Journey to Axiom by Saeed Aslam (3 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

As a five year old boy, I witnessed the horrors of war first hand during the 1965 war between India and Pakistan. Because my father was assigned to the Headquarters of Pakistan army, we lived on the base and faced relentless air attacks from the Indian air force. Seeing the devastation and death caused by war made me develop a deep rooted hatred for Indians. I wanted to grow up and join the Pakistani army and kill as many Indians as I could. Fate would have it that I never joined the military and ended up coming to the US for higher education instead. When I arrived in America, I met a Sikh from India named Kulbir Singh who did everything possible to be my friend, while I did my best to not like him due to the hatred I had in my heart towards Indians. But Kulbir made it impossible for me to hate him because he was such a wonderful person; so selfless, loving and a true friend. I was forced to reevaluate my feelings towards the Indians and I realized that our military was killing them ...

History of the Deep State (New World Order Book 1) by Jeremy Stone (287 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Mainstream Media has led us to believe that the idea of a Deep State is a recent phenomenon. However, it has presented itself in many forms throughout our nation's history. Many prominent bureaucratic figures have participated in this centuries-old conspiracy against America. Jeremy Stone has elucidated a clear definition of the origin, evolution, objectives, and hostile foreign intentions of this New World Order. Its agenda is an Anti-American one, with "enlightenment thinkers" at Its core. Nefarious foreign interference of our 'Nation-State' has been mounting for centuries with the ultimate goal of toppling our country from within. Without a complete understanding of the New World Order and its history, we are doomed to fail in attempting to eliminate it. While it is possible to stifle the New World Order and its foreign conspiracy against 'The State,' we must understand what it is, a Global-Matrix/New World Order, designed to topple Governments from within.

The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey: Or, Africa for the Africans by Marcus Garvey (Open Road Media) (386 Reviews)    Price verified 14 hours ago

A collection of speeches and essays from the acclaimed Jamaican political activist, publisher, journalist, and orator hailed as "Black Moses." A selection of Marcus Garvey's addresses and writings, The Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey was originally compiled by his widow, Amy Jacques Garvey, to keep track of her husband's opinions and sayings over his career. However, in 1923, she decided to publish the collection and give the public the opportunity to form their own judgments about Garvey, rather than merely go along with what was being said by the media at the time. Marcus Garvey founded the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League and supported a Pan-African philosophy that became known as Garveyism. Among his aspirations, he hoped to create a unified, self-sufficient Black nation. Although Garvey was ultimately unable to achieve all his goals, the ideas presented in his book are still relevant today.

The Truth about the World by Robert Angus Lamont (1 Review)    Price verified 13 hours ago

This book is never going to get a five start rating because it tells you the truth about how we live and treat each other and the world. And as Aristotle told us over 2000 years ago we don't like to hear unpleasant truths. 100 years ago there were less than 2 billion people alive on the planet, now there are nearly 8 billion. Experts tell us there will be 10 billion alive on the planet by 2050. Despite this we continue our greedy and often frivolous use of resources and energy. Those of us with a pampered western industrial lifestyle live with the cult of self and look forward to no end of experiences. We drive huge cars and watch huge TV sets and dream of space tourism and other experiences whilst the poor suffer from the boom and bust of capitalism and the effects of global warming with its record temperatures and rainfalls. What is right? Well, as Nietzsche said that is only a matter of opinion but if our grandchildren are to have any future at all we need to start the debate.

The Metaphysics of Monotheism begins with The Spiritual Golden Rule. The Spiritual Golden Rule: Thou shall not force one form of spirituality or religion on others. Do not read this if you are not a seeker. Believers have stopped seeking and this is for seekers.

This question led to only more questions, including those in reference to God, spirituality, religion and ultimately monotheism specifically. Political and religious monochromatic belief systems are celebrated and psychologically problematic. The Metaphysics of Monotheism is an exploration of Godliness, spirituality, religion and monotheism in esoteric and psychological terms.

Hillary Clinton: To Destroy a Nation by Will Clark (5 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Hillary Clinton hopes to replace Obama as President of the United States. And, as with Obama, her goals seem very oriented against fulfilling those hopes and dreams of our Founding Fathers. In fact, her plans and ambitions for America seem in total opposition to those rights and opportunities our Founding Fathers planned for us. They planned personal freedom, individual opportunity for success and achievement, and fulfillment of human aspirations. Her words propose an all-powerful central government that would determine and limit personal dreams and aspirations. The plans, rules and laws she propose are to 'take from the rich and redistribute to the poor.' To the poor, this plan obviously sounds great. Isn't it nice to be promised something without any attachments or requirement to earn it? Just relax and enjoy life and let the government do everything for you. Although the parts sound great to many uninspired people; the results are always destructive. The government takes over ...

The Evolution of Gods: The Scientific Origin of Divinity and Religions by Ajay Kansal (1 Review)    Price verified 2 hours ago

This book explains why, when and how humanity invented various religions and gods. The process began around 100,000 years ago; during this epoch, many nomadic human bands, all over the world, invented primitive languages and began to decipher each happening around them. Whatever they could not comprehend, their chiefs or priests attributed to some unseen power. At some point in time, we do not know exactly when it happened, humans invented an activity: they began to worship each seen or unseen power, which was beyond their control, but could either harm or help them. They invented almost identical methods of worship, such as folding their hands, bowing, kneeling, floral offering, prayers and sacrifices. For example, anthropologists believe that during the last Ice Age, humans had largely inadequate protection against cold; their survival depended largely upon available sunlight -- something beyond their control. In that scenario, solar worship was a logical outcome. In a similar ...

