Synopsis Jerusalem Commands by : Michael Moorcock
”I will admit I was lured into temptation during the twenties and thirties, and I blame no one for what happened then, least of all myself.” Unmistakably, this is the voice of Colonel Pyat, addict, inventor, and bizarre Everyman for the twentieth century. In Jerusalem Commands, the third of the Pyat quartet, our hero schemes and fantasises his way from New York to Hollywood, from Cairo to Marrakech, from cult success to the utter limits of sexual degradation, leaving a trail of mechanical and human wreckage in his wake as he crashes towards an inevitable appointment with the worst nightmare this century has to offer. It is Michael Moorcock’s extraordinary achievement to convert the life of Maxim Pyatnitski into epic and often hilariously comic adventure. Sustained by his dreams and profligate inventions, his determination to turn his back on the realities of his own origins, Pyat runs from crisis to crisis, every ruse a further link in a vast chain of deceit, suppression, betrayal. Yet, in his deranged self-deception, his monumentally distorted vision, this thoroughly unreliable narrator becomes a lens for focusing, through the dimensions of wild farce and chilling terror, on an uneasy brand of truth.

Synopsis Hear Him! the One Hundred Twenty-Five Commands of Jesus by : Peter Wittstock
* Why do Christians believe different things concerning the way of salvation?* Why don?t all Christians believe the same things about what Jesus taught?* Did Jesus teach that a plurality of interpretations was acceptable to him?* Did Jesus allow his apostles to draw their own disparate conclusions?* Is there one teaching concerning which all Christians must agree and conform?In Hear Him! The One Hundred Twenty-Five Commands of Jesus, Peter Wittstock addresses these and similar questions in this timely and indispensable resource.

Synopsis Combatant Commands by : Cynthia A. Watson
A one-stop resource for information about U.S. military commands and their organizations, this book describes the six geographic combat commands and analyzes their contributions to national security. The first book on the topic, Combatant Commands: Origins, Structure, and Engagements is a unique introduction to the geographic commands that are now at the heart of the U.S. military deployment abroad. The book begins with a description of the six commands—Northern Command, Pacific Command, Central Command, Southern Command, European Command, and Africa Command—explaining how they fit into the current national security establishment. Each command is discussed in depth, including areas of responsibility, subcommands, priorities, threats faced, and engagement institutions. The history of joint combatant commands is outlined as well, particularly the impact of the Root Reforms of the early 20th century, the push for the 1947 National Security Act, and the 1986 Goldwater-Nichols Military Reform Act. In this way, the evolution of combatant commands becomes a window through which to view changes in the U.S. military. Geographic combatant commands are vital to national security. By understanding how they work, readers will better understand where our military is today and where it may be headed.

Synopsis Jerusalem by : Madelaine Adelman
Jerusalem is one of the most contested urban spaces in the world. It is a multicultural city, but one that is unlike other multi-ethnic cities such as London, Toronto, Paris, or New York. This book brings together scholars from across the social sciences and the humanities to consider how different disciplinary theories and methods contribute to the study of conflict and cooperation in modern Jerusalem. Several essays in the book center on political decision making; others focus on local and social issues. While Jerusalem’s centrality to the Israeli Palestinian conflict is explored, the chapters also cover issues that are unevenly explored in recent studies of the city. These include Jerusalem’s diverse communities of secular and orthodox Jewry and Christian Palestinians; religious and political tourism and the “heritage managers” of Jerusalem; the Israeli and Palestinian LGBT community and its experiences in Jerusalem; and visual and textual perspectives on Jerusalem, particularly in architecture and poetry. Adelman and Elman argue that Jerusalem is not solely a place of contention and violence, and that it should be seen as a physical and demographic reality that must function for all its communities.

Synopsis The Cambridge Guide to Jewish History, Religion, and Culture by : Judith R. Baskin
The Cambridge Guide to Jewish History, Religion, and Culture is a comprehensive and engaging overview of Jewish life, from its origins in the ancient Near East to its impact on contemporary popular culture. The twenty-one essays, arranged historically and thematically, and written specially for this volume by leading scholars, examine the development of Judaism and the evolution of Jewish history and culture over many centuries and in a range of locales. They emphasize the ongoing diversity and creativity of the Jewish experience. Unlike previous anthologies, which concentrate on elite groups and expressions of a male-oriented rabbinic culture, this volume also includes the range of experiences of ordinary people and looks at the lives and achievements of women in every place and era. The many illustrations, maps, timeline, and glossary of important terms enhance this book's accessibility to students and general readers.

Synopsis Guardians: Keepers of God's Secret Code by : Donald Alexander
Theories of evolution, origin of the Universe, and deep time, have led many scientists like my former self, to conclude that Creation is just a chance sequence of events that can ultimately be explained by natural laws. I was skeptical and even tried to disprove God's existence, until I found a Secret Code embedded in the Scriptures. This code provides undeniable evidence of God, based upon event sequences in the lives of a Great Cloud of Witnesses like Joseph, Samson, David, Jonah, Elisha, Moses, and Joshua. By unlocking the Earthly Sanctuary pattern given to Moses, I've found that it reveals events of the Exodus from Egypt to the Promised Land which even applies to Spiritual Israel today. The veil to the Holy Place aligns with the Exodus opening of the Red Sea. And the veil to the Holiest Place points to the opening of the Jordan where we now stand, waiting to cross at the End of Time. The code reveals probabilities of the existence of God, far greater than finding an atom in Planet Earth by chance.
