Hitlerove tajne nauke jeste naslov prve knjige koja na jednom mestu okuplja detalje neobicnih teorija koje prate nacisticke pokusaje da osmisle novu religiju, da zasnuju novu nauku i da stvore novu ljudsku vrstu. U njihovim ocima, ti uvrnuti rituali i ratni potezi bili su samo uvod; time su na neki nacin pripremali pozornicu za iskrsnuce novog "supercoveka" - dolazece rase. Ta nova rasa, kako su se nacisti nadali, posedovala bi nadljudske fizicke moci, sto je trebalo da bude rezultat neortodoksnih naucnih istrazivanja koja su tada bila u toku.Knjiga Hitlerove tajne nauke opisuje iznenadujuce i ponekad bizarne teorije alternativnih nauka koje su u Hitlerovoj Nemackoj podignute na zvanicni neortodoksne kosmologije, ozivljena paganska verovanja, skriveni principi u arhitektonskom dizajnu, studije o potrazi rasljama, iskopavanjima, kamenim kruznicama i astronomiji, kao i prenos podzemne energije - sve je to podsticala Ahnenerbe, "Zaostavstina predaka", zapravo Himlerova SS organizacija. Sledeci trag misterioznih tradicija Manihejaca, Vitezova svetlosti, drustava Iluminata i Tuleanaca, ranijih nemackih tajnih drustava, Ahnenerbe je stremela ka tome da ozvanici stare tradicije koje su se prenosile, kako se govorilo, od vremena Stounhendza i Piramida, usput ih oblikujuci i preradujuci, sve u cilju stvaranja razarajuceg izvora moci. Autor je ponovo otkrio mnoga zaboravljena dokumenta iz tog perioda, po prvi put spajajuci elemente potrage Nemacke za podzemnim energijama zemlje. Ilustrovana materijalima iz originalnih nemackih izvora, njegova knjiga nam pruza mogucnost da zavirimo u jedan alternativni pogled na svet, koji nas sa jedne strane zadivljuje, a sa druge uzasava svojim sredstvima, ali koji je ipak postojao tokom kratkih dvanaest godina koje su izmenile svet, te tako predstavlja vazan dodatak knjizevnosti Treceg Rajha. Ova knjiga sadzi tekstove koji nikada ranije nisu objavljeni na engleskom jeziku.Mnogi citaoci ce prepoznati vezu ovog dela sa prethodnim best-selerom, pod nazivom Koplje sudbine. Verujemo da ce istrazivanja Najdzela Penika postati novi best-seler.

For most of us, life is a largely monotonous affair--an endless round of school, work, and social and family commitments, punctuated by idle chatter. But beyond this drab and uninspiring reality, there is another world altogether, a world where the contours are sharper and the colors are brighter. This is the domain described by mystics and Surrealists, esoteric poets and psychedelic voyagers. For Nigel Pennick, who has spent much of his life mapping out this hidden terrain, there is a name for it: the Eldritch World. The way that we experience the eldritch is invariably tied to the circumstances of our birth, or to what philosophers might call our being-in-the-world. The eldritch has a history and its roots run deep in the land. In Nigel Pennick's case, it manifests through the myths, folklore, and customs of his native Britain. A gentleman scholar in the Victorian style, Pennick has made a career out of documenting these fast-disappearing traditions and of working toward their revival. He is a mummer and a magician, a Pagan, and a practitioner of the traditional arts and crafts. Yet unlike many of Pennick s other writings, The Eldritch World is not about runes, or geomancy, or the ancient customs of pre-Christian Europe. The Eldritch World is a meditation on what these things mean and why Pennick has devoted his life to them. It is also a manifesto: against the soulless mediocrity of the modern world, and for a reinvigorated Spirit of Place. Presented in a fine clothbound edition, The Eldritch World is beautifully set in seventeenth-century type and illustrated throughout with eerie archival images and photographs depicting various folk traditions and beliefs.
