The Koran, the holy scripture of Islam, records Muhammed's oral teaching delivered between the years immediately preceding the Hegira in A.D. 622 and his death in A.D. 632. This well presented text restores the traditional ordering of the Suras, enabling the reader to trace the development of the Prophet's mind from the first flush of inspiration to his later roles of warrior, politician and founder of an empire.

The Art Dealers sheds new light on what people in the business of art do, what skills they rely on, and how dealers have changed modern ideas of what art is. Major figures from the past five decades of art dealership speak out in this collection of in-depth interviews, discussing their relationships with artists and revealing the significant role dealers play in establishing artists' careers. Included are interviews with legends like Betty Parsons, who early on brought the works of Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko to the public, and Leo Castelli, who championed Roy Lichtenstein, Robert Rauschenberg, and Andy Warhol. Also having their say are more contemporary dealers such as Mary Boone and Annina Nosei, both of whom helped start the careers of Julian Schnabel and Jean Michel Basquiat. The dealers hold forth on their individual enthusiasms for art, the economics and psychology of selling art, the trends the art world has seen since World War II, and much more. The candid interviews reveal gossip, rivalries, and some closely guarded professional secrets.

"In his book, Alan Jones has made a fine contribution to the needs of the church. He has stripped away the obscurity and fearfulness of this important ministry and shown it to be basically good Christian common sense, rooted and grounded in the love of God in Christ, and enabled by the Holy Spirit to be effective. He gives us a wonderful picture of friendship in Christ as we move together through our pilgrimage... This book will be a great help to all of us, as we struggle to come more fully into the holiness of God." - The Living Church

Michael always knew that he was different, but he never knew how much until the day he discovered that he was born into a family with very special abilities. As he battles against evil, Michael, a self-declared atheist, must reconcile this evil with his own beliefs. Jonah, a family man born many years after Michael, battles the same dark, seemingly overwhelming forces -- yet with little more than his wit and his Heart. Michael and Jonah's stories are woven together into a story that stretches across the ages yet remains ageless, as we today face many of these same challenges in our own lives.
