Diseases caused by animal parasites remain, on a worldwide basis, among the principal causes of morbidity and mortality. This book gives the medical student-and the practitioner-the basic information about parasitic protozoa, worms, and anthropods and the diseases they cause that will enable the reader to recognize and manage them. One is impressed with the broad scope of the subject, the diversity of the parasitic modes of life, and how much there is yet unknown about the biology of parasitism. At the same time the book provides vignettes of the often fascinating historical background of our knowledge of animal parasites and glimpses of current research that is beginning to shape the future of parasitology. William Trager, PH.D. Professor Emeritus of Parasitology The Rockefeller University New York, New York Preface This book fills the need we have felt in teaching parasitic diseases to medical students. Many of the available texts are too detailed for what is inevitably an introductory course; others that do treat this subject with appropriate brevity are now out of date; still others lack documentation of references and thus fail to guide the readers to a broader understanding of this subject. We have addressed ourselves to medical students, but they are not our sole target. Clinicians unfamiliar with the complexities of parasitic diseases need a guide to the diagnosis and management of these infections. We intend our book to serve this function as well.

A decade in the making, The Observant Life: The Wisdom of Conservative Judaism for Contemporary Jews contains a century of thoughtful inquiry into the most profound of all Jewish questions: how to suffuse life with timeless values, how to remain loyal to the covenant that binds the Jewish people and the God of Israel and how to embrace the law while retaining an abiding sense of fidelity to one s own moral path in life. Written in a multiplicity of voices inspired by a common vision, the authors of The Observant Life explain what it means in the ultimate sense to live a Jewish life, and to live it honestly, morally, and purposefully. The work is a comprehensive guide to life in the 21st Century. Chapters on Jewish rituals including prayer, holiday, life cycle events and Jewish ethics such as citizenship, slander, taxes, wills, the courts, the work place and so much more . . . The Observant Life explains the way halakhah (Jewish law) impacts on the way Jews actually live in the world and interact with the world. It will serve as an excellent guide for anyone seeking to create a course devoted to contemporary Conservative theology and belief. The Observant Life is hailed by Jonathan D. Sarna, the Joseph H. &amp; Belle R. Braun Professor of American Jewish History at Brandeis University. With this volume, the Conservative movement spells out in unprecedented detail and wondrously accessible form how to live the observant life . Combining the timeless teachings of Judaism on a range of expected and unexpected topics, with a keen sensitivity to ethics and to the challenges of modern Jewish life, this guide provides a comprehensive and up-to-date answer to an age-old question: what does it mean to be a good Jew?

Over the past three decades, in addition to Chogyal Namkhai Norbu, with whom I co-authored the book Dream Yoga and the Practice of Natural Light many other important Tibetan Lamas have also published or taught on the subject of Dream Yoga. The advice of these teachers, some of whom have passed, as well as the profound dreams of other dharma students, have served as a rich mine of material for this comprehensive book.  In the modern era Sigmund Freud observed that the most common dreams are typically the product of our anxieties and preoccupations. The prevalence of common dreams has spawned mechanistic type theories by contemporary scientists hypothesizing the inconsequentiality of all dreams.  In this book I have attempted to balance the slate by consolidating information as to the function and meaning of dreams, and the transcendent possibilities they represent. In contrast to the aforementioned quasi scientific theories, rich Dream Yoga traditions attribute mystical and trans-personal value to some classes of dreams. Tibetan Buddhist Dream Yoga masters, along with teachers from other traditional cultures, recognizes that, while it is true that many dreams are relatively inconsequential in regards to content, some dreams have great significance.   Tibetan Buddhists distinguish between ordinary dreams and dreams of clarity, which may also include waking-dream visionary experience. The lamaic/shamanic masters of Dream Yoga understood the important spiritual reasons for developing one s capacity during sleep and dreaming. These capacities include visionary revelation, travel and contact with other dimensions, the advancement of culture and religion, the diagnosis of disease, assistance in healing and finally enlightenment. Dreams of clarity have been described by the Tibetan Buddhist masters of Dream Yoga as those dreams infused with greater awareness on the part of the dreamer.  Clarity type dreams, many of them characterized by lucidity, have fueled religious and cultural advancement, predicted the future, and led to spontaneous healing. Ancient peoples recognized that dreams often precipitated extraordinary creativity, or heralded great events.  In this book I include many extraordinary and inspiring examples of these clarity type dreams, both familiar and not, and the spiritual possibilities they represent. Additionally I have endeavored to present practical exercises drawn from dream yoga retreats, which will complement those of the original dream yoga book.  In the course of my research, I have been impressed with the truth of the old adage that there is nothing new under the sun. Recognizing this I have endeavored to continue the process of linking contemporary topics of dream work, including lucid dreaming, dream journeying, dream dramatization, and medical applications of dreams, with their roots as practiced by native peoples since time immemorial as begun in the seminal book Dream Yoga; The Practice of Natural Light .   The book Tibetan Dream Yoga; The Royal Road to Enlightenment acquaints and furthers the possibility of spiritual dream work through exposure to Tibetan Buddhist Dream Yoga teachings, as well as other shamanic traditions.
