William Rogers
William Rogers is the inventor of 'electromagnetic brain animation'. Work began on this non-invasive brain treatment mechanism 13 years ago. Rogers is recognized as one of the very first bioengineers to begin to understand the potential for positive outcomes for the mental health field by being able to integrate specific strata, power and time considerations working with electromagnetism and ultrasound. He is now considered an international authority on combining electromagnetism and ultrasound to improve multiple mental difficulties. He is also credited, along with others, with finally bringing on the downfall of validity from so call "Recovered Memory" and Rogers was also in the lead to expose so-called Autistic Facilitation as a sad and harmful fraud put upon thousands of parents of children impacted by Autism. He has written a number of books on subjects such as 'Recovered Memory', the Technology of Human Behavior, and Creating Positive Behavior. Several of these writings can be found as suggested or course work recommendations at most centers of higher learning throughout the Western Hemisphere. Examples would be Harvard, Yale, Oxford, Stanford, Rice, Cambridge, the University of Tokyo, the University of London, the University of Toronto, University of Australia as well as multiple others. Rogers has been shown appreciation for his lifetime work by such originations as the Associated Press, The American Medical Association, The Texas Medical Association, The National Association of Broadcasters, CBS Radio, United Press International, Who's Who in America and has been bestowed the honorary title of 'Admiral" in the Texas Navy by the governor of Texas.

"I am very pleased to have received any indication from peers and others that some of the work I have done over the past 30 years may have made life a little more bearable for one or more persons. If this were actually the case wouldn't it be wonderful. Most folks, I would think, do not mind terribly when others speak well of them. However, I believe there is always a bit of discomfort let loose from accepting personal accolades, especially from men and women I personally hold in high esteem myself. And I believe it arises from the fact that I, or anyone, knows the true worth of their endeavor much better than the 'compliment' giver. . .and we are well aware that there has never been a time that we did not fall so very short of what we wished we had been able to accomplish.. Nevertheless, It is rude to refuse graciousness from one's peers and on this page you see what you see because rudeness is something I detest." William Rogers
