Misinformation has had dramatic and dangerous effects, as evidenced by numerous events of the late 2010s and early 2020s. Reading a steady stream of misinformation leads to distrust, potentially leading to conflict in one's family and workplace, and even to civil unrest. At the heart of many such matters is scientific illiteracy. Many people enjoy a life of ease and convenience because of science--and since science also crosses courtrooms, classrooms and cultures, it has great potential to debunk misinformation and untangle the confusion on such issues as vaccines, sexual identity, race and evolution, alternative medicine, and human reproduction. This book addresses those issues and the popular stories, conspiracies, and misleading headlines that circulate across media platforms. Bringing accurate knowledge into people's agendas is challenging, and this book uses science and facts as a basis of every deliberation over laws and policies. The chapters weave together history, politics, human biology, and law, and demonstrate how our lives are dependent on understanding the nature of things.

Category : Bacon's Rebellion, 1676
ISBN : 0806347988
This volume resumes the story of Governor William Berkeley upon his return from England in 1659, then moves the reader quickly to that quintessential political embroglio of 17th-century America--Bacon's Rebellion of 1676. Convinced about the Governor's lack of concern for their safety and economic well being, a group of rebellious frontier planters cast their lot with Berkeley's cousin and former ally on the Governor's Council, Nathaniel Bacon. Bacon soon found himself at the head of a force of 2,000 men that routed the Pamunkeys and ultimately took possession of all of Virginia west of the Chesapeake Bay. Although Berkeley would emerge victorious, executing a number of Bacon's lieutenants, he was himself recalled to England five months later, scarcely three months before his own demise. An extraordinary episode in colonial history, Bacon's Rebellion may have been an earlier century's harbinger of the limits to which America's colonists would permit themselves to be ruled by a tyrant.

"My true story "Bring Joy to Vietnam" comes from my heart's desire to pay homage and bring honor to my thousands of Military Pen Pals from 1963 to 1975 I had the privilege of being bestowed 113 titles from all the Armed Forces which ended up with my being given the title of "Miss South Vietnam." The support I provided for the armed forces at home and at the war sites was both wonderful and terrible. With great sorrow, I would hear from friends of those who were killed, and feel the pain of all who suffered during the war. I treasure all the momentos sent to me by these important friends who appreciated my recognition of their service and sacrifices.

William Pleasant Tyree is the most interesting of all the Tyrees. His accomplishments were extraordinary given the conditions he faced during the time he lived (1821-1874). He was many things during his life: pioneer, soldier, prospector, carpenter, innkeeper, businessman, farmer, politician, and the father of eight children. Throughout his life, he was motivated to serve his neighbors and his community. He was the very definition of public service. William Pleasant Tyree was a patriot whose story deserves to be told.
