Book excerpt: "Scientists have developed a substance that can destroy crops across America. Your mission, Mr. Horani, is to deliver it into the hands of al-Quaida." So begins "Shibli" -- a riveting political thriller by author Paul Brooks. A former Navy SEAL with a sterling record, Shibli Horani returns to civilian life in Texas. In the wake of 9/11, with customers shunning Arab-American businesses, he is struggling to keep the family company afloat while caring for his widowed mother. Shibli's military prowess and fluency in Arabic have come to the attention of the ICTA, a shadowy antiterrorist organization that offers him $1.5 million for a brief job as a courier. Desperate for money and eager to serve his country again, he accepts and soon finds he is in way over his head. His new employers have no respect for the laws of civilized society and no qualms in trampling the U.S. constitution or in killing innocent people. Trapped in a perilous arena of global espionage and political intrigue, Shibli must embark on a dangerous odyssey that takes him halfway around the world. With the CIA, the Israeli MOSSAD, and a band of al-Qaida fanatics all wanting him dead, he must use his quick thinking, linguistic skills, and military training to stay alive. Worse than the physical danger is the psychological conflict that arises when Shibli learns the true extent of the evil he has enabled. Against overwhelming odds and at the risk of everything, including his own life and the life of the woman he has come to love, he must violently oppose it.

Download or read book The Pinch written by David Willetts and published by Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The baby boom of 1945-65 produced the biggest, richest generation that Britain has ever known. Today, at the peak of their power and wealth, baby boomers now run the country; by virtue of their sheer demographic power, they have fashioned the world around them in a way that meets all of their housing, healthcare, and financial needs. In this original and provocative book, David Willetts shows how the baby boomer generation has attained this position at the expense of their children. Social, cultural, and economic provision has been made for the reigning section of society, whilst the needs of the next generation have taken a back seat. Willetts argues that if our political, economic, and cultural leaders do not begin to discharge their obligations to the future, the young people of today will be taxed more, work longer hours for less money, have lower social mobility, and live in a degraded environment in order to pay for their parents' quality of life. Baby boomers, worried about the kind of world they are passing on to their children, are beginning to take note. However, whilst the imbalance in the quality of life between the generations is becoming more obvious, what is less certain is whether the older generation will be willing to make the sacrifices necessary for a more equal distribution. The Pinch is a landmark account of intergenerational relations in Britain. It is essential reading for parents and policymakers alike.

Download or read book By Northern Lights written by Anne Buttimer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swedish society has recurrently shown a keen geographical sense, meticulously documenting all matters relating to environments, resources and human activities through space and time from the sixteenth century on. Throughout the twentieth century in particular, Sweden won international acclaim for its groundbreaking geographic work on spatial planning, climate change, time-space modelling and landscape history by the likes of Ahlmann, De Geer, Enequist, Hägerstrand, Kant, Olsson and William-Olsson. More recently, with the rising tide of post modernity and multiple processes of globalization, there has been a good deal of debate about novel lines of enquiry into nature and culture, issues of gender, identity and diversity, justice and environmental concern; all of these have sparked a renewed interest in the history and philosophy of the field. Following on from Anne Buttimer's renowned Geography and the Human Spirit, this book not only offers the first book length contextual account of the development of geographic thought in Sweden, but also provides a narrative thread which traces continuity and change in both cognitive styles and professional practices of geography in general.
