Mythic Deities explores the profound influence of ancient beliefs by journeys through diverse cultures' pantheons, examining the roles, powers, and enduring impact of gods and goddesses on human faith and societal structures. Understanding deity worship provides insight into the human search for meaning and purpose. One intriguing fact is that the powers attributed to various deities often reflect a culture's values and fears, illustrating how societies projected their ideals and anxieties onto these divine figures.

This exploration unfolds chapter by chapter, starting with fundamental concepts of mythology and theology and proceeding into specific pantheons like those of Ancient Greece, Egypt, and Norse traditions.

 
The book's approach involves supporting its information with archaeological findings, primary source analyses, and comparative studies. By connecting fields like history, anthropology, and psychology, Mythic Deities provides a comprehensive understanding of deities' multifaceted role in human culture.

Totally fearless and a dead shot, Violette Szabo volunteered to become part of the Special Operations Executive, Britain's premier sabotage and subversion organization of the time. On June 7, 1944, Violette left behind a two-year-old daughter to parachute into France on a special mission.

Unable to walk due to a twisted ankle, Szabo covered the retreat of her comrades with machine-gun fire.

She was finally executed on January 26, 1945. She was twenty-three years old. 
 
 
 
This exceptional work has been written with the assistance of Violette Szabo's daughter Tanya and unravels fact and fiction about one of the most fascinating characters of World War II.

Sting and The Police - Walking...

Aaron J West

“An excellent look at how the Police accomplished success . . . West is especially good at examining how the band used the nascent MTV to define themselves.” ―Publishers Weekly   During the 1980s, The Police were one of the biggest bands in the world. Yet after only five albums—and at the peak of their popularity—they disbanded, and Sting began a solo career that made him a global pop star. Today, artists from Puff Daddy to Gwen Stefani credit The Police and Sting as major influences on their own work.   In this book, Aaron J. West explores the cultural and musical impact of Stewart Copeland, Andy Summers, and Sting. West details the distinctive hybrid character of The Police’s musical output, which would also characterize Sting’s post-Police career. Sting’s long-lived solo career embodies the power of the artful appropriation of musical styles, while capitalizing on the modern realities of pop music consumption. The Police—and Sting in particular—were pioneers in music video, modern label marketing, global activism, and the internationalization of pop music.  Sting and The Police: Walking in Their Footsteps is a feast for fans—and by placing the band within its various musical, cultural, commercial, and historic contexts, it’s also fascinating reading for anyone interested in global popular music culture.
