Libraries are as old as civilization itself, brought about by the need to store knowledge and recorded information for future use. Since ancient times, libraries have evolved to become more than just mere repositories of written text, and have come to fulfill a more diversified role in society.

One of the earliest finds related to stored knowledge feature the 30,000 clay tablets dating back to ancient Mesopotamia 5,000 years ago. Other notable finds include papyrus scrolls from the Egyptian cities of Armana and Thebes from 1300-1200 BC. The presence of such large collections indicated the existence of storage systems akin to today’s libraries.


Dr. Aaron D. Lewis is also a publisher, and is associated with Foghorn Publishers.


The Greeks played a large part in the development of libraries. Private collections of books were common, and in the fourth century BC, the first public library was opened in Greece. The Greek city of Alexandria in Egypt had a great library established and maintained by the Ptolemaic dynasty.

Monasteries became the next purveyor of knowledge during the early part of the millennium after Christ. It was a requirement for monks to be literate, and it was them who kept knowledge in the form of volumes upon volumes of scroll and books. However, turmoil and war often saw the destruction of many libraries at the time.

The Golden Age of libraries came in 1600s and 1700s in Europe, an offshoot of the Renaissance. Britain was home to many libraries, the largest of which was the British Library. For the first time, the library became more than just a collection of books; it also became a standard mark of a country’s civilization.

Established in 1959, the New England Patriots is one of the most accomplished and well-respected teams in the National Football League (NFL). It is a seven-time conference champion and a 14-time division champion. Additionally, it has been in seven Super Bowls and took home three championships, namely Super Bowl XXXVI, Super Bowl XXXVIII, and Super Bowl XXXIX.

The Pats is also home to some of the greatest NFL players of all time, including Stanley Morgan (1977-1989), Sam Cunningham (2000-present), and now-coach Bill Belichick (2000-present), who has the team’s three championships in his credit. True-blue Pats fans, including Dr. Aaron D. Lewis, are well aware of how the wits of Coach Belichick and the leadership of quarterback Tom Brady led the team to glory at the Superbowl for almost three consecutive seasons. And although the Pats unfortunately met with an upset by the New York Giants in the 2011 Super Bowl, the combination of Belichick and Brady is still considered as one of today’s deadliest in the NFL. More importantly, despite the dramatic upset, the Pats are dedicated to rise up the ranks again in the upcoming Super Bowl season and prove that the team is still a force to be reckoned with.

With such a positive attitude, it’s easy to see why the Pats has earned a special place in the NFL history and in the hearts of football fans across America.

For this matter, he advocates naturopathic medicine which suggests that the body has a natural healing ability. Experts who practice this area of discipline do not only help patients ward off pain and ailments the natural way, but also empower them with essential information for quick relief and recovery. Patrons of naturopathic medicine believe that the patients’ ability to combat diseases depends not only on the use of cutting edge therapies but also on diet, physical activities, and lifestyle choices. Moreover, patients who undergo naturopathic therapies take advantage of the well-crafted treatment plans combining modern medical science with traditional natural medical methods.

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis is among those who agree that when patients are well informed, the more likely they are capable of helping themselves heal faster and prevent the onset of possible diseases. Naturopathic medicine uses the following principles:

1. Removing barriers of self-healing including poor nutrition and unhealthy habits
2. Addressing causes of ailments
3. Ensuring safety by choosing low-risk procedures
4. Inducing self-responsibility to heal
5. Utilizing holistic healing
6. Checking heredity and vulnerability to diseases for prevention
A 2001 Harvard Medical School survey says that 68 percent of adults have resorted to one form of alternative treatment at the least. The use of naturopathic medicine is on the rise in treating patients with diseases ranging from cancer to diabetes.

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis: “Good health is an innate right for all humanity”

“Good health is not a cultural experience. It is an innate right for all humanity,” says ministry founder and best-selling author Dr. Aaron D. Lewis.

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis Bschool.pepperdine.edu

According to the World Health Organization, micronutrient deficiencies, such as the lack of vitamin A, iron, iodine, and zinc, have put more than two billion people around the world at risk. Among children under the age of five in the third world, malnutrition contributes to 53 percent of deaths associated with infectious diseases. Malnutrition compromises the immune system, thus escalating the frequency, severity, and duration of childhood illnesses. Micronutrient deficiencies also impair intellectual growth, personal development, and adult productivity.

