<p><strong>"Unforgettable...a true story of heroism, of magic and of madness." -<em>The Guardian, 2014</em><br /> "Absorbing. There is no book like it." -<em>The Weekly Review, 1920</em><br /> "The book reads like a wild romance, but is authenticated in every detail." -<em>The Builder, 1920</em><br /> "Awesome!! An incredible true story about two World War I prisoners of War who plan to escape from the hell hole they have been forced into." -<em>GeekTyrant, 2008</em><br /> "A remarkable tale of escape ... Jones's account would seem extraordinary if it hadn't been verified by his fellow prisoners." - <em>DJ Cockburn, 2018</em></strong></p> <p>Highly as he may esteem the art of fiction, every novel-reader has experienced the relief of stepping now and again into the free air of the "true story." It is like opening a door out of a hothouse into a garden. But few readers of Elias Henry Jones' 1920 book "The Road to En-dor" would realize on their own that the book is indeed a true story--because there simply is no other true story like it.</p> <p>Jones was a lieutenant in the British forces captured by the Turks at Kut-el-Amara in 1916, and was among the survivors of the brutal crosscountry march which landed the survivors in prison at Yozgad, 300 miles in the interior.</p> <p>Escape from any prison camp in Turkey was difficult. From Yozgad it was regarded as practically impossible. However, using Ouija boards, s?ances, mentalist scams, poltergeist effects, Jones partnered with C.W. Hill as fellow-spookers in a daring plan to escape the Turkish punishment camp.</p> <p>The plan was to make the Turkish authorities at Yozgad their unconscious accomplices. They intended to implicate the highest Turkish authority in the place in their escape, to obtain clear and convincing proof that he was implicated, and to leave that proof in the hands of fellow-prisoners before disappearing. It would then be clearly to the Commandant's interest to conceal the fact of their escape from the authorities at Constantinople.</p> <p>As Jones notes in introducing his book, "There is a good deal about spiritualism in this book because the method adopted by us to regain our liberty happened to be that of spiritualism. The book is simply an account of how Lieutenant Hill and I got back to England. The incidents may seem strange or even preposterous to the reader, but I venture to remind him that they are known to many of our fellow prisoners of war whose names are given in the text, and at whose friendly instigation this book has been written."</p> <p>Regarding a "treasure hunt" he convinced the Turkish authorities to undertake, Jones writes:</p> <p>"A treasure-hunt has a glamour of its own in the most material surroundings. A treasure-hunt under the guidance of a Spook ought to be a stunt beyond price. It only remained to prove that the Spook could find things and the Turk would be on the string....</p> <p>"The time had come to risk everything on a single throw. 'Let me tell you, then,' I said. 'You are going to ask me to find for you a treasure, buried by a murdered Armenian of Yozgad. You want me to do so by the aid of Spirits. And you are prepared to offer me a reward.' The Commandant leant back in his chair, in mute astonishment, staring at me...."</p> <p>Although the book reads like a wild adventure novel, it was authenticated in every detail by fellow-officers and official documents. The Turkish governor was actually court-martialed for his part in a treasure hunt instituted by the "spook."</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。・・・楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア

<p>N?r vi sammenligner ?stens filosofier og kvantefysikken, finner vi fascinerende analogier som inviterer oss til ? revurdere v?r forst?else av virkeligheten.</p> <p>Hensikten med boken er ? utforske den overraskende forbindelsen mellom hinduismens gamle filosofiske tradisjoner og kvantefysikkens prinsipper. Innledningsvis forklares de grunnleggende prinsippene i kvantefysikken og filosofien knyttet til denne nye vitenskapen p? en forst?elig m?te. Deretter f?lger en stemningsfull reise som f?rer leseren til ? oppdage hvordan disse to tilsynelatende fjerne realitetene kan samhandle og p?virke hverandre.</p> <p>Hinduismen, med sine dyptgripende metafysiske prinsipper, tilbyr et rammeverk som p? mange m?ter ser ut til ? foregripe kvantefysikkens oppdagelser. Boken sammenligner noen av hinduismens hovedtemaer med tilsvarende kvanteforestillinger.