  Proof: Does God Exist?

  "What with all the fuss over Jesus and Mary because of Dan Brown and the growing numbers who are suddenly taking religion seriously again it is good timing to see a balanced viewpoint arrive on the scene. Gardiner recently threw me off balance with The Serpent Grail and I have just finished Gnosis too, but this was just what I was looking for.
  
  It's simple, but concise and leads you through a process that you would go through yourself if you had time. I really enjoyed his light humour and easy-to-read style so yes, I recommend it. The Rosicrucian."

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  From the dawn of the railway age to the sleek high‑speed trains of the twenty‑first century, the story of the railroad has always carried a double edge—an instrument of triumph and transformation, and at the same time an arena of grief and devastation. Iron Catastrophes: A Global History of Train Disasters is a sweeping chronicle of how progress raced forward on steel tracks while continually stumbling into tragedy. 
  This book journeys across continents and centuries to chart the history of railway disasters in all their complex dimensions. Beginning with the earliest accidents of the nineteenth century, when untested locomotives burst their boilers or derailed on fragile tracks, it shows how railway travel was stamped by peril from its very birth. The death of British politician William Huskisson in 1830, struck down on the Liverpool and Manchester line’s opening day, symbolized how quickly innovation could turn lethal. Soon after came infernos, collisions in the fog, bridge collapses, and explosions that shocked a society intoxicated by speed yet horrified by risk. 
  The narrative then widens to explore disasters across Europe, America, Asia, Africa, and the colonial world. Chapters recount Europe’s notorious horrors—from Britain’s Harrow collision to France’s Versailles fire and Spain’s Torre del Bierzo tragedy—where crashes shattered faith in modernity. In America, endless expansion created reckless improvisations: wooden bridges that collapsed, locomotives that burned, collisions that littered small towns with wreckage. In Asia, the disasters grew on an almost unimaginable scale. India’s catastrophic wrecks, Japan’s cultural trauma at Amagasaki, Sri Lanka’s tsunami train engulfed by waves, and China’s modern tragedy at Wenzhou illustrate that even regions most reliant on the rails suffered losses measured in the thousands.

  Innovating Victory - Naval...

  Innovating Victory studies how the world's navies incorporated new technologies into their ships, their practices, and their doctrine. It does this by examining six core technologies fundamental to twentieth-century naval warfare including new platforms, new weapons, and new tools. Each chapter considers the state of a subject technology when it was first used in war and what navies expected of it. It then looks at the way navies discovered and developed the technology's best use, in many cases overcoming disappointed expectations. It considers how a new technology threatened its opponents, not to mention its users, and how those threats were managed. Innovating Victory shows that the use of technology is more than introducing and mastering a new weapon or system. Differences in national resources, force mixtures, priorities, perceptions, and missions forced nations to approach the problems presented by new technologies in different ways. Navies that specialized in specific technologies often held advantages over enemies in some areas but found themselves disadvantaged in others. Vincent P. O'Hara and Leonard R. Heinz present new perspectives and explore the process of technological introduction and innovation in a way that is relevant to today's navies, which face challenges and questions even greater than those of 1904, 1914, and 1939.
