This is Dr. Brodsky's 9th book with data and information for protecting health and saving lives. It condenses his 2011 book into life-saving information easily followed by any member of the public. The urgency for distributing this information now, as indicated here in the few pages of Appendix C, is supported by the following quote from a paragraph in the book by former Secretary of State Colin Powell, My American Journey: "...sanctions work best against leaders who have the interests of their country and people at heart, because sanctions hurt the people and the country more than the leaders...And since these leaders are still going to have a roof over their heads, food on their tables, gas in their tanks, and power in their hands, sanctions rarely work against them..."Information here in Dr. Brodsky's book (see his background on page 145) fills gaps in official homeland security preparations and will empower civilians to save their own families, not only from radiation but also from other natural disasters or terrorist events.ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Dr. Allen Brodsky has a B.E. in chemical engineering from The Johns Hopkins University, an Atomic Energy Commission-National Research Council (AEC-NRC) Fellowship in Radiological Physics at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a masters in physics, and a doctor in science (Sc.D.) in biostatistics and radiation health, University of Pittsburgh. He is certified by the American Board of Health Physics, the American Board of Industrial Hygiene, and the American Board of Radiology.
How do you handle personal mistakes? Do you allow them to paralyze your personal success and spiritual growth? Or, do you allow them to induce fear and doubt in your relationship with Christ? The Bible contains numerous accounts of individuals who failed in their relationship with Him. Yet, this did not prevent them from doing great things for Him.God is a God of the Comeback. In the third book of the Restoration & Recovery Series, we will continue to examine the failures and ultimate successes of biblical characters. If they overcame, then, the Christian today can come out of any personal pit and enter into their God-given purpose. Their examples provide hope and strength for the Christian today. Book 3 of 4.

When sixteen year old Kate Genovese went to visit her sister Denise in the hospital in 1968, she claims "something clicked that very moment, I wanted to make Denise better again, heal her shattered body and make her laugh ... I couldn't put words to my feelings, but I knew I wanted to do more then just visit" That day Kate discovered her calling in life, nursing, and spent the next thirty years on an adventure that has been at once rewarding and devastating, tumultuous and spiritual. Her memoir poignantly describes the adventures of her nursing career, beginning with her trial-some days as an LPN, where she lost her nursing license because of a drug addiction, her recovery, and going back to school once again to obtain her RN. The memoir meanders through the eighties and nineties, where she writes about her experiences with insurance companies and federal Medicare systems, which have proven to be somewhat flawed in the method in which they fund patients. Interspersed within the memoir are hilarious anecdotes about nursing "mishaps" magical accounts of patients having near death experiences, and tales of strength, hope, and courage in a world of sickness and death.______Kate Genovese has been a registered nurse for over 30 years.

Your spiritual path is yours alone. Your signposts are Jesus' teaching, which never made it into the creed. Little of biblical studies has escaped university classrooms. Jesus taught a message open to all, in or out of the pews. This book questions old answers and asks new questions, putting Jesus into his historical context and showing how everyone can walk his path. Modern authors offer many new ideas about Jesus: he was a political rebel or his body was left on the cross for days on end before being thrown into a common grave. Are these new insights or just novel ideas? Jesus was revolutionary, but not against Rome or Judaism. He revolutionized how we see God and ourselves. Many accept Christian doctrines on the basis of common assumptions: Jesus founded a church which became a new religion; all New Testament writers taught the same thing; Jesus was put to death for claiming to be divine and king of the Jews; he gave his apostles and their successors authority that we today are subject to. The author asserts that all these assumptions must be questioned, and that you alone can decide how to walk your spiritual path.
