In his deeply penetrating and educational book,Bloodshed Before Birth—America's ChoiceMallard E. Guy, Jr., sets out to prove to the world that a fetus is a life, and taking that life through abortion is murder. Though abortion has always been a controversial topic, Mallard's extensive research brings a new viewpoint to the table. With faith-based reasoning, biblical references, an examination of the infamous Roe v. Wade case, and hard science, Mallard's writing will truly make even the most hard and fast pro-choice advocate think about the injustice involved in this issue. By persuading the misinformed and uninformed with his logical reasoning, millions of Americans can soon call themselves pro-life. And once all the evidence has been presented, Mallard calls those who haven't spoken on this issue to come to action. Without a voice against abortion, it can never be stopped.'Unless those who are silent join with those already actively opposing abortion, we will be outnumbered. Further, our acceptance of legalized abortion has placed us on a downward path toward more legalized murders. Now is the time to take a stand for the sanctity of all human life, especially the lives of unborn children. Are you going to stand up?'

Preface By The 5th Earl Of Balfour 2017 marks one hundred years since the Balfour Declaration, the landmark letter that expressed the British government's support for a Jewish homeland in Palestine. A century later, the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians rages on, without prospect of a peace agreement any time soon. This timely book explores why innumerable efforts to resolve the conflict have always failed, and questions how an agreement could ever be reached. Shedding some much-needed light on many of the misconceptions of the Declaration, this book also navigates the complex history of the situation ever since. Labour peer and medical professor Leslie Turnberg elegantly places this particular conflict within the context of the turmoil in the rest of the Middle East, explaining how they have influenced one another. At a time of global uncertainties and fears of terrorism, Turnberg offers a balanced look at how best to plot a course amongst shifting alliances and an ever-changing political climate. Why have negotiations between Palestine and Israel consistently broken down? Beyond the Balfour Declaration details what an agreement might look like, and the steps that need to be taken to begin the process.

This collection of articles is the result of an interdisciplinary Medieval Studies conference held at the University of Sheffield in 2009. Brutality and aggression were a stark reality of everyday life in the Middle Ages; from individual rebellions through family feuds to epic wars, a history of medieval warfare could easily be read as a history of medieval violence. This volume goes beyond such an analysis by illustrating just how pervasive the nature of war could be, influencing not only medieval historiography and chronicle tradition, but also other disciplines such as art, architecture, literature and law. The overarching and multi-faceted themes bring together both iconic aspects of medieval warfare such as armour and the Crusades, as well as taking in the richness of textual traditions and matters of crucial importance at the time—the justification for war and the means by which peace can be re-established.
