The Cult at the End of the World

The brave new age of postmillennium terror is awakening and its harbinger is Aum Supreme Truth: a Japan-based global web of wired, technically expert New Age zealots armed with biologial weapons, driven by an apocalyptic vision of unprecedented destruction. With compelling immediacy, this book tells the terrifying story the cult reponsible for the Tokyo subway nerve gas attack, offering a revealing profile of its founder and leader, Shoko Asahara.

Awakening Heart is about love, bliss and the miracle of life that can be experienced now. This very special book shows us the way to the centre of our being, to the source of love itself. Steering us away from the many painful human emotions that are often mistaken for love, we are taken on a journey of self-discovery. By deepening our understanding of life and using simple techniques that increase our mindfulness and inner serenity, we can all experience the 'elixir of the heart' - the rejuvenating bliss that comes from knowing our true essence. In a busy world, inner values often can be forgotten, yet within everyone's heart is a precious jewel of extraordinary beauty. Awakening Heart shows us how to release its power and transform our lives. Andrew Marshall leads workshops and longer courses on meditation and spiritual development; he also teaches t'ai chi and regularly writes articles for a wide readership. This is his second book.

Ahead of the Copenhagen conference on climate change dispatches_endgame is devoted to the environment: the follies that brought us to this brink, the small steps we can take in the attempt to mitigate disaster and the adaptions that we need to make in order to continue as a global society dependent on our natural resources. Climate change will find us whether we are in first world Arizona or third world Bangladesh. Alan Weisman pens the title piece after leaving his native, parched home state for the damper and more secure tracts of New England. In our First World comfort zone the battle for water, geography and topography is winning over technology. Seven thousand miles away in Bangladesh the battle is already lost and the nation must adapt to its new environment; it is too late for mitigation. Small inroads of change are being made with mixed success through regulation and legislation. California state s groundbreaking law, AB32, targeting lower carbon emissions is heralded but the regulating of the fishing industry has been largely unsuccessful at a time when rampant over fishing is leading to the disappearance of many species.
