher's Stone and the scientific principles from which we can be assured of its existence and understand how it works. Like all alchemical tracts, the language is very cryptic and allegorical so as to be unintelligible to the unworthy.

  Amidst the turmoil of the Secret War in Laos, Toua, a young Hmong boy of just ten years finds himself torn from the embrace of his family, catapulted into a world far beyond the innocence of childhood. This memoir unfolds the harrowing and inspirational journey of resilience and survival against the backdrop of a conflict that most weren’t aware of, where the Hmong people stood alongside Americans in the shadows of the Vietnam War. 
  Hidden within the unforgiving jungle's embrace, the boy finds solace and an unexpected sense of belonging among the Hmong Freedom Fighters. Together, they navigate the perilous terrain of warfare, where each day brings with it the heavy burden of survival and the haunting question of morality in the face of relentless danger. Despite the camaraderie and purpose he finds, the boy is plagued by an unyielding yearning for his family and a sense of displacement, his soul marred by the trials of war and the difficult tasks demanded of him. 
  At his lowest, contemplating the escape of death over the pain of existence, a glimmer of unwavering hope and the dream of family reunion guides him through the darkness. The North Star, known as the Bright Star to the Hmong, a beacon amidst the chaos, becomes his guide, steering him through his treacherous journey towards refuge, and ultimately, to the shores of America. 
  This memoir is more than a tale of survival; it's a testament to the indomitable spirit of a young boy thrust into the maelstrom of war. It's a story of the unbreakable bonds of family, the transformative power of hope, and the relentless resilience of the human spirit. Through the eyes of a child, we witness the cost of freedom, the price of survival, and the enduring strength of the human heart.

  The Internet Is Not What You...

  An original deep history of the internet that tells the story of the centuries-old utopian dreams behind it—and explains why they have died today 
   
  Many think of the internet as an unprecedented and overwhelmingly positive achievement of modern human technology. But is it? In The Internet Is Not What You Think It Is, Justin Smith offers an original deep history of the internet, from  
  the ancient to the modern world—uncovering its surprising origins in nature and centuries-old dreams of radically improving human life by outsourcing thinking to machines and communicating across vast distances. Yet, despite the internet’s  
  continuing potential, Smith argues, the utopian hopes behind it have finally died today, killed by the harsh realities of social media, the global information economy, and the attention-destroying nature of networked technology. 
   
  Ranging over centuries of the history and philosophy of science and technology, Smith shows how the “internet” has been with us much longer than we usually think. He draws fascinating connections between internet user experience,  
  artificial intelligence, the invention of the printing press, communication between trees, and the origins of computing in the machine-driven looms of the silk industry. At the same time, he reveals how the internet’s organic structure and  
  development root it in the natural world in unexpected ways that challenge efforts to draw an easy line between technology and nature. 
   
  Combining the sweep of intellectual history with the incisiveness of philosophy, The Internet Is Not What You Think It Is cuts through our daily digital lives to give a clear-sighted picture of what the internet is, where it came from, and where it might be taking us in the coming decades.
