An all-new Star Trek technical manual of the legendary Klingon Bird of Prey, presented in the world-renowned Haynes Manual format! The Bird-of-Prey is the classic Klingon starship—a tough raiding and scouting vessel that has served at the heart of the Klingon Defense Force for more than a hundred years. Life on board is harsh and brutal, with any sign of weakness leading to a challenge to the death. The ship itself is stripped back and lean, with everything designed for a single purpose—war. This Haynes Manual traces the origins of a Bird-of-Prey from the moment it is commissioned by one of the Great Houses and constructed at the shipyards of the Klingon Naval Academy. It then proceeds to examine General Martok’s famous ship the I.K.S. Rotarran in unprecedented detail. Featuring a stunning cutaway drawing and, for the first time ever, detailed deck plans and incredible new computer-generated artwork, the Haynes Bird-of-Prey Manual is a technical tour of the ship’s systems, from the bridge and engineering rooms to the disruptors, torpedo launcher, and the all-important cloaking device. In addition, the Manual provides a unique insight into life on board a Klingon ship and the Rotarran’s glorious history in the Dominion War. This Haynes Manual is fully authorized by CBS. All the new artwork has been designed by STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION and STAR TREK: VOYAGER’s senior illustrator Rick Sternbach, who is the world’s leading expert on STAR TREK technology, with CG renders produced by STAR TREK VFX artist Adam ‘Mojo’ Lebowitz.

Artful Mindfulness (Art & Artists' Secrets) is a timely book for a world over-run with technology. Mindfulness, taught at universities worldwide, including Oxford University (England), seeks to remind and train people to never forget the most human, feeling components in life. Sherlock Holmes famously stated, "You see, but do not observe." Like Holmes, we are better off truly considering our circumstances. Here, mindfulness is entertainingly studied from the arts.Drawing from examples in over 30 notable films, sculpture, acting, TV drama, the fine arts and circus, Ben Robinson brings forth fascinating and unusual, previously unknown stories. From Martin Sheen's dazzling performance in Apocalypse Now to the intuitive actions of Charlie Chaplin, this is exciting non-fictional, educational scholarship. An autobiographical tone captures the author's experiences on stage and in the streets as a world-class illusionist.Being mindful of our "inner voice" and noting information when it arrives gives people great advantage in commerce, life and love. Understanding the mindfulness of actors Jackie Coogan, Al Pacino and John Cazale, a deep insight is gained by the reader. Mindfulness is magical!

THE MAGICIAN: John Mulholland’s Secret Life is drawn from never-before-seen documents and many unpublished photographs. It will appeal to readers of theatre, magic and war history. It comes with a foreword by the legendary Dr. John N. Booth, who writes: "Ben Robinson has thoughtfully and beautifully synthesized the pile of personal notes and documents which is the legacy passed from John Mulholland to Milbourne Christopher, to Maurine Christopher and finally to author Robinson. No better foundation exists for learning what made John Mulholland into magic’s most influential voice in the 20th century. This book tells that story." John Mulholland (1898-1970) edited the magician’s magazine "The Sphinx" for 23 years, ending the publication to be consultant to the newly born CIA in 1953. His assignments included working with billionaires and inventors, cracking codes and delving into the clandestine world of ESP research, LSD use and the secret MK-ULTRA world headed by the notorious Dr. Sidney Gottlieb. During this period, CIA Dr. Frank Olson died the day after Thanksgiving, 1953. This book examines Mulholland’s role during this dramatic period in the CIA’s history and goes against the current trend of accusing Mulholland as having a role in Olson’s fatal fall from a hotel window. John Mulholland was “The World’s Master Magician.” He performed in forty-two countries, authored ten books and performed at the Roosevelt White house eight times. His 90-minute stage show was carried in two suitcases and included impersonations of authentic Hindu and Chinese mysteries. Theatre critics spoke about him as they did a great actor. John Mulholland was an intellectual patriot who provided an essential component of counter espionage during the Cold War’s Red Scare. THE MAGICIAN: John Mulholland’s Secret Life is the first biography of the man Dr. John N. Booth defines in his Foreword as “the most influential voice of the art of magic in the 20th century.”
