The Altenberg 16: An Exposé of the Evolution Industry
By Suzan Mazur
The Altenberg 16: An Expose of the Evolution Industry, written by Suzan Mazur whose reports have appeared in the Financial Times, The Economist, Newsday, Archaeology, is a front row seat to the thinking of the great evolutionary science minds of our time. The book grew out of an article Mazur wrote in 2008: “Altenberg! The Woodstock of Evolution?” about 16 scientists meeting outside Vienna to reformulate the neo-Darwinian theory of evolution, a story Science said “reverberated throughout the evolutionary biology community” and resulted in Mazur being banned from the Altenberg conference. However, she realized the story was bigger than Altenberg (which covered events beginning 500 million years ago) and interviewed dozens of scientists not invited, including those investigating pre-biotic evolution. Mazur says a positive sea change is taking place as the old science now gives way and the public is let in to the discourse via the Internet.

Holistic Anatomy: An Integrative Guide to the Human Body
By Pip Waller
In Holistic Anatomy, author Pip Waller provides a study of anatomy, physiology, and pathology, while expanding her discussion by connecting physical sciences with various alternative methods in an exploration of how humans exist in their natural environments. Waller incorporates basic scientific terms with informal, sometimes humorous observations and ideas about life while examining how human beings experience existence in emotional and spiritual terms. The first half of Holistic Anatomy covers basic human anatomy and physiology, and the second examines traditional and holistic models of both health and disease.

By Patrick Doud
The first young adult fiction book published by North Atlantic Books, The Winnitok Tales launches its series with The Hunt for the Eye of Ogin, an epic tale of thirteen-year old Elwood Pitch’s accidental trip from his home in modern-day Boston into Winnitok, an unknown world in a strange dimension. Set in a land reminiscent of the tense battlegrounds of natives and settlers in colonial New England, Doud provides readers with a captivating perspective of native people forced off their land, but with a magical twist. Drallah Wehr, the inspiring seventeen-year-old warrior and Elwood’s traveling companion, leads Elwood to understand the unique troubles of Winnitok, as they dodge evil demons, crawl through deadly poison ivy, and come face-to-face with witches and kings in their hunt for the restoration of peace in Winnitok, and with luck, a path leading Elwood home.
