BLACK BOOK
BLACK BOOK is just another poetic chapter in the life of Mose Xavier Hardin Jr. I have changed and grown over the years overcoming depression, loneliness and a great deal of pain. I have managed to find love again in my 50s. I have managed to survive countless trials with racism and discrimination. I have managed to survive prostate cancer. I have learned to pick my battles and my friends more carefully. I have learned I still have so much more to say!
The Search for a Method
Morrison argues that focus groups are overused and cannot deliver what is often claimed. The study compares the organisation of knowledge within a university setting and in market research.
Lies, Israel's Secret Service, and the Rabin Murder
The history of confessed lies from Israel's Secret Service and its impact on the continued cover up of Prime Minister Rabin's murder. 'Here we are blaming Yigal Amir, but it is not that simple. It's much deeper and more complicated.' Dalia Rabin-Philosof Olam Ha-Isha (Women's World), November 1999 'There is nothing sacred, not in the verdict, nor in the findings of investigation committeees.' Tom Segev Ha-aretz, October, 1999
Beyond Gay
Few moral issues are as divisive and controversial in American culture, politics, and morality. David Morrison, a former gay rights activist, writes from the front lines of this battle. A man who once debated Christian critics on the subject of homosexuality, Morrison experienced a profound conversion. Through his growing awareness of God's love, he came to understand the true meaning of human sexuality. Through God's grace, he made the decision to live with his same-sex attraction while refusing to be defined by it or act upon it.
A Dangerous Delusion
The definitive case against military action in Iran, passionately argued and meticulously researched In 2013 it is possible that Israel, backed by the United States, will launch an attack on Iran. This would be a catastrophic event, risking war, bloodshed, and global economic collapse. In this passionate but rationally argued essay, the authors attempt to avert a potential global catastrophe by showing that the grounds for war do not exist, that there are no Iranian nuclear weapons, and that Iran would happily come to a table and strike a deal. They argue that the military threats aimed by the West against Iran contravene international law, and argue that Iran is a civilized country and legitimate power across the Middle East. For years Peter Oborne and David Morrison have, in their respective fields, examined the actions of our political classes and found them wanting. Now they have joined forces to make a powerful case against military action. In the wake of the Iraq war, will the politicians listen?

About Time
'An utterly dazzling book, the best piece of history I have read for a long time' Jerry Brotton, author of A History of the World in Twelve Maps 'Not merely an horologist's delight, but an ingenious meditation on the nature and symbolism of time-keeping itself' Richard Holmes The measurement of time has always been essential to human civilization, from early Roman sundials to the advent of GPS. But while we have one eye on the time every day, are we aware of the power clocks have given governments, military leaders and business owners, and how they have shaped our lives and our world? In this spectacularly far-reaching book, David Rooney narrates a history of timekeeping and civilization in twelve concise chapters. Over their course, we meet the most epochal inventions in horological history, from medieval water clocks to Renaissance hourglasses, and from stock-exchange timestamps to satellites in Earth's orbit. We discover how clocks have helped people navigate the globe and build empires, but also, on occasion, taken us to the brink of destruction. This is the story of time, and the story of time is the story of us.

Edge of the Grave
Edge of the Grave by Robbie Morrison is a dark historical crime novel set in Glasgow, 1932. A city still recovering from the Great War; split by religious division and swarming with razor gangs. For fans of William McIlvanney’s Laidlaw, Denise Mina and Philip Kerr. When Charles Geddes, son-in-law of one of the city’s wealthiest shipbuilders, is found floating in the River Clyde with his throat cut, his beautiful widow Isla Lockhart asks for Inspector James Dreghorn to lead the murder case. Dreghorn has a troubled history with the powerful Lockhart family that stretches back to before the First World War and is reluctant to become involved. But facing pressure from his superiors, he has no choice in the matter. The investigation takes him and his partner ‘Bonnie’ Archie McDaid from the flying fists and flashing blades of the Glasgow underworld to the backstabbing upper echelons of government and big business in order to find out who wanted Charles Geddes dead and why. As the case deepens, the pair will put their lives on the line in the pursuit of a sadistic killer who is ready to strike again . . .
