'Are we alone in the universe' This is a question that mankind has pondered for many millennia. There are over two-hundred-and-fifty-billion stars within our Milky Way galaxy alone; and there are at least one-hundred-billion galaxies in the observable universe. Considering the sheer magnitude of these numbers, one must conclude that there must be trillions upon trillions of planets within our universe. It would then seem logical, that a percentage of these trillions of worlds must contain intelligent life.So, the real question that mankind should be asking is not, 'Are we alone in the universe', rather we should instead be asking, 'How long will it be until humanity finally meets its interstellar alien neighbours'Of course, there are those who claim that this meeting between human beings and alien beings has already taken place.In Volume Two of Duncan Murphy's 'Close Encounters', we will explore five true cases of people who claim to have encountered UFO's and have been abducted by aliens. -The Charles Hickson & Calvin Parker Abduction: More commonly known as 'The Pascagoula Abduction'. A simple fishing trip becomes a harrowing experience for two fishermen when they unexpectedly encounter a UFO and its strange occupants. -The Longley Abduction: A happy family traveling along a quiet rural road in Australia suddenly find themselves being taken by otherworldly beings.-The Linda Cortile Abduction: In the bustling city of New York, aliens snatch a woman from her bed in the middle of the night; An incident with many eyewitnesses. - The Betty Andreasson Abduction: After being taken from her home by alien beings, a woman is surprised to discover that she has repressed a lifetime's worth of memories involving previous abduction experiences and strange alien experimentation.-The Kelly Cahill Encounter: A deeply terrifying incident involving a young woman, her husband, a UFO, and a possible link to the truly frightening paranormal phenomenon, 'Shadow People'. It doesn't matter if you are a believer, a skeptic, or are simply uncertain; the concept of alien abduction is simply fascinating, and Volume Two of 'Close Encounters' by Duncan Murphy takes readers on an informative journey into this fascinating topic.

The Nature, Role and Formation of Conscience in the Thoughts of John Henry Newman, Germain Grisez and Linda Hogan

The Nature, Role and Formation of Conscience in the Thoughts of John Henry Newman, Germain Grisez and Linda Hogan

John Musa Aikoye

LAP Lambert Academic Publishing
2020
pokkari
From the birth of Christianity to the present day, conscience has been a prominent and essentially contentious concept in Catholic moral theology and tradition. Catholic theologians have, for centuries, engaged in generating elaborate treatises on the meaning, nature, primacy, role and formation of this human capacity for moral choice. this thesis draws from ongoing modern theological enquiry evidenced in the works of the English clerical scholar, John Henry Newman, the American lay moral theologian, Germain Grisez, and the Irish moral theologian, Linda Hogan. As with the overall history of the study of conscience, the writings of these modern scholars on the nature and function of conscience reveal distinctive differences in the moral theological views they represent. Newman's general approach to the topic could be characterised as being distinctively religious, while Grisez's is driven by philosophical/conformist principles and Hogan's by the tenets of personalism. The thesis evaluates the usefulness and efficacy of these distinctive approaches by examining them in relation to the overall teaching tradition of the Catholic Church.

The Ordeal of Elizabeth Marsh

The Ordeal of Elizabeth Marsh

Linda Colley

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS
2008
nidottu
From the author of ‘Britons’, the story of the exceptional life of the intrepid Elizabeth Marsh – an extraordinary woman of her time who was caught up in trade, imperialism, war, exploration, migration, growing maritime reach, and new ideas. Linda Colley's new book breaks the boundaries between biography, family stories and global history. This is a book about a world in a life. An individual lost to history, Elizabeth Marsh (1735-85) travelled farther, and was more intimately affected by developments across the globe, than the vast majority of men. Conceived in Jamaica and possibly mixed-race, she was the first woman to publish in English on Morocco, and the first to carry out extensive overland explorations in eastern and southern India, journeying in each case in close companionship with an unmarried man. She spent time in some of the world's biggest ports and naval bases, Portsmouth, Menorca, Gibraltar, London, Rio de Janeiro, Calcutta and the Cape. She was damaged by the Seven Years War and the American Revolutionary War; and linked through her own migrations with voyages of circumnavigation, and as victim and owner, she was involved in three different systems of slavery. But hers is a broadly revealing, not simply an exceptional, life. Marsh's links to the Royal Navy, the East India Company, empire and international trade made these experiences possible. To this extent, her career illumines shifting patterns of British and Western power and overseas aggression. The swift onset of globalization occurring in her lifetime also ensured that her progress, relationships and beliefs were repeatedly shaped and deflected by people and events beyond Europe. While imperial players like Edmund Burke and Eyre Coote form a part of her story, so do African slave sailors, skilled Indian weavers and astronomers, ubiquitous Sephardi Jewish traders, and the great Moroccan Sultan, Sidi Muhammad, who schemed to entrap her. Many modern biographies remain constrained by a national framework, while global histories are generally impersonal. By contrast, in this dazzling and original book, Linda Colley moves repeatedly and questioningly between vast geo-political transformations and the intricate detail of individual lives. This is a global biography for our globalizing times.

