Recent discoveries in Quantum Mechanics have proved that there is no discrete particle or solid chunk of anything in the whole Physical Universe. It is all standing waves arising from the seething zero-point field created by cosmic beings like you and me. The properties of mass, inertia, charge and gravity are the result of space resonances produced by zero-point scalar waves. This book with color pictures details the theory, models and mathematics of zero-point scalar waves, gravity, magnetism, biophotonics, the creation of 200 trillion year old orbs that we take with us between bodies, the source of evil, the basis of vibrational healing and psychic abilities, who you really are, how hypnotism works, how your personal orb affects you, our prison planet, and how to photograph orbs. Your orb is an insidious and diabolical quantum computer that disables you and ruins your lives. If you want to know how things work in this and other universes, read this book.

A tale of invention and adventure, along with a story of an impossible love.

The book "Guitar Shapes Navigator" deals with the determination of the positions of characteristic points, lines, distances and shapes of parts of the guitar as a whole. In contrast to technical drawings, "Guitar Shapes Navigator" does not use classic dimensions, but mainly the coordinates of the positions of the end points, center points, etc. Everything takes place in the X and Y coordinates of the normal Cartesian system. The third dimension, the Z coordinate, is used as needed. And the main role is played by the origin, the Z E R O P O I N T - actually invisible under the bridge.

The minor pentatonic scale is the most crucial in a guitarist's arsenal, but all too often we learn a box pattern or two and leave it at that, limiting ourselves to cliched licks and run of the mill phrasing. This book, with information presented in a clear, simple and logical manner, sets the aspiring lead guitarist free from tedious and unwieldy box patterns and helps you unleash your potential all over the fretboard! The major scale is the root of all theory and harmony, but many guitarists are intimidated by the jargon that surrounds the scale and its associated modes. In Pt. 2 of this book, the major scale is deconstructed and demystified and the modes of the major scale unlocked. Your playing will never be the same after you've absorbed the rhythm and lead patterns this book contains! Take the step and revolutionise your playing today!
