It's been a slow start to business for private detectives and former police officers Dave Slater and Norman Norman, so when the case of a young woman's disappearance arrives on their desk, they're hopeful it could be just the break they need. But it soon becomes clear that the man who reported her missing has his own secrets and motivations to hide - and with mysterious photographs, false IDs, and an unidentified body in the mortuary, a simple missing persons case becomes a tangled web involving local businessmen, undercover journalists, and conspiracies.

Everyman's Guide to the Mysteries of Agatha Christie is a reference book covering Christie's 238 stories. It provides data never before published about both important and trivial facts. Dedications, time periods, and locations have been laboriously researched, and provided with "time warp" explanations. Even trivial data such as newspapers (100 in all), pubs (95) and automobiles (136) are shown as well as each story in which they are listed. English sayings totalling 259 are shown with the book(s) in which they appear, including a brief explanation of their meaning. Yet Guide is much more than a list of facts. It is an informative reference book about Christie's writings. As well, different perspectives on many of the perplexing mysteries within her mysteries are provided. Finally, Guide is not an alphabetical list of stories or characters. Instead, it lists many entrancing "errors" of sketches and text with comments explaining where possible the reasons for their existence. Most importantly, "Guide" does not betray any book's endings nor the identity of the villain, a rule that genuine Christie devotees always try to uphold.

Have you ever wondered how it might be that God is to walk with the people of God? Have you really contemplated how that God is the all in all, in you all? Have you ever wondered how God can manifest Itself in an infinite number of places at the same time? Just as the peace of God passeth all understanding, and the love of Christ passeth knowledge, the realization of God passeth the understanding and the knowledge of the dual mind. Accordingly, the understanding and the knowledge of the dual mind must cease, as it were, before the realization of God can manifest itself as it is, not just as it might appear to be. That is, the part, as it were, must be done away in order for the whole to manifest itself The realization of God is the outcome of realizing the Christ Consciousness that dwells at the Core of all being; for we know that at the appearing of the Lord, we shall like unto the Lord, for we shall see the Lord as is, not just as the Lord might appear to be. We can now see how that the Christ dwells within all, whether it is realized or not, for to realize the Christ that dwells at the Core of all being is to realize that it has always been there. Therefore, the realization of God is the realization that God has been, is, and shall forever be right where you are, the all in all, in you all. Thus, God is ever walking with the people of God. It is a matter of realizing how that might be. Now is the time for that realization.

This book explores the relationship between art and philosophy. Andrew Benjamin argues for a reworking of the task of philosophy in terms of the centrality of ontology. It is in relation to this centrality, understood through the differences between modes of being, that art, mimesis and the avant-garde come to be presented. A fundamental part of this book is the original interpretations of important contemporary painters and their paintings: Lucian Freud's self-portraits, Francis Bacon's use of mirrors, R.B. Kitaj and Jewish identity, Anselm Kiefer and iconoclasm. Apart from painting, Benjamin considers architecture, literature and the philosophical writings of Walter Benjamin and Descartes in elaborating the various aspects of ontological difference. The theory of the avant-garde which is developed in the book, in which the avant-garde is a philosophical category rather than a historical marker, is a major contribution to art criticism. It brings the worlds of contemporary art criticism and contemporary philosophy closer together.

Prepare for the journey of your life. Literally. This book does not aim to make your life carefree, to make your problems disappear, to turn you into a saint free from blemish or blame. In fact, you may end up utterly bewildered by The Mystery Experience at times. But you will also be intrigued. Curious.Questioning. Loving. Loved. Overjoyed. Seduced out of the numbness of banality. And most importantly, awake. Gloriously awake, and full of wonder. Philosopher and author Tim Freke leads us on a journey through the nature of the 'Mystery Experience', via quantum physics, Gnosticism, the essence of Tao, meditation, Walt Whitman, Greek mythology, Buddhism, Dub Punk musician Jah Wobble, and Carl Jung. But what is the 'Mystery Experience'? You can taste it by simply focusing your attention on the mystery. But what is the mystery? The mystery is life. The mystery is the journey. The mystery is you. The mystery is me. The mystery makes you want to say, simply: WOW. No one has the answers, but asking the questions is what makes us come alive. Wherever you're coming from, you will find this journey rewarding. The only real requirement is that you're willing to wonder about life - to be curious and open - to be an explorer. Now prepare to leave base camp, because we're about to set off on a grand adventure.
