Download or read book White as the Shroud written by Myra MacDonald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between South and Central Asia, in the high mountains and cold deserts, India, Pakistan and China have fought brutal wars over barren, uninhabited territory in a bid for control over their national peripheries, including Xinjiang and Tibet in China, and Jammu and Kashmir on the Indian subcontinent. White as the Shroud explores this broader story through the most surreal of such conflicts: the Siachen war, fought between India and Pakistan for control of the eponymous glacier. The tale of Siachen highlights the absurdity of seeking hard borders in such desolate mountains, as well as the brutality of high-altitude warfare--more soldiers were killed by the weather and terrain than by the fighting. As one of the few people to have visited both sides of the glacier, Indian and Pakistani, Myra MacDonald provides a first-hand view of the battlefield and a wealth of eyewitness testimony from combatants. She sets this account in the overarching narrative of the Kashmir conflict, India's defeat by China in 1962, and the 1999 India-Pakistan Kargil war. White as the Shroud brings a fresh perspective to one of the most volatile corners of the world, raising questions about borders and the wars fought to defend them.

Book excerpt: It’s impossible to bury your past when everyone carries a shovel. The people of Namerre both love and fear the Reaper, a ruthless vigilante with a strict moral code. When the law fails, he hunts down those who have done wrong and makes them disappear, from blood mages to corrupt judges. Until now, eighteen-year-old Kallan has been the one to do Reaper's dirty work. But no more. She wants to catch criminals the right way, and after telling her employer to take a long trip in a leaky airship, she joins Namerre's police force. Growing up in a world of thieves and killers has left Kallan with debilitating anxiety and a past she can’t talk about—unless she wants to be arrested before she graduates. But when a serial killer stalks the streets, leaving victims dressed as brides, Kallan has to decide if it’s worth risking her future to seek help from the man who taught her to murder.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in an imagined past, this dark fantasy-adventure is for fans of Philip Pullman's The Golden Compass. Features Jemma, a fiery-headed heroine held captive in Agromond Castle, yet destined to save mist-shrouded Anglavia. Fiery-headed Jemma Agromond is not who she thinks she is, and when the secrets and lies behind her life at mist-shrouded Agromond Castle begin to unravel, she finds herself in a chilling race for her life. Ghosts and misfits, a stone and crystals, a mysterious book, an ancient prophecy--all these reveal the truth about Jemma's past and a destiny far greater and more dangerous than she could have imagined in her wildest fantasies. With her telepathic golden rats, Noodle and Pie, and her trusted friend, Digby, Jemma navigates increasingly dark forces, as helpers both seen and unseen, gather. But in the end, it is her own powers that she must bring to light, for only she has the key to defeating the evil ones and fulfilling the prophecy that will bring back the sun and restore peace in Anglavia.

Download or read book The Art and Alchemy of Chinese Tea written by Daniel Reid and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fine art of preparing and drinking tea has become a hallmark of Chinese civilization, handed down through the ages in China by monks and martial artists, doctors and hermits, emperors and alchemists. In his latest book, Daniel Reid explores Chinese tea in its manifold varieties, its long and colorful historical development in China, and its refinement as a mainstay of Chinese culture. He describes the principles that lie at the heart of tea culture in China, the potent medicinal properties of Chinese tea, and how to cultivate Cha Dao, the Daoist way of tea, in daily life. A central section of the book explores for the first time the alchemy of Chinese tea, an esoteric aspect of Chinese tea culture that remains unexplored by modern science but was known and cultivated in ancient China. Jin Dan, the `golden elixir of life' is the elusive essence that resides dormant within tea (as in some other plants and minerals) and can be extracted, activated and transferred to the human system to protect health, prolong life, and enhance mental performance. The author looks at how and why this works, and explains the chemical transformations that take place as well as explaining the energetic transfer that takes place when tea is prepared by a Master. Illustrated with many photographs, by Christan Janzen, the book contains detailed descriptions of many Chinese tea varieties, especially the High Mountain Oolong Tea of Taiwan, which is considered by many to be the pinnacle of perfection in both the art and alchemy of Chinese tea. The book also contains entertaining tea anecdotes from the author's 'Tea Tidings' bulletin, and a useful glossary of Chinese tea terms. Tea lovers, as well as those with an interest in tea culture, the Dao, and Chinese history and culture, will find this book an absorbing and revelatory read.

Ethan squinted through the swirling white, the lighthouse beam battling it in vain, its desperate stabs of light swallowed by the hungry mist.

