At the Grave of Civilization?
Today our media-dominated lives are saturated with images, pictures, messages, and information. We have, seemingly, never been so well-informed. But does the insidious materialistic ideology that permeates our civilization allow us truly to understand the phenomena of our time? Taking a spiritual approach to popular culture, Sevak Gulbekian attempts to penetrate the outer physical appearance of everyday "reality, " revealing occult forces and influences. His clear and highly readable survey covers the lives of famous personalities, films, television, the music scene, and the question of race in our time.
For Good Measure
Today's leading economists weigh in with a new "dashboard" of metrics for measuring our economic and social health "What we measure affects what we do. If we focus only on material well-being—on, say, the production of goods, rather than on health, education, and the environment—we become distorted in the same way that these measures are distorted." —Joseph E. Stiglitz A consensus has emerged among key experts that our conventional economic measures are out of sync with how most people live their lives. GDP, they argue, is a poor and outmoded measure of our well-being. The global movement to move beyond GDP has attracted some of the world's leading economists, statisticians, and social...

The Lucifer Deception
In an extraordinary study that takes us from the mythical times of Atlantis to a past life in the Chinese court of the Emperor Yu the Great, through to the failing medical systems of the present day, Are Thoresen comes to some striking conclusions with relevance to us all. Having previously brought to light the reality of spiritual translocation – the movement of pathological entities that cause disease – Thoresen now reveals the roots of this phenomenon in pre-history. The corruption of healing methods, in both conventional and alternative medical fields, harks back to the introduction of the five-element system in traditional medicine. This philosophy was founded by the legendary figur...
The History of Armenia
There is a great deal of interest in the history of Armenia since its renewed independence in the 1990s and the ongoing debate about the genocide - an interest that informs the strong desire of a new generation of Armenian Americans to learn more about their heritage and has led to greater solidarity in the community. By integrating themes such as war, geopolitics, and great leaders, with the less familiar cultural themes and personal stories, this book will appeal to general readers and travellers interested in the region.
