Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Followers of an ancient cult threaten to overthrow the Italian government and destroy the Church.Rome is in chaos. Earthquakes shake the city. The pope is in a coma. And a Vatican scholar has been found dead in the Tiber. Detective Marco Leone is about to take a sabbatical when his estranged friend--charged with organizing the Vatican's secret archives--is murdered. Leone stays to investigate, but the killing is just the first in a series of ritual assassinations and attacks on specific churches--all of which were built over ancient chapels of the Roman god Mithras. Leone's research leads him to two American scholars who have uncovered a pair of scrolls that, if authentic, could rewrite history. While attempting to unravel the parchments' mysteries, they are drawn into a bitter feud between a scheming cardinal and a charismatic tycoon, Lucio Piso, himself bewitched by the cult of Mithras. As the deaths pile up, Leone begins to wonder if Piso is involved, and if his obsession feeds larger personal and political goals. Could the cult of a long-forgotten god topple the Italian government and bring the Church to its knees? In the tradition of The Da Vinci Code comes a thriller that dives beneath the veneer of a powerful ancient institution to explore the crumbling ruins--and the shocking secrets--that lie within. An enjoyable thriller . . . Polelle rewards readers with uncertainty in every chapter. Leone's Rome is a dangerous place with a masked attacker around virtually every corner. And that's what makes it fun to visit. --Kirkus Reviews.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. If Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay found it necessary to sell the Constitution in a series of papers published for all to see, shouldn't we engage in the same exercise for the purposes of restoring its original luster and applying it to the challenges of a modern world?

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Boy does Ms. Lawson know dogs Fantastic book for dog lovers and anyone who wants to stay in shape and lighten up their lives to boot --Richard Simmons We live in a diet-obsessed age, when we lose five pounds just to gain ten, delude ourselves that the next exercise contraption we buy from that midnight infomercial will finally take that extra inch off our thighs, and become convinced that the latest diet fad of beet soup and goat's milk will help us look good in a bikini. But now you can forget the Zone, Atkins and South Beach It turns out that the ultimate weight-loss plan is owning a dog: Man (and woman's) best friend is the fail proof personal trainer-dietician-nutritionist you've been looking for you all your life. That's just what Patti Lawson found in her dog, Sadie. A diet-obsessed, single lawyer, Patti spent the winter indulging in multiple brands of chocolate while mourning the demise of her latest relationship. Spring found her pudgy and pitiful, when Fate - and a fortuitous trip to PetSmart - brought rascally puppy Sadie into Patti's petless, pristine, if a bit sterile, life. Since that day life hasn't been the same for Patti or Sadie. A life that began together with 3:00 a.m. walks through the park, incessant barking and stolen moments of trying to eat just a crumb of breakfast without puppy-interference soon morphed into a partnership of exercise and healthy eating with the added bonus that Sadie taught Patti a thing or two about letting go and stopping to smell the roses. A memoir-cum-diet, The Dog Diet takes a tongue-in-cheek look at our obsession with weight loss and will have you laughing out loud as you recognize your own dysfunctional relationship with food. In the process you'll learn a simple and natural method for shedding unwanted pounds without the usual stress and disappointments that go along with typical dieting regimens.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Named a finalist in the Spirituality category of the 2013 Next Generation Indie Book Awards, this book aims to rescue Jesus and his teachings from Christianity. Unfortunately, Christian doctrine often misses and sometimes even subverts the penetrating insights about life articulated by Jesus. These insights touch on every important aspect of human life. They have something relevant to say about commitment, relationship, love, forgiveness, projection, anger, anxiety, self-esteem, sexuality, suffering, and death. Jesus' teachings stand on their own because they are psychologically true. They are rooted in reality, and can therefore be tested experientially. They appeal to anyone who wants to live a full and satisfying life. One does not even have to believe in God to find in these teachings a way to become fully human. The depth psychology of Carl G. Jung is used as a tool to mine the wisdom in Jesus' sayings and parables. And sound principles of biblical criticism help the reader to sift through the gospel texts and to discern between those teachings which are more likely traceable to Jesus himself and those which have their source in the Christian overlay i.e., beliefs about Jesus that arose in the early Christian communities. The authentic teachings of Jesus have the power to illumine and transform our lives right here and right now.…
