At War with China?
Western policy toward China amounts to a "cold" war that is heating up rapidly, bringing us closer to a devastating conflict. The author examines the provocations over Taiwan and the South China Sea, economic sanctions amounting to economic warfare, and the broader challenge of competing for resources in the Global South. The book also highlights examples from the US-Soviet contest to remind us how severely such misguided Western actions impact other countries who are not even direct participants in the conflict. The fact that Western leaders are largely responsible for the deterioration of relations with China is ignored by the mainstream. This book shows exactly how Western actions are add...
The Genesis of Israel and Egypt
"Resolving contradictions in accepted history, Velikovsky and Sweeney conclude that all the ancient civilizations arose simultaneously around 1100 BC.

Vrijheid, Gelijkheid en Broederschap
In Frankrijk zorgde de revolutie van 1789 voor een keerpunt in de geschiedenis, waarbij de adel en de kerk plaats moesten maken voor de burger.

The discussion is anchored in a specific context through the lives and works of John Milton and Andrew Marvell, whose complex connections with Dutch people and society are investigated. As well as turning overdue attention to neglected Dutch writers of the period, the book creates new possibilities for reading Milton and Marvell as not merely English, but European poets.