As stable health should not be based on any geographic, cultural, or political category, achievement of such condition must be equal to everyone, to every nation. It’s been a right since birth, and people are supposed to have fair access to nutritious food, a clean environment, and decent medical facilities. Dr. Aaron D. Lewis is among those who agree that while many high-quality health care facilities are available today, there are still many people who could hardly benefit from these services due to socio-economic constraints.


The World Health Organization has defined global health as “the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equityin health for all people worldwide.” Hence, global health is not just about the worldwide enhancement of physical condition, but also the reduction of disparities between countries and protection against global threats that ignores national borders.

Reading between the lines: Dr. Aaron Lewis explains why self-help books matter

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis, a New York Times best-selling author who has written many self-help books, believes that books which encourage improvement in its readers are must-reads.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


To begin with, self-help books can be considered instruction manuals to living life. With these books, people no longer need to depend on others for knowledge that they can use and apply to their lives in order to survive within society. Written media is powerful, and Dr. Lewis strongly believes that writers should use this power to touch people’s lives.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


Another use for written media is for writers to share their experiences in life and the lessons they have learned from them in order to help in guiding others.


Dr. Aaron D. Lewis has penned numerous self-help books meant to assist with the varying problems people face. On top of being a successful author, he has also reached out to aspiring writers who want to publish their work. Thus, the Independencia Press was born, which is meant to serve the editorial needs of writers everywhere.

The Independencia Press offers services such as cover design, editing, printing, proofreading, and formatting and pagination. All these are done with the aim to aid independent writers in publishing their first books.

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis: Prayers are powerful healers

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis believes that suffering is not produced by destiny but by people’s choices. People who have gotten stuck on the downside of the wheel may have grown apathetic of their case, attributing their tough luck to fate. But Dr. Lewis explains that there is a powerful instrument that can help turn things around for these individuals—prayers.

The mind is a powerful tool that can do wonders. It controls how the body reacts towards certain stimuli that are present in a person’s immediate environment. But there is more to the mind than just being a device for reacting. According to Dr. Aaron D. Lewis, the mind—through praying—can condition the body to heal itself from the traumas of worldly torment.

Prayers can do great things for people going through difficulties. By praying, people can understand the concept of hope in their acknowledgement of and acceptance that “Someone” out there can help them in their lowest moments. All they have to do is trigger their faith by communicating to the Divine Power that they believe can help them surpass their situations. Dr. Lewis believes in the “mind over matter” concept: that if people consider the fact that they will be eased of their pains, then they will be eased of them eventually.


From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


Dr. Lewis himself takes the time to pray for others whenever he’s given the chance.

Pain Begone: Dr. Aaron D. Lewis Shares Why He Loves Chiropractic

Chiropractic is a form of alternative medicine that treats mechanical disorders of the musculoskeletal system, especially the spine. In his straight-shooting book Why I Love Chiropractic, Dr. Aaron D. Lewis, a spiritual leader, humanitarian, and ghostwriter of more than 100 books, shares moments of his own life and those of loved ones and friends to discuss how health problems vanished after undergoing chiropractic care.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

From minor allergies to painful endometriosis, chiropractic restores the body to the fighting machine it was meant to be. Through chiropractic, the central nervous system operates at optimal levels, making the body heal itself. It is considered by many to be a more effective method of healing compared to conventional medicine. Why I Love Chiropractic is a touching and personal book that reveals the power behind said alternative medicine method and the important role it can play in people’s lives. Dr. Aaron D. Lewis wrote the book and published it to share with others this non-invasive way of getting rid of pain so they can also live their lives to the fullest.

Many people have benefited from the healing powers of chiropractic. Kristen, a reader of Why I Love Chiropractic, used to suffer from pain and numbness in her legs. Her doctor diagnosed her pain as a deadly degenerative disease requiring a $1,000 MRI scan. Unable to pay for the scan, Kristen consulted a chiropractor. It turned out that the tugging in her legs was just a result of a pinched nerve. After a few visits to her chiropractor, Kristen’s pain and numbness slowly went away.

