"Goldstein's riotous novel about a wacky biotech startup runs the gamut from plausible to outlandish, with all the action happening at a frenetic pace." - Kirkus ReviewsMeet Liz Cleaver, the heiress to a marijuana empire who's on a mission to find a budget-friendly dental solution for her foundation's clinics. But beneath her altruistic façade lies an embezzlement plot. To cover her freewheeling spending, she sets her sights on biotech startup TeeGentics. Meanwhile, Werner Brandt, TeeGentics beleaguered CEO, is struggling to keep his company afloat as the company's genetically created teeth inexplicably keep dying. He is forced to navigate around hazards; a bossy misanthropic investor; an inept project manager; two Klingon culture fans; and last, but not least, Werner's attractive administrative assistant. As tensions rise and investors grow increasingly impatient, there is plenty of distraction-from love affairs, political maneuvering, FBI investigations and side effects ranging from bizarre to disastrous, the story takes you on a riotous journey through the unpredictable world of experimenting with genetics for profit.
Why have the Jews been vilified throughout their history? Why the anti-Semitism? Historians from time immemorial have stated the main reason for this is that the Jews killed Jesus Christ: the crucifixion was at the behest of the Jews of Israel. Indeed, the Jews until this day do not accept Jesus as a prophet of God at all. This inability to recognise Jesus as a man sent by God has infuriated Christians for centuries. They see it as a rejection of God the father himself. Worthy of condemnation. Moreover, the Jews reject the mission of the Prophet Muhammad. They regard Muhammad as an imposter. Many see this rejection of two of the world's major religions as a selfish, inward looking characteristic of Judaism. What follows is the scriptural background to the rejection of Jesus by the Jews after which come quotations from history, many of them condemnatory and some of questionable authenticity. But intended to indicate the make-up of anti- Semitism, the discussion of which is not presented in a balanced way in present times.
This is a new release of the original 1936 edition.
The Gryll conquered Earth, destroyed its infrastructure, enslaved the human population and set civilization back hundreds of years. However they were not invincible. Plans were in motion to overthrow Earth's conquerors. But what problems would humanity face when the revolt succeeded? Pete had the organization in place and the vision to deal with them and baseball was a key element in his plan. Jimmy McClaren just wanted to play baseball. If he was good enough he could make the Major Leagues. That would be a lot better life than slaving for the Gryll doing field work. Jimmy had worked at learning baseball from his dad since he was five. That's when the farm team was started up by a coach named Pete. Jimmy had the skill and intelligence to become a major leaguer. However, Pete had other ideas.

The years 950-1200 have often been called the Golden Age of the Jews in Spain. During this period, the Jews reached a peak of achievement in all aspects of their life--political, spiritual and cultural. They produced great works of literature and philosophy; their poetry represented a peak of literary achievement unparalleled in Hebrew until the 20th century.
