Synopsis

Terracotta Art explores the fascinating world of fired clay sculptures, revealing their historical and artistic significance across ancient civilizations. Often overlooked in favor of "precious" materials, terracotta artifacts provide invaluable insights into the lives, rituals, and artistic sensibilities of past societies. For instance, the book highlights how the independent discovery of firing techniques on different continents led to diverse artistic expressions, and it examines the role of terracotta in funerary practices, where figurines served as grave goods reflecting beliefs about the afterlife.

 
The book progresses through three key sections: the evolution of sculpting techniques, the diverse applications of terracotta in various cultural contexts (such as religious and domestic settings), and the cultural and historical interpretations of these artifacts.

 
By examining examples from ancient Egypt, Greece, China, and pre-Columbian America, the book demonstrates how terracotta sculptures served as vital historical records, offering unique perspectives often absent from written sources. This comprehensive approach, combined with its interdisciplinary perspective, makes Terracotta Art a valuable resource for anyone interested in art history, archaeology, and the enduring power of human creativity.

Tangled in Terror - Uprooting...

Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan

'Lyrical and uncompromising - Suhaiymah writes to disrupt' - gal-dem 
Islamophobia is everywhere. It is a narrative and history woven so deeply into our everyday lives that we don’t even notice it – in our education, how we travel, our healthcare, legal system and at work. Behind the scenes it affects the most vulnerable, at the border and in prisons. Despite this, the conversation about Islamophobia is relegated to microaggressions and slurs. 
In this audiobook, beautifully narrated by the author, Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan reveals how Islamophobia not only lives under the skin of those who it marks, but is an international political project designed to divide people in the name of security, in order to materially benefit global stakeholders. It can only be truly uprooted when we focus not on what it is but what it does. 
Tangled in Terror shows that until the most marginalised Muslims are safe, nobody is safe.

UAPs and the Nuclear Puzzle -...

Robert Salas, Stanton T....

In 1969 the US Air Force issued a statement that read‚ "No UFO reported, investigated, and evaluated by the Air Force was ever an indication of threat to our national security." This statement has been proven untrue by the testimony of many military officers and airmen and documentation of incidents involving UFOs and nuclear weapons, testimonies of which the US Air Force was fully aware. UAPs and the Nuclear Puzzle details many of these testimonies, some for the first time. 
 
 
 
As partial justification for its position, the Air Force cites a University of Colorado study that was contracted and paid for by federal funds. UAPs and the Nuclear Puzzle reveals how this study was actually just another part of the plan to cover up the reality of the UFO phenomenon. This book reveals evidence that the investigators for the Colorado study knew about the UFO-related missile shutdown incidents but did not investigate them or include them in their final report. 
 
 
  
As stated by Robert Salas: "To date, many former or retired US Air Force personnel—once trusted to operate or guard weapons of mass destruction—have come forward and revealed ongoing UFO surveillance of, and occasional interference with, our nuclear weapons. The entire body of these factual accounts alters the historical perspective on the nuclear arms race."
