Summary

In 'Select Masterpieces of Biblical Literature,' DigiCat Publishing embarks on the substantial task of curating a collection that showcases the breadth and depth of narrative tradition found within the most pivotal and influential body of literature known to the Western canon. This tome encompasses the quintessence of ancient storytelling, poetics, and wisdom literature, offering readers a distilled compilation of biblical narratives that possess enduring philosophical, moral, and cultural significance. The stylistic variety captures the myriad voices and historical contexts from which these texts emerged, providing a versatile literary experience rooted in the sacred, yet branching out into the realms of history and myth.

The consortium of authors, 'Various,' reflects not a single voice but the chorus of many who have contributed to the biblical landscape over centuries, redacted and preserved by a panoply of scribes, theologians, and scholars. Inherently, DigiCat's anthology is born from a deep reverence for humanity's collective written heritage, acknowledged by the careful reproduction and contemporary presentation. This edition represents not only a venture into religious territory but also a tribute to the enduring power of written word to convey truths across millennia.

'Recognized by DigiCat Publishing as a classic of world literature, 'Select Masterpieces of Biblical Literature' is recommended for those who seek to understand the foundational texts that have shaped moral philosophy, literature, and human civilization itself. This compendium is particularly suited for scholars, literary enthusiasts, and any avid reader eager to contemplate the germinating seeds of storytelling that have grown into the vast forest of modern literary traditions. In the spirit of acknowledgment and passion, the audience is invited to partake in this timeless celebration of biblical artistry.

    Severely disabled after contracting polio as a baby in working class Liverpool, Bert Massie found himself wondering as a boy why disabled people were expected to adapt to the world around them, and not the other way round. In his teens he began to campaign for rights for disabled people, and having battled his way through prejudice and the education system to become a Bachelor of Arts and a qualified social worker, he became a prominent figure in the fight for fair 
    treatment for disabled people leading to the ground breaking Disability Discrimination Act. He went on to serve as Chairman of the Disability Rights Commission and became a founding commissioner of the subsequent Equality and Human Rights Commission. His extraordinary achievements were recognised by the award of an OBE, then a CBE and finally, in 2007, a knighthood. This is his remarkable and engaging story, completed by his wife Maureen and friends after his death in October 2017. 
    Foreword by Lord Blunkett of Brightside and Hillsborough

Many have fallen ill, while others have worried endlessly about their own health and that of their loved ones.

    Medical doctor and psychiatrist Mark Goulston shares practical, evidence-based techniques and treatments for managing traumatic stress that will fill you with hope and inspiration. 
    In Why Cope When You Can Heal?, you will discover:real-world accounts and experiences from frontline workers;an overview of treatment options; andexercises, tools, and tips that you can use?today. 
    This guide will help you—and those you love and support in the COVID-19 battle—begin the process of healing from the inside out and reconnect with the joys and rewards of career and life.

    An analysis of the negotiations, both international and domestic, behind this landmark treaty through the words of those directly involved. 
     
    This book analyzes the elimination of intermediate-range nuclear force missiles through vivid, fresh impressions by those who conducted the INF negotiations. The Reagan-Gorbachev Arms Control Breakthrough brings this period to life through the writing of key participants in the seminal negotiations leading to the completion of the INF Treaty and the ensuing epic struggle to secure its ratification by the U.S. Senate.  
     
    The book provides an astute balance between the assessments of senior negotiators; “nuts and bolts” observations on specific elements of the Treaty by in-the-trenches negotiators; the tangles that challenged the keenest of legal minds; and the political maneuvers required to bring it through the pits and deadfalls of the Senate. Additionally, The Reagan-Gorbachev Arms Control Breakthrough provides an often-forgotten perspective of the moment, offering the opportunity for retrospective judgment. Is there a test that time demands? Are there “lessons learned,” conceived at the time, that still pass that test?

    A steak and kidney pie, influenza and a cablegram. There is the triple alliance that is responsible for the whole thing.So begins Charlie Chaplin's My Trip Abroad, a travel memoir charting the actor-director's semi-spontaneous visit to Europe. Fresh off the success of 1921's The Kid, Chaplin decides to "play hookey" after his seven year stay in Hollywood. He return to his native Europe as an international superstar, beloved by fans and hounded by reporters. The "triple alliance" of the book's opening line sends Chaplin on an whirlwind tour through Great Britain, Germany, and France -- and the results are both funny and insightful. My Trip Abroad gives us an intimate and moving portrait of a Hollywood legend.Published in the UK as My Wonderful Visit.
