Presents information on Sitchins theories about the origins of mankind and the intervention of intelligence from beyond the Earth. He and the other contributors offer a scholarly approach to the ancient astronaut theory. Contains the complete transcript of the first Sitchin Studies Day, held in Denver, Colorado on Oct. 6, 1996. Following Sitchins detailed keynote address are six other prominent speakers whose work he has influenced. They include philosopher Neil Freer, UFO expert J. Antonio Huneeus, clergyman Father Charles Moore, author V. Susan Ferguson, and two university professors, Madeleine Briskin and Marlene Evans. They agree that certain myths were actual events instead of figments of imaginations. Sitchins work comprises the early part of a new paradigmone that is already beginning to shake the very foundations of religion, archaeology and our society in general.

Critical study of the Bhagavadgītā; includes text and translation.

The biology of birds is diverse and frequently differs significantly from that of other vertebrates. Many birds migrate or fly at high altitudes, while egg-laying and feather production places high demands on nutrient uptake and storage. This book is the only comprehensive and up-to-date survey of avian biochemistry and molecular biology available. It emphasises the similarities and differences between birds and other vertebrates, concentrating on new developments. The first section deals with protein, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism, its hormonal control and the adaptations that occur in birds. The second covers the avian genome, gene expression, and avian immunology. Growth and embryological development are also discussed. Avian Biochemistry and Molecular Biology will be of interest to all those working on birds, especially postgraduate students and researchers.
