Succinite Fossilized Resin Rediscovered: Alzheimer and dementia a new perspective on Baltic amber (en Inglés)
Reseña del libro "Succinite Fossilized Resin Rediscovered: Alzheimer and dementia a new perspective on Baltic amber (en Inglés)"
Peter M. Barczak developed the beginnings of his passion for geology and minerals while studying in one of the most important schools of modern Silesia in Poland - the Carolinum high school in Nysa. The first rector of this school was Christoph Scheiner, a world-famous Jesuit scholar, a mathematician and an astronomer whose observations contributed to the discovery of sunspots.A Nobel laureate, American biochemist Konrad Bloch also graduated from the school. The ancestors of an astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus, the creator of the heliocentric system, livedin this region too. In this environment the author became interested in biological sciences, chemistry, geography, and physics. Already at that time, a work was created in the field of geography concerning the area of the nearby mountains. The author began the next period of education in the field of engineering and economics, majoring in chemistry. Since that time he has also been collecting mineralogical specimens and fossils. Peter M. Barczak obtained a PhD in economics in the field of management. During this period, as part of his business activity, he began researching amber and plant extracts. His need to find answers to the mystery of "living resin" was supported by the European Union funds, which, through the National Center for Research and Development in Warsaw, approved the project entitled: "Development of Innovative Bio-nutraceuticals Based on Gypsywort and Natural Sources of Iodine". The author has consulted the content of the book with the Polish Academy of Sciences, Museum of Earth in Warsaw. He is the author of several works on amber, including the brochure: "Baltic Amber. Elixir of Immortality. Succinite Solution for Alzheimer's Disease and Dementia. Scientific Study" and "Amber. Elixir of Immortality: Health Properties of Compounds with Pharmacological Action". The author has used a number of scientific materials and over 200 photos and drawings, thanks to which the scientific content of the book may be more accessible to the reader. He has personally visited several countries looking for answers to the question of the fossil resin. The author, having been at the Baltic Sea many times, has never personally found amber..
