Cult Leaders
Some individuals have such a magnetic personality that they can attract a hugely devoted following, ignoring the misdeeds of their leader and even committing evil on their behalf. With religious, spiritual or philosophical beliefs to guide them, cults can lead to some of the disturbing events of the modern era. Filled with shadowy rituals and sinister hierarchies and led by masterful manipulators, they can easily become the site of unthinkable horror - and it is only after the leader is brought down that those caught deep inside truly understand what was going on.This book explores the cases of some of the most horrifying cults ever to have existed, including:• The Family, led by Charles Manson, a cult of death and destruction which terrorized Los Angeles in the 1960s.• The Branch Davidians, led by David Koresh, a doomsday cult that ended in a tragic shootout with the authorities.• The Peoples Temple, led by the Reverend Jim Jones, who orchestrated a mass murder-suicide after convincing his followers to relocate to a remote commune in the Guyana jungle.• Aum Shinrikyo, founded by Shoko Asahara, which carried out a number of terrorist attacks in Japan in the late 20th century.Fully illustrated with maps, photographs, illustrations, and information boxes with key facts on the cult leaders and their crimes, this chilling book is the essential guide to those who manipulate and murder their way to infamy.

The Political Economy of South Africa's Post-apartheid Transition: The Rejection of Alternatives to Neoliberalism
South Africa’s post-apartheid transition has proven disastrous. But what caused this unfortunate trajector? oday, the country is marked by the emergence of a black elite of enriched capitalists who have benefitted from the globalization, neoliberalization and financialization of the economy in general, and from its Minerals-Energy and Financial Complex in particular. By contrast, inequalities, poverty and failing social provision have persisted. Recent attention has shifted to how this trajectory was initiated, with some suggesting a lack of available alternative policy options at the time of transition. The Political Economy of South Africa’s Post-apartheid Transition shows this to be false. In fact, a full range of progressive alternatives were rejected, leading to corresponding consequences from “state capture” to electoral defeat.
A Socialism for the Twenty-First Century
Domination, ecological crises and many other pathologies are intrinsic features of capitalism, not bugs that can be corrected. But is a better way of organizing society possible? Marx called for a society where the ruling principle is “the full and free development of every individual”. Capitalism neither is nor can be such a society. But if we can imagine one, can we be confident it could be put into practice? The answer to both questions is an emphatic ‘Yes!’ This book makes the case for a workable model of republican socialism, a vision of socialism worth fighting for.
Ježíš a eséni
NOVÉ POHLEDY NA JEŽÍŠOVU SLUŽBU A KUMRÁNSKÉ SVITKY
Oficiální verze počátků křesťanství a Ježíšova učení je výsledkem politických bojů v rané církvi. Objevení svitků od Mrtvého moře, které byly pečlivě uchovávány v tajnosti, otevřelo Pandořinu skříňku a odhalilo, jak moc je dogmatismus a cenzura součástí církve. Kniha Ježíš a eséni poskytuje detailní pohled na Ježíše jako člověka, na jeho skutky, a na každodenní život v Izraeli té doby.
Společenství kumránských esénů se stalo předmětem mezinárodního a gnostického studia propojení Ježíšova učení s dřívějšími tradicemi. Tato kniha podává vyčerpávající popis charakteru a poslání této komunity, jakož i narození a výchovy Ježíše a Jana Křitele. Také uvádí, jak eséni vykládali klíčové příběhy Starého zákona, především o Mojžíšovi, Ezechielovi, Danielovi a jiných, a navíc i překvapivé vhledy do dávné historie.
Tento výjimečný spis představuje novou podobu historického výzkumu a objasňuje mnohé nezodpovězené otázky a mylné interpretace. Má podobu přímého rozhovoru mezi výzkumnicí současné doby a členem kumránského společenství esénů, který žil přibližně ve stejném období jako Kristus. Tento dialog umožnila osoba, která se prostřednictvím regrese do minulého života napojila na minulý život a dávné vzpomínky. Tyto informace jsou nepřikrášlené a skutečné, i ty o hmyzu u Mrtvého moře, a narovnávají a doplňují mnohé představy a výroky z Bible.
Tato kniha je průkopnickým dílem v odhalování nových poznatků o životě a díle Ježíše jako člověka, který měl větší podíl na budování našeho moderního světa než mnozí jiní.

Communism in Philosophy
A new collection of essays on two of the most important communist philosophers of our time: Alain Badiou and Toni Negri. From the “red years” that followed the social explosion of May ’68 into the first decades of the twenty-first century, Badiou and Negri never abandoned their commitment to a militant politics of equality. Meanwhile, they produced two of the most imposing and consequential bodies of philosophical writing in the communist tradition. Alberto Toscano’s essays tackle multiple dimensions of their work—from ontology to biopolitics, from art to violence, from the theory of capitalism to the challenge of counter-revolution. But all of them are also efforts to explore and answer a single question: What does it mean to be a communist in philosophy?
Leaves of Grass
Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass is a clarion call to his country's people to join together in the "crowning growth of the United States". Its patriotic zeal made him a symbol of democracy in his country long before he achieved fame there as a poet.The intense emotion of Whitman's verse celebrates the regenerative power of nature and the immortal divinity of the human soul. His passionate beliefs are evident throughout this volume - in the radical "I Sing the Body Electric"; the patriotic "I Hear America Singing"; and the romantic "As if a Phantom Caress'd Me".This collection (the so-called "deathbed" edition of 1892) represents the culmination of Whitman's life's work and contains more than 400 poems.
A Szerelemvirág titka
Felhők gyülekeznek Flora, a Los Angeles-i galériatulajdonos feje felett, a munkájában és a magánéletében egyaránt. A vihar elől Normandiába menekül, a családi villába, amelyet nemrég örökölt meg az unokatestvéreivel, Stellával és Morgane-nal. Alig néhány nappal az érkezése után titokzatos csomag bukkan fel a küszöbön. Egy kaleidoszkóp, megsárgult fényképek és egy régi kézirat visszarepítik a nagyanyja, Joséphine ismeretlen múltjába. Az 1930-as években a fiatal Joséphine, a Művészeti Akadémia hallgatója, az impresszionista Párizs kávéházai és a fasiszta Olaszország márványpalotái között megismeri a szabadságot, a szerelmet... és az árulást. Flora megfogadja, hogy fellebbenti a fátylat a múltról, és izgalmas nyomozásba kezd, amely végül Korfu szigetére vezeti egy elveszett festmény nyomában. ClarisseSabard lenyűgöző, a "bolond évektől" napjainkig húzódó, titkokkal és fordulatokkal teli családregény-sorozatának első kötete tökéletes választás azok számára, akik szeretik a hosszú történelmi regényeket egy csipetnyi rejtéllyel és romantikával.
