Fahrenheit Classified: Resurrection By: Tavares Rankins As the world witnesses a series of terrorist attacks on American soil, the U.S. President relies on his best Navy SEALs: Hellz, Nok, Four-Lung, Ammon, Mako and Abbadon who are Team Hellswindstaff, A.K.A The Deadly 6! Team Hellswindstaff led three missions that would wipe out the most notorious terrorist in history, crippling the Al-Qaida organization. The defeat would be bittersweet as the death of Al-Qaida gives birth to a new generation of terrorists known as I.S.I.S., an extremist group straddling the border between the countries of Iraq and Syria. The Six SEALs of Team Hellswindstaff lead three additional missions in efforts to destroy the I.S.I.S. terrorist network: Dawn of a New Era, Hells Hath No Fury and Zero Hour. Team Hellswindstaff successfully neutralized and dismantled the terror network during mission Zero Hour, but in doing so the SEALs, known as the Deadly Six, perish in a nuclear explosion at a military base located in Iran, which also destroys the I.S.I.S. terrorist organization. As the United States believes the days of terror are over, an Egyptian Cleric travels the Middle East reassembling and funding what is left of Al-Qaida, the Taliban and I.S.I.S in an attempt to be the resurrection of global terror. How will the U.S. President handle this new threat now that six of the world’s most lethal Navy SEALs have perished? Join the President during mission Fahrenheit Classified: Resurrection, as he attempts to prevent the resurrection of global terror worldwide.

"Today, once-ordinary occurrences - a ship entering a harbor, a low-flying jetliner - have taken on a sinister cast. Yet, as the creeping intrusions of the "war on terror" alter the texture of daily life, Jonathan Raban points out that homeland security remains a bemusing mixture of the politically opportunistic, the theatrical, and the potentially effective. Writing from a city vulnerable to terrorism yet suspicious of how it is being protected, he brings wit, skepticism, and mordant observation to bear on all that we are now being told to consider normal as America proceeds on its vengeful warpath."--BOOK JACKET.

Hiroshima is the story of six people—a clerk, a widowed seamstress, a physician, a Methodist minister, a young surgeon, and a German Catholic priest—who lived through the greatest single manmade disaster in history. In vivid and indelible prose, Pulitzer Prize–winner John Hersey traces the stories of these half-dozen individuals from 8:15 a.m. on August 6, 1945, when Hiroshima was destroyed by the first atomic bomb ever dropped on a city, through the hours and days that followed. Almost four decades after the original publication of this celebrated book, Hersey went back to Hiroshima in search of the people whose stories he had told, and his account of what he discovered is now the eloquent and moving final chapter of Hiroshima.

Medieval Authorship and Cultural Exchange in the Late Fifteenth Century is a multidisciplinary study of late medieval authorship and the military orders, framed as a whodunit that uncovers the anonymous author of the ‘Utrecht Chronicle of the Teutonic Order’. Through a close analysis of the Utrecht Chronicle of the Teutonic Order and its manuscripts, and by exploiting a wide range of scholarly techniques, from traditional philology and extensive codicological examinations to modern digital humanities techniques, the book argues that the recently resurfaced Vienna manuscript is actually an author’s copy, written in direct cooperation with the original author. This important assertion leads to a reinterpretation of the text, its sources and composition, authorship, and the context in which it was conceived. It allows us to associate the text with an upsurge of historiographical activities by various military orders across the continent, seemingly in response to the publication and aggressive dissemination of the account of the Siege of Rhodes by Guillaume Caoursin in 1480. Furthermore, the text can be positioned at the crossroads between different cultural spheres, ranging from the Baltic region to the Low Countries, spanning French, German, Dutch, and Latin linguistic traditions. This book will appeal to scholars and students of medieval history, as well as those interested in cultural history and the military religious orders.

Harvard psychologist and philosopher William James' The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature explores the nature of religion and, in James' observation, its divorce from science when studied academically. After publication in 1902 it quickly became a canonical text of philosophy and psychology, remaining in print through the entire century. "Scientific theories are organically conditioned just as much as religious emotions are; and if we only knew the facts intimately enough, we should doubtless see 'the liver' determining the dicta of the sturdy atheist as decisively as it does those of the Methodist under conviction anxious about his soul. When it alters in one way the blood that percolates it, we get the Methodist, when in another way, we get the atheist form of mind."
