But what is an angel, and why do they contact us, believers and non-believers alike?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In this in-depth study into the mystery and purpose of angels, Normandi Ellis looks at the angelic dimensions of spiritual traditions around the world from the ancient past to present day. She explores well-known angels from Judeo-Christian and Islamic faiths, the Hindu Devata and Buddhist spirit beings, the neteru of ancient Egypt, the Peacock Angel of Yezidism, and the yazatas of Zoroastrianism. She compares angelic visions from medieval Christians like Thomas Aquinas and John of Damascus with what Theosophists, Kabbalists, Sufi masters, Eastern gurus, and modern mystics like Edgar Cayce have recounted about angels. She looks at dark and fallen angels and their role in the grand cosmological plan. Quoting from sacred traditions, narrative myth, and contemporary angelic encounters, including her own personal interactions with angels, the author clarifies the divergent aspects of angelic beliefs but also reveals the common points shared by all traditions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ellis shows how, in whatever guise they appear, angels are messengers. Sharing a wealth of evidence from both Western and Eastern holy texts as well as modern accounts, she explains that angels are beings of light consciousness, part of the universal life force that connects all beings. And not only are angels actively helping in our planet’s cosmic evolution, they also help us see our own place in the cosmic plan.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003e“Normandi Ellis is a masterful storyteller. She unfolds her understanding of the angelic realm not just from a profound scholarship but also from her personal perspective, and it is this rare blend that brings the subject to life for the reader. This is a wonderful and beautiful book carrying a message of hope at a forlorn time. Her words and stories uplift the spirit by showing that angelic messengers belong to all times and all traditions. This book feeds the mind with its scholarship, feeds the soul with an inspired vision of existence beyond the human sphere, and nourishes the heart with the certain knowing that angelic guidance is not limited to the past. No matter whether you come to this book from a faith tradition or from none, these words will open a window into possibility.” * Naomi Ozaniec, author of Becoming a Garment of Isis *\u003cbr\u003e“A fascinating account of angels. This comprehensive study detailing angels throughout the ages and in different traditions is engaging and incredibly uplifting. It’s a powerful book for today’s world.” * Robbie Holz, author of Angels in Waiting *\u003cbr\u003e“Normandi Ellis’s book \u003ci\u003eThe Ancient Tradition of Angels\u003c\/i\u003e is a rare pearl and a welcome and inspired addition to human consciousness of who angels are, what their purpose is, and above all the unifying nature of angels, present in the contexts of all faiths and cultures (whether they are known by that name or another). Ellis’s clarity allows for an ecumenical view of this divine assistance, ready to help all who are open to receive. The book begins with beautiful portraits from cultures around the planet, including depictions of the sacred, the divine, and the angelic. Highly recommended for angel newcomers as well as those who walk with angels already!” * Kathryn Hudson, author of Inviting Angels into Your Life *\u003cbr\u003e“Weaving a tapestry between scholarship and personal experiences, \u003ci\u003eThe\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003eAncient Tradition of Angels\u003c\/i\u003e introduces the reader to the universal concept of divine messengers, from ancient Egypt to modern times.

Normandi Ellis’s reflections about what all of these mysterious resemblances may mean is a journey through the universe of divine intervention.” * Tamra Lucid, author of Making the Ordinary Extraordinary *\u003cbr\u003e“In her extraordinarily well-documented book \u003ci\u003eThe Ancient Tradition of Angels\u003c\/i\u003e, Normandi Ellis once again shows us her skills as a wordsmith and scholar, capable of navigating the reader through the mysteries, historical foundations, and grace of angels. She opens doorways for the reader to consider this topic from every conceivable angle—mystical, esoteric, cultural, spiritual, chronicled, even within the field of physics. If angels serve the concept of God’s powerful messengers, then with this book Ellis serves the purpose of authenticating those messengers.” * Sandra Corcoran, author of Shamanic Awakening *\u003cbr\u003e“With a sense of wonder we are introduced to the worldwide history of angels in Normandi Ellis’s tour de force of storytelling informed by serious scholarship and a lifetime of revelations. A gorgeously illustrated book that will fascinate devotees of all religions.” * Ronnie Pontiac, author of American Metaphysical Religion *\u003cbr\u003e“I found Normandi’s book to be exhaustively researched, incredibly beautiful, and inspiring. What’s that—you say you don’t believe in angels?

