Bird Flu or 108 Insights Into Tai Chi Chuan

Bird Flu: Everything You Need to Know

Author: John Farndon


A bird flu pandemic is inevitable-so we are told. First identified in China, this apparently merciless virus, which originated in chickens, has the potential to mutate and kill thousands, even millions of people. John Farndon offers a compact, one-stop read that tells it straight. The public doesn't want to spend months doing research, and Bird Flu provides readers with all the necessary information.


This is something that can't be pushed aside and ignored——people really do need to know if there is anything to fear, and if so, what can they do about it?

108 Insights Into Tai Chi Chuan: A String of Pearls

Author: Michael Gilman

A delightful variety of entries related to or arising from over thirty years of taiji and related practices. This is his second book of his meditations and it is well worth the investment-- More than a personal journal of daily meditations, 101 Reflections is instructional as well as inspirational. . . . What makes this set of reflections most valuable, however, is that while Gilman shares his expertise, experience, and philosophical approach; his is not a didactic voice. While he is not afraid to draw his own parallels between taiji practice and living fully in one's life, his intention seems to be only to share, not to insist . . . . it offers something for everyone. . .is deep, lyrical, and grounded in practicality.
