When psychic surgeon Chris Ratter was starting out on his own path of unfolding trance mediumship, he found there was very little information available to clarify certain points or answer questions he had. His desire to ensure others did not feel the same isolation and confusion became his main motivation for writing An Exploration of Trance Mediumship. Chris takes the reader on a touching quest to find greater understanding of the bridge between our world and the world of spirit, explaining key aspects of trance mediumship as well as introducing the reader to his spirit team and providing insight as to how he came to know his individual guides. All mediumship is healing, and an accurate, perceptive verbal communication from a loved one in spirit has the power to mend a metaphorical broken heart. When it comes to the physical body, however, Chris's psychic surgery, which goes hand-in-hand with his trance mediumship, has the power to heal across the spectrum of psychological and physiological conditions.
A classic animal adventure story featuring dueling squirrel clans, peace-keeping dogs, interspecies friendships, and unlikely heroes.

No sooner had Chris Stewart set eyes on El Valero than he handed over a check. Now all he had to do was explain to Ana, his wife that they were the proud owners of an isolated sheep farm in the Alpujarra Mountains in Southern Spain. That was the easy part. Lush with olive, lemon, and almond groves, the farm lacks a few essentials—running water, electricity, an access road. And then there's the problem of rapacious Pedro Romero, the previous owner who refuses to leave. A perpetual optimist, whose skill as a sheepshearer provides an ideal entrée into his new community, Stewart also possesses an unflappable spirit that, we soon learn, nothing can diminish. Wholly enchanted by the rugged terrain of the hillside and the people they meet along the way—among them farmers, including the ever-resourceful Domingo, other expatriates and artists—Chris and Ana Stewart build an enviable life, complete with a child and dogs, in a country far from home.
The stock of accumulated fairy tale literature? Surprisingly it might be smaller/be fewer than you think/surmise. Searching the internet for “fairy tales the world cherishes”, the number came to no more than a “round ten” or so of the best and most familiar household names, ones. As also with poetry on specific subjects and themes, especially those themes that I choose for my poems, THE FIELD IS WIDE OPEN FOR LACK OF COMPETITION. Fairy tales being known to be good for kids in many a’ way, including: - they teach that “good” always triumphs over “bad”, which serves to instill the idea firmly in children’s minds that they should/ought to fight for Right as well, emulating their fairy tale heroes and heroines when they become grown and go out into the world. - the stories most often have a “moral” or “lesson” to be drawn from them, from which kids can learn the many facets/dimensions of Right from Wrong, Wise from Foolish, and Caring from Uncaring, to name only a few. - fairy tales abstract from the “mortal” human condition, and lift us up into a world (lift us up where we belong, where the eagles cry on a mountain high!), free of limitations where “hero” and “heroine” without fail, “live happily ever after”. What good can possibly come from such a blatant denial of Reality and the human condition as we know it? Could it be that it raises/lifts kids’ thinking “above the clouds and rain, way above the hurt and pain”, the woes and heartaches of this life, and would also equip them for the life as a pastor/preacher? hehe If this book has one contribution to make, it is hopefully to add to the existing stock of positivity-writ-large, “fairy tales the world cherishes”, (and to the stock of pastors!).

British Rail was a success. It successfully carried millions of commuters to and from their jobs every day; organised its trunk route services to yield a profit under the brand name ‘Inter-City’; pioneered world-beating research and technological development through its own research centre and engineering subsidiary. It transformed the railway system of Britain from a post-Second World War state of collapse into a modern, technologically advanced railway. It did all this despite being starved of cash and being subjected to the whims of ever fickle politicians. British Rail, A Passenger’s Journey is the story of how all that was achieved, seen from a passenger’s perspective.

Dogs are our constant companions: models of loyalty and unconditional love for millions around the world. But these beloved animals are much more than just our pets - and our shared history is far richer and more complex than you might assume. Here, historian and dog lover Chris Pearson reveals how the shifting fortunes of dogs hold a mirror to our changing society, from the evolution of breeding standards to the fight for animal rights. Wherever humans have gone, dogs have followed, changing size, appearance and even jobs along the way - from the forests of medieval Europe, where greyhounds chased down game for royalty, to the frontlines of twentieth-century conflicts, where dogs carried messages and hauled gun carriages. Despite vast social change, however, the power of the human-canine bond has never diminished. By turns charming, thought-provoking and surprising, Collared reveals the fascinating tale of how we made the modern dog.

It explores the present environmental crisis, examines how the planet Earth fits into the wider universe and explores human-environment interactions.
