Historia
When an impossibly shy young woman named Judy Morgan finishes her studies in Physics at Cambridge University, it is with dreams of changing the world for the better. Meanwhile, a beautiful, young Jewish woman decides to flee her beloved Austria, changing her name to Hedy Lamarr, and risking everything to get to America, as far away from the Nazi threat as possible.

why I finished this book
Revisado: 09-09-23
painful as it was, I finished so I could give this review -
the author clearly didn't do much research beyond milestones in Hedy Lamarr's life... clearly none into the different branches of physics, how a research project is structured, what goes into getting top secret clearance, or boats - and she missed that (supervisory )men in science are very happy to listen to women's ideas and claim them as their own ... not to mention the overuse of adjectives, telling rather than showing, and mono-dimensional characters that narrate analysis of their emotions...

Historia
An inside account of the fight to contain the world's deadliest diseases - and the panic and corruption that make them worse. The Next Pandemic is a firsthand account of disasters like anthrax, bird flu, and others - and how we could do more to prevent their return. It is both a gripping story of our brushes with fate and an urgent lesson on how we can keep ourselves safe from the inevitable next pandemic.

Historia
Lost in time, the town of Black Creek, Kentucky becomes home to temporal layers of people, creatures, and monsters from disparate eras. Journey beyond the time of humanity and witness the rewriting of mankind’s genesis. For Owen McCoy, a typical day on the job as head of security for Synergy, a research company conducting mysterious experiments, is boring at best. And that’s the way he likes it. Patrolling the Appalachian mountainside, where his now deceased father taught him how to hunt, is relaxing and connects him to the past.

fun read

the premise is rediculous - but the characters are engaging enough for one to suspend belief