Download or read book The Gen X Bible written by Gen-X Redactor: DL Lyle and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2023-09-15 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Society’s foundational stories, key to uniting us, are under attack because they are judged as unhistorical biblical myths. What if that judgment is wrong? In that case, debunking these attacks would be important. Which is why this book is important! The history of the universe from the beginning to the creation of man on earth is a real history, just slightly different than as described in the bible. The cognitive revolution is a real event, just slightly different than as described in the bible. The Garden of Eden is a real place and can be pointed to on a map today. But what about the heroes? The key to identifying biblical heroes in secular sources is to synchronize the chronologies. By answering a simple question with a simple answer, this narrative is based on an alternative chronology that unmasks identities of many heroes…and they are REAL! Noah’s flood was a real event and can be linked to the most catastrophic volcanic eruption of the Bronze Age. Abram was a real person, and a mayor of Jerusalem wrote and complained about him to an Egyptian Pharoah. Joseph was a real person, and his story has been known for centuries in Egypt but misidentified due to poor chronology. Moses is in the Egyptian records once you look in the right time period! And the histories of these hero’s matter. They matter because the record of their history in the Bible records the maturation of an explanation for the fundamental question everyone wants to know the answer to: why? Experience the thrill of quickly and easily learning the Bible and discovering how accurate it really is while staying true to the latest modern science. The majority of the Old Testament is thoroughly explored in less than 250 pages, and they are explored as they occurred, within the larger history of man! History, alternative history, biblical history, Ancient Near East geography, military analysis, mathematics, metallurgy, the Bronze Age Collapse, archeology, linguistics, even climate change, all these topics make their appearance in these pages to help explain what the latest scholarship believes to be true about the Bible. Although this book is clearly written by a modern scientist and mathematician, it is truly hoped that it is seen for what is intended to be: a modern-day apologetic. To serve that role, it was written in a way that is hopefully easy to read and not filled with dense notes. It hopefully includes enough information to get the curious started on their own investigations. And it is hopefully clear that the author respects and is in awe of the biblical authors.

Download or read book The Life and Death of Adolf Hitler written by Robert Payne and published by Brick Tower Press. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Life And Death of Adolf Hitler, biographer Robert Payne unravels the tangled threads of Hitler’s public and private life and looks behind the caricature with the Charlie Chaplin mustache and the unruly shock of hair to reveal a Hitler possessed of immense personal charm that impressed both men and women and brought followers and contributions to the burgeoning Nazi Party. Although he misread his strength and organized an ill-fated putsch, Hitler spent his months in prison writing Mein Kampf, which increased his following. Once in undisputed command of the Party, Hitler renounced the chastity of his youth and began a sordid affair with his niece, whose suicide prompted him to reject forever all conventional morality. He promised anything to prospective supporters, then cold-bloodedly murdered them before they could claim a share of the power he reserved for himself. Once he became Chancellor, Hitler step by step bent the powers of the state to his own purposes to satisfy his private fantasies, rearming Germany, slaughtering his real or imaginary enemies, blackmailing one by one the leaders of Europe, and plunging the world into the holocaust of World War II. THE LIFE AND DEATH OF ADOLF HITLER is the story of not so much a man corrupted by power as a corrupt man who achieved absolute power and used it to an unprecedented degree, knowing at every moment exactly what he was doing and calculating his enemies’ weaknesses to a hair’s breadth. It is the story of a living man.

Download or read book The Interpretation of Dreams written by Sigmund Freud and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2010-02-23 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most complete edition of Sigmund Freud’s classic work on the psychology and significance of dreams. What are the most common dreams and why do we have them? What does a dream about death mean? What do dreams of swimming, failing, or flying symbolize? First published in 1899, Sigmund Freud's groundbreaking book The Interpretation of Dreams explores why we dream and why dreams matter in our psychological lives. Delving into theories of manifest and latent dream content; the special language of dreams; dreams as wish fulfillments; the significance of childhood experiences; and much more, Freud offers an incisive and enduringly relevant examination of dream psychology. Encompassing dozens of case histories and detailed analyses of actual dreams, this landmark work grants us unique insight into our sleeping experiences. Renowned for translating Freud's German writings into English, James Strachey―with the assistance of Freud's daughter Anna―first published this edition in 1953. Incorporating all textual alterations made by Freud over a period of thirty years, it remains the most complete translation of the work in print.
