Sinossi

96 AD. - After a lifetime spent defending the borders of the Chinese empire, General Ban Chao finds himself
wearing entirely new shoes. At the behest of Emperor Han Hedi, he will be assigned to lead a diplomatic expedition
 to the West in order to establish contacts with a vast and distant domain,
the one they call Da Qin and which in truth is none other than the Roman Empire. First, however, he will have to penetrate into
China, in search of a village apparently born out of the very first contacts between their civilizations.
Meanwhile, in Rome an elderly and respected Senator surprisingly attains the purple.
He will encounter immense difficulties in maintaining power while keeping away from his enemies: that, at least, until his
contact with a group of mysterious men who have come from the Far East.

    Pirates of Empire - Illicit...

    In the turbulent centuries of empire, the Caribbean was not merely a battlefield of nations, it was the beating heart of a global underground. Pirates of Empire reveals how smugglers, privateers, and rogue traders built an illicit economy that reshaped the Atlantic world, fueling fortunes, revolutions, and the birth of modern capitalism itself. 
    From Havana to Port Royal, from Bristol’s counting houses to the hidden coves of Hispaniola, Davis Truman uncovers the shadow networks that thrived beneath imperial rule. These were the real architects of the empire’s wealth, men and women who blurred the line between outlaw and entrepreneur, freedom and servitude, conquest and survival. Their ships carried more than plunder: they carried people, ideas, and commodities that transformed continents. 
    With gripping storytelling and cutting-edge scholarship, Pirates of Empire reframes piracy not as rebellion against empire, but as its indispensable partner. It exposes how colonial powers quietly relied on black markets to sustain their ambitions, and how these hidden economies gave rise to the modern Caribbean, multicultural, volatile, and endlessly creative. 
    Blending adventure and analysis, Pirates of Empire invites readers to sail into the murky waters where legality and legitimacy collided, and where the foundations of the modern world were forged in contraband and courage.

    The Tree of the Sephiroth may be considered an invaluable compendium of the secret philosophy which originally was the spirit and soul of Chasidism. The Qabbalah is the priceless heritage of Israel, but each year those who comprehend its true principles become fewer in number. The Jew of today, if he lacks a realization of the profundity of his people's doctrines, is usually permeated with that most dangerous form of ignorance, modernism, and is prone to regard the Qabbalah either as an evil to be shunned like the plague or as a ridiculous superstition which has survived the black magic of the Dark Ages. Yet without the key which the Qabbalah supplies, the spiritual mysteries of both the Old and the New Testament must remain unsolved by Jew and Gentile alike. 
    The Sephirothic Tree consists of ten globes of luminous splendor arranged in three vertical columns and connected by 22 channels or paths. The ten globes are called the Sephiroth and to them are assigned the numbers 1 to 10. The three columns are called Mercy (on the right), Severity (on the left), and, between them, Mildness, as the reconciling power. The columns may also be said to represent Wisdom, Strength, and Beauty, which form the triune support of the universe, for it is written that the foundation of all things is the Three. The 22 channels are the letters of the Hebrew alphabet and to them are assigned the major trumps of the Tarot deck of symbolic cards.

    Do you know what goes on in a typical modern classroom? Have you noticed how many children actually hate going into school and the effect school has on them? Do you  yourself feel an irrational fear of authority, ridiculously low in resilience, self-worth and self-confidence?You are not alone. This book reveals the dark agenda of the modern schooling system and its toxic effects on both pupils and teachers alike. Since it was first printed, the situation in the classroom has deteriorated catastrophically. Insane indoctrination, psychological torture and hyper-sexualisation are now the order of the day. Included are personal testimonies and rare insights into how we are damaged and traumatised by our schooling and how this affects our entire life. It suggests ways forward that could inspire you to take the necessary drastic action, including taking boys and girls out of school, to help save future generations from what is fast becoming an existential threat to mankind. The revelations in this book will also help you exorcise your own demons from the past.
