They follow on from still rages, while AIDS has reached epi- demic "biological time-bomb" proportions. "It is time to wake up!" declares Robert E. Lee, an Illinois-based academic specialising in psychology and social sciences and the author of two previous books on AIDS. He has made an objective assessment of peer- reviewed studies in the US, UK and France since the early 20th century which reveal an extensive history of research into acquired diseases and immunodeficiency—indeed, research with a view to initiating such immunologic disturbances. Pointing out that AIDS had no historical precedent, came without warning and could not have had an African green monkey or chimpanzee origin, Lee refutes any connec- tion with rare AIDS-like cases going back to the 1930s. He thus concludes it is highly . 5 likely that AIDS, or at least HIV-1, was bio- Schauberger's writings collected in the engineered and deliberately introduced into third volume, The Fertile Earth, emphasise specific target groups.

They follow on from The Water Wizard and Nature as Teacher. Schauberger's writings collected in the third volume, The Fertile Earth, emphasise nature's subtle energies and their correct use in agriculture, soil fertilisation and forestry. By observing nature's forces and energies in action, Schauberger learned her secrets and come to understand what happens when the delicate balance is overstepped by unen- lightened human interference. He applied his knowledge to improving soil fertility and increasing productivity in harmony with the Earth, and his practical advice is applicable in farm and forestry management today.
