Genocide, War Crimes and the West
Genocide and war crimes are increasingly the focus of scholarly and activist attention. Much controversy exists over how, precisely, these grim phenomena should be defined and conceptualized. Genocide, War Crimes & the West tackles this controversy, and clarifies our understanding of an important but under-researched dimension: the involvement of the US and other liberal democracies in actions that are conventionally depicted as the exclusive province of totalitarian and authoritarian regimes. Many of the authors are eminent scholars and/or renowned activists; in most cases, their contributions are specifically written for this volume. In the opening and closing sections of the book, analyti...
Men of the Global South
Men of the Global South: A Reader is the most diverse and accessible volume yet published on men and masculinities throughout the developing world. A Reader that also offers a wide range of original contributions, it explores male experience in a uniquely vivid and accessible way. Adam Jones provides a framing introduction that surveys the growing literature on Southern men and masculinities, and links it to the broader study of gender and development. Six main sections portray different aspects of male experience in the global South: 'Family and Sexuality', ;Ritual & Belief', 'Work', 'Governance and Conflict', 'Migrations' and 'Masculinities in Motion'. The text, richly complemented by a number of photographs, serves as an ideal introduction to the lives of men and boys from Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and Latin America/the Caribbean. This book will appeal to students and scholars of gender and development, as well as to general readers interested in gaining a greater understanding and appreciation of men’s roles, challenges, and contributions worldwide.
Eyes of the Garden
Eyes of the Garden By: Mark Cobbs Lewis Our universe is one of many, but there are few who truly understand what that means. Lucy Haddad and Joey Sanders do, and their friendship and seemingly supernatural connection might have the power to change the world. The pair met when they were children, and Lucy was the only person who could bring Joey, an autistic savant, out of his shell. Their bond was unique, and their accomplishments were remarkable. As adults, they went their separate ways for a time, but fate brought them back together. The story of Lucy and Joey spans the globe. Together, they will assemble a group of remarkable individuals and fight evils that lurk in the shadows. Together, they will plan and execute one of the most incredible schemes the world has ever seen. Everything and everyone is connected in ways that most of us could never conceive. Can opposing forces find balance? Can the world be made whole?

The Special Ones
In 2013 during the war in Afghanistan, a Russian scientist develops a drug to create Super Soldiers. Fifty years on, the world as we know it has changed. Countries have been colonized by China, whose empire grows considerably every day with the exception of the Alliance (England, France, Germany, and Russia), who are determined not to succumb to the Chinese regiment and create protectors using a modified version of the original drug. At the center of all is Zack Willis, a protector who appears to be normal at first, but he has a secret that not even he realizes. Damaged by an uncertain past, he and others must now embark on the search for who he is, occasionally with terrible consequences. Can he find the truth before his past catches up to him?
Doctor Jones' Picnic
The author is ready to substantiate the marvelous cures performed by Dr. Jones, for they are cases from practice. One of the objects of this work is to stimulate scientific investigation of the law of cure which guided the worthy Doctor in his selection of the remedy in a given case. As to whether Silver Cloud and her achievements be possible or not, I am not specially concerned. And whether there are air currents in the -upper deep,- as described within these pages, is a matter of little or no consequence.
