Book Description
Patricia is a young American doctor who comes to Russia during the raging years of the country’s attempt to create a democratic nation after the specter of Soviet totalitarianism. As an emerging democracy makes everything seem possible, Pat meets a brave security officer named Victor, and they fall in love. However, their romance begins to crumble as the KGB regains power and forges an unholy alliance with a priest and his shadowy cabal, which is but a fraction of an international conspiracy that professes, and practices, centuries-old black magic known as “the Caligula curse.” The noose of corruption and anti-American sentiments tightens around Pat and Victor. The couple tries to save their love as dark forces seize Russia. Danger arises in America. Powerful conspiracies, an ancient curse, and modern fallacies work against democracy and personal freedom.

Book Description
Of all Roman emperors none, with the possible exception of Nero, surpasses Caligula's reputation for infamy. But was Caligula really the mad despot and depraved monster of popular legend or the victim of hostile ancient historians? In this study of Caligula's life, reign and violent death, Anthony A. Barrett draws on the archaeological and numismatic evidence to supplement the later written record. In Professor Barrett's view, the mystery of Caligula's reign is not why he descended into autocracy, but how any intelligent Roman could have expected a different outcome - to grant total power to an inexperienced and arrogant young man was a recipe for disaster. This book, scholarly and accessible, offers a careful reconstruction of Caligula's life and times, and a shrewd assessment of his historical importance.

THE FORCE OF KARMA The sequel to Pira Sudham's 1988 classic Monsoon Country A new edition of the 2002 The Force of Karma Pira added additional last chapter in 2022 bringing the historical saga up-to-date. When the Red Shirts demonstrated in support of Thaksin Shinawatra the one sure outcome was that it wouldn't be the politicians, army generals or university professors who would be killed. That job is always left to the peasant farmers. The story picks up from Monsoon Country in 1981 and takes us through Thailand's modern history to the latest military coups. If you enjoyed Monsoon Country then The Force of Karma is a must read. "With his rich command of the English language Pira Sudham possesses the unique gift of being able to convey the cultural evolution of Thailand through the eyes of a poor farmer’s son. Pira’s insightful observations make fascinating reading and the lad who once tended buffaloes has become a significant voice for the people of the Northeast."

Book Description
Did Jesus rise from the dead? Although 19th- and early 20th-century biblical scholarship dismissed the resurrection narratives as late, legendary accounts, Christian apologists in the late 20th century revived historical apologetics for the resurrection of Jesus with increasingly sophisticated arguments. A few critics have directly addressed some of the new arguments, but their response has been largely muted. The Empty Tomb scrutinizes the claims of leading Christian apologists and critiques their view of the resurrection as the best historical explanation.The contributors include New Testament scholars, philosophers, historians, and leading nontheists. They focus on the key questions relevant to assessing the historicity of the resurrection: What did the authors of the New Testament mean when they said Jesus rose from the dead? What historical evidence is needed to establish the resurrection? If there is a God, why would He resurrect Jesus? Was there an empty tomb? What should we make of the appearance stories? Apart from historical evidence, is belief in the resurrection justified?The Empty Tomb provides a sober, objective response to arguments offered in defense of Christianity''s central claim.
