Book Description
"Full of Machiavellian intrigue and searing political satire, the final volume of Abdelrahman Munif's landmark Cities of Salt trilogy - "the only serious work of fiction that tries to show the effect of oil, Americans, and local oligarchy on a Gulf country" (Edward Said) - chronicles the creation of a fictional Persian Gulf nation through the machinations of a corrupt Arab monarch and conniving British empire builders." "Set in the 1930s, Variations on Night and Day depicts the rise to power of Sultan Khureybit and the emergence of Mooran as a modern nation. Khureybit expands and consolidates his dominion, crushing rival clans by military force and internal opposition with bribes, guile, and assassinations - all in the name of holy war - even as he is being sponsored by the British government, which plays rival sultans off one another to secure its influence in the region. Against this setting we see as well the venality of the Sultan's polygamous household, in which his several wives vie for preeminence through gossip, chicanery, and murder."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Description
The cutting edge of medicine today is not to be found in invasive therapies like drugs and surgeries. It is in the disciplines that used to be regarded as "soft" medicine: prayer, intention, energy healing, acupressure, and similar therapies. Overwhelming evidence from hundreds of scientific studies are showing that these safe, non-invasive approaches are often more effective, sometimes many times more effective, than conventional medicine. Two of the pioneers in the field, Dr. Norman Shealy, founder of the American Holistic Medical Association and world-famous neurosurgeon, and Dr. Dawson Church, one of the foremost writers and researchers in vibrational healing, and the editor or author of many books on the subject, explain the fundamentals of energy medicine, its many applications to common ailments, and the latest scientific research.
