IN THE SHADOW OF TYRANNY:
This physician’s true stories carry the reader from his roots in rural America into a turbulent Congo devastated by dictator Mobutu’s excesses; into refugee camps on Cambodia’s border, a Cambodia ravaged by dictator Pol Pot; into the Artibonite Valley beside Haitian peasants victimized by dictator Baby Doc Duvalier’s bungling; and into an interlude working with the Lakota, Chippewa, and Quinault Tribes of Native Americans. Medical Doctor Jim Fett says, “I want the reader to garner a sense of sharing and searching in the lives and stories of these persons who deal with victory and defeat, life and death, healing and hope.”
Inside ISI
The book is relevant to all those who wish to know why and how terrorism shifted from West Asia to South and Southeast Asia and Africa. This significant shift needs to be studied in depth for policy formulation and future strategy.

For this to happen, the ISI has been playing the principal role. Thus, the focus in this book is on ISI as an instrument of spreading jihadi culture in Pakistan and elsewhere.

The desires whether conventional or eccentric, often transcend the realm of right and wrong and imbibe the power to pull the strings of the heart, the way they want. This anthology "SLAVE TO HEART'S DESIRE" has been made in collaboration with 29 exemplary writers.

Once it envelopes a person, it wipes away all kinds of prejudices and discrimination from his / her mind.
