Man has always been on a quest seeking knowledge, wisdom and understanding to the degree that they will sacrifice money, time and energy to gain such. It is very important that we recognize that true wisdom and knowledge begins with our Creator. It is within the creation of a thing, that we find the purpose of a thing. God holds the reign of true wisdom and understanding of ALL things because He is the Creator of EVERYTHING. Once we get to a place of understanding who God is, then we can understand what "things" are. In Proverbs 9:10 The scriptures declare that the beginning of wisdom starts with the reverence of God. As we take this journey in discovering how important the mind is, let us also visit the sights that God has already destined and purposed on our journey to truly discover Him.

A "powerful and indispensable" look at the devastating consequences of environmental racism (Gerald Markowitz) -- and what we can do to remedy its toxic effects on marginalized communities. Did you know... Middle-class African American households with incomes between $50,000 and $60,000 live in neighborhoods that are more polluted than those of very poor white households with incomes below $10,000. When swallowed, a lead-paint chip no larger than a fingernail can send a toddler into a coma -- one-tenth of that amount will lower his IQ. Nearly two of every five African American homes in Baltimore are plagued by lead-based paint. Almost all of the 37,500 Baltimore children who suffered lead poisoning between 2003 and 2015 were African American. From injuries caused by lead poisoning to the devastating effects of atmospheric pollution, infectious disease, and industrial waste, Americans of color are harmed by environmental hazards in staggeringly disproportionate numbers. This systemic onslaught of toxic exposure and institutional negligence causes irreparable physical harm to millions of people across the country-cutting lives tragically short and needlessly burdening our health care system. But these deadly environments create another insidious and often overlooked consequence: robbing communities of color, and America as a whole, of intellectual power. The 1994 publication of The Bell Curve and its controversial thesis catapulted the topic of genetic racial differences in IQ to the forefront of a renewed and heated debate. Now, in A Terrible Thing to Waste, award-winning science writer Harriet A. Washington adds her incisive analysis to the fray, arguing that IQ is a biased and flawed metric, but that it is useful for tracking cognitive damage. She takes apart the spurious notion of intelligence as an inherited trait, using copious data that instead point to a different cause of the reported African American-white IQ gap: environmental racism - a confluence of racism and other institutional factors that relegate marginalized communities to living and working near sites of toxic waste, pollution, and insufficient sanitation services. She investigates heavy metals, neurotoxins, deficient prenatal care, bad nutrition, and even pathogens as chief agents influencing intelligence to explain why communities of color are disproportionately affected -- and what can be done to remedy this devastating problem. Featuring extensive scientific research and Washington's sharp, lively reporting, A Terrible Thing to Waste is sure to outrage, transform the conversation, and inspire debate.

Christopher J. Scarver's latest book, A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste, is a unique look at America (e.g. its ghettos, housing projects, and prisons through the eyes of a self-rehabilitated American prisoner (Christopher) who was once labeled by government officials as one of the "worst of the worst" prisoners in the United States and sent to ADX-Florence, CO (aka "the Alcatraz of the Rockies") where America's other "worst of the worst" were and are kept.It is important for the "Land of the Free" to see itself from the perspective of its disenfranchised forgotten citizens-particularly, its prisoners, (whose voices are effectively muzzled by the government), because America does not look the same from the ghetto, nor from behind America's many prison bars and razor-wired electrocuting fences. It is also important for all American citizens to know the hidden influences that commonly turn innocent infants into insane adults and/or guilty grownups.The reader will discover why present prison policies fail to produce the needed improvements in prisoners that taxpayers faithfully fund annually without any positive return on their investment.Drawing on insight gleaned from over 27 years of incarceration, Mr. Scarver concludes this work with his own list of solutions and/or prison reform measures needed to improve the people locked in US prisons and its impoverished areas in the free world.He is confident that, when implemented, these changes will end crime as we know it and shut down this hyper-profiteering corrupt system which exploits the ignorance and powerlessness of its most vulnerable citizens, all for greed-based purposes.

My book is a comedy and a social satire about how everyone starts out idealistically chomping at the bit to use their mind to the fullest. (A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste after all according to that Old School Traditional philosophy.) But after a while it sooner or later dawns on most everyone that what they are really doing is wasting their mind anyway. (Not only because no one ever LISTENS, but because nothing works the way it has been talked up). Its an up close and personal picture of how it feels when life throws you a curved ball (or a lot of lemons from which you have to figure out how to make lemonade). Its an emotional snapshot of how traumatic it is when nothing works out the way you once thought it would. When all those wonderful ideas and oh, so compelling words and theories cease to make any sense. But, rather than offering the reader a roadmap, it attempts to give an explanation for why nothing ever works. And how it feels to spin your wheels when your back is to the wall. And youre neck and neck with all those nasty, infuriating unmentionables centering around all that social control. Along with the downside, however, there is an equal and opposite upside. The world of Songs (and Poetry) is held up as a guiding principle through which to regain your spiritual balance, gradually become unstuck and once again able to reboot yourself in a new direction. Its also much more than a blame yourself for everything and get out of your own way guilt trip since it rejects all those simplistic clich solutions found in Psychology books. Attempting instead to give the reader a much more focused insight into all those hard to put into words political, social and philosophical outside forces that affect why and how things can (and do) go wrong.