Many would be able to agree on a list of things that fall under its umbrella - astrology, phrenology, UFOlogy, creationism, and eugenics might come to mind. But defining what makes these fields pseudo is a far more complex issue. It has proved impossible to come up with a simple criterion that enables us to differentiate pseudoscience from genuine science. Given the virulence of contemporary disputes over the denial of climate change and anti-vaccination movements - both of which display allegations of pseudoscience on all sides - there is a clear need to better understand issues of scientific demarcation.Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction explores the philosophical and historical attempts to address this problem of demarcation. This book argues that by understanding doctrines that are often seen as antithetical to science, we can learn a great deal about how science operated in the past and does today. This exploration raises several questions: How does a doctrine become demonized as pseudoscientific? Who has the authority to make these pronouncements? How is the status of science shaped by political or cultural contexts? How does pseudoscience differ from scientific fraud?Michael D. Gordin both answers these questions and guides readers along a bewildering array of marginalized doctrines, looking at parapsychology (ESP), Lysenkoism, scientific racism, and alchemy, among others, to better understand the struggle to define what science is and is not, and how the controversies have shifted over the centuries. Pseudoscience: A Very Short Introduction provides a historical tour through many of these fringe fields in order to provide tools to think deeply about scientific controversies both in the past and in our present.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003eThe book excels as an introduction to the topic....It has the potential to appeal to a wider audience... and help readers within and beyond academia to conceptualize and engage with pseudoscience in its full complexity-to think about it beyond the abstract, the moralistic, and the anecdotal.

Disputes over such facts are often amplified amid political controversies. As we''ve seen with climate change and even COVID-19, politicians rely on the perceptions of their constituents when making decisions that impact public policy. So, how do we make sure that what the public understands is accurate? In this book, Steven L. Goldman traces the public''s suspicion of scientific knowledge claims to a broad misunderstanding, reinforced by scientists themselves, of what it is that scientists know, how they know it, and how to act on the basis of it.In sixteen chapters, Goldman takes readers through the history of scientific knowledge from Plato and Aristotle, through the birth of modern science and its maturation, into a powerful force for social change to the present day. He explains how scientists have wrestled with their own understanding of what it is that they know, that theories evolve, and why the public misunderstands the reliability of scientific knowledge claims.With many examples drawn from the history of philosophy and science, the chapters illustrate an ongoing debate over how we know what we say we know and the relationship between knowledge and reality. Goldman covers a rich selection of ideas from the founders of modern science and John Locke''s response to Newton''s theories to Thomas Kuhn''s re-interpretation of scientific knowledge and the Science Wars that followed it. Goldman relates these historical disputes to current issues, underlining the important role scientists play in explaining their own research to nonscientists and the effort nonscientists must make to incorporate science into public policies. A narrative exploration of scientific knowledge, Science Wars engages with the arguments of both sides by providing thoughtful scientific, philosophical, and historical discussions on every page.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003eTo anyone seeking a lively historical tour of the problematic nature of scientific knowledge and our unending struggle to pin down what makes it so valuable, I recommend Science Wars enthusiastically. * David E.

Examining legendary cataclysms--such as the fall of Atlantis and the biblical Flood--and the mounting geological and archaeological evidence that many of these mythic catastrophes were actual events, she reveals the existence of a highly advanced global maritime culture that disappeared amid great earth changes and rising seas 14,000 to 11,500 years ago, nearly causing our species’ extinction and leaving humanity’s collective psyche deeply scarred. Tracing humanity’s reemergence after these prehistoric catastrophes, Clow explains how these events in the deep past influence our consciousness today. Guided by Carl Johan Calleman’s analysis of the Mayan Calendar, she reveals that as the Earth’s 26,000-year precessional cycle shifts, our evolution is accelerating to prepare us for a new age of harmony and peace. She explains how we are beginning a collective healing as ancient memories of prehistory awaken in our minds and release our unprocessed fear. Passed from generation to generation, this fear has been responsible for our constant expectations of apocalypse. She shows that by remembering and moving beyond the trauma of our long lost past, we bring the era of cataclysms to an end and cross the threshold into a time of extraordinary creative activity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003e“In \u003ci\u003eAwakening the Planetary Mind\u003c\/i\u003e, Barbara Hand Clow tells the story of who we really are and how we got here.

