Romance, science fiction, action, and a look at the false assumptions we make about others combine in this light-hearted, fun, and well-conceived science fiction future. Only She Can Save the World. Eighteen-year-old Jarra has a lot to prove. After being awarded one of the military’s highest honors for her role in a daring rescue attempt, she finds herself—and her Ape status—in the spotlight. Jarra is one of the unlucky few born with an immune system that cannot survive on other planets. Derided as an “ape”—a “throwback”—by the rest of the universe, she is on a mission to prove that Earth Girls are just as good as anyone else. Except now the planet she loves is under threat by what could be humanity’s first ever alien contact. Jarra’s bravery—and specialist knowledge—will once again be at the center of the maelstrom, but will the rest of the universe consider Earth worth fighting for? From the Hardcover edition.

A scientific journey into life, matter and space, this book answers questions about why we exist, who we are, if life exists outside Earth, the universe, and other truth on life and cosmology. This is a one of a kind book on Metaphysics explaining the paranormal as well as life problems with a scientific approach. The star-wars aren't all lies, and a handful of us do end up interacting with star people, especially at times of war. Earth is governed by star people and they do affect our lives in invisible ways that result in visible changes in our bodies and in the climate, the roots of which, we haven't yet correlated to the goodness and the havoc brought down from the stars. The author draws our attention to some of the burning problems affecting us, along with some suggested remedies to minimize negativity and bring positivity into our lives and on this planet. The book also talks about alternative methods of healing and shares some of the good and the bad about them. We experience our spiritual selves and the invisible realms of Earth more than we know in our cognitive reality or waking consciousness. REVIEWS" Sarita Gupta, in The Tea Leaf Reader: Earth is Ruled by Star People, seeks to bring to her readers the experiences she has been having since 2014 as a clairvoyant. After her powers awakened in 2014, she has been able to communicate with the Star People or Star Aliens as they are also known as. In this manuscript, Gupta seeks to bring a self-help book style novel to the attention of the general population who seek to know why the Earth is experiencing unprecedented events." - Aurora House, Sydney, Australia. "The book talks about new facts about Physics and extraterrestrials influence upon our lives." - Wook, Port, Portugal.

This collection of 14 stories--each a harrowing sketch of the Vietnam War and its aftermath-- offers American readers a glimpse offamiliar territory, but from an unfamiliar perspective. Often writing from a young woman's point of view, Le Minh Khue, a war veteran who served in the Youth Volunteers Brigade, uses simple, understated prose to describe numbing horrors: "There were three of us. Three girls. We lived in a cavern at the foot of a strategic hill ... Our job was to sit there. Whenever a bomb exploded, we had to run up, figure out how much earth was needed to fill the hold, count the unexploded bombs, and, if necessary, detonate them. They called us the Ground Reconnaissance Team. That title inspired in us a passion to do heroic deeds and therefore our work was not that simple." So begins the first story, "Distant Stars." Born in 1949, Le Minh Khue was no stranger to the vagaries of Land Reform politics and war. Colored by her stint as a war correspondent in Vietnam, Khue's level gaze lingers over the shambles of a war-torn country and its reconstruction to examine the soul of a people whose culture has all but been destroyed. The Stars, the Earth, the River contains an excellent introduction by the translators, grounding the stories in Le Minh Khue's personal history; the narrator of "A Day on the Road" speaks from having witnessedthe carnage of war. You simultaneously feel the rage of the author and the narrator when Khue disparagingly notes that the conversations around her center on luxuries, motor scooters, and business deals. Of what use, these stories ask, is such suffering? How can a culture honor the losses of war?

This book contains no words: instead it tells its story in the universal language of photomontage, long the favoured medium of radical artists. The author is one such, whose work has consistently questioned power structures and injustice, from his anti-nuclear works of the 1980s to his powerful works in response to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. This photo-essay in seven chapters, combining new works, made together with Tarek Salhany, with iconic images from throughout the author's 40-year career. It makes a powerful statement about the impending eco-crisis, the arms race and the injustices of the power structures dominating today's world.
