Book Description
Book of Fragments Volume Two is a continuation of artworks from the first volume (Book of Fragments) which was published in 2018. Whereas the first book explored contemporary topics in landscape, this volume focused more on the deeper inner struggles of human existence. Life has changed a lot in the past years, and narratives such as chivalry, honor, faith and deeper meanings have been lost in the process of machines taking over. We sleep with machines, eat with machines and are on the verge of thinking like machines. One can’t help but keep wondering, where will this all eventually lead humanity to? In this book, I attempted to self-discover and explore. What does it mean to be human, what does it mean to be separated from one self? If we took our parts fragment by fragment, will we still be human? The era has changed and the vocabulary followed suit. I somehow found myself trapped in the in-betweens of what is right and what is wrong. Book of Fragments Volume Two is my response to what my soul has been experiencing, where my mind has wandered, and where my thoughts have traveled to. This is a crucial era of change, and I, like many others, are struggling to find meaning without losing our soul. I hope one will find solace and understanding in this body of work. It was a one-year process of experimentation and I hope this book illustrates the new language I tried to speak. And so, with the grace of God others will hear and understand.

Book Description
The history of science is a story of human discovery--intertwined with religion, philosophy, economics and technology. The fourth in a series, this book covers the beginnings of the modern world, when 16th-century Europeans began to realize that their scientific achievements surpassed those of the Greeks and Romans. Western Civilization organized itself around the idea that human technological and moral progress was achievable and desirable. Science emerged in 17th-century Europe as scholars subordinated reason to empiricism. Inspired by the example of physics, men like Robert Boyle began the process of changing alchemy into the exact science of chemistry. During the 18th century, European society became more secular and tolerant. Philosophers and economists developed many of the ideas underpinning modern social theories and economic policies. As the Industrial Revolution fundamentally transformed the world by increasing productivity, people became more affluent, better educated and urbanized, and the world entered an era of unprecedented prosperity and progress.

Book Description
The Hellenistic Period (323-31 BCE) saw the Grecian phalanx--long dominant in Mediterranean warfare--challenged by legionary formations from the rising city-state of Rome. The Roman way of war would come to eclipse phalanx-based combat by the 160s yet this was not evident at the time. Rome suffered numerous defeats against the phalanxes of Pyrrhus and Hannibal, its overseas campaign against the brilliant Spartan mercenary Xanthippus met disaster, and several Roman victories over Hellenistic foes were not decisive. The story of combat in this pivotal era is not well documented. This book for the first time provides detailed tactical analyses for all 130 significant land engagements of Hellenistic armies 300-167 BCE.