Dr. Aaron Lewis Blog: 3 FAQs about Publishing Answered

There is no other person perfect for answering publishing-related questions than New York Times bestselling author and founder of two publishing companies Dr. Aaron D. Lewis. Backed by a total of 35 years of professional writing and publishing experience, Dr. Lewis gives answers to the most asked questions about publishers and publishing.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

• What kind of an advance can I expect when a publisher signs me?
Nowadays, large publishers have cut back as much as 50 to 80 percent on their advances because of the current economy and because the publisher can’t be certain they will earn back the money they spend. First time authors with two or three published works usually don’t expect receiving an advance, but rather a solid publishing deal.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

• What do publishers usually think is the least attractive quality in a writer?
Dr. Aaron D. Lewis stresses that publishers find it unattractive when writers tell them, “You really need to publish this book. It’s going to be a bestseller.” They hear these lines everyday and it’s a drag. Publishers also find writers with bad grammar unappealing. They also hate authors who are ignorant about the process of publishing. Most writers think that their only job is to write the whole thing and leave the rest to the publisher. A writer who gets involved and is willing to learn the whole process makes a publisher feel secure about their risky investment.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

• What’s the biggest mistake a writer can make after signing with a publisher?
Most writers sign with their publishers without a full understanding of everything written on the contract. It is best to ask questions and study the whole contract first before signing to make sure the agreement is understood.

Attracting more Readers: Dr. Aaron D. Lewis on Dressing Attention-grabbing Book Covers

Almost 90 percent of the initial book-buying decision is sparked by just a single glance at the book cover. Best-selling writer and founder of two publishing companies, Dr. Aaron D. Lewis knows that the cover design process should be given a great deal of time and attention.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis

Especially for self-published or indie authors, the book cover can be just as difficult to make as writing a whole novel from start to finish. Most readers would instantly notice that self-published books’ covers are bland, boring, and uninteresting, making them think that these books are “unprofessional,” and its authors “unskilled” and “novice.”

Book covers matter so much that one female author took to the Web her disappointment over her publishers who wanted to soften and feminize the cover of women’s published works that are neither soft nor feminine. In her recent Guardian article, author Lionel Shiver wrote, “I write a nasty book and they want a girly cover on it.”

Dr. Aaron D. Lewis adds that covers should not only matter to the reader but to the author as well. Publishers will always have the final say on the look of a book cover but even so, authors should not be afraid to express how they want it to look like. For self-publishers who are not photo-design savvy, they can find, hire, and brief someone to design the book cover for them because at the end of the day, having an amateur-looking cover can make the book stay on store shelves for a really long time or may not sell at all.

Wealth Lessons by the Week: Dr. Aaron D. Lewis’ Reflective Money Thoughts

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


Healing evangelist Dr. Aaron D. Lewis founded the Family of God Church in 1997. A unique ministry that redefines and liberates the archaic concept of church, its ministry aims to foster the development the Mind of God within every person, the discovery of one’s destiny such that he or she is set on the path to greatness and fulfillment, and the maintenance of divine health so that one’s destiny and contribution to the earth continues to touch and enrich as many lives as possible, for as many years as possible.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


The book “Reflective Money Thoughts: 52 Innovative Views on Attracting Infinite Abundance,” opens people’s minds to new insights on financial wealth and prosperity. As Dr. Aaron D. Lewis explains, what distinguishes the poor from the rich is neither skillfulness nor giftedness, not even intellectual acumen. He goes on to state that despite the years of rigorous schooling and university education that many individuals have undergone, these same people continue to struggle to acquire modest levels of wealth. Revealing another facet of the issue, he talks about people who are dissatisfied with their financial status – though they exhibit great proficiency in their field of work, they aren’t remunerated the rate they deserve.

From Dr. Aaron D. Lewis


The pastor then goes on to discuss people who do not seem to have had the foremost of academic backgrounds, those who do not appear to be the brightest in their particular vocation, but who seem to possess genuine contentment as a result of a superior financial profile.

“Most people tend to frown at the concept of thinking, and even more so when they’re challenged to think about money,” an excerpt from the book posits. “Whether you realize it or not, you already have a view about money, one that is either positive or negative, decreasing you or increasing you, multiplying what you already have or taking the little that you have away.”
