Harmony. New. Harmony, 2020 New For over twenty-five years Deepak Chopra, MD and Rudolph E Tanzi, PhD have revolutionized medicine and how we understand our minds and our bodies--Chopra, the leading expert in the field of integrative medicine; Tanzi, the pioneering neuroscientist and discoverer of genes that cause Alzheimer's Disease After reaching millions of people around the world through their collaborations on the hugely successful Super Brain and Super Genes books and public television programs, the New York Times bestselling authors now present a groundbreaking, landmark work on the supreme importance of our immune system in relation to our lifelong healthIn the face of environmental toxins, potential epidemics, superbugs, and the accelerated aging process, the significance of achieving optimum health has never been more crucial--and the burden to achieve it now rests on individuals making the right lifestyle choices every dayThat means you You--not doctors, not pharmaceutical companies--are ultimately responsible for your own healthChopra and Tanzi want to help readers make the best decisions possible when it comes to creating a holistic and transformative health plan for life In The Healing Self they not only push the boundaries of the intellect to bring readers the newest research and insights on the mind-body, mind-gene, and mind-immunity connections, but they offer a cutting-edge, seven-day action plan, which outlines the key tools everyone needs to develop their own effective and personalized path to self-healingIn addition, The Healing Self closely examines how we can best manage chronic stress and inflammation, which are immerging as the primary detriments of well-being Moreover, Chopra and Tanzi turn their attention to a host of chronic disorders such as hypertension, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer's Disease, known to take years and sometimes decades to develop before the first symptoms appear Contemporary medical systems aren't set to attend to prolonged low-grade chronic inflammation or the everyday infections and stresses that take their toll on the body and can lead to disease, aging, and death Thus, learning the secrets of self-healing is not only urgent but mandatory for optimum health The Healing Self then is a call to action, a proven, strategic program that will arm readers with the information they need to protect themselves and achieve lifelong wellnessThere is a new revolution occurring in health today That revolution is you, Harmony, 6, New York: Dell Publishing Company, 1975.

For thirty-five years, Ultra had remained a closely guarded secret. Now it is revealed by the man who ran the whole incredible momentous operation. Now for the first time we can see how World War II was really won. The British under Winston Churchill could have saved Coventry, for they had advance warning of the German air strike. Instead, they chose to sacrifice those lives and many others at different times and places rather than reveal to Hitler and the German High Command that the Allies had cracked the German "unbreakable" code, and now know the most secret enemy orders and plans, sometimes even before the German field commanders. Frederick William Winterbotham CBE (16 April 1897 - 28 January 1990) was a British Royal Air Force officer (latterly a Group Captain) who during World War II supervised the distribution of Ultra intelligence. His book The Ultra Secret was the first popular account of Ultra to be published in Britain. He was recruited to join the staff of the Royal Air Force, where he was assigned to the newly created Air Section of the Secret Intelligence Service (MI-6). During the next few interwar years, Winterbotham began the process of building up an intelligence service for the RAF. His job was to gather information on the development of military aviation in hostile or potentially hostile countries. He recruited agents, and filed and analyzed their reports. One of these reports revealed that Germany had secret arrangements with the Soviet Union for the training of military pilots in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. William de Ropp, the agent who supplied this information, also informed Winterbotham that the Nazis, not yet in power, wanted to cultivate high-level contacts in Britain; they imagined that "imperialist" Britain would be sympathetic to their own dreams of racial conquest. Winterbotham, who was socially well connected, seemed a likely channel. This led to a visit by Nazi "philosopher" Alfred Rosenberg in 1932. Winterbotham, with the full knowledge of MI-6, escorted Rosenberg around Britain, made some appropriate introductions, and played up to him. Neither Ropp nor Rosenberg knew that Winterbotham had any intelligence connectionshe was just a civilian official of the Air Staff. Winterbotham continued in this role for the next seven years. Ultra