Tom was only 13 years old when he vanished without a trace, so it is not surprising that the stranger who shows up 36 years later claiming to be Tom is thought to be an imposter. But what if he is the boy grown to be a young man, returned not from the past but from the future—a future with faster-than-light spacecraft, death-dealing ray guns, humanoid robots, menacing aliens, bug-eyed monsters, heroic spacemen, captivating spacewomen, megalomaniacal madmen, sentient dinosaurs, and bioengineered cats? If Tom is telling the truth, an interstellar conflict whose origin lies centuries in the future has spilled over into the present—and the past, present, and future are entwined in a riddle for which there appears to be no answer. The Solar Patrol is a blend of space opera and hard science fiction set in the past as it never was and the future as it used to be. The Solar Patrol is a tale of a future once imagined. Unsolicited Reviews: “The Solar Patrol is more than your typical science fiction novel. It attempts to answer such timeless questions as, ‘Is being in the eighth grade worse than being thrown into the midst of an interstellar war?’” – Unsolicited reviewer “The author’s depth of character development is unsurpassed, especially with regard to cats.” – Neutronium (Cyber-cat) “The exobiology found in Miller’s novel far exceeds that of most science fiction. Want to know what a bilaterally inverted Polluxian Snerg Blat is, then read this book.” – Another unsolicited reviewer “I read the book and I still don’t know what a bilaterally inverted Polluxian Snerg Blat is. Perhaps the author will get around to explaining it in the next book of the series?” – A disgruntled unsolicited reviewer
Introduction to Psychology for Medical Students deals with general psychology aimed for medical undergraduate students. The book discusses psychology and its relevance to medicine, particularly on the relation of the mind and the treatment of physical diseases. The authors explain perceiving and imagining; and how perception is dependent on past experience or learning, and the effects of motivation and of mood on perception. The authors also discuss abstract and concrete thinking, emotional use of words, unconscious thinking, creative thinking, learning, and remembering. The unconscious process of forgetting of unwelcome memories is repression, while consciously trying to forget them is suppression. The authors also explain normal conflict, frustration, and reaction to stress including the physical aspects of emotions causing increases in blood pressure, in adrenaline flow, or in blood glucose level. The authors also discuss the hypnotic states, individual susceptibility, the induction of hypnotic states, and their clinical applications. This book is intended for medical undergraduate students, as well as to general readers interested in psychology and human behavior.
