Robert Sherman was a 25-year-old kid who thought he knew everything about the world. One day, Russia invaded Ukraine, and the young journalist who had spent his time covering local politics found himself smack dab in the middle of the world's biggest geopolitical crisis -- fleeing air raids and getting accused by local authorities of being a Russian spy. A year later, he found himself in the Middle East running from rockets and diving into Hamas tunnels in Gaza. There's no textbook that teaches you that. In the end Robert's whole view of the world changed and he quickly realized its the simple things in life that matter most: family, home, community, and time. I'm attaching an excerpt of the book here too

ORIGIN OF MIND: The Conscious Mind and 3-D Images in the Brain

ORIGIN OF MIND:

The Conscious Mind and 3-D Images in the Brain

Fully illustrated throughout with challenging 3-D illusions and some of the most extreme examples of the “spooky action” of the brain from bizarre beliefs we still hold true, to ideas of sexual attraction, this book takes us through a new perspective on how words create our very perception of reality, from the point where consciousness and cognition of our mind kick in, to the study of how easily any stimulus, even pain, can be associated with any response, even pleasure. This accounts for the 700 named phobias and the 547 sexual paraphilias identified by Anil Aggrawal. In a review of old and new evidence, we find explanations for the "spooky action" of the conscious mind and how the mind is deceived by the brain.
This sets the stage for a journey through your own mind. The first ideas embedded in our brain by others, like the language we speak, become the criteria by which we judge all things. All of this is learned through a process so subtle and so unconscious that it is taken for granted. We see this daily in our politics, our religions, our sports, and our personal relationships.
AI, or Artificial Intelligence, scans the internet, picking up relevant facts, images, and ideas, and presents them in an organized form. The brain has its own version of AI that scans our memories, selects relevant information, and presents reality to our conscious mind as reality. From this reality, our conscious mind "sees" what the brain has been “hard-wired” to perceive by our earliest experiences. This applies to language, ideas, religion, politics…
CHAPTER I ORIGIN OF THE BRAIN. Learning does not just give the brain information to use in processing, as a computer; it changes the brain itself so completely that it creates a new reality in the brain. From this reality, our conscious mind "sees" what the brain has been “hard-wired” to perceive by our earliest experiences. This applies to language, ideas, religion, politics…
CHAPTER II PSYCHOLOGY’S THEORY OF RELATIVITY Learning, at its core, goes beyond merely associating two stimuli. It involves forming an impression in the brain of all the visual, auditory, and sensory experiences happening at the same time. Through repeated exposure to the same stimuli, these experiences can create a perception. By connecting multiple perceptions, one can develop a concept (or a learning set, or an algorithm, or a heuristic) into a concept. Perception Can Determine Experience
CHAPTER III Learning happens with no conscious awareness, and we have limited ability to change our brain’s perception.
CHAPTER IV Origin of the Individual We are not born knowing who we are. We are not born knowing who our mother is. We have no clue even what species we are. We have no language to speak. We are the center of our own unique world of experience. Everything relates to us. This gives us the perception of a separate and self-conscious mind.
CHAPTER V THE CONSCIOUS MIND The relatively high speed of the Beta waves of our brain, which scan across the cortex, linked to areas deep inside, combined with our focus of attention, is what makes consciousness possible. Our learned experiences allow the brain to anticipate whatever will come next.
CHAPTER VI THE ILLUSION OF THOUGHT, RELATIVITY: The fact that we can think has created the illusion that we do think.
CHAPTER VII INVISIBLE PERCEPTION Learning is so profoundly important that it changes the biology of your brain.
CHAPTER VIII PERMUTATIONS The Third Variable of Relativity
CHAPTER IX THE CONSCIOUS MIND AND THE PROGRAMMED MIND

Kriegsmarine

Kriegsmarine

By Ralph L. Myers

What if the most dangerous battlefield is not the Atlantic, but the bond between two boys whose lives are destined to meet on opposite sides of war?

Kriegsmarine opens not with battle, but with memory: an older Gerhardt “Gerry” Kroner returns to his childhood home in Hartzstein, Pennsylvania, and the house itself becomes a portal. Every room, smell, and object pulls him backward into a German American boyhood shaped by immigrant families, strict parents, and the fierce, almost inseparable friendship he shared with Karl Schuour. Their small-town world is vivid with autumn streets, schoolyard competitions, bicycles, swings, and the constant need to outdo one another—a rivalry the story makes clear will become both “a blessing - and a curse.”

From there, the novel expands into something much larger than nostalgia. Gerry and Karl grow up, follow different paths, and are carried into World War II, with Gerry serving in the U.S. Navy and Karl drawn into Germany’s naval machine. The story’s emotional engine lies in that split. One boyhood friendship is stretched across nationality, loyalty, and history itself, until the competition of childhood becomes a deadly adult collision between commanders at sea. The book places Karl at the center of the German U-boat campaign as captain of U-53, while Gerry develops anti-submarine strategies for Allied convoys—turning memory, rivalry, and warfare into one continuous thread.

It carries some of the pressure-cooker tension associated with classic submarine war dramas, but its true pulse is personal. Karl is not framed as a simple emblem of the Reich; he is trapped inside a collapsing moral world, horrified by Nazi brutality and torn between duty, love, and conscience. That conflict sharpens when his wife and children become bound up in a desperate attempt to flee, and the war stops being abstract strategy and becomes a question of whether a man can remain human inside a machine built for obedience and destruction.

What makes Kriegsmarine matter is that it refuses to separate war from memory: the swing in the yard, the old house, the buried keepsakes, and the childhood dares all echo inside the sonar-dark waters of the Atlantic.

Sometimes history’s cruelest weapon is not hatred, but the way it turns love, loyalty, and friendship into opposing flags.

Dirty Millions the Clean Way

If you read this book to the end and live to talk about it later, your life will change forever.

This book (Dirty Millions the Clean Way/The Book Movie) is also designed to open the readers’ minds, blowing the dust-off untapped brainpower, as we discussed topics that have affected some more deeply than others. At the same time, it will ignite a spark within each of us, inspiring us to make daily changes that will significantly impact all our future endeavors. As you continue to read this unorthodox book with an open mind and your head held high, almost everything will mysteriously change for the better. You will become proud in your thoughts and have a new, optimistic hope for the world's future.

In this book/movie, you will sometimes visit the past, bringing it into the present, as you may still harbor some prejudice in your heart and mind. God has provided everything needed for His most incredible human creation to live a full, whole life of complete creative potential. How can we still dwell together on this “spaceship" we call Earth, knowing of the many people who are still suffering each day from the lack of basic survival needs, which gives dignity to all? As this “spaceship” (Earth) continues to revolve around the warmth of the sun each day, it provides an abundance of the three essential needs, food, air, and water for all of mankind to share and consume, not just the privileged few due to their country location, faith, wealth, inheritance, or birth geography.

Self-prejudice is a 100% curable disease through self-determination, psychiatrists, dignity for all, new laws forcing the wealthy to share the wealth, and prayer! As you continue to read this "unorthodox" book with an open mind, all of humanity will begin to change in your mindset as you read to the end, if possible. For centuries, restrictions have kept a particular group of people poor in mind, body, and spirit, and this will also change soon, through this book. This book will give you the hope you have longed for without changing your core values or personal beliefs.
