Have you ever thought that there is just something completely wrong with how we run our companies? LOVE INCORPORATED is an exploration of what it means to create an organisation where people are treated as more than assets.

Does Spacetime Exist?If spacetime does not exist, it certainly does so in a curiously conspicuous way, not at all like other geometric abstractions. Consider this mindbender: spacetime does not exist at all, but it doesn't exist in the void even more than it doesn't exist in the universe. Is that the description of something that does not exist?Relativity theory treats spacetime as a mathematical abstraction-a four-dimensional coordinate system analogous to the three dimensions of Cartesian geometry. It does not exist, per se. It is not a "thing" in any tangible sense. It merely serves as the background needed to describe the behaviors of the "real" things that exist within it. It is no more than the stage on which the cosmic drama plays out. That's the theory.What if spacetime exists after all? Are we not obliged to take this stuff seriously and start asking questions? What are its properties? Where did it come from? Is spacetime a simple or a composite thing? Can it be broken into simpler parts? If not, are we compelled to wonder if spacetime is actually the fundamental substance of the universe? And how does this remarkable stuff come together to form the physical world around us?The Substance of Spacetime sets out to investigate these very mysteries and the results are truly exciting. Treating spacetime, not merely as a coordinate system, but as a real physical substance, opens a window onto reality that would otherwise be impossible to even contemplate.If spacetime exists, everything changes.

What choice did she really have? With the perfection of Labbitt Halsey Genomics'' groundbreaking XEN protocol, no conscientious parent could deny the tantalizing possibilities. At least that''s what Ann Franklin''s husband convinced her of at the time they chose to conceive. Her son was to be one of the children of the future, whose unprecedented genius would propel mankind into a bright, shining tomorrow. But sixteen years later, sobered by the pitiless law of unintended consequences, Ann finds herself drawn into Jeremy''s horrifying world, one of nihilism and suicide, while struggling against the loss of her high-powered consulting career, her son, and possibly her own life.From the pressure-packed government-corporate culture of Washington, D.C. to the XEN underworld in the back streets of New Orleans, The Labbitt Halsey Protocol explores the depths of a mother''s love in the face of genetic manipulation gone tragically awry.
