Too Close to Call
Price range: $15.99 through $22.99Homicides are down in the cities, but accidental death rates are up. Why? Buf Collins investigates and gets embroiled in presidential re-election politics.
William Buford (Buf) Collins, VI is trying to help an old friend find out what happened to her husband who turned up dead in a hotel room. They are sure that he was murdered, but the city officials do not agree. There was no gunshot or knife wound. So, according to them it’s an accidental death.
It turns out there is a lot of this going around in all the major U. S. cities.
Someone in the FBI notices this and writes a report and the sitting president appoints a special prosecutor to look into the matter.
Buf Collins’ father-in-law is a very wealthy and powerful man and he gets the president to name Buf Collins as the special prosecutor. The opposing party suddenly loses its presumptive nominee for the presidential election and the old man somehow is able to get Buf nominated! Crazy!
The president is now in a classic political quandary: He appointed Collins to look into the possibility of corruption in the cities, but now his appointee is his opponent. He can’t dismiss him as this would look like he is using his power to his own advantage. And, as Collins is unable to get a continuance on the case, he is precluded from campaigning.
The judge on the case decides to let the media cameras into the courtroom. The president feels like he can’t compete with Collins who is fighting city hall on national t.v. and seeming is winning. So, he tries to undermine Collins’ case in order to ensure that he loses and thus will look bad to the public. He gets the charges to be upgraded from corruption to conspiracy. But, Collins is ready and handles the change seamlessly. Then, the president gets the Attorney General to upgrade the charges from conspiracy to cover up. And, Collins handles this as well.
All the time the election is getting closer, and closer . . .

I am a thirty-eight-year-old man in a fourteen-year-old’s body! I can’t tell anyone, or they would lock me up, thinking I’m crazy! I know I would.

What’s Your (Analyst’s) Diagnosis? Truth (Or Fantasy)?: An Essay On Human Perception
Price range: $3.99 through $10.99Human perception of reality, and scientific advancement, is linked to the truthfulness of verbal and mathematical description(s) of real event(s). Human verbal and mathematical descriptions of reality reveal psychic reality of those persons projecting the descriptions and relate to prior real experiences or verbalizations of others.
This book presents as natural phenomena:
- “Free will” of human perception, or its absence, results from the truthfulness, or fantasy world conceptualization, of a primary relationship.
- The ‘”Unified Field Theory of Charged Particle Relation(s) and Mass-Energy Transformation(s)” gives universal understanding of positive, and negative, realities of the universe and unifies, by truthful mathematical ”identification”, the three current theories of physics.
- “Structural Development” of the ”personality” is an ”identification” process of the ”self”, as a being, apart from the genetic person. To use Einstein’s words, it is ”apart from humanity”.

The Blossoming of the World: Essays and Images
$13.99In The Blossoming of the World, Brian H. Peterson-author of the critically acclaimed The Smile at the Heart of Things-picks up both pen and camera and journeys to the deep end of life.