Dewhurst reveals not only that North America was once ruled by an advanced race of giants but also that the Smithsonian has been actively suppressing the physical evidence for nearly 150 years. He shows how thousands of giant skeletons have been unearthed at Mound Builder sites across the continent, only to disappear from the historical record. He examines other concealed giant discoveries, such as the giant mummies found in Spirit Cave, Nevada, wrapped in fine textiles and dating to 8000 BCE; the hundreds of red-haired bog mummies found at sinkhole \"cenotes\" on the west coast of Florida and dating to 7500 BCE; and the ruins of the giants' cities with populations in excess of 100,000 in Arizona, Oklahoma, Alabama, and Louisiana. Dewhurst shows how this suppression began shortly after the Civil War and transformed into an outright cover-up in 1879 when Major John Wesley Powell was appointed Smithsonian director, launching a strict pro-evolution, pro-Manifest Destiny agenda. He also reveals the 1920s' discovery on Catalina Island of a megalithic burial complex with 6,000 years of continuous burials and over 4,000 skeletons, including a succession of kings and queens, some more than 9 feet tall--the evidence for which is hidden in the restricted-access evidence rooms at the Smithsonian.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003e“This is the most comprehensive and level approach to the subject of giant humanoids in Earth’s past to have ever been published.

But how many Carl Sagan fans know that while the renowned scientist was at Stanford University, he produced a controversial paper, funded by a NASA research grant, that concludes ancient alien intervention may have sparked human civilisation. Author, Donald Zygutis, lays out a compelling case that points to a cover-up by the Pentagon and NASA, who may have buried it soon after it was written. How significant is the Stanford Paper? The answer may lie in another question: How would a science-backed theory and search strategy to guide the discovery of alien artifacts among our own ancient civilisations have an impact on the worldwide institutions of government, religion and culture? Recently rediscovered by the author, Sagan''s lost Stanford paper is the central theme of THE SAGAN CONSPIRACY. Ground-breaking research and paradigm-changing material challenges conventional thinking about the People''s Scientist - and maybe even origins of human society. Sagan even conceived of the likelihood that the ancient Sumerian civilisation had been visited and influenced by beings from other worlds as evidenced by ancient manuscripts, among other artifacts.As we celebrate the 20-year anniversary of Carl''s death, THE SAGAN CONSPIRACY is sure to fundamentally alter how the world thinks about extraterrestrials.  \"We assume that there exists in the galaxy a loosely integrated community of diverse civilisations, cooperating in the exploration and sampling of astronomical objects and their inhabitants....

Yet few people know anything of the beliefs of the Cathars beyond vague notions that they believed in reincarnation, were vegetarians, were somehow Gnostic, and had some relation to Mary Magdalene.     The Lost Teachings of the Cathars explores the history of this Christian dualist movement between the 12th and 14th centuries, offering a sympathetic yet critical examination of its beliefs and practices. The Cathars present a curiously self-contradictory way of thinking: on the one hand, they were inherently non-authoritarian and reliant on personal responsibility; on the other hand, they clearly felt that the collective Cathar way of life was so valuable that they would rather embrace the fires of the Inquisition or endure a fast unto death than turn Catholic. As well as investigating the Cathars’ relationship to the ancient Gnostics of the early centuries AD and the Templars, the author also addresses recent renewed interest in Catharism. Many maintain that they are reincarnated Cathars – Arthur Guirdham, a doctor and psychiatrist from the West Country, believed that he and a circle of patients had all been Cathars in previous lives. The increasing number of neo-Catharist churches and secret societies that are being set up suggests that there   are profound and illuminating lessons to be learned today from this ancient   Catharist faith.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/h2\u003eAndrew Phillip Smith is editor of The Gnostic and the author of several books on Gnosticism, esotericism and early Christianity, including the first ever dictionary of Gnosticism.

By relying on a virtual ethnography approach carried out on Italian-speaking alternative lifestyle and counter-information online communities, this book shows how the nature of personal interactions online and the construction of both personal and group identities through the development of an 'us vs. them' narrative, are central to the creation and propagation of medical misinformation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is essential reading for researchers in the social, health, and data sciences and also professionals interested in scientific communication.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/h2\u003eChapter 1.