</p> <p>Brahman representerer den ultimate virkeligheten, en sammenkoblet helhet som gjennomsyrer alt. Dette er i tr?d med konseptet om kvantesammenfiltring, der partikler kan forbli sammenkoblet uavhengig av avstanden mellom dem, og antyder at separasjon p? det fundamentale niv?et kanskje bare er en illusjon. I en av Upanishadene st?r det: "Alt dette er Brahman", noe som understreker den universelle sammenkoblingen, og som minner om Higgs-feltet, som gir partikler masse og b?lgenatur.</p> <p>Atman, den individuelle sjelen som er en manifestasjon av Brahman, kan betraktes gjennom kvantesuperposisjonens briller, der en partikkel eksisterer i flere tilstander samtidig. Dette gjenspeiler ideen om at selvets sanne essens eksisterer p? flere virkelighetsplan.</p> <p>Karmabegrepet er basert p? loven om ?rsak og virkning, en parallell til Heisenbergs ubestemthet, der presisjonen i ett m?l p?virker presisjonen i et annet. Handlinger i n?tiden kan derfor p?virke fremtidige utfall p? m?ter som ikke alltid er forutsigbare.</p> <p>Moksha, frigj?ringen fra syklusen av d?d og gjenf?delse, har en parallell i kvantedekoherens, prosessen der et kvantesystem mister sine kvanteegenskaper. Denne overgangen representerer bevissthetens forvandling fra ?n tilstand til en annen, noe som er analogt med s?ken etter ?ndelig frigj?ring.</p> <p>Dharma, eller den etiske plikten, gjenspeiles i korrelasjonene mellom partikler, der samspillet p?virker oppf?rselen til et komplekst system. Enhver handling som utf?res i samsvar med dharmaen, kan ha langsiktige virkninger, og p? samme m?te former kvanteforholdene universet v?rt.</p> <p>Det b?r p?pekes at denne boken omhandler hinduistisk filosofi, ikke hinduistisk religion.</p> <p>Dette skillet er s?rlig relevant i forbindelse med kvantefysikk. Mens hinduistisk religion handler om hengivenhet og den kosmiske ordenen som er etablert av gudene, tilbyr hinduistisk filosofi et rammeverk for ? forst? en kompleks, sammenkoblet og stadig foranderlig virkelighet. For eksempel har ideen om maya - den illusoriske oppfatningen av den materielle verden - paralleller til kvantefysikkens usikkerhetsprinsipp, som sier at vi ikke samtidig kan vite n?yaktig hvor en partikkel befinner seg og hvor raskt den beveger seg.</p> <p>Endelig er religion en kollektiv og rituell vei, mens filosofi er en mer individuell og kontemplativ vei. Begge beriker hinduismen, men med ulike perspektiver og m?l. I religionen s?ker man forening med det guddommelige. I filosofien s?ker man en forst?else av tilv?relsen. De to dimensjonene eksisterer derfor side om side, men tilbyr ulike m?ter ? utforske den samme virkeligheten p?. Som Swami Vivekananda sa til Religionenes verdensparlament i 1893: "Hinduismen er ikke en religion, men en uendelig rikdom av menneskelig erfaring". En setning som perfekt oppsummerer denne rikdommen og kompleksiteten</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Apr?s avoir fait de cette ville du Pas-de-Calais le laboratoire de sa reconversion " sociale ", le F.N. en fera-t-il la vitrine de sa gestion municipale ? ? la veille des municipales de mars 2014, un remarquable document de terrain au c?ur de cette ville ville qui plonge chaque jour un peu plus dans la catastrophe sociale et politique, embl?matique de tr?s nombreuses situations simimlaires dans l'hexagone.</p> <p>Sous l'oeil des cam?ras, H?nin-Beaumont, au c?ur du Pas-de-Calais, est devenu un symbole. Symbole de la d?sindustrialisation, tant ce territoire a ?t? affect? par la crise du secteur minier et par des d?localisations qui, ? l'image de Metaleurop en 2003 et de Samsonite en 2006, ont durablement marqu? les esprits. Symbole de la faillite d'un Parti socialiste qui, jadis triomphant dans la r?gion, est aujourd'hui embourb? dans les affaires judiciaires. Symbole de la progression ?lectorale du Front national, au point que sa pr?sidente, Marine Le Pen, tente depuis plusieurs ann?es de faire de cette commune de 27 000 habitants son " fief ".<br /> Et d'?lections, il en est beaucoup question ? H?nin-Beaumont. Deux ans apr?s le m?diatique " duel M?lenchon-Le Pen " aux l?gislatives de 2012, le dirigeant local du parti d'extr?me droite, Steeve Briois, brigue la mairie en mettant en avant des slogans qui brouillent les lignes id?ologiques traditionnelles. Apr?s avoir fait de la ville le laboratoire de sa reconversion " sociale ", le FN en fera-t-il la vitrine de sa gestion municipale ?