What Rhymes with Bastard?

What Rhymes with Bastard?

Linda Robertson

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS
2008

The hilariously candid story of an unbelievably dysfunctional and disintegrating relationship. When her beloved Jack got banged up in a mental hospital after trying to sail down the Thames in a makeshift raft, Linda didn’t take the hint. Instead, she married him and moved to San Francisco, where she planned to get ahead. Alas, her blue-skied visions hadn’t included unemployment, arguments, or Jack’s desire to sleep with as many women as he could get his hands on. As romance turns to rot, our heroine pours her bile into song (but what does rhyme with ‘bastard’..?), assembles a cabaret band and takes to the dark, sticky stages of the city’s nightclubs. And there, amid a morass of strippers, magicians, artists and assorted weirdoes, she strives for the ultimate musical accolade: Ms Accordion San Francisco 2004. This is, essentially, the story of how a very nice boyfriend became a plastered bastard and how Linda wrote some songs about it.

The Midwife’s Here!

The Midwife’s Here!

Linda Fairley

HARPERCOLLINS PUBLISHERS
2012
nidottu
The Sunday Times bestseller ‘Delivering my first baby is a memory that will stay with me forever. Just feeling the warmth of a newborn head in your hands, that new life, there’s honestly nothing like it… I’ve since brought more than 2,200 babies into the world, and I still tingle with excitement every time.’ It’s the summer of 1968 and St Mary’s Maternity Hospital in Manchester is a place from a bygone age. It is filled with starched white hats and full skirts, steaming laundries and milk kitchens, strict curfews and bellowed commands. It is a time of homebirths, swaddling and dangerous anaesthetics. It was this world that Linda Fairley entered as a trainee midwife aged just 19 years old. From the moment Linda delivered her first baby – racing across rain-splattered Manchester street on her trusty moped in the dead of night – Linda knew she’d found her vocation. ‘The midwife’s here!’ they always exclaimed, joined in their joyful chorus by relieved husbands, mothers, grandmothers and whoever else had found themselves in close proximity to a woman about to give birth. Under the strict supervision of community midwife Mrs Tattershall, Linda’s gruellingly long days were spent on overcrowded wards pinning Terry nappies, making up bottles and sterilizing bedpans – and above all helping women in need. Her life was a succession of emergencies, successes and tragedies: a never-ending chain of actions which made all the difference between life and death. There was Mrs Petty who gave birth in heartbreaking poverty; Mrs Drew who confided to Linda that the triplets she was carrying were not in fact her husband’s; and Muriel Turner, whose dangerously premature baby boy survived – against all the odds. Forty years later Linda’s passion for midwifery burns as bright as ever as she is now celebrated as one of Britain’s longest-serving midwives, still holding the lives of mothers and children in her own two hands. Rich in period detail and told with a good dose of Manchester humour, The Midwife’s Here! is the extraordinary, heartwarming tale of a truly inspiring woman.

The second book from Sunday Times bestselling author Linda Fairley. ‘No matter how many babies I deliver, each and every one is a miracle, connecting me to the world like nothing else, reminding me that we are all equal in the beginning, and in the end. It’s a great leveller, childbirth.’ It’s January 1972 and times have changed since Linda first stepped onto a maternity ward four years earlier. Gone are the starched skirts and steaming milk kitchens of the 1960s; these are the exhilarating days of disposable equipment and new technology. The Pill will soon be free to all women, and more and more fathers are daring to brave the delivery room. At the newly-opened Ashton maternity unit the midwives’ spirits are high, and, in spite of the dark cloud of laundry strikes on the horizon, there’s the scent of a new era on the cold winter wind. But one thing has stayed the same – the babies keep coming. Year after year, Linda faithfully helps the women of Greater Manchester through their most vulnerable and emotional hours, whether it is by giving calm instructions over the phone to a panicking husband, delivering a baby unexpectedly in a hospital lift, or by dashing headlong to the rescue of a snowed-in mum-to-be. As 25-year-old Linda becomes a mother herself she understands, more than ever, what a precious gift it is to bring children into the world, and she holds each new baby just that little bit tighter. As the years roll by Linda finds herself delivering the babies of mothers and fathers she helped to bring into the world decades earlier – making her something of a local celebrity. Through the highs and lows, through the modernisations that transform the hospital and the world outside, Linda’s passion for midwifery burns as bright as ever. With 42 years of experience Linda is one of Britain’s longest-serving midwives, and reaching the retirement age in 2008 didn’t stop her doing the job she loves. Although she has seen generations of women give birth and delivered more than 2,000 babies, she treats every new arrival like the new miracle it is.
