Big Deals with Alternative Medicine
by Beate Frenkel
The market is growing for homeopathic remedies, diets and all kinds of miracle cures. Although homeopathic practitioners in Germany are largely unregulated, their supporters are growing in number. An industry has sprung up around alternative medicine that draws on the mistrust towards the pharmaceutical industry, medicine and the media. Many products are as harmless as they are ineffective – but some are dangerous or even lethal. Beate Frenkel investigates: where is the source of this boom? What role do conspiracy theories play as well as the influence of the internet? Why do politicians and the German Medical Association take so few preventive steps? Powerful examples are backed up with statements from doctors, patients and alternative medicine practitioners.

Homeopathic Symbols Remedy Kit
101 ready-to-use vibration-based remedies
by Christina Baumann, Roswitha Stark
Classical homeopathy is based on the well-known principle of cu- ring "the similar through the similar”. Above all in higher potencies the starting substance cannot be chemically detected anymore, the remedies are basically only composed of pure "vibrational energy". However, their frequencies cannot only be conveyed through glo- buli but also through colour, sound or – as in this book – through powerful symbols and signs. The "Homeopathic Symbols Remedy Kit” provides 101 low-cost vibration-based remedies that are easy to use. This goes far be- yond the classical knowledge of Samuel Hahnemann (1755 – 1843) and meets present day requirements: Powerful symbols for 70 well-known homeopathic remedies (ar- nica, belladonna, lachesis ) as well as for 31 new remedies such as algae, enzymes, amino acids, negative ions or sunlight Several test lists for different potency levels g. D series, C series or LM series – for the suitable potency during "vibration adjust- ment” Including the new and unique potency "Divine particles” which allows an almost infinite raising of the cosmic resonance level The symbols allow you to go into resonance with the entire spec- trum of the remedy and at the same time with the "essence” of the original substance, to "resonate” with it as it were; this will opti- mally activate your self-healing powers on a physical, psychological and spiritual level.

Sarah is taking a break from her eco-warrior activities, looking after her sister's wholefood shop in a small west of Ireland town. When a dying calf is found on the local dump, she begins to make some enquiries. Before long, the dark shadow cast by modern beef production begins to emerge in another, more sinister form, and Sarah finds that her path keeps crossing that of the town butcher, Malachy Glynn. An Act of Worship explores the ethics of beef production and the treatment of cattle in mainstream processing, and in the far less conventional approach of Malachy Glynn.

The Vél d'Hiv Raid
The French Police at the Service of the Gestapo
by Maurice Rajsfus; translated by Levi Laub; foreword by Michel Warschawski
With passion and indignation, Maurice Rajsfus recounts the worst single crime of the Vichy regime in France: the pre-dawn arrest by French police, at German instigation, on July 16-17, 1942, of 13,152 Jewish men, women, and children, and their ordeal on the way to extermination. Rajsfus brings this terrible experience to life with contemporary texts – high-level Franco-German haggling, detailed police instructions, eye-witness testimony, and press commentary. – Robert O. Paxton, author of Vichy France and the Jews This uniquely detailed study of the July 16, 1942 roundup offers the only contemporary analysis of both the precursors and the aftermath of the Vél d’Hiv Raid. Rajsfus details the internal organization of the police, showing the mechanisms of this raid particularly and of raids in general, making the book an indispensable micro-history of the Holocaust. Notably, as the author points out, the French police went beyond Nazi ordinances and took it upon themselves to arrest and imprison more than 13,000 Jews at the Vélodrome d’Hiver. This book flies in the face of right-wing politicians who today continue to deny the crime was a French one.

I've learned a lot of history from all of Ginny's books (thank you so much for sharing). It's hard to believe these people are fictional. The story continues on in each book, a page turner you'll be reluctant to put down until you've finished reading the entire book. Less than 24 hrs since its' release and I've finished the book. Time to start rereading the entire set again. If you haven't read any of these books you've missed out big time. My suggestion would be just try the first book. If you're not hooked by the first chapter try one more. These books have grabbed my heart & soul from the beginning page right until the last word.
