Expect no end to the Middle Eastern conflict without a fundamental change in attitudes on both sides, says historian Daniel Pipes, an expert on the Middle East conflict.

Posted: 16-Jul-2024


Over 140 years of conflict. Over 92,000 known deaths (74,000 being military deaths). Over $12 trillion lost. And there appears to be no end yet in sight to the Arab-Israeli conflict!

Israel offers placation when attacked. However, a furious Palestine inevitably rejects Israel's placatory efforts and responds with aggression and war. It’s always been like this: fruitless cycles of conciliation vs. rejection, which has now reached a stalemate.

Will this war never end? Possibly “Yes,” concludes Middle East expert and author Daniel Pipes unless Israel and Palestine, the warring sides, embrace a fundamental change in attitudes to end the stalemate. Read Pipes’ book “Israel Victory: How Zionists Win Acceptance and Palestinians Get Liberated” to gain an in-depth history and scholarly analyses on the Arab-Israeli crisis, concluding with a practical solution to end it by the author.

Can you really become like Jesus Christ? It’s admittedly tough, but not impossible, says author John Avery!

Posted: 21-Jun-2024



Christianity is a religion loved most by some, yet hated most by others. It draws instant flak from many, but many others shower praise and blessings on it. Against this backdrop, Jesus keeps proving himself over and over again. Although he died physically, he lives in the ‘next world’, and from life experiences, countless believers like me will attest to the fact that he lives, acts, and keeps all his promises.

Although some doubt Christianity, if the Bible story is indeed true, Jesus undoubtedly stands out as a formidable character — the like of whom the world has never seen and may never see in the future! His life has inspired many to be like him. M K Gandhi, India’s ‘Father of the Nation’ once said "If Christians would really live according to the teachings of Christ, as found in the Bible, all of India would be Christian today.”

If that sounds inspiring enough, do you want to become like Jesus? It’s tough, but not impossible!! Read this book to find out how...

(Note: Though it’s an advanced book aimed at Christians, all are welcome to read it.)

Per Quantum Theory, “Everything is energy.” This is a story of two criminal organizations that seek to misuse it but fail.

Posted: 14-May-2024



According to Quantum Physics, “Everything is energy.” Objects influence one another by the energy in them. Consequently, a trained expert can alter the state of your mind by sending and/or receiving energy from and to it from theirs. Energy healers bring about soothing relief to those suffering from mental trauma, fear, anguish, prolonged abuse, etc. using their mental energy. There are possibly a lot more good things you can do for others using the “everything is energy” theory. Sadly, however, this also opens the door for malevolent minds to misuse it and influence/subjugate unsuspecting people to fulfill their evil plans.

In this sci-fi+crime+mystery story, an energy healer is trailed by two malevolent organizations that seek to do just that! They want to capture and use him as a medium to attain their evil goals. He fights them off valiantly and wins but pays a stiff price in the process.

An enjoyable alternative to John Milton’s ‘Paradise Lost’: it's poetry, short and sweet! Aimed at ordinary readers like you and me!!

Posted: 22-Apr-2024



Fascinated by John Milton’s classic ‘Paradise Lost’ but never read the story? You might initially think it’s a cakewalk — all you need is to download a free electronic copy and read it! Pretty straightforward isn’t it? Think again... The original book is overloaded with theology, philosophy, history, poetic nuances, etc. And, in addition, it’s in 17th-century English! Think you can tackle a mighty, ancient work like this? Take my advice, you can’t! And you certainly won’t enjoy the experience if you do!! So turn back...

An alternative? Read this simplified version, also written in poetry, which has similar illustrations, and retains the pith of the story intact. It’s a delightful summary of Milton’s original, in near-modern English. It will treat you to some excellent poetry and you’ll get the complete story too, without missing any detail!

The revolutionizing potential for modern Medical intervention/treatment is best known from your genes. Read about the mind-boggling possibilities created by genetics in this book!

Posted: 24-Jan-2024



Your life began as a single cell. At that very moment, inside the cell’s nucleus, your story was written by DNA molecules — genetically at least! It was written in the form of genes and contained detailed instructions on how you should be built up. Then that first cell multiplied... and multiplied... as instructed by your genes — and you were formed!! Your genes fixed your blood group, hair/eye color, gait, IQ... and everything else!

So, if you like yourself, then thank your genes! But if you don’t, blame them!! Either way, there’s no escape, your genome has scripted you forever — along with your strengths and weaknesses, vulnerabilities, predispositions to diseases, and so on.

What new opportunities open to Medicine if they know your genetic info? A lot... that’s revolutionizing. Read more about how genetics is revolutionizing Medicine from this book by SB Wade.