From the very first manned flight into orbit right up to the present day there have been serious anomalies in the official narrative of the conquest of space. Bestselling author Gerhard Wisnewski dissects the history of space travel in minute detail, beginning with the first Russian missions in the early 1960s, to the final American moon project of Apollo 17 in 1972, and onwards to the American landings planned in future. Using forensic methods of investigation, he pieces together a complex jigsaw to reveal a disturbing picture of lies, falsifications and simulations. Not only does he cast serious doubt on the possibility of humans ever having landed on the moon, but he also reveals a catalogue of untruths and propaganda in the Cold War struggle for supremacy between the Soviet Union and the USA.Wisnewski produces reams of scientific evidence that calls for a reassessment of the received wisdom regarding the history of space exploration. The true story, he suggests, has a more sinister undertone. Beneath the guise of civilian space travel the US military has been developing fearsome new equipment and weapons which are being secretly stationed in space. The aim is to militarize the orbit around the earth, with our planet and each one of us as the potential targets. It is provided with over 200 illustrations.","brand":"Clairview Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48742454624599,"sku":"9781905570126","price":15.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781905570126.jpg?v=1720061460"},{"product_id":"the-bilderbergers-puppet-masters-of-power-an-investigation-into-claims-of-conspiracy-at-the-heart-of-politics-business-and-the-media-9781905570751","title":"The Bilderbergers  -  Puppet-Masters of Power?:","description":"\u003ch2\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/h2\u003eSince 1954, a discrete and select group of wealthy and powerful individuals have attended a private, yearly conference to discuss matters of their choosing. This group represents European and North American elites, as well as new talent and rising stars, from the worlds of politics, business, media, academia, the military and even royalty, and has included household names such as Margaret Thatcher, Henry Kissinger and even Prince Philip. In recent years their number have featured David Cameron, Tony Blair, Angela Merkel, Bill Clinton and David Rockefeller. These are 'the Bilderbergers', named after the hotel where their secret gatherings were first hosted. What is their purpose, why do they meet, and what do they want? Investigative writer Gerhard Wisnewski explores the numerous claims of conspiracy that swirl around the group, revealing names of participants, their agendas and their goals.  The scene opens in the sun-kissed seaside resort of Vouliagmeni, Greece, where Wisnewski attempts to observe and report on a Bilderberg conference. He soon attracts aggressive attention from police and undercover security, and it is made abundantly clear he is not welcome. From this rude introduction, Wisnewski works backwards to the founding of the Bilderbergers in 1954 by a shadowy Jesuit with secret service allegiances. Examining records and hidden reports, Wisnewski uncovers the true history of the organization, the alliances among key individuals and their common interests. Are the Bilderbergers puppet-masters, pulling strings behind the scenes? Are plans afoot to create a global government and a new political system? To what extent do they represent a clandestine super-government?

Jobs with minimum oversight or ties, the opportunity to leave the radar and that bring them into proximity with potential victims and whilst hiding in plain sight. Why also do they target certain types of victim?Through his wide knowledge of the topic honed at one of Britain's leading centres for criminological studies, Adam Lynes demonstrates how theory, practice, profiling and behaviour intertwine to identify the kind of people we should fear (and especially if we fall within certain categories of vulnerable people). The book also looks at those personality-types most likely to become serial killers.From the text: \"It is apparent that driving as a form of occupational choice is a \"popular\" form of employment for British serial murderers. In an effort to determine why this may be, [the] case studies of eight British serial murderers [in the book] demonstrate just how such an occupation can impact upon these offenders' criminal behaviour ...These findings may prove to be of benefit to scholars of serial murder, and to those who attempt to apprehend them.\" From Britain's serial killing centre of excellence.Looks in depth at eight of Britain's serial killer drivers, dealing with some of the most notorious crimes of modern times.

Bara looks the Army Ballistic Missile Agency''s proposed Project Horizon which was a study to determine the feasibility of constructing a scientific \/ military base on the Moon. On June 8, 1959, a group at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency (ABMA) produced for the U.S. Department of the Army a report entitled Project Horizon, A U.S. Army Study for the Establishment of a Lunar Military Outpost. The permanent outpost was predicted to cost $6 billion and was to become operational in December 1966 with twelve soldiers stationed at the Moon base. Wernher von Braun, head of ABMA, appointed Heinz-Hermann Koelle to head the project team at Redstone Arsenal. Their plans called for 147 early Saturn A-class rocket launches to loft spacecraft components for assembly in low Earth orbit at a spent-tank space station. A lunar landing-and-return vehicle would have shuttled up to 16 astronauts at a time to the base and back. While officially Project Horizon was scrapped by the military - or was it? Bara looks into the secret space programme, the possibility of secret bases on the Moon and many rumours surrounding the military''s secret projects in space.    The book will ask and answer many questions. Was Wernher von Braun involved in the Roswell crash investigation? Why did he suddenly become fascinated with highly advanced theoretical physics propulsion systems during the Apollo years, and why did all of this public research suddenly go black in the early 1960s? Did NASA and the Pentagon know and expect to find evidence of alien bases on the Moon? Did the Apollo 12 astronauts deliberately damage the TV cameras in order to hide their explorations of one of these bases? And much more including:What was the top secret Chapel Bell experiment on Apollo 16? Has teleportation been developed from captured alien technology and used to transport humans to secret NASA\/DOD bases on Mars? Do space shuttle videos taken in the 1990s show proof of a highly advanced secret US space fleet? Does hacker Gary Mackinnon''s discovery of defense department documents identifying non-terrestrial officers serving in space mean that the US has secret space platforms designed to fight a war with an alien race?
