Alzheimer’s Disease

Problems, Prospects, and Perspectives

By: Abraham Fisher,Israel Hanin,Chaim Lachman

Alzheimer's disease is a primary neurodegenerative disease whose incidence and prevalence is rapidly approaching epidemic proportions. A major reason for this is that man is living longer than he has ever lived before and the likelihood of contracting the disease is significantly greater within the elderly portion of the population. The problem becomes even more acute in the light of recent estimates which predict that the number of people living beyond the age of 65 is expected to continue to increase. The impact of these statistics on the family and the health care industry in terms of time, effort and cost are staggering. A recent report issued by the Michigan Task Force on Alzheimer's Disease and Related Conditions (1987) effectively underscores this last point. "Each person with a dementing disease requires an average of seven years of care, either at home or in a residential care facility. Care provided at home is estimated to cost about $12,000 annually, for a total of $84,000 per person. This is a conservative figure, however, because many persons with dementia spend their last few years in a nursing home at an average 'cost of $22,000 per year, and some spend from 10 to 15 years in a nursing home, for a total cost of $220,000 to $330,000.

The International Harvester Company

A History of the Founding Families and Their Machines

By: Chaim M. Rosenberg

Ancient farmers used draft animals for plowing but the heavy work of harvesting fell to the humans, using sickle and scythe. Change came in the mid-19th century when Cyrus Hall McCormick built the mechanical harvester. Though the McCormicks used their wealth to establish art collections and universities, battle disease, and develop birth control, members of the family faced constant scrutiny and scandal. This book recounts their story as well as the history of the International Harvester Company (IHC)--a merger of the McCormick and Deering companies and the world's leader in agricultural machinery in the 1900s.

Ktavim Chadashim - New Writings

By: Chayim Vital,Chaim ben Joseph Vital,Isaac Luria

Ktavim Chadashim contains many unpublished works by Chaim Vital, the foremost disciple of the Ari (Isaac Luria). Here, for the first time, we publish two main sections in English, which are the commentary on Brit Menucha (Covenant of Rest), and the secret fourth part of Shaarei Kedusha (Gates of Holiness). The commentary on Brit Menucha deals with Kabbalah Ma'asit (Practical Kabbalah). It is much more than a simple commentary, because it contains names of angels that are not found in the original Brit Menucha, along with precise instructions concerning their usage. The fourth part of Shaarei Kedusha deals with the practical ways to force the Ruach Ha-Kodesh (Hooy Spirit) to descend upon us, thus allowing us to reach prophecy and the world to come. Vital even explains the 72 Names of God, with their angels

Rechovot Ha-Daat - Expansions of Knowledge

By: Chaim ben Joseph Vital,Isaac Luria

Expansions of Knowledge by Chaim Vital is the companion book of Explanation of Knowledge (Derush Ha-Daat), which contains the recording of the teachings by the Arizal concerning his overall system. Expansions of Knowledge further details the Lurianic system and includes over 30 additional unique drawings. The uniqueness of this book relies in the explanations about writing the Name of YHWH and Holy Names in general. The Shofer (scribe) as well as the practicing kabbalist must know the deep significance behind the mere act of writing, for they need to channel the proper "light" to make the word alive. Holy Names do not work if they are not animated by the proper Intentions and Prayers. Indeed, they can cause harm, if used improperly
