A tense, complex, and twisting diplomatic thriller in which one woman must choose between morality and compromise—and in either case, the consequences may be deadly. Katarina “Kate” Hollister is a second-generation Foreign Service officer, recently assigned to Kyrgyzstan. She’s not there by chance. Kate is a Foreign Service brat who attended high school in the region; her uncle is the U.S. ambassador to the country, and he pulled a few strings to get her assigned to his mission. U.S.–Kyrgyz relations are at a critical juncture. U.S. authorities have been negotiating with the Kyrgyz president on the lease of a massive airbase that would significantly expand the American footprint in Central Asia and could tip the scale in “the Great Game,” the competition among Russia, China, and the United States for influence in the region. The negotiations are controversial in the United States because of the Kyrgyz regime’s abysmal human-rights record. The fate of the airbase is balanced on a razor’s edge. Amid these events, Kate’s uncle assigns her to infiltrate an underground democracy movement that has been sabotaging Kyrgyz security services and regime supporters. Washington has taken an interest in the movement, her uncle conveys, and may find it worth supporting if they understand more about the aims and leadership. And Kate has an in—many followers of the movement were high school classmates of hers. But it soon becomes clear that nothing about Kate’s mission is as it seems . . . and that she might need to lay her life on the line for what she knows is right.

Louie Giglio helps you find encouragement, hope, and strength in the midst of any valley as you reject the enemy voices of fear, rage, lust, insecurity, anxiety, despair, temptation, or defeat. Scripture is clear: the Enemy is a liar who will stop at nothing to tempt you into poor decisions and self-defeating mindsets, making you feel afraid, angry, anxious, or defeated. It is all too easy for Satan to weasel his way into a seat at the table intended for only you and your King. But you can fight back. Don't Give the Enemy a Seat at Your Table outlines the ways to overcome those lies so you can find peace and security in any challenging circumstance or situation. With the same bold, exciting approach to Scripture as employed in Goliath Must Fall and his other previous works, pastor Louie Giglio examines Psalm 23 in fresh ways, highlighting verse 5: "You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies." You can find freedom from insecurity, temptation, and defeat--if you allow Jesus, the Shepherd, to lead the battle for your mind and heart. This spiritual warfare book for those who are leery of spiritual warfare books will resonate with Louie's core Passion tribe as well as with Christians of all ages who want to live a triumphant life in God.

Projects rarely takes place as foreseen. Delay and budget overrun are the rule rather than the exemption besides the project not often yielding the expected value. Construction has long been famous for its bad performance, but these days IT-projects set a new and unprecedented standard. The world is rish in litterature on project management, systems for its control and consultant eager to assist, but seemingly witout any impact on the project's own performance But Why? Seek the Know-Why and the know-how will come by itself, says the author inspired by Japanese Shigeo Shingo, and so he does. In his book he unfolds his understanding of the project's nature and offer a new approach to its management, based on his Value-Flow-Operations theory, in an easy to read and understand - and often entertaining - form. The book is a pioneer work where the author, based upon more than fifty years' professional work with projects combines his own experience with inspiration form fields as different as hydraulics, complex systems theory, chaos, social sciences and war, along with reasearch in lean construction. Basically we have not understood the project's true nature, is his provocative hypothesis, and therefore it so often is out of control. It is the fundamental assumption that all can be planned and that the plans then can be followed, we have to give up. Plans are never followed, not because of bad planning, but because plans can never be followed in real life, is his provocative statement before proposing a lean approah to better project mangement, an approach that works!
