It seems that few days  pass that I don't come upon some article or TV/web news report on topics relating to  my techno-thriller A REMEDY FOR DEATH (Playing God with Body, Soul and Bio-tech). Here are a few examples of what's turned up recently:

Medical ethics-- "Tampering with embryos is tampering with human souls" suggests article in London Daily Telegraph

If you're on this page, you likely know that my technothriller A REMEDY FOR DEATH deals with, among other issues, questions of medical ethics, including organ and tissue regeneration, cross-species "trading" of tissues and stem cells, and the ultimate question of, When does death in fact occur?

while some may disagree with Mr. Rees-Mogg's points in the article, you have to admire his exceptional wisdom and prudence by stating clearly "He is not on Twitter." Amen to that! I say.

And I add, Life is too short to be a Twiterer ... or a reader of Twits!

Can brain implants help restore memory?

Restoring memory plays a key role in my scientific technothriller, A REMEDY FOR DEATH: Playing God with Body, Soul and Biotech, Though REMEDY is finished and out in the world, I still have Google search and other similar on the lookout for new developments.  (Who knows? Maybe there will be a sequel sometime. But what would I title it? SON OF REMEDY FOR DEATH?  Nah, guess I'll have to keep looking.)

Non-verbal communication skills: free book sample from SALES PRESENTATIONS & DEMONSTRATIONS

Following is a reblog from one of my other sites, this on subtle communication skills in sales, but equally important in other aspects of career how-to and career development skills:

The term, "Non-verbal communication skills" has been getting a number of hits lately on this blog, so I thought it would be a good time to put up a sample on using body language in the sales call (particularly when making presentations or demonstrations) from my little book, SALES PRESENTATIONS & DEMONSTRATIONS.

Though this is from my blog, Selling Face to Face: Consultative Selling, the skill of reading and sending non-verbal messages is equally important in other areas, including the area of career and business guides, so I'm linking it here to this blog, as the ability to read and project non-verbal communications is a key people skill essential to career success.

 

"Scientists get closer to rejuvenating aging muscles"-- Health Day News

Rejuvenating  aging muscles -- I was really feeling the need for something like that this weekend in the course of my first-ever kayaking trip.  I felt my age then . . . NO, correction! I felt my age twice over.  But good news-- no after-effects the next day.

The work, done at Stanford, focuses on an experimental method for rejuvenating the muscles of aged or injured mice. Interesting. First mice, then us! (Maybe)
