Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only the foolish believe that the Ku Klux Klan is dead in American politics. By the mid-1990's, under the powerful and far-reaching leadership of Ezra Theodore Krantz, the Ku Klux Klan reconstructs its hierarchy to attain loftier goals. By abandoning mere lynchings, the torching of Black churches, and burning crosses on lawns in the dead of night, these powerful men have set their sights on the near complete infiltration of American Government and the White House. Only then can they place a halt to undesirable immigration and detestable race mixing between Whites and Blacks. Incumbent Mississippi Governor Judson Martin, the KKK's best-kept secret, prepares to enter the 1996 Presidential Race with the backing of beguiled Blacks who see him as an honorable man. However, Ezra T. Krantz is forced to reveal unsavory facts concerning the governor's daughter. Governor Martin is overwhelmed by shock and utter revulsion when Krantz reveals that his daughter, Dr. Sabrina Martin, has taken an African American attorney as her lover in Atlanta, Georgia. While reeling in the wake of this unwelcome news, Ezra T. Krantz twists the knife on the burning hatred now raging in the governor's heart when he attests that Dr. Sabrina Martin's conception is the result of her missing mother's affair with yet another Black man. On Big Bear Mountain, in the Rockies of Montana, with the impending lunar eclipse upon a place that seems a bit too close to the moon, adversaries will clash in mortal combat between good and evil.

Book excerpt: "Backman really understands why business evolved the way it did in Asia."--Economist "Backman's brisk analysis . . . should be required reading. The real strength of Asian Eclipse is its accessibility to nonspecialists through its startling insights into the business interests, machinations, and relationships."--Independent (London) "The research and reporting is impressive and up-to-date . . . it's a pleasure to read, rich in anecdotes and never boring or academic."--Far Eastern Economic Review Named one of the finest general nonfiction books of 1999 by the Economist, Asian Eclipse was the first book to comprehensively assess the corporate and business practices in Asia. This revised and updated edition features a new chapter on the Internet and e-commerce in Asia and updates on current markets and events. Michael Backman (Australia) is a leading researcher specializing in Asian corporate practice and a regular contributor to numerous leading newspapers and magazines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From an award-winning author, astronomer, and anthropologist, an exploration of the scientific and cultural significance of the mesmerizing cosmic display. Since the first humans looked up and saw the sun swallowed by darkness, our species has been captivated by solar eclipses. Astronomer and anthropologist Anthony Aveni explains the history and culture surrounding solar eclipses, from prehistoric Stonehenge to Babylonian creation myths, to a confirmation of Einstein’s theory of general relativity, to a spectacle that left New York City in the moon’s shadow, to future eclipses that will capture human imaginations. In one accessible and engaging read, Aveni explains the science behind the phenomenon, tracks eclipses across the ancient world, and examines the roles of solar eclipses in modern times to reveal the profound effects these cosmic events have had on human history. Colored by his own experiences—Aveni has witnessed eight total solar eclipses in his lifetime—his account of astronomy’s most storied phenomenon will enthrall anyone who has looked up at the sky with wonder. “Aveni’s authoritative but accessible text is the clearest statement of the way our perception of eclipses has changed over the centuries.” —Stuart Clark, New Scientist “Authoritative and engaging.” —Marcelo Gleiser, NPR’s 13.7 “A recommended way to share the spirit of the occasion.” —Laurence A. Marschall, Natural History magazine “Everything you need to enjoy a solar eclipse—and even predict one, just like the Babylonians did! Aveni’s entertaining explorations show the very different impacts eclipses have had on past and present cultures.” —David DeVorkin, National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who hasn't dreamed of going to the moon? That dream for eleven-year-old Leo Gray is about to come true—but he’s in for the surprise of his life! In the year 2113, most people live in robotically maintained homes, ride around in self-flying cars, and wear ozone-resistant clothes. Most people that is; just not Leo Gray’s parents. They’re stuck in the past, and science know-it-all Leo is completely fed up with his beyond-embarrassing living arrangement with them. But when he enters a rocket-building competition for a chance to attend the Lunar Academy, Leo’s luck finally seems to turn in his favor! However, it's not long after stepping foot into his dorm room that Leo discovers the moon’s celebrated city is harboring a world of dark secrets. It's soon a race against the clock for Leo and his friends Andromeda Groves (a code-hacking whiz from Canada), Pavo Digbi (a history buff from Brazil), and Grus Pinwheel (a musically gifted and comically endearing Aussie) to intercept and foil plans to destroy the city—leaving the group’s leader faced with a decision that no eleven-year-old should ever have to make: save Earth or save himself and the city he fought so hard to reach. ​Leo Gray and the Lunar Eclipse is an epic adventure set in a wonderfully imaginative, futuristic world overflowing with robots, anti-gravity sports, superhero-esque suspense, and page after page of laughter and heart that will leave boys and girls equally gripped under its spell!
