“Charles Farrell’s many personal encounters, questions, insights, and experiences as an observer of the sport… add a multifaceted richness to [this] essay collection….

A six-foot-six, 225-pound heavyweight with a chiseled physique and a traffic-stopping look, Green had ironclad street credibility—he was the gang leader of the Black Spades—and four New York Golden Gloves heavyweight titles.But his penchant for mayhem, drugs, and chaos, while keeping him in the news, torpedoed his pro boxing career.

Oxfordský historik Joseph P. Farrell se v tomto nejnovějším díle své bestsellerové série o potlačených technologiích, přežití nacistů a poválečných skrytých konfliktech skutečně překonává. Jeho obvyklý pečlivý výzkum a bystrá analýza rozkrývají celosvětovou síť nekalé finanční a technologické kontroly, o jejíž existenci má málokdo tušení.*****Farrell se zabývá vytvářením odštěpené civilizace nacisty v Jižní Americe a dalších částech světa.

Ukazuje, jak odštěpená civilizace vybudovala obrovský systém skrytého financování, na němž se podílela (mimo jiné) i Vatikánská banka, a jak NATO vytvořilo rozsáhlou síť tajných válečných operací a politické černé fondy.

Afghanistan was an unwinnable war. As British and American troops withdraw, discover this definitive account that explains why. It could have been a very different story. British forces could have successfully withdrawn from Afghanistan in 2002, having done the job they set out to do: to defeat al-Qaeda. Instead, in the years that followed, Britain paid a devastating price for their presence in Helmand province. So why did Britain enter, and remain, in an ill-fated war? Why did it fail so dramatically, and was this expedition doomed from the beginning? Drawing on unprecedented access to military reports, government documents and senior individuals, Professor Theo Farrell provides an extraordinary work of scholarship. He explains the origins of the war, details the campaigns over the subsequent years, and examines the West''s failure to understand the dynamics of local conflict and learn the lessons of history that ultimately led to devastating costs and repercussions still relevant today.''The best book so far on Britain''s...war in Afghanistan'' International Affairs ''Masterful, irrefutable...

Ve Sluneční soustavě existuje mnoho dokladů i pozůstatků po katastrofických událostech vpravdě obřích rozměrů. Povrchy planet jsou doslova poseté záhadnými krátery a geologickými útvary, jejichž původ vědci nejsou schopni vysvětlit. Joseph P. Farrell detailně prostudoval mýty několika starověkých kultur a dospěl k závěru, že nereferují o srážkách nebeských těles, jak se domnívá převážná část dnešních badatelů, nýbrž o válce kosmického rozsahu, kterou mezi sebou v dávné minulosti rozpoutali inteligentní obyvatelé naší sluneční soustavy. Podrobně analyzuje povrchové geologické útvary, nejmodernější koncepty fyziky i texty starověkých Sumerů, Egypťanů, Indů, Řeků a Židů, aby sestavil argumentační rámec, z nějž vyplývá jeho provokativní teze: v blízkosti naší planety se kdysi odehrál ničivý meziplanetární konflikt, v němž znesvářené strany proti sobě použily zbraně nepředstavitelné ničivé síly. Čtenář se může těšit na poutavé vyprávění o plazmových technologiích a tajích skalární fyziky, pyramidách a dlouhověkých sumerských vládcích, obrech, mimozemšťanech i záhadných "Deskách osudů", které měly moc zničit jediným gigantickým výbuchem celou planetu. Autor také seznamuje se šokujícími objevy, které na povrchu Měsíce, Marsu či Saturnových satelitů učinily moderní výzkumné sondy a na něž upozornili na nedávno zveřejněných nahrávkách i američtí astronauti na Měsíci.

Studie o organizaci Hamás založená na reportážích, rozhovorech a analýze situace na Blízkém východě. Beverley Milton-Edwardsová, jedna z předních světových odbornic na Blízký východ a Stephen Farrell, žurnalista z agentury Reuters (dříve The New York Times), čtenářům zprostředkovávají erudované informace o ideových východiscích, záměrech a cílech Hamásu, organizaci, o níž se obecně mluví v souvislosti se světovou bezpečností. Ačkoliv Hamás působí na Blízkém východě už desetiletí a je předmětem mnoha politologických diskusí, v Čechách dosud nevyšla komplexní studie, která by organizaci popsala. České vydání navíc reflektuje aktuální situaci prostřednictvím doslovu Ireny Kalhousové. Kniha odráží letité zkušenosti Milton-Edwardsové a Farrella s výzkumem a reportážemi z okupovaného Západního břehu Jordánu a Gazy, Jeruzaléma a celého Blízkého východu. Autoři zúročili svůj bezkonkurenční přístup k Hamásu a na základě rozhovorů se členy zakladatelské generace a jejich nástupci, kteří nyní organizaci vedou, mohli popsat její vývoj a aktivity od počátku, přes útok na Izrael ze 7. října 2023 až po současné ničivé následky. Kniha tak přináší informace, jak se malá palestinská odnož Muslimského bratrstva stala výzvou pro dlouholeté soupeře, jako je OOP, kdo Hamás podporuje, jaký je jeho program a jak mocným se stal a nebo jak silný zůstane.

Humankind has a profound and complex relationship with the sea, a relationship that is extensively reflected in biology, psychology, religion, literature and poetry. The sea cradles and soothes us, we visit it often for solace and inspiration, it is familiar, being the place where life ultimately began. Yet the sea is also dark and mysterious and often spells catastrophe and death. The sea is a set of contradictions: kind, cruel, indifferent. She is a blind will that will ‘have her way’. In exploring this most capricious of phenomena, David Farrell Krell engages the work of an array of thinkers and writers including, but not limited to, Homer, Thales, Anaximander, Heraclitus, Plato, Aristotle, Hölderlin, Melville, Woolf, Whitman, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Schelling, Ferenczi, Rank and Freud. The Sea explores the significance in Western civilization of the catastrophic and generative power of the sea and what humankind’s complex relationship with it reveals about the human condition, human consciousness, temporality, striving, anxiety, happiness and mortality.

How did Nietzsche and Sartre come to represent alternative modes of philosophy as antithetical thinkers? What exactly is their philosophical connection and how far does it extend? Tracing the connections between the existentialist philosophies of Nietzsche and Sartre, Nik Farrell Fox provides new readings attuned to questions of the self, politics and ethics. From their earliest to final writings, Fox brings into critical view the full trajectory of their lives and philosophy to reveal the underexplored parallels that connect them. Through engaging with new Nietzsche and Sartre studies as authoritative strands of interpretation, this book identifies both philosophers as twin thinkers of a deconstructive and paradoxical logic. Fox further re-examines their work in light of contemporary debates concerning posthumanism, vibrant materialism, quantum theory and speculative realism.The Parallel Philosophies of Sartre and Nietzsche presents two iconic existentialists as thoroughly contemporary thinkers whose complex, rich, and sometimes-ambiguous philosophy, can illuminate our present posthuman reality.
