Summary

Strategic Assassinations explores how targeted killings have shaped history, focusing on the motives, strategic considerations, and political fallout of these acts. The book argues that assassinations are not isolated incidents but calculated interventions capable of destabilizing governments and altering history. For example, the book investigates assassinations that triggered regime changes, fueled social revolutions, and redrew geopolitical maps. The book uniquely examines assassinations as strategic tools with specific political objectives, moving beyond simple narratives. It uses primary sources, archival records, and scholarly analysis to support its arguments. The book progresses systematically, starting with core concepts and historical perspectives, then analyzing case studies, and concluding with ethical dilemmas and long-term consequences. Drawing from criminology, international relations, and sociology, the book enriches its analysis. It demonstrates how understanding the strategic logic behind assassinations can help policymakers anticipate and mitigate risks associated with political violence. Ultimately, Strategic Assassinations provides valuable insights into political violence's enduring impact on world events.

Bridging Spirit and Science -...

Martin K. Ettington

Spirit and Science are viewed as opposing views. I have lived my life in the middle of this divide. Trained as an engineer and scientist, I was taught to trust logic, mathematics, and experimental proof.  
Yet my personal experiences — from moments of prophecy to direct awareness of subtle energies — convinced me that there is more to reality than conventional science admits.  
For years I tried to keep the two worlds separate: the rational and the mystical. But over time, the boundary dissolved. I realized that both perspectives describe the same universe from different vantage points.  
My work, and this book in particular, is about restoring the unity that once existed between them. 
The purpose of this book is not to replace science with mysticism, nor to reduce spiritual experience to chemistry or neurology. Rather, it aims to show that consciousness, energy, and matter are aspects of a single integrated system.

Janis Bryans

Lying, cheating, minimising, devaluing, humiliating, guilt-tripping, manipulating, triangulating, gaslighting, projection, covert and overt put-downs.
