  Ohio. A suicide, no fingerprints, no identity. 
   
   
   
  In July 2002, the Eastlake police discovered a decomposed body in a modest studio apartment in Cleveland, Ohio. It appeared to be a suicide by firearm. The man was Joseph Newton Chandler III, a retiree whom neighbors and former colleagues described as quiet, secretive, and strange. But as the investigation progressed, less and less about Joseph's life and identity made sense. 
   
   
   
  In 2018, thanks to scientific advances in DNA, the man's true identity was finally discovered: Robert Ivan Nichols. A veteran with a wife and three sons, Nichols eventually left his family, telling his wife "One day you will know why." A few years later, in 1965, his family reported him missing. By 1978, he had stolen the identity of Joseph Newton Chandler III, who had been killed in a car accident at eight years old. But who was this man and why did he change his name? What secret was he trying to hide? 
   
   
   
  Thibault Raisse examines the case, exploring the many theories that have emerged, from the craziest to the most credible. Among these theories is a possible connection to the Zodiac Killer, whose murders date back to 1968 and 1969 in California.

  Synchronicity - Nothing Just...

  Why do certain numbers follow you? Why does the right person appear at the exact moment you think of them? Why does a delay that ruins your plans later reveal itself as protection? And why does the world sometimes behave as though it knows more about your life than you do? 
  Carl Jung named the phenomenon in 1952. He called it synchronicity. But he described it without explaining how it works — and for seventy years, no one has filled that gap. Until now. 
  SYNCHRONICITY: Nothing Just Happens is the first book to propose a concrete engineering mechanism for how meaningful coincidences are produced. Not a spiritual metaphor. Not a description of the experience. A mechanism. 
  At the heart of the book lies the Dormant Template Theory — a model in which consciousness is the fundamental substrate of reality and the physical world is its rendered output. Within this architecture, synchronicities are not random. They are authored signals — embedded in the pre-structured template of your experience before you encounter them, calibrated to your awareness, and designed to evolve in response to your attention. 
  The model passes the test of quantum physics. The measurement problem, Bell's theorem, nonlocality, the fine-tuning of universal constants — each finds a structural explanation within the proposed architecture, more parsimoniously than standard interpretations provide. 
  Built on years of direct research into expanded states of consciousness — including documented contact with non-human intelligence — this book bridges the gap between rigorous theoretical framework and honest first-person testimony. Eleven chapters, constructed as a single argument, from first principles to personal field report. 
  This is not spiritual mainstream. There are no affirmations. No angel numbers. This is an engineering inquiry into the architecture of reality — written for listeners who want structure, not sentiment. 
  As Einstein said — God does not play dice. This book explains why.

  Are you curious about the nature of time-space and the dynamics of human lives within it? Dive into this book and explore these fascinating concepts.
   
  Time, the fundamental dynamo, leads the union with space, its perennial partner. Together, they frame a vast and restless cosmos where all individual has their unique time and place. Yet, humans do not survive alone; they share this beautiful but tiny planetary homestead with many 
  other species.
   
  While humans walk upon Planet Earth, they simultaneously scan the stars, probing the unfolding saga of their home planet and the entire cosmos:‘Twinkle, twinkle, little star How I wonder what you are…’
   
  This book combines insights from history, physics, geography, and literature – not forgetting songs. The opening section reveals how humans live, remember, forget, and think through time. The next section highlights key features of time and explains why denying time is nonsensical.
   
  The final section surveys the collective human journey through time-space. Humans are a complex species, capable of both deceit and trust, hatred and love, conflict and cooperation. Yet, slowly, they are creating international networks and a global civics. This exciting trend is 
  crucial, especially in responding effectively to today’s urgent climate crisis on Planet Earth.

  Democratic Delusions - How the...

  A free media is inextricably linked to a healthy democracy, but in many parts of the world liberal democracies are deemed to be dying or on the demise—a demise that many forms of media have enabled while heralding themselves as democracy's savior. The hollowing out of democracy in these ways has left many people questioning the value of (neo)liberal democratic societies. What can we do about it? 
   
      
    
  Democratic Delusions explores the potential of our media and tech systems to be democratic and contribute to a just and transformative democracy. This is only possible, Natalie Fenton argues, by first situating our political systems and mediated worlds within global capitalism. By interrogating different media and their relationship to seven key elements of democracy—power, participation, freedom, equality, public good, trust, and hope—the book asks: What is the response of society when the ability of news media to speak truth to power has been restricted by corporate logic? And, how do we tackle a deep-rooted market logic that shifts public debate towards private interest and marginalizes progressive perspectives? The book explores how these elements can be reimagined through newly conceived media and tech landscapes and, ultimately, what democracy might be in a future mediated world that places more power in the hands of more people.

  1941: THE WAR BECOMES GLOBAL -...

  1941: THE WAR BECOMES GLOBAL The Second World War, Volume Three 
  The world caught fire in 1939. In 1941, the fire became a furnace. 
  In twelve months, the Second World War is transformed beyond recognition. A compact German general steps off a transport in Tripoli and begins rewriting the rules of desert warfare. Three million men surge across the Soviet frontier in the largest land invasion in human history, and behind them come the killing squads. On a quiet Sunday morning in Hawaii, the last great power on earth is dragged into the flames. By December, the war has consumed Europe, North Africa, the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the vast interior of the Soviet Union. It has become, at last, a world war in every meaning of the phrase. 
  This third volume in Quentin Drummond Anderson's acclaimed seven-volume narrative history follows 1941 chapter by chapter through its cascade of defining moments. Rommel arrives in Africa with two divisions and reverses six months of British victories in three weeks. The Hood — symbol of British naval supremacy — is destroyed in eight minutes. Barbarossa sends three million men across the Soviet border into one of the most savage campaigns in military history. And at Pearl Harbor, the United States is pulled into a conflict that will reshape the world for generations. 
  But 1941: The War Becomes Global does not flinch from the darkest material. The Einsatzgruppen — the mobile killing units that followed the Wehrmacht into the Soviet Union — are not a footnote here. They are part of the story of Barbarossa, inseparable from it. The military history and the history of the Holocaust are not parallel stories in 1941. They are the same story. 
  Written with the narrative drive of the finest military fiction and the rigour of serious scholarship, this is history lived from the inside — through the soldiers in the snow outside Moscow, the sailors on the Arctic convoys, the aircrews over Pearl Harbor, and the civilians in the cellars of Leningrad.
