Book Description
The Flame of Eternity provides a reexamination and new interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophy and the central role that the concepts of eternity and time, as he understood them, played in it. According to Krzysztof Michalski, Nietzsche's reflections on human life are inextricably linked to time, which in turn cannot be conceived of without eternity. Eternity is a measure of time, but also, Michalski argues, something Nietzsche viewed first and foremost as a physiological concept having to do with the body. The body ages and decays, involving us in a confrontation with our eventual death. It is in relation to this brute fact that we come to understand eternity and the finitude of time. Nietzsche argues that humanity has long regarded the impermanence of our life as an illness in need of curing. It is this "pathology" that Nietzsche called nihilism. Arguing that this insight lies at the core of Nietzsche's philosophy as a whole, Michalski seeks to explain and reinterpret Nietzsche's thought in light of it. Michalski maintains that many of Nietzsche's main ideas--including his views on love, morality (beyond good and evil), the will to power, overcoming, the suprahuman (or the overman, as it is infamously referred to), the Death of God, and the myth of the eternal return--take on new meaning and significance when viewed through the prism of eternity.

Book Description
According to Helle Madsen, being the protagonist of a time-spanning epic love story has some things going for it, primarily Jason Morris. Because seriously, meeting up with your fated lover after 3 000 years apart is not bad--at all. Unfortunately, where Jason goes, there goes Sam Woolf, yet another very, very ancient acquaintance--with the fundamental difference that Sam is not into Happily Ever After. He's into destruction, more specifically of Jason and Helle. Helle may believe in second-chance love, but she sure doesn't believe in reincarnation. Okay, she didn't believe in stuff like that until she met Jason Morris a year or so ago. By now, she has accepted that sometimes impossible things are quite, quite possible--like an ancient princess being reborn as an ambitious financial analyst. Finding Jason was like finding the part of her that had always been missing--a perfect match. But handling Sam Woolf, the reborn version of their ancient nemesis is something of a trial. No sooner do you have him well and surely beat, but up he bounces again. Sheesh, will it take an oak stake to permanently rid their lives of him? Sam Woolf is a powerful adversary. Too powerful, even. Jason and Helle will need help from unexpected quarters to finally bring this tangled, ancient love-and-hate triangle to some sort of conclusion. Question is, will they survive the experience?

Book Description
Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

Book Description
Lydia is a true story, a fascinating tale about a brave young woman in search of love and total freedom. Lydia is an ambitious, strong-minded girl with a middle class background, that follows her dreams to discover her creativity and become an amazing artist. It is a controversial story about a small, unimportant girl entering a wide new world, starting from scratch, always finding practical solutions that change her life style rapidly. In search of her teacher, she dedicates herself to many different techniques that open the memory of her childhood and past incarnations, thus revealing the secrets of the unknown that keep following and frightening her from her birth. As she progresses, she loses weight, heals herself of cancer and other illnesses, overcomes other great difficulties, and step by step, comes from "thorns to the stars". But most of all, she makes her deepest wish come true - she finds her long awaited twin soul, with whom all parts of her life unite and make sense. Although she is connected with her higher self through her wise teacher, she is denied spirituality through the form of false prophets, and narrow-minded individuals in search of power and magic.