<br /> En se faufilant dans les usines, les caf?s et les rayons des grandes surfaces, en nous accompagnant dans les familles, les salles de bal et les coulisses du conseil municipal, Hayd?e Sab?ran redonne la parole aux habitants de la ville, trop rarement ?cout?s. Et raconte avec subtilit? une histoire plus singuli?re qu'on ne pourrait l'imaginer.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>The subject of tithe; how, when and where to tithe has been a heated debate for many generations in the body of Christ. Opinions are as varied as one can imagine. Different generations and different denominations understand the covenant of tithes and tithing differently. Even where and when the understanding is uniform, the practice of tithing is done differently from one church to another. However, one thing is clear from the scriptures; tithing gives the “tither” access to heavenly supply.<br /> The Bible says: Bring ye all tithes to the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, saith the lord of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it. And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the Lord of hosts. And all the nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the lord of hosts. (Malachi 3:10 ? 12)</p> <p>Tithing is a mystery in the body of Christ. It is a mystery that connects the believer with a supernatural supply. Tithing connects the “tither” with an unlimited heavenly supply which The Bible refers to as “the windows of heaven.”</p> <p>The aim of this book is to try to shed some light on this important mystery which is extremely relevant in our walk with God. This book will try to educate and inspire the reader to be a committed “tither” based on the knowledge of the Word of God and not hearsay or false doctrine peddled by some people.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>This book offers the full, annotated translation of a recently discovered Dutch account book recording trade with Native Americans in Ulster County, New York, from 1712 to 1732. The ledger contains just over two-thousand transactions with about two-hundred native individuals. Slightly more than one-hundred Indians appear with their names listed. The volume and granularity of the entries allow for detailed indexing and comparative analysis of the people and processes involved in these commercial dealings in the mid-Hudson River Valley.</p> <p>Waterman and Smith place this exceptional resource within its historical context, presenting figures and tables with aggregated data. They examine several key aspects of the intercultural exchanges, such as the high level of participation by Native American women and the growing importance of the deerskin trade in this region. In addition, the appendix contains individual profiles of forty Esopus and Wappinger Indians appearing in the Ulster County account book.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p><strong><em>We Wish to Inform You That Tomorrow We Will Be Killed with Our Families</em> is the winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction.</strong></p> <p><strong>An unforgettable firsthand account of a people's response to genocide and what it tells us about humanity.</strong></p> <p>This remarkable debut book from Philip Gourevitch chronicles what has happened in Rwanda and neighboring states since 1994, when the Rwandan government called on everyone in the Hutu majority to murder everyone in the Tutsi minority. Though the killing was low-tech--largely by machete--it was carried out at shocking speed: some 800,000 people were exterminated in a hundred days. A Tutsi pastor, in a letter to his church president, a Hutu, used the chilling phrase that gives Gourevitch his title.</p> <p>With keen dramatic intensity, Gourevitch frames the genesis and horror of Rwanda's "genocidal logic" in the anguish of its aftermath: the mass displacements, the temptations of revenge and the quest for justice, the impossibly crowded prisons and refugee camps. Through intimate portraits of Rwandans in all walks of life, he focuses on the psychological and political challenges of survival and on how the new leaders of postcolonial Africa went to war in the Congo when resurgent genocidal forces threatened to overrun central Africa.</p> <p>Can a country composed largely of perpetrators and victims create a cohesive national society? This moving contribution to the literature of witness tells us much about the struggle everywhere to forge sane, habitable political orders, and about the stubbornness of the human spirit in a world of extremity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
