Discover the answer to life’s most pressing problems through the joy of fly-fishing from master philosopher John Gierach, “the dean of fly-fishing” (Kirkus Reviews), who is “arguably the best fishing writer working” (The Wall Street Journal).Once again, John Gierach tells the world why the pastime of fly-fishing makes so much sense—except when it doesn’t. In this “shrewd, perceptive, and wryly funny” (The Wall Street Journal) book, he recalls the joys of landing that trout he’s been watching for the last hour—and then losing an even fatter one a little later. Joy and frustration mix in Gierach’s latest appreciation of the fly-fishing life as he takes us from his home waters on the Front Range of the Rockies in Colorado to the fishing meccas all over North America. From fishing lodges in Alaska to memories of the local creek in the Midwest where he grew up, Gierach celebrates the indispensability of the natural world around us.

''Murder in the Gulag is brilliant journalistic writing: punchy, eloquent, page-turning and factual.

During the bloody years of the First English Civil War, as the battles of Edgehill, Newbury and Naseby raged, another war was being fought. Its combatants fought with cunning and deceit in a hidden conflict that nevertheless would steer the course of history. The story of the spies and intelligence-gatherers of the Roundheads and Royalists is one that sheds new light on the birth of the Commonwealth.In ‘To Walk in the Dark’, intelligence specialist John Ellis presents the first comprehensive analysis of the First English Civil War intelligence services. He details the methods of the Roundhead spies who provided their commanders with a constant flow of information about the movements of the King’s armies, describes the earliest use of code-breaking and mail interception and shows how the Cavalier intelligence forces were overcome. He also reveals the intelligence personnel themselves: the shadowy spymasters, agents and femme fatales.The descriptions of how intelligence information was used in the main battles are particularly fascinating and show how intelligence information played a decisive role in determining the outcome of the Civil War itself.

From the time he was three or four years old, John Elder Robison realised that he was different from other people. He was unable to make eye contact or connect with other children, and by the time he was a teenager his odd habits - an inclination to blurt out non-sequiturs, obsessively dismantle radios or dig five-foot holes (and stick his younger brother in them) - had earned him the label ''social deviant''. It didn''t help that his mother conversed with light fixtures and his father spent evenings pickling himself in sherry.Look Me in the Eye is his story of growing up with Asperger''s syndrome – a form of autism – at a time when the diagnosis simply didn''t exist. Along the way it also tells the story of two brothers born eight years apart yet devoted to each other: the author and his younger brother Chris, who would grow up to become bestselling author Augusten Burroughs. This book is a rare fusion of inspiration, dark comedy and insight into the workings of the human mind. For someone who has struggled all his life to connect with other people, Robison proves to be an extraordinary storyteller.

Matthew was a tax collector, a disgrace to his people. But Jesus, in his grace, called him to be a disciple and to write a book about him for his own people, the Jews. The central theme of Matthew is two–fold:Jesus is the fulfilment of the promises in the Hebrew Scriptures and Jesus is the Messiah.  John D. Hannah’s valuable contribution to the Focus on the Bible series is a layman’s commentary to this crucial book. Moving through the book, he shows how Matthew records the claims of Jesus to be King,and the rejection of Jesus as King.

Scott Fitzgerald’s novel The Great Gatsby was first published on April 10, 1925. Set on Long Island’s North Shore and in New York City during the summer of 1922, it is the story of an attractive young man, hopelessly in love, who, having worked so hard to improve himself so he can win back the woman he loves, finds himself in a world where money has replaced humility and despair has replaced hope.For me, the novel is a comment on the values and cynicism of east coast America almost a hundred years ago, a time when a section of society had suddenly become very wealthy and the American Dream was for most, nothing more than the mere pursuit of money.’

Since the reforms of 1978, China has experienced an explosion of growth that not only radically changed the country's economic and social conditions, but also the international economic and strategic scenario. For several decades, the Chinese economy grew by an average of 10% annually, an unprecedented phenomenon. Other Asian countries, such as Japan or South Korea, also had periods of rapid growth and transformation, but in the case of China, the enormous size of its economy was added, which determined an equally enormous impact on the world. This book discusses China’s economic development from the perspective of five leading economists from outside of China. It analyses both the internal and external impact of China’s economy over the past 40 years, up to the present, when China faces unprecedented challenges and uncertainties arising from the USA’s economic and trade offensive.

Here Is Where You Can Find Inspiration and Encouragement for Making Room for What Matters  The truth about clutter: Cluttered thoughts can distract us from focusing on the truth of GodÂ’s love. Cluttered feelings can stifle our spiritual growth. Cluttered spiritual lives can weigh us down, preventing us from living in the joy of Jesus. Cluttered countertops can prevent us from accumulating the real and lasting treasure mentioned in GodÂ’s Word. And if we''re being honest, we all have clutter in our lives—in one form or another—whether itÂ’s physical, spiritual, or mental. And while clutter often seems harmless, the truth is that it takes up precious, much-needed space. . .space that could—and should—be occupied by something much more valuable. Clutter frustrates us, confuses us, and amplifies our anxiety. It distracts us from what really matters in life and limits our God-given potential.The Declutter Devotional will guide you to the clutter-free life you desire. Overflowing with inspiration and biblical truth, each devotion touches on proven ways to declutter your heart, mind, spirit, and surroundings so you can truly be free to make room for—and fully focus on—the things in life that matter most.  Â

The objective of this book is to show in detail how electromagnetic waves existing in the environment can affect the electrochemical currents present in the brains and bodies of living beings that serve to communicate with their internal organs as well as with other living beings. These electromagnetic waves are intensely distributed by current means of communication (television, cell phones, radar, medical equipment, electrical machines, electrical networks) and by the stars in the universe. Such waves can affect in one way or another the electrochemical currents of living beings, which seem to be currently interpreted as sensations, hypnosis, telepathy, intuition, spells, mediumship, visions, precognition, as well as other less widespread forms such as telekinesis, radiesthesia, clairvoyance, precognition and teleportation. Several world-famous examples of these possibilities are illustrated in the final chapter of this book.Key Features: 14 examples of diverse international case studies includedChallenges conventional ways of thinking by exploring the intersection of electromagnetic waves and extrasensory perception.Equips readers with insights into the various effects of electromagnetic waves in daily life, which promotes awareness of their environment and its different influences and how they impact people.Provides an engineering framework for understanding extrasensory beliefs and aims to explain the concept of historical ...