remained secret even after the war. Then in 1974, Winterbotham's book, The Ultra Secret, was published. This was the first book in English about Ultra, and it explained what Ultra was, and revealed Winterbotham's role, particularly with regard to the dissemination and use of Ultra. There had been mentions of Enigma decryption in earlier books by W adys aw Kozaczuk, Ladislas Farago and Gustave Bertrand. However, Winterbotham's book was the first extensive account of the uses to which the massive volumes of Enigma-derived intelligence were put by the Allies, on the western and eastern European fronts, in the Mediterranean, North Africa, and perhaps most crucially, in the Battle of the Atlantic. Derived from a Kirkus review: Surprisingly, it is only now being revealed that the Allied leaders -- Roosevelt, Churchill, Eisenhower, Montgomery and all the principal Chiefs of Staff -- had access to most secret orders of Hitler and his generals (and later to those of the Japanese) all through WW II. For security reasons, this has not been made public before, and it will almost certainly call for revised opinion on the sometimes seemingly wrongheaded logic of certain high-command decisions. This amazing direct plug-in to the Nazi plans was brought about by British Secret Intelligence's -- the author was an officer with the service -- possession of the Germans' Enigma electric code-computer, a machine which produced an impregnable scramble of numbers for words and key phrases. The Enigma was used throughout the German forces, even in U-boats, to receive secret orders by radiowave, and the British had its own ""Bronze Goddesses"" picking up every signal. It would seem that the war might have been won much sooner with this tremendous intelligence advantage, but the fact was that Britain in the early war years had pitifully small resources with which to reply to German movements and troop mobilizations. If we knew every maneuver -- and Winterbotham builds a good case that this was so -- that the Germans planned for every major (and minor) offensive they mounted then this is stunning news. The text is filled with incidents and reads like a high-spirited narrative., Dell Publishing Company, 1975, 2<

New York: Harper Row, 1978. 222 pp., 8 1/2" H. "Even before the Nazis came to power in the 1930s, Frederick Winterbotham was sent by British Intelligence to Germany to befriend the Nazi leaders and learn as much as he could about their plans. After Hitler took over the government in 1933, he continued his assignment, meeting with Hitler himself, Goering, Rosenberg and a number of generals, visiting military bases, witnessing manoeuvres, and assessing the capabilities of the new German Air Force. He played his role so well over the years that the Germans fully accepted him as a loyal friend. He describes how he was recruited for this dangerous job, how he obtained other agends (once carrying $10,000 in a suitcase to pay one of them), what it was like entertaining young German pilots so that they would tell him what he wanted to know, and how he learned which high French officials were on the Nazi payroll. His chronicle is full of anecdotes about agents, double agents and Nazi officials. The result is an absolutely fascinating inside account of a top-level spy at work."

"Even before the Nazis came to power in the 1930s, Frederick Winterbotham was sent by British Intelligence to Germany to befriend the Nazi leaders and learn as much as he could about their plans. After Hitler took over the government in 1933, he continued his assignment, meeting with Hitler himself, Goering, Rosenberg and a number of generals, visiting military bases, witnessing manoeuvres, and assessing the capabilities of the new German Air Force. He played his role so well over the years that the Germans fully accepted him as a loyal friend. He describes how he was recruited for this dangerous job, how he obtained other agends (once carrying $10,000 in a suitcase to pay one of them), what it was like entertaining young German pilots so that they would tell him what he wanted to know, and how he learned which high French officials were on the Nazi payroll. His chronicle is full of anecdotes about agents, double agents and Nazi officials. The result is an absolutely fascinating inside account of a top-level spy at work." Slight twist to the spine, minor edge wear. Dust jacket is price clipped, has very light edge wear, light rubbing, some minor edge browning.. Not Signed. