An ad is placed in the paper, telling only of a teacher seeking pupils. A disillusioned writer applies, only to come face to face with a surrealistic creature in the shape of a gorilla, named Ishmael.  The book itself, also titled Ishmael , written by Daniel Quinn, is the story of how the writer and the gorilla telepathically debate through a philosophical dialog on various aspects, morals, actions, events and beliefs of human history, trying to get at the core of our problems, and how we may yet salvage ourselves.

A Tap on the Window by Linwood Barclay is what I like to refer to as a good old detective murder mystery; the author doesn’t try any fancy tricks, and rather delivers us a compelling story with plenty enough twists and turns to keep us guessing. Just to give you a run-down of the plot, it follows private investigator Cal Weaver as one night he picks up a hitchhiking teenage girl, Claire Saunders.

Perhaps we will never figure out how this universe works and what precisely, if anything at all, governs over our fates, but we certainly have a lot of time left to figure things out, and David Wilcock has attempted to take us one step closer to the truth with the help of his book titled The Synchronicity Key .

Cecilia Fitzpatrick is living a relatively normal life, having three charming daughters, a husband with whom she has been living for fifteen years, and being the P&C President of a very successful Tupperware company. One day though, she stumbles upon a post-mortem letter written by her husband over fifteen years ago, right after the birth of their first child, and its contents turn her world upside down.

In the scientific world there are two main flow courses: there is mainstream science, and there is fringe science. What differentiates the two is that it is believed that mainstream science is more grounded in facts and reality while fringe science is about the exploration of the wilder theories about this universe.  For this reason, many do not take fringe science seriously, but the way I see it, The Source Field Investigations by David Wilcock will change all of that.
