American Torture
Contrary to US government assertions, the Abu Ghraib photos do not reflect the perverse handiwork of a 'few bad apples'. As American Torture reveals, tortures such as sensory deprivation, sexual humiliation and forced standing are core elements of the American detention regime, a product of more than sixty years of government research and development fully detailed in extensive CIA manuals. In the wake of the Abu Ghraib scandal, mainstream media and human rights organisations have exhaustively documented the American use of torture in detention centres around the world. Although expansive, these reports lack context. American Torture examines the origins of this detention regime and traces how it was refined, spread and kept legal. Along the way, American Torture uncovers the effects of state-sponsored torture and deconstructs the myths espoused by its proponents. What are the ramifications of such praxis for global security? The book will also feature an interview with Mamdouh Habib, and look at the plight of Guantanamo Bay detainee David Hicks.

Destiny
Destiny is about two different cultures. It deals with love, loss, and fate and is a young adult romance novel that will appeal to everyone: fantasy readers, hopeless romantics, as well as those who enjoy a good story and a happy ending.

It talks about two main characters: Sheena Becker, a young woman in her twenties who, like many, dreams of something that is very difficult to have because of cultural differences, and Jonathan Samson, aged twenty-nine, who comes from one of the wealthiest business families in Seattle. He has a very tough relationship with his father who has a strong and powerful character, giving orders to his son that drains him. The two protagonists are brought together, and their forbidden relationship begins to blossom, but because of their relationship, the circumstances of culture begin to tear them apart where their lives were changed forever. There is a conflict between the two families that are so deep, but at the end, their loves wins all.
