  A Nation with Two Faces: A Brave Nation in the Darkness is a powerful reflection on Afghanistan’s twenty-year war, from the U.S.-led invasion in 2001 to the chaotic withdrawal in 2021. 
   It explores the rise, fall, and resurgence of the Taliban, revealing the deep political and cultural complexities behind their return. Through the voices of civilians, it documents the immense human cost, loss, displacement, and trauma etched into daily life. The book critically examines foreign interventions, questioning motives beyond the fight against terrorism. 
   Women’s rights and media narratives are analyzed in contrast with the lived realities of Afghan women. It confronts war crimes, injustice, and the silence around accountability, urging global awareness and responsibility. 
   Eyewitness memories bring raw emotion and vivid imagery to the chaos, fear, and resilience of Afghan communities. The book remains neutral, prioritizing truth over blame, and focuses on human stories above politics. 
   It highlights the gap between foreign policies and ground realities, emphasizing cultural misunderstanding. 
   Each chapter adds depth to the complex puzzle of Afghanistan’s struggle for peace, identity, and sovereignty. 
   This is not just a story of war, but a call for compassion, justice, and a rethinking of international intervention. 
   A tribute to the resilience of the Afghan people, the book serves as both a historical record and a message for the future.

  Ten years after the start of the Malian crisis, political and security instability in the Sahel have changed in scale and nature, and spilled over across national frontiers. The border region between Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger has become the new epicentre of insecurity.
  The comeback of military actors on the political scene, and the support provided by large parts of the population to post-coup military juntas is evidence of poor governance and a severe deterioration in the legitimacy of elected authorities. In this complex scenario, the initiatives of external partners affect regional balances, making the Sahel a major theatre for power competition.
  How did the crisis evolve over the past decade? What are the main drivers behind local, regional and international dynamics? What prospects for regional stability?

  A vital new framework for working with clients on the spectrum. 
   
   
   
  By presenting the autism diagnosis through the lens of a disordered nervous system—that is, by applying Polyvagal Theory—this book opens new avenues for intervention and treatment, while challenging age-old assumptions of what autism means and how it presents itself. 
   
   
   
  Here, Sean Inderbitzen—a therapist as well as someone living with autism—encourages clinicians to conceptualize their autistic clients' difficulties with social interactions and cognitive flexibility through a polyvagal lens. Inderbitzen argues that individuals with autism can be thought of as having deficits in accessing their ventral vagal nervous system—the system which promotes flexibility and connection to others. The book explores strategies to address these challenges through familiar tools such as motivational interviewing, clinical social work pedagogy, sensorimotor psychotherapy, mindfulness, biofeedback, and cultivating a sense of safety. Autism in Polyvagal Terms is an essential new text for anyone who works with individuals on the autism spectrum.

  The arrival of Jeanne D’Arc on to the earth plane and her subsequent adventures has left an un-erasable mark in the history books. 
  One of the greatest remote viewers of all time, the image of Jeanne D’Arc, the legend, visionary & clairvoyant, has weaved its magic transcending time itself.  
  Her strength, courage and compassion is recognised by protagonists, artists, musicians and even freedom fighters. She is a symbol against oppression and injustice. 
  But how did Jeanne D’Arc come to be? To unravel this mystery we must be prepared to unlearn everything that popular history has insisted we believe. Only then like a jigsaw puzzle adding piece by piece, we can obtain a clearer picture and by doing so rebuild the true character of Jeanne D’Arc, the saint, the visionary, the legend.

  When God Became White -...

  When Western Christians think about God, the default image that comes to mind is usually white and male. How did that happen? 
   
   
   
  Christianity is rooted in the ancient Near East among people of darker skin. But over time, European Christians cast Jesus in their own image, with art that imagined a fair-skinned Savior in the style of imperial rulers. Grace Ji-Sun Kim explores the historical origins and theological implications of how Jesus became white and God became a white male. The myth of the white male God has had a devastating effect as it enabled Christianity to have a profoundly colonialist posture across the globe. Kim examines the roots of the distortion, its harmful impact on the world, and shows what it looks like to recover the biblical reality of a nonwhite, nongendered God. Rediscovering God as Spirit leads us to a more just faith and a better church and world.

  I'm Black I'm Christian I'm...

  It's uncertain that Howard Thurman made the remark often attributed to him, "I have been writing this book all my life," but there is little doubt that he was deeply immersed in reflection on the times that bear an uncanny resemblance to the present day, which give voice to the Black Lives Matter movement. 
   
   
   
  Our "life's book" is filled with sentence upon sentence of marginalization, pages of apartheid, chapters of separate and unequal. Now this season reveals volumes of violence against Blacks in America. 
   
   
   
  Ten Black women and men explore life through the lens of compelling personal religious narratives. They are people and leaders whose lives are tangible demonstrations of the power of a divine purpose and evidence of what grace really means in face of hardship, disappointment, and determination. Each of the journeys intersect because of three central elements that are the focus of this book. We're Black. We're Christians. We're Methodists. Each starts with the fact, "I'm Black," but to resolve the conflict of being Christian and Methodist means confronting aspects of White theology, White supremacy, and White racism in order to ground an oppositional experience toward domination over four centuries in America.
