Hi
Welcome to Morcan Books & Films, the blog devoted to providing a unique perspective and intelligent commentary on books and films. It includes commentary on our own books and films – i.e. novels and screenplays co-written by the Morcans, and feature films produced by, or in development with, Morcan Motion Pictures.
Lance & James
It’s with pleasure we, my co-writer James Morcan and I, can announce that our books – fiction and nonfiction – are available now at Massachusetts’ Harvard Book Store (pictured) in Cambridge, MA. They can be viewed at https://www.harvard.com/search/site/Lance%20Morcan
Harvard Book Store is a unique and special place to shop—a locally owned, independently run Cambridge landmark since 1932. As this iconic store’s own website states: “Our bookstore is known for an extraordinary selection and thoughtful curation of new, used, and remaindered books; an award-winning author event series; wildly popular warehouse sales; and a history of innovation.”
Among our bestselling nonfiction books available at Harvard Book Store are: Debunking Holocaust Denial Theories, Vaccine Science Revisited, The Catcher in the Rye Enigma and Genius Intelligence.
Among our novels available at the store are the critically acclaimed Into the Americas, White Spirit, Silent Fear and The Ninth Orphan. My solo-authored new release historical adventure New Zealand: A Novel is also available.

Morcan books (co-authored and solo-authored) are also available via Waterstones UK & Europe bookstores, Barnes & Noble, Amazon and via public libraries.
The word “genius” is bandied about a lot these days, the term being eagerly applied to all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons. I’m in no doubt my definition of “genius” differs to yours and, indeed, to the definition held by many. This is not necessarily a sign we are right or wrong. Rather, it’s a reflection, perhaps, of the perception the modern world has of genius.
We address this in a passage titled Connecting the dots in GENIUS INTELLIGENCE: Secret Techniques and Technologies to Increase IQ – book one in our Underground Knowledge Series. ( Available now at Harvard Book Store ).
In bygone eras the term “genius” was most used when describing brilliant artists like Leonardo da Vinci. Then, in the 20th Century, the term was more often reserved for academics like Albert Einstein. Now, in the 21st Century, it has assumed a broader meaning and is applied to individuals who have achieved extraordinary results in a wide variety of careers, pastimes and fields of endeavor that transcend academia.
Increasingly, we see references in the media and elsewhere to scientific genius or artistic genius or sporting genius, which supports this evolving definition of the word.
Certainly, dictionary definitions (of genius) allow for a broad interpretation. For example, common dictionary definitions include “exceptional intellectual or creative power or other natural ability” and “an exceptionally intelligent person or one with exceptional skill in a particular area of activity.”
A cursory look at our Thesaurus offers mastermind, prodigy, brain, intellect, virtuoso and even whiz kid as alternatives to the word genius.
For what it’s worth, our definition of genius is: Someone who demonstrates rare intellect, who successfully connects dots between seemingly unconnected things and who sees what others don’t to achieve revolutionary outcomes and extraordinary results.
We remind readers what German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer said about genius: “Talent hits a target no one else can hit. Genius hits a target no one else can see.”
It’s obvious to us that little-known accelerated learning techniques do exist in one form or another – techniques (and technologies) capable of increasing IQ. It should also be obvious that geniuses aren’t usually born geniuses, or, to put it another way, they aren’t necessarily born geniuses. Having studied the lives of numerous geniuses, we were surprised to discover most utilized – or, from a young age, were exposed to – various brain activation methods on their respective journeys to becoming acknowledged masters of their fields.

Why do vaccine manufacturers persist in adding Formaldehyde (FA) or Formalin (the liquid form of formaldehyde) to vaccines when many scientists have expressed concern about injecting embalming fluid into the bodies of infants?
My co-author and I pose this question in a chapter titled Formaldehyde – The demolition crew in our book VACCINE SCIENCE REVISITED: Are Childhood Immunizations as Safe as Claimed?
In certain vaccines, formaldehyde is used to “inactivate viruses and to detoxify bacterial toxins.” However, we learned that in the making of these vaccines it’s impossible to extract all the toxins. There will always be some residual toxins left in the vaccine. When it comes to formaldehyde, this can be 0.02% FA or less.
As with other chemicals, the various forms should not be confused. We mentioned that formaldehyde becomes formalin when in liquid. To be more specific, when methyl alcohol is added to formaldehyde, it becomes formalin. A solution that’s 10% formalin, is actually 3.7-4% formaldehyde.
In researching vaccine safety generally, we struggle to understand how so many scientific studies out there can be studying the exact same thing, yet their conclusions completely contradict each other. Formaldehyde studies are no exception. If each study can be replicated by a third party in the laboratory, how can the results vary so greatly?
What’s not in dispute is that our bodies produce formaldehyde naturally. This makes it difficult to determine how safe formaldehyde in vaccines really is. Formaldehyde can damage our cells, but at the same time it can defend the cells against damage. In the latter case, our body breaks the formaldehyde down into smaller pieces. These smaller pieces are no longer formaldehyde, but are now formate. The cell uses formate to create more DNA.
Some health professionals are concerned about accumulation of formaldehyde in the body. For example, Sherri Tenpenny, Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO), who has great insight into the field of natural health, argues that by the time a child is five, they have received 1.795 mg formaldehyde.
Dr. Tenpenny says, “Through sloppy and negligent math, lawmakers and manufacturers fail to throw up a red flag regarding the large amount of formaldehyde injected into young bodies with developing brains, neurological systems and organs.”
We found a study that measured accumulated formaldehyde in the brain. It showed that the more it accumulates, the less there will be “cognitive abilities during human aging”. The more severe the dementia in Alzheimer’s disease patients, the higher the formaldehyde accumulation.
The list of concerns goes on. We list some of them for our readers. All claims, links and references to scientific and medical papers, official statements and news reports are tabled at the end of each chapter.
