"Dog-days and Vengeance Ways" & "Choices"

Author:  Nick Moran  Founder of One Self

As Nick says: "The only way to achieve meaningful and lasting success, happiness and peace of mind is through the Self. Think about it. Whose ever made a difference by doing what the world says they should do? We all need to find our answers within ourselves."

Nick  has developed programs using proven and realistic methodologies  to assist people in gaining a better understanding of themselves, their motivations, actions and ultimately their lives. The programs are simple, easy to understand and use the individuals own experiences in order to reach and uncover the only true power there is....the power of ones Self.  Once in touch with that power, there is literally nothing an individual cannot achieve.

The Bible and Wildlife

The reader is provided with some of the present day wildlife conservation practices and looks at and compares these with those in biblical times. The book identifies governmental agencies and private groups who are involved with this conservation effort. It also provides some information about the threats to sound wildlife conservation. This book is written in easy to read language. It avoids the technical jargon which can often put a person to sleep. There are eight chapters along with 13 illustrations by artist, Darcy Gerdes. Thirty-eight biblical texts are quoted and the reader is provided with 48 other biblical references if he desires to further examine what the bible has to say.

The present wildlife conservation practices are taken from 29 references listed in the book along with experiences while the author worked as a wildlife manager/biologist. The author has a total of 46 years working with wildlife and their living requirements. If the reader desires to examine more closely today's wildlife conservation, six books are suggested for further reading. The animal rights movement has had considerable press coverage in recent years. Some information is included regarding this movement.