The Discourse of Conflict: Nonverbal semiotics and discursive practice in Northern Ireland's Troubles 1977-82 by Warren Hately (1 Review)    Price verified 15 hours ago

The Discourse of Conflict focuses on the "prison war" between Republican inmates and their British captors, and the subsequent "dirty" protest and hunger strikes, to deal with two problems central to contemporary philosophy: the unacknowledged bias of structuralist theory towards linguistic signs and the lack of a coherent theorisation of social conflict. To address these conundrums, Hately reconciles Saussurean and Peircean semiotics and then uses Ruthrof's corporeal pragmatics to break from the verbocentric idea of language as a closed system, showing instead that verbal meanings originate from the body, its senses and its imagination, as informed by the deixis of individual communities. With the transformation of linguistic semiotics into corporeality, Foucault's notion of discourse and the neglected category of discursive practice are then reworked to show how statements based on nonverbal signs might function discursively. The culmination of the 1970s Northern Irish prison ...

ON WHAT LANGUAGE IS: And how it is possible by Fred Jaeger (1 Review)    Price verified 15 hours ago

An original review of how verbal meaning is effected (through the iterative uses of sounds and marks) as that relates to conceptions of the world, to human behaviour and to the human self. That leads to the disappearance of language understood as a self-standing entity (as this or that language). Language is possible only as wholly and thoroughly integrated with the conduct of human life. A massively rich understanding of language then emerges, akin to the ancient concept of the Logos. On What Language Is sets out a wide range of basic ways in which the integration of language with the conduct of human life is realised, illuminating the nature of both. Further details are given in The perspective and Table of contents viewable in Look inside.

330, Against all Odds by Shem Pachtmann (1 Review)    Price verified 12 hours ago

Imagine living 6,000 years ago in Mesopotamia after escaping from Egypt to be part of an experiment called "a city" that has been replicated since millions of times. The backbone of Sumerian culture was relatively modern agricultural techniques that freed up people's time, allowing for education, classism, government, and surplus. The region of Mesopotamia thrived for nearly 2,000 years before being conquered by Cyrus the Great and made part of the Persian Empire. During this period, a small tribe of an unknown amount of Jews survived in the Levant for about 2,500 years before Mesopotamia was conquered by Alexander the Great in 330 B.C., and as a result of climatic change, disease, migration, and war, about 700 Jews still survived in the area under nomadic conditions before it was conquered by the Roman Empire in 115 A.D. The group was divided, and 330 Ashkenazi Jews made their way into Southern Europe and spread throughout the entire continent by 1,000 A.D. As they migrated, they ...

The Simplest of Truths: Our Earthly, Human and Spiritual Ecology by Gregory Tutt (6 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Fourth Edition The Simplest of Truths is a blend of essays and stories that focus on spirituality and relationships. It does not fit neatly into any mainstream ideology but instead centers on principles of fair-mindedness and respect as a foundation to traditional morality. While the framework of the book is on the religious side, its tone is less evangelical and more social and philosophic. Its purpose is to help reveal inner peace and kindle a sense of harmony. To press upon everyone the need to create an environment where the spiritual and the physical are in balance and that the individual and the community have a shared commitment and responsibility to the other's wellbeing. Condensed down to the very basics, the higher awareness we have of ourselves in relation to others and even with the world around us stems from the spiritual gifts we receive from God. Yet, enlightenment does not start until we recognize those gifts and then apply them by embracing three truths: peace, ...

What if the Trump administration's mishandling of the pandemic was not indifferent, incompetent, chaotic, or any of the other explanations offered by mainstream media? What if, instead, everything went according to plan? In this urgent analysis of the U.S. pandemic response, Bookbinder, a psychotherapist, uses the tools of his trade not to diagnose Trump, but to expose the motivations behind his administration's catastrophic handling of the pandemic. Bookbinder builds the case, brick by brick, that Trump & Company intentionally encouraged the virus' spread so that the people who are still dying disproportionately from COVID-19 - Blacks, Latinxs, Indigenous people, and the elderly, sick, and imprisoned - would continue to die. He calls it pandemicide. Using these same therapist tools, Bookbinder goes on to show how pandemicide fits into Trumpism's larger agenda: To move from nascent fascism to a fully realized Fascism 2.0.

THE SOCIAL BRAIN: AN OPERATOR'S MANUAL by MUHAMMAD AL-ADO (34 Reviews)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Dear Reader, when I embarked on the journey of writing this book, I intended to dig deep into the physical structures of the social brain in order to present a simple understanding of the social brain to create a self-help book for the reader. Soon after starting, I found it hard to ignore the elephant in the room: consciousness. The major difficulty I had was to try to reconcile a metaphysical philosophical concept, with the functional anatomical structures of the social brain and the reward system. As a physician I am used to seeing the world of human brain in a tangible way, and so I tried explore consciousness without losing the empiricist in me. I am presenting to you another way of viewing consciousness. Advanced neuroscience has been able to explore some of the brain's most minute details. Knowing the materialistic components of the social brain and understanding many of the chemical functions of its cells, promised us to solve the problem of understanding who we are. But the ...

Water and Politics: Clientelism and Reform in Urban Mexico by Veronica Herrera (1 Review)    Price verified 15 hours ago

Most of the world's population lives in cities in developing countries, where access to basic public services, such as water, electricity, and health clinics, is either inadequate or sorely missing. Water and Politics shows how politicians benefit politically from manipulating public service provision for electoral gain. In many young democracies, politicians exchange water service for votes or political support, rewarding allies or punishing political enemies. Surprisingly, the political problem of water provision has become more pronounced, as water service represents a valuable political currency in resource-scarce environments. Water and Politics finds that middle-class and industrial elites play an important role in generating pressure for public service reforms.