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good., Harper Row, 1978, 3, New York: Dell Publishing Company, 1975. First Dell Printing [stated]. Mass market paperback. Fair. 286, [2] pages. Front cover separated and reattached with clear tape. Includes Acknowledgments, Preface, Foreword, and Index. Also includes chapters on introduction, Science to the Rescue: The Birth of Ultra; The Plan; The Battle of France; Interlude; The Battle of Britain; Operation Sea Lion; The African Campaign, Alamein; Naval Affairs and Briefing the Americans; "Torch"; "Husky"; "Avalanche"; Preparation for 'Overlord'; The Battle of Normandy; Hitler's Miracles; The Beginning of the End; Arnhem; The Japanese War; Hitler's Ardennes Offensive; "Gotterdammerung"; Conclusion, and Index. For thirty-five years, Ultra had remained a closely guarded secret. Now it is revealed by the man who ran the whole incredible momentous operation. Now for the first time we can see how World War II was really won. The British under Winston Churchill could have saved Coventry, for they had advance warning of the German air strike. Instead, they chose to sacrifice those lives and many others at different times and places rather than reveal to Hitler and the German High Command that the Allies had cracked the German "unbreakable" code, and now know the most secret enemy orders and plans, sometimes even before the German field commanders. Frederick William Winterbotham CBE (16 April 1897 - 28 January 1990) was a British Royal Air Force officer (latterly a Group Captain) who during World War II supervised the distribution of Ultra intelligence. His book The Ultra Secret was the first popular account of Ultra to be published in Britain. He was recruited to join the staff of the Royal Air Force, where he was assigned to the newly created Air Section of the Secret Intelligence Service (MI-6). During the next few interwar years, Winterbotham began the process of building up an intelligence service for the RAF. His job was to gather information on the development of military aviation in hostile or potentially hostile countries. He recruited agents, and filed and analyzed their reports. One of these reports revealed that Germany had secret arrangements with the Soviet Union for the training of military pilots in violation of the Treaty of Versailles. William de Ropp, the agent who supplied this information, also informed Winterbotham that the Nazis, not yet in power, wanted to cultivate high-level contacts in Britain; they imagined that "imperialist" Britain would be sympathetic to their own dreams of racial conquest. Winterbotham, who was socially well connected, seemed a likely channel. This led to a visit by Nazi "philosopher" Alfred Rosenberg in 1932. Winterbotham, with the full knowledge of MI-6, escorted Rosenberg around Britain, made some appropriate introductions, and played up to him. Neither Ropp nor Rosenberg knew that Winterbotham had any intelligence connectionshe was just a civilian official of the Air Staff. Winterbotham continued in this role for the next seven years. Ultra remained secret even after the war. Then in 1974, Winterbotham's book, The Ultra Secret, was published. This was the first book in English about Ultra, and it explained what Ultra was, and revealed Winterbotham's role, particularly with regard to the dissemination and use of Ultra. There had been mentions of Enigma decryption in earlier books by W adys aw Kozaczuk, Ladislas Farago and Gustave Bertrand. However, Winterbotham's book was the first extensive account of the uses to which the massive volumes of Enigma-derived intelligence were put by the Allies, on the western and eastern European fronts, in the Mediterranean, North Africa, and perhaps most crucially, in the Battle of the Atlantic. Derived from a Kirkus review: Surprisingly, it is only now being revealed that the Allied leaders -- Roosevelt, Churchill, Eisenhower, Montgomery and all the principal Chiefs of Staff -- had access to most secret orders of Hitler and his generals (and later to those of the Japanese) all through WW II. For security reasons, this has not been made public before, and it will almost certainly call for revised opinion on the sometimes seemingly wrongheaded logic of certain high-command decisions. This amazing direct plug-in to the Nazi plans was brought about by British Secret Intelligence's -- the author was an officer with the service -- possession of the Germans' Enigma electric code-computer, a machine which produced an impregnable scramble of numbers for words and key phrases. The Enigma was used throughout the German forces, even in U-boats, to receive secret orders by radiowave, and the British had its own ""Bronze Goddesses"" picking up every signal. It would seem that the war might have been won much sooner with this tremendous intelligence advantage, but the fact was that Britain in the early war years had pitifully small resources with which to reply to German movements and troop mobilizations. If we knew every maneuver -- and Winterbotham builds a good case that this was so -- that the Germans planned for every major (and minor) offensive they mounted then this is stunning news. The text is filled with incidents and reads like a high-spirited narrative., Dell Publishing Company, 1975, 2<
