Book Description
When Gordeff discovers a wall while hiking in the mountains near his village in far northern Russia and sees the terrifying creatures for himself, he realises the stories about King Dhul-Qarnayn are all true. When he later witnesses the collapse of the Last Great Barrier, he knows it will not be long before the nations of Gog and Magog (Yajouj wa majouj) pour forth to wreak their brutal vengeance on an unsuspecting world. Set in the not-too-distant future after a devastating global war, the author Sam Chehade tells in his novel, The Chasm of Hell, of Gordeff’s epic journey to warn humanity of the danger it faces. In a society where most forms of technology – including electricity and explosive weaponry – have been banned, Gordeff and his three companions must find a way to cross the continent and collaborate with both the ruling Candlelight Party and the rebel forces that oppose it. Nothing less than the fate of the human race is at stake.

Book Description
Today's malaise is in large part caused by people who underrate themselves and others. People who dwell on weaknesses . . . escape from reality through cynicism . . . or accept put-downs and cop-outs as a valid way of life. The Battens - a father-daughter team - stress, instead, a positive approach to living. Knowing full well that you become what you think and what you say, the Battens offer a way for you to identify your own strengths - and those of others - and to build on them . . .a way to a richer, more productive life centered on strength, a sense of wonder, and trust. This exciting, mind-stretching book will show you how to gain more confidence in yourself and in your ability to level with others. In the process of learning to ask What can we do to make things better? instead of What's wrong? you'll discover new ways to relate to people of your own age - or other generations - with trust, despite differences in outlook, social customs, or even dress. That spells the end of the mythical generation gap. 'The Confidence Chasm' contains a proven blueprint for every employee . . . every manager . . . every parent . . . every child . . . every person who wants to fulfill his own potential for excellence and at the same time build open, trusting, supportive relationships with those around him. Right from the start, you'll find this book packed with practical guidance for creating a more rewarding relationship with family, friends, and business associates. You'll get levelheaded advice on such vital problems as: - Setting - and reaching - increasingly difficult goals. - Making employees happier - and more productive - by giving them hard jobs that make them dig down inside themselves for strengths they never knew they had. - Listening to others and understanding what they say and what they leave unsaid. - Helping to build a better world by developing compassion - untinged by expediency or compromise. - Avoiding despair because you're busy building a better organization, a better community, a better climate for global trust. 'The Confidence Chasm' will be especially helpful to businesspeople, teachers, homemakers, supervisors, ambitious college graduates, clergy, professional people - in short to anybody who wants to make their life more rewarding by relating to others with different backgrounds and viewpoints.

Book Description
The author started his working career as an Air Traffic Control Officer in the Royal Australian Air Force, and after resigning his commission, spent thirty-five years in the Information Services industry. In the context of his writings, he describes himself as an analyst, by aspiration, inclination, proclivity, training, and occupation. His books reflect his primary intellectual pursuit: explanations given for human existence by both religions and evolution. Having published several analyses including “Religion: Of God or Man” and “Seeking After God”, he concluded that there was nothing more that he could learn on that subject – the issue remained an enduring mystery. Returning to the other explanation, evolution, he had long wanted to complete a more thorough analysis of evolution theory, than as presented in his earlier publications, “The Dawkins Deficiency” and “Information, Knowledge, Evolution and Self”. This required that he acquire and study dozens of academic books and other publications, seeking to understand the plausibility, and at times hollowness, of scientific explanations. Using his background knowledge of relevant technologies, he was able to identify parallels between modern automation and mechanisation, and human biological processes. One of particular interest was an analysis of the technical similarities between the human sensory system, and modern telemetry systems. With a lifelong passion for a travel, and a modest appetite for adventure, he has trekked in the Khumbu and Annapurna regions of Nepal, the Peruvian Andes, and Patagonia. His hobby, apart from writing, has been a love of all things motorcycling, from touring remote areas, and attending races, to complete restoration of vintage motorcycles. He has motorcycled throughout parts of his native Australia, North America, New Zealand, Iceland, Bolivia, Peru, Turkey, the Himalaya, Morocco, Greece, and eastern Europe. His business and holiday travels have taken him through sixty countries, and all continents, including Antarctica. Evolution is defined as the change in the heritable characteristics of biological populations over successive generations, resulting in changes in both the genotype and phenotype. The evidence for evolution is primarily circumstantial, being based on fossils of extinct species, physical similarities, and a largely common genome. Charles Darwin believed that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce. Today, we know so much more than Darwin did 150 years ago, leading many scientists to discard genetic mutation and natural selection as having the development power previously ascribed to them. What has been missing in the science so far is “systems thinking” - a holistic approach to analysis that focuses on the way that a system's constituent parts interrelate, and how systems work over time and within the context of larger systems. Questioning whether the mind consists of organs of the brain, an emergent property of the brain, or activities of the brain, as scientists suggest, the author has concluded for none of these. The brain being physical, it can only deal with the physical, but the mind deals in the conceptual, which has no physical properties. With his background in related technologies, the author has compared the human nervous system with telemetry systems as used in modern aircraft, vehicles, and other applications. Though implemented differently, the functional requirements remain the same, which has prompted a different perspective on how it could have evolved. The telemetry system in the human body is astounding in its complexity, accuracy, and reliability, leading to the author’s doubts as to its claimed evolutionary origins. Crossing a Chasm is an analysis of the probability that such could be accomplished by innumerable, unguided small steps, over whatever time.
