Hardcover Print: $38.50 Did you know that the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has in the past, defined indoor air pollution as one of the most significant environmental threats to human health? This syndrome is relatively unknown and poorly researched. The causes of how a building can be considered “sick” will be explained and discussed. The prevention and some solutions for the syndrome, known as SBS, will be discussed. The ventilation issues that promote SBS will be broached. Chemical contamination, such as outdoor and indoor contaminants will be reviewed. Biological contamination caused by bacteria, viruses, and molds will be explained extensively. I will review methods for the prevention of SBS and offer some solutions. This will benefit you and all the people who work, live, or play in the building. In the last chapter I will explain in detail about my plan for the creation of a Team to monitor your building and any complaints regarding SBS.

Print: $15.00 Download: $10.00 This book’s creation was done by chance. A group of my co-workers were discussing Christmas and why decorations, trees, and other customs are practiced. Have you ever wondered the same? One question was regarding the Christmas tree. Where did the idea originate? Whom might be responsible for the tradition? Was a person responsible for the tree or was it a cultural phenomena that grew. I am going to ask you to think back to your first memory of Christmas. It probably includes a memory of a decorated and brightly lit tree surrounded by colorfully wrapped presents. A smile always can be seen on even the most selfish and bitter person when viewing a well designed Christmas tree.

Print: $9.99 Download: $2.50 As a Registered Nurse I can honestly say that, “Laughter is Good Medicine.” A laugh lightens people’s mood and the atmosphere in a room. Laughter is sometimes seemingly contagious, and the laughter of one person can itself provoke laughter from others. According to Encyclopedia.com, “"The physical and psychological benefits of laughter come second only to the physical and psychological benefits of sex." Sounds great to me and probably to most normal people.
