Dr. Harry Fisch, a leading expert in male infertility, shares groundbreaking information about the bodily and behavioral changes that happen over the course of a man’s lifetime. Busting the myth that men don’t have biological clocks, Dr. Henry Fisch emphasizes that even young men can have testosterone levels as low as those of much older men, leading to infertility, sexual problems, and other serious health issues. Every couple should know all the risks and issues facing men, because these affect two of the most important things in their life: their ability to have children and their capacity to have good sex. The Male Biological Clock is a must read for every man and every couple who is struggling to have children or improve their sex life. Many of Dr. Harry Fisch's findings are startling—beginning with the fact that infertility is not mostly a women's problem—and he offers many helpful suggestions for how to deal with declining testosterone, changing sexual needs, and the fertility industry. The Male Biological Clock tells you what you need to know and how you can achieve optimal fertility and sexuality.

Oxygen-deprived for two hours at birth, Christopher Nolan lived to write, at age twenty-one, the autobiography of his childhood, told as the story of Joseph Meehan. He wrote the book, using a "unicorn stick" attached to his head, letter by painful letter. The result is astonishingly lyrical, filled with powerful description, touching moments of triumph and humiliation, and, above all, disarming wit. It is, in the words of London's Daily Express, "a book of sheer wonder".

This book will tell you what the fake media never will: our society is like a bus about to go over a cliff. You can hope that someone else will stop it, or you can stop it yourself. This is addressed to the few heroes who will do whatever is necessary to save our society and civilization. Forget congressmen and parliamentarians. They are just managers who are stuck to the status quo, not leaders. The kind of leader we need is called the One- o-clock man, a tough, principled, and driven male. If you are one of these heroes, this book is for you. Will Jones is a creative engineer. He believes that engineering is the highest form of art because it conforms to truth. For example, Newcomen's steam engine, Telford's bridge, the Wright brothers plane, Tesla's induction motor, all worked magnificently. They weren't hype or wishful thinking. Politics in our time, on the contrary, has become the art of the lie. Our civilization will never work magnificently without a revolution that makes it conform to the truth.
