Reflections

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Writing this book has been a very fulfilling experience. The items you read will perhaps give you a reason to pause and reflect on different times in your past and things you have experienced. Reflections is the name of this book. I chose “reflections” for a specific reason. As you read this book, some items may give you reason to reflect back in time. Take your time as you read and think of times past. Life is a great teacher. At times, we need to look to our past to learn from our mistakes as well as the victories we have accomplished. We are never too old to learn, to listen before we speak, to forgive rather than judge, and to show compassion and understanding. As a wise man once told me, “You cannot go forward in life if you spend all your time looking back.” I will leave you with this thought, “Reflect, learn, and live life to the fullest.”

Whispers Within

By: Gerald Raulston

Summary As you read this book, you will find that some of the things written will grab your heart, and others will have you wondering what the author was thinking about when he wrote it. The inspiration for the many different types of writing comes from several things. Some from others and their different and varied circumstances in life. They often ask me to try to put into words something that would encourage or pick up their spirits. Other items written are simply written from the heart in a lighthearted way, hoping to spark the imagination of the reader and to also give them something to think about. When you read these writings, sit back and relax and tune the world out and let your mind wander. Try to feel the words and allow them to touch your heart.

Freedom of Expression

By: Gerald Eugene Raulston

Author’s comments Writing this book has been a fun journey. I have enjoyed being able to share with you some of my thoughts and experiences. By writing this book I have gained a deeper understanding of life itself. A deeper understanding of the emotions that make life worth living. This book covers a wide range of emotions and expressions that are too often taken for granted. I hope the reader of this book will take his or her time when reading the words. Take time to allow the feelings in the words, to grab their hearts. I realize that not everyone will like everything written. It is my sincere hope that there will be something between the cover of this book for everyone. I have traveled oceans and climbed mountains. I have floated raging rapids and slept in the jungle. I have done a lot of exciting things in my life. These things have given me a great feeling of satisfaction and fulfillment. Writing this book and sharing it with the world has given me a deep and fulfilling feeling of personal accomplishment. Several years ago I had a dream. My dream was to someday write a book. My dream has become a reality. I am proud to share it with you.

The World within War

The World within War

By: Gerald Linderman

Gerald Linderman has created a seamless and highly original social history, authoritatively recapturing the full experience of combat in World War II. Drawing on letters and diaries, memoirs and surveys, Linderman explores how ordinary frontline American soldiers prepared for battle, related to one another, conceived of the enemy, thought of home, and reacted to battle itself. He argues that the grim logic of protracted combat threatened soldiers not only with the loss of limbs and lives but with growing isolation from country and commanders and, ultimately, with psychological disintegration.

Galileo's Gout

Science in an Age of Endarkenment

By: Gerald Weissmann

America's most interesting and important essayist." —Eric Kandel, Nobel Prize–winning author of The Age of Insight "[Gerald Weissmann] bridges the space between science and the humanities, and particularly between medicine and the muses, with wit, erudition, and, most important, wisdom." —Adam Gopnik Embryonic stem cell research. Evolution vs. intelligent design. The transformation of medicine into "health care." Climate change. Never before has science been so intertwined with politics, never have we been more dependent on scientific solutions for the preservation of the species. Transporting us across more than four hundred years of pivotal moments in science and medicine, Gerald Weissmann distills history's lessons for today's new age of sect and violence: "The Endarkenment." Among others, he lingers with Galileo and his daughter in seventeenth-century Florence, Diderot and d'Alembert in Enlightenment Paris, William and Alice James in fin de siècle Boston, James Watson as the John McEnroe of DNA, and Craig Venter decoding the genome at the dawn of the twenty-first century. Weissmann's message is clear: "Experimental science is our defense—perhaps our best defense—against humbug and the Endarkenment." Gerald Weissmann (August 7, 1930 – July 10, 2019) was a physician, scientist, editor, and essayist whose collections include The Fevers of Reason: New and Selected Essays; Epigenetics in the Age of Twitter: Pop Culture and Modern Science; Mortal and Immortal DNA: Science and the Lure of Myth; and Galileo’s Gout: Science in an Age of Endarkenment.
