Download or read book Empire of Secrets written by Calder Walton and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2014-10-29 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned espionage historian offers “a gripping account of British intelligence during the last days of empire” (The Daily Telegraph). Drawing on a wealth of newly declassified records and hitherto overlooked personal papers, intelligence expert Calder Walton offers a compelling and authoritative history of Britain’s espionage activities after World War II. A major addition to intelligence literature, this is the first book to utilize records from the Foreign Office’s secret archive, which contains some of the darkest and most shameful secrets from the last days of Britain’s empire. Working clandestinely, MI5 operatives helped to prop up newly independent states across the globe against a ceaseless campaign of Communist subversion. Though the CIA is often assumed to be the principal actor against the Soviet Union through the Cold War, Britain plays a key role through its so-called “special relationship” with the United States. In Empire of Secrets, Walton sheds new light on everything from violent counterinsurgencies fought by British forces in the jungles of Malaya and Kenya, to urban warfare campaigns conducted in Palestine and the Arabian Peninsula. The stories here have chilling contemporary resonance, detailing the use and abuse of intelligence by governments that oversaw state-sanctioned terrorism, wartime rendition, and “enhanced” interrogation. “An important and highly original account of postwar British intelligence.” —The Wall Street Journal

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When dermatologist Peter Wisch learned how to channel higher wisdom, he wondered whether that ability would be able to help his patients as well. Both he and many of his patients had longed to find answers to mystifying questions regarding more profound reasons for illness. Remarkably, what he found proved to be both surprising and revelatory. The knowledge he discovered was quite different, albeit not invalidating, than what he had been taught in medical school. Beneath all the biological, chemical, physiological, and other physical causes for disease exist emotional, mental, and spiritual ones. The messages he received not only resonated with patients, but its advice when passed along and heeded, seemed to help heal their conditions. What began as innocent curiosity revolutionized his way of understanding and treating illness that does not discredit the field of medicine, but instead holds great potential to enhance it. In Revelations on Healing, Dr. Wisch describes how you too can take control of your own health by applying fundamental metaphysical tenets to awaken the healer within you and manifest your own well-being.
