Excerpt from A World in Perplexity Nineteen centuries ago the Prophet of Nazareth foretold a time when there would be distress o; nations, with perplexity." when men's hearts would fail them "for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth." Today we see His words signally and strikingly fulfilled. The greatest war ever known to mankind has gripped the nations. Kings, statesmen, and whole peoples, seeing its horrors and confronted by its unsolved problems, are perplexed beyond measure. And not only so. but seeing no certain hope for the future of the world, no pilot to deliver them from the angry cross-currents of national ambitions, no way out of the dark and hopeless labyrinth in which they wander. the hearts of sober, thinking men everywhere are "failing them for fear." From thousands of trembling lips fall the questions: "What is the meaning of this breakdown of modern civilization?" "Must the world live on forever either deluged in blood or under the dark shadow of impending war" "Is there no deliverance, no hope?" To a candid consideration of this terrible situation, and to a faithful answer to the supreme question of the hour, these pages are devoted. The author is neither an alarmist nor a political propagandist, but a sober, serious thinker, who in this little volume offers to his fellow men the only possible solution of the great problem that confronts the whole world.

Excerpt from A Dilemma: A Story of Mental Perplexity Like Hamlet, our hero is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought; like him, too, he feigns insanity to carry out his subtle schemings, yet here is the vital difference: in spite of his modernity, Dr. Kerzhentsefi' harks back to the primitive for the motive of his murder. Practically he seeks revenge, while Shakespeare's hero is unquestionably the more noble (and more lovable), for he seeks justice itself. But that is another hair splitting distinction. Dr. Kerzhentset'f's forceful logic con founds not only himself, but the experts, who inevitably are bound to disagree as to the prisoner's mental status, and the big ques tion to the end remains unanswered. As it is, the experts themselves are on trial, and who will judge the experts? Aside from the fact that they are not immune from mind's direful malady and from the pitfalls of heredity, they must face a severe indictment, drawn up by the Russian author, involving the validity of their expertness. Those Who have watched the battle of alienists in a recent interesting case in the New York courts can only too willingly calcar in the unreliability of so-called expert judgment, which is divided against itself. How are we to believe a Janus-faced expertness? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

You wouldn't expect a detective with Sherlockian deductive skills to have amnesia, but Byron Constantine is hardly the detective you'd expect. London 1888 Aspiring artist Mira Blayse isn't concerned with upper-tier society or conforming to Victorian expectations-she has a murder to solve. At least, she thinks it was murder. Her parents' deaths in 1870 couldn't have been by accident, but the more she investigates, the less she seems to find. Sitting at a café, she sketches a mysterious stranger, not realizing that she's penciling in the features of the man who will help her solve the case once and for all. Byron Constantine lives day-to-day, desperately trying to hold onto his memories, only for them to slip through his fingers. Some days, he doesn't even know that he's lost four years of his life. As he manages to continue his work as a private detective, he realizes that maybe he doesn't need his memory after all. That is until he wants to remember Mira Blayse. With her keen eye for detail and his remarkable deductive skills, the two become entangled in a criminal investigation. As they uncover the secrets of the past, they must work together to stop history from repeating itself again.

Using the methodology of modern scholars in the fields of Arabic lexicography, linguistics, and psychoanalysis, Tunisian feminist scholar Olfa Youssef investigates the rulings about inheritance, marriage, and homosexuality in the Qur’anic text itself and compares them with the interpretations provided by male Muslim theologians and legal scholars from medieval times to the present. In this book, she makes five central arguments: (1) There is a discrepancy between the layered signification in the Qur’anic text itself and the sutured explanations by religious scholars which have been enacted into law in many Muslim countries today; (2) the plurality of meanings is the quintessential essence of the Qur’an as evidenced in the absence of any sura over which there was unanimous agreement among Muslim scholars; (3) when male privilege was at stake, male legal scholars, to protect their own interests, ignored the divine text and based their rulings on human consensus; (4) Muslim medieval views on gender and homosexuality were more tolerant than contemporary ones; and finally (5), preferring indetermination and perplexity over the finality and certainties found in the judgements of male theologians, Youssef argues that only God knows the Qur’an’s true meaning. Her job as a Muslim female scholar is only to raise questions over those human interpretations that many Muslim societies mistake for divine will.

Excerpt from A Strange World, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel Having come to Borcel End to perform a certain duty, Maurice. Clissold gave himself up heart and soul to the task in hand. Pleasant as it might have been to him to spend the greater part of his time in the agreeable society of Mrs. Penwyn and her guests - playing croquet on sunny afternoons, or joining in a match of billiards in the old hall, meeting the best people to be met in that part of the world, and living that smooth, smiling life, in which care seems to have no part - pleasant as this might have been, he gave it up without a sigh, and spent his days and nights strolling about the farm, or sitting by the hearth where the sick woman's presence maintained an unchanging gloom.

In this landmark work, Dr. Myles Munroe draws plans for the transformation of our society during the coming economic, political, social and cultural changes. Dr. Munroe reveals how to unlock ourselves from the prison of our present circumstances, and experience security, confidence and freedom in the uncertainty of our changing world. We must prepare ourselves for the inevitable changes we all must face. Dr. Munroe shows us that we must "rethink" our approaches and be willing to embrace new attitudes in ever-increasingly fresh ways. Seasons of Change demonstrates that the renewal of our nation and our world will not come from our present social and political system as it exists right now; it will come from deep within us.